ASPEN I PITKIN CO.
PLANNING OFFICE
APPLICATION FOR EXEMPTION
FROM SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS
Request is hereby made on behalf of Thomas H. Somers
(hereinafter referred to as "Applicant"), under Section
20-l9(a) of the Aspen, Colorado, Subdivision Regulations, for
an exemption from the definition of the term "Subdivision"
with respect to the following real property:
Lot 17
West Aspen Subdivision, Filing No.1
County of Pitkin, State of Colorado
It is submitted that the requested exemption is
appropriate. This application involves subdivision of an
existing duplex. A subdivision of one lot with a duplex on
it creates conditions whereby strict compliance with subdivi-
sion regulations would deprive the Applicant of the reasonable
use of his land. If an exemption is granted, the owners of
the property will have a common interest in the land and there
will be a condominium declaration and maintenance agreement
applicable 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 insure the proper distribution of population, to
coordinate the need for public services, and to encourage well-
planned subdivision.
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 Section 20-19.
The building is already in existence, and there will be no
change in density which is presently compatible with the
zoned density for the property. This application involves
the renovation of a single family residence into a duplex.
The renovation will be completed in November of 1979. The
-~......"
,~ "
~. .",
.
single family residence has historically been owner occupied.
There are no existing leasehold applicable to either of the
units in the duplex building and neither of such units is
suitable for low or moderate income housing as described in the
housing price guidelines adopted by the Aspen City Council.
The Affidavit of Applicant attached hereto presents evidence
that approval of this application will not reduce the supply
of low and moderate income housing.
Applicant agrees upon condominiumization approval
to restrict the rental of said duplex units to periods of not
less than six (6) successive months (or in the alternate to
not more than twice for short-term periods within any calendar
year) .
The Applicant would appreciate your consideration
of this application at your next regular meeting.
Dated:
August b
, 1979.

ically been owner-occupied. Neither of the residential units

employers who intend to rent the units to their employees.
