A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT OF THE CITY OF ASPEN
DENYING VARIANCES IN CASE NUMBER 00-08 RELATING TO PROPERTY IN THE
CITY OF ASPEN WITH A STREET ADDRESS OF 517 WEST SLEEKER AND A
LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF LOT D AND % OF LOT E, BLOCK 30, ORIGINAL
ASPEN TOWNSITE
WHEREAS, Tom Bailey made application, dated June 27, 2000 for
variances from the dimensional requirements of Chapter 26 of the
Aspen Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, this matter came on for hearing before the Board of
Adjustment on August 10, 2000, and after full deliberations and
consideration of the evidence and testimony presented.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT OF
THE CITY OF ASPEN, COLORADO:
Section 1. Findings of Fact.
The Board of Adjustment makes the following findings of
fact:
1. The request for variances was initiated on June 27, 2000
by: Tom Bailey for a property located at 517 West Sleeker,
Aspen, Colorado.
2. Notice of the proposed variance has been provided to
surrounding property owners in accordance with Section 26-
304-060 (E) (3) of the Aspen Municipal Code. Evidence of such
notice is on file with the City Clerk.
,.
,
3. The grant of variance will be generally consistent with
the purposes, goals, objectives, and policies of the
Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan and Chapter 24 of the
Aspen Municipal Code.
4. The grant of variance is the minimum variance that
will make possible the reasonable use of the parcel,
building or structure.
5. The literal interpretation and enforcement of the
terms of Chapter 26 of the Aspen Municipal Code
would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed
by other parcels in the same zone district, and would
cause the applicant unnecessary hardship or practical
difficulty. In determining that the applicant's rights
would be deprived absent a variance, the Board
considered certain special conditions and circum-
stances which are unique to the parcel, building or
structure, which are not applicable to other parcels,
structures or buildings in the same zone district and
which do not result from the actions of the applicant.
The Board determined that findings #4 and #5 above were not
satisfied and the variance request was therefore denied by a
vote of
Section 2. Request for Variances Denied.
The Board of Adjustment does hereby deny the applicant an
extension of the following variance from the terms of Chapter 26
of the Aspen Municipal Code:
A one (1) foot side yard setback variance for the
east side yard, a four (4) foot combined side yard
setback variance, and a three (3) foot rear yard
setback variance for the construction of a
carport.
