Miller Subdivision Exemption
August 16, 1979
The attached application requests subdivision exemption in order to split
five lots in the original Aspen Townsite into two separate parcels. At the
present time the five lots are improved with one single family residence. If
the subdivision exemption is approved, lots M, Nand D would become a separate
parcel containing the existing single family residence and lots P and Q would
then be available for the construction of an additional single family residence.
This application qualifies for an exemption from the Growth Management Quota
System under Section 24-1D.2(d). That section states that, "The construction of
one single family residence on a lot subdivided after the effective date of this
article where the following conditions are met:
1. The tract of land which was subdivided had a pre-existing dwelling.
2. No more than two lots were created by the subdi vi si on. "
The application was referred to the City Engineering Department which has
recommended approval of the exemption application subject to a sidewalk improve-
ment agreement being signed with the City of Aspen. The Engineering Department's
complete comments are attached for your review.
Ron Stock has reviewed the application and recommends your approval of the
subdivision exemption. At this time the Planning Dffice recommends you approve
the subdivision exemption subject to the condition that the applicant prepare and
record a subdivision exemption agreemeDlwhich wou1~ inclYg~-A_cQmmitmen~
~alk improvement and a restriction that-development of lots P and Q will be
limited to a single family residence.

RE: MILLER SUBDIVISION EXEMPTION
AFTER REVIEW OF THIS APPLICATION FROM THE SUBMITTED MATERIAL AND
A VISIT TO THE PROPERTY, I HAVE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS:
1) THE APPLICATION LETTER FROM OATES, AUSTIN, MCGRATH & JORDAN
LOCATES THE EXISTING RESIDENCE IMPROPERLY; THE RESIDENCE HAS
A SIDE YARD OF 6 FEET ON THE WEST AND WOULD HAVE APPROXI-
MATEL Y 30 FEET ON THE EAST, NOT TilE REVERSE AS STATED,
2) THE STREET IMPROVEMENTS ARE CONSTRUCTED EXCEPT FOR SIDEWALK.
I WOULD REQUEST THAT THE MILLERS ENTER INTO A SIDEWALK
IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT FOR THESE PARCELS,
3) I WISH TO POINT OUT THAT THE LEGAL DESCRIPTION FOR THIS PRO-
PERTY REQUJRES THE ADDITION OF THE WORDING "ORIGINAL ASPEN
TOWNSITE," THE REASON FOR THIS ADDITION IS THE FACT THAT
THERE ARE TWO BLOCK 35's WITHIN THE CITY OF ASPEN.
I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THIS APPLICATION BE APPROVED SUBJECT TO
A SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT BEING SIGNED WITH THE CITY OF
ASPEN.

Re: Application for Subdivision Exemption,
Lots M, N, 0, P, and Q,
Block 35,
City and Town Site of Aspen
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We represent Monte M. and Carolyn W. Miller who, by this
application, seek an exemption from the definition of a subdivision
(Section 20-19 (b), of the City Code) in connection with the proposed
split of Lots M, N, 0, P, and Q, Block 35, City and Town Site of
Aspen, into two separate parcels composed of Lots M, N, and 0 and
Lots P and Q respectively. The property is zoned R-6 residential.
An improvement survey of the property accompanies this application,
along with our check for $50.00 for the filing fee.
As you can see from the improvement survey, Lots M, N, and
o are currently improved with a single family residence. Such single
family residence is occupied by the Millers. Lots P and Q are vacant.
It should be pointed out that the wire fence indicated on the survey
has been removed.
If a split of Lots M, N, 0, P, and Q was permitted wherein
Lots M, N, and 0 became a separate parcel and Lots P and Q became a
separate parcel, each such parcel would separately meet the area and
bulk requirements imposed upon property located in an R-6 zone,
Parcel M, N, and 0 would be 9,000 square feet and have a lot
width of 90 feet. The residence located on such lot has a front yard
setback of approximately 15 feet, a side yard setback of 6 feet on the
easterly boundary and approximately 30 feet on westerly boundary, and
a rear yard setback of 15 feet.

Lots P and Q would consist of 6,000 square feet and
would have a lot width of 60 feet. Any improvements placed upon
lots P and Q would, of course, have to meet the remaining
requirements of R-6 zoning.
The Millers understand that the split of the existing
lots may constitute a subdivision under existing interpretations
of the City Code. However, the principal purpose and intent of
the subdivision laws is to accomodate orderly and planned
development. Since the lots are in the middle of the City, concerns
associated with a new division of land such as growth patterns,
geologic hazards, extensions of public services, subdivision design
standards and the like would not be involved here. Consequently,
the Millers believe that a subdivision exemption is appropriate in
this case.
The Millers' principal objective in splitting the lots
into two parcels is to enable them partially to liquid their
investment in the property and to engage in more effective estate
planning for their family.
We would also like to point out that the lot split would
be in character with the rest of the surrounding neighborhood.
Naturally, we will be happy to provide you with any further
information you might require. We would appreciate an early setting
on the planning and zoning commission agenda. Thank you for your
time and consideration.
Sincerely,
OATES, AUSTIN, McGRATH & JORDAN
