City Manager Chapman told Council KSNO offered to donate their build- ing to the city prior to the end of this year. They agreed to pay the city rent of $750 Donation to I per month to the maximum of $4,000. Chapman said if Council wants to accept the donation, city KSNO he would need a motion, and he would bring a lease back to Council. Chapman pointed out building the building would have to be moved or demolished at the beginning of building season. City Engineer McArthur said the parks department would have use for this building out at the golf course. Mayor Edel said if they would pay the city $4,000, would the city wind up with the same problem of setting it up and costing more. Ms. Butterbaugh said there is no money budgeted for this. Councilman Behrendt pointed out the space at the golf course is open space and the city keeps putting more things on it. Councilman Behrendt said he did not see that this benefitted the city a lot, and this would also preclude the P & Z decision of allowing the building at the golf course. Chapman suggested finding a use for the building and then accepting the donation and the rent money. If Council decides not to move the building, it can be demolished. Councilman Van Ness said before accepting the donation, the city should have a definite use for it. Mayor Edel said unless the staff determines a use and the P & Z goes along with it, then Council is not interested. 2. Mill Street Lighting. McArthur reminded Council they had asked for a break down on costs for lighting on Mill street on antique lights versus standard highway poles. Mill street McArthur showed the closest pole he could fine resembling what is already in the city, lighting which costs $2995 just for the pole. The antique lights are $3150 per pole, and at least 12 poles are needed. The regular aluminimum 30 foot pole cost about $738 per pole. McArthur said he had not seen the pole resembling the city's, which is made in Mexico and weighs only 100 pounds. The engineering department figures $8856 for lighting on Mill street; the antique lights would cost $39,000. The $27,000 difference would mean eliminating four streets of paving in the downtown.

ROOSEN (hereinafter referred to as "applicant") under §20-19 (a) of the Aspen, Colorado, subdivision regulations for an exemption from the definition of the term."subdivision" with respect to real property described as Lot 22, West Aspen Subdivision, Filing 1A, City of Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado. It is submitted that an exemption in this case would be appropriate. The application involves subdivision of an existing structure. A subdivision of a lot with a duplex on it creates conditions whereby strict compliance with the subdivision regu- lations would deprive the applicant of reasonable use of land. If an exemption is granted, the owner of the property will have a common interest in the land and there will be either a condominium declaration or use and occupancy agreement appli- cable to the property which will not in any way increase the land use impact of the property. An exemption in this case will not conflict with the intent and purpose of the subdivision regulations which are directed to assist the orderly, efficient and integrated development of the City of Aspen, to ensure the proper distribution of population, to coordinate the need for public services and to encourage well planned.subdivisions. u The granting of this application will not undermine the intent of the subdivision regulations, as it is.clearly within the area intended for exemption under §20-19. The building is already in existence, and there will be no change in density, which is presently in line with the desired population density for the property. A follow-up letter will be submitted con- cerning the proposed condominiumization's compliance with the new condominiumization ordinance. The applicant would appre- ciate your consideration of this application at your next regular meeting. Dated: July 13, 1979. i'�- � (�� Gideon I.

Roosen Dear Richard, i TELEPHONE AREA CODE 303 925-8166 OCT 3 0 11-179 _'4 ASPEN / P! I y+N CC). PLANNING OFFICL This letter is being submitted to address the proposed condominiumization of Bob Roosen's duplex with the condominium ordinance adopted by the City Council. The Roosen duplex is presently being rented for one thousand, four hundred forty dollars ($1,440.00) a month per side. The rent a year ago was one thousand, one hundred dollars ($1,100.00) per side. These figures greatly exceed the guidelines established for low, moderate and middle -income housing. I have talked with Ron Stock in the past, and he shares my belief that units that rent in excess of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) per month are not good candidates for classification as low, moderate and middle -income housing. If the Council requires, however, Mr. Roosen would be willing to restrict one-half (1/2) of the duplex to the present rents, subject to the increases granted by the Housing Authority. I look forward to discussing this application with you. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me. GK ch i t Ve truly yours, Gideon Kaufman - � .. - ter..
