COMMISSIONERS I COMMENTS David White said he had heard that City Market could not sell flowers, fertilizer, etc., which was taken out by the building department. He questioned why this was being done. Alan Richman, planning office, replied that it was in violation of their approved PUD. White added that local people are now having to drive 40 to 60 miles to get their basic garden necessities to make the community beautiful. The people are very upset. I think the decision should be looked at. Richman replied that it was not a planning office matter and should be taken up with the building department. City Market had every right to ask for the ability to sell those items in their PUD, but it is not what you approved as the use for that area. Motion: Pat Fallin moved to table the Agate Court Conceptual PUD until the next regular meeting, May 21, 1985, when more commissioners can be present; white seconded. All in favor; motion carried. OLD BUSINESS RESOLUTION - PRIVATELY INITIATED SCI CODE AMENDMENT Richman told the commission that he had addressed the points made at the last meeting in resolution i85-9. Specifically, the action that artists studios fit the intention of the zone, but that accessory dwelling units will be reviewed on a case by case basis. In addition, the resolution addresses the questions raised by the applicants regarding P&Z'S recognition that the conditional use permits can transfer from owner to owner provided the space allotments remain the same. The planning office recommends approval of this resolution so that the ordinance adoption process can begin. Anderson asked for comments. Gideon Kaufman, applicants attorney, asked what would determine the applicants space allotments. Richman replied the only time it would come up would be if a constr- 1 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MAY 7. 1985 "- uction permit was needed to alter the unit. The building department would be the entity that would inform the commission that there was a change. If there is no physical change to the unit then the issue would not come up. Motion: Ramona Markalunas moved to approve Resolution 85-9, recommending to Counc il a code amendment to add "Arti sts I Studios" as a permitted use in the SCI zone; seconded by Pat Fallin. All in favor; motion carried. RESOLUTION - ASPEN MOUNTAIN POD PRRr.IMINARY SUBMISSION Alan Richman explained Resolution 85-8, outlining the new service area and that the commission supported the 1200 additional square feet to cover that area. Secondly, the landscaping and tree removal program and that the Parks Director will continue to be the enforcement agent. '."... John Doremus asked at the last meeting, April 30, 1985, that some minor changes in Resolutions 85-1 and 85-6 be confirmed. They would like for the Resolutions to reflect all of the changes that the commission approved at that meeting. The conditions were outlined in a letter to the commission from John Doremus and Joe Wells. Richman said, given the authority, the language in the letter can be worked into the resolutions. Anderson asked for comments. Motion: David White moved to accept Resolution i85-8 and the changes to Resolution i85-l and Resolution i85-6 outlined in the letter from the appl icants; Pat Fallin seconded. Wel ton Anderson abstained, all in favor; motion carried. NEW BUSINESS SHADOH MOUNTAIN LODGE - RESUBDIVISION/CONDI'UONAL USE PUBLIC HEARING Richman explained the applicants intentions, to convert 6 studio units into 4 one-bedroom units. The total project is 12 units, 11 are presently studios and 1 three bed-room unit. There is also an office lobby and 2 employee units. The request will result in a 2 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS REGULAR MEETING PLANIIiIING AND ZONING COMMISSION MAY 7. 1985 smaller number of units, from 12 down to 10, although there is an actual increase in the maximum occupancy. This results from the fact that 6 studios have a 2 person maximum occupancy, the 4 one-bedrooms will have a 4 person maximum occupancy. There will actually be a potential for 16 people to stay in the 4 one-bedroom units where there is a potential now for 12 people to stay in the 6 studio units. I don't see that as an important impact associated with this proposal and don't think it will have any negative impacts on the neighborhood. Richman added that this reduction will bring the project into performance in terms of parking. The proposal is a reasonable one in terms of the project being more marketable and desireable. We are recommending approval of subdivision exception which would resubdivide the 6 studio units in to 4 one-bedroom units. Boone Schwitzer, representing Shadow Mountain Realty, said in the past winter quite a few people looked at the project, however, their comments were that they liked the concept but the units were too small. Due to this we lost a lot of sales. We would like to give them what they want. Motion: David White moved to accept the planning office recommendation to recommend to council approval of a subdivision exception for the resubdivision of the six (6) studio units at the Shadow Mountain Lodge at Aspen into four (4) one-bedroom units and that the lodge be re-condominiumized in the new unit mix with conditions 1 through 4 as stated; seconded by Pat Fallin. All in favor; motion carried. Tom Baker, planning office, distributed the working paper for the open space element to the commission for their review. A work session was scheduled for May 14, 1985. BECK LOT SPLIT Alan Richman, planning office, reviewed the applicants request. He told the commission that this would be scheduled for a public hearing before Council on May 28, 1985. P&Z is being asked to deal with this matter because prior similar cases brought before Council have been asked for P&Z recommendation. The plans were reviewed. Gideon Kaufman, applicants attorney, reviewed the history of the 3 REGULAR MEETING RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MAY 7. 1985 lot for the commission. He stated that when the applicant bought the property it was separate lots, then in 1974 it was merged into one lot. Welton asked if there were any questions. There were none. Motion: Pat Fallin moved to recommend approval of the subdivision exception per Section 20-19 for the purpose of a lot split and a GMP exemption per Section 24-ll.2 (d) for the construction of a singl e-f amily house on the newly formed lot with the condi tions noted on the planning office memo dated May 7, 1985; Ramona Markalunas seconded. All in favor; motion carried. The meeting was adjourned at 5:30 p.m. c/~u)~k:C Kim Wilhoit, Deputy City Clerk 4
