MEMORANDUM

Chris Bendon, City of Aspen Plannmg Department\)N~
FROM:
RE:
Porath Minor Amendment
DATE:
March 30, 1999
The City Planning Department reviewed this application and has the following
comments:
· The proposed building envelope amendment allows for more gradual final grading
which will better accommodate revegetation and for rock retaining walls which are
preferred over concrete structures.
· The proposed access easement appears to be in an appropriate location given the site's
topography. A recommendation from the County Engineer concerning sight distances
should be'sought.
· The City placed conditions upon the service of treated water which pertain to the
site's exterior aesthetics. Please refer to City Council Ordinance No.4, Series of
1999, attached.

LIPKIN WARNER DESIGN & PLANNING, LLC 23400 Two Rivers Rd. # 44 . P.O. Box 2239 T 970927.8473
Basalt, Colorado 81621 F 970 927.8487
Date: 3 March, 1999
Project: Porath minor amendment to a development permit
Location: North Spruce St, North of Williams Ranch
To whom it may concern:
Arnold & Anne Porath, owners of this property, respectfully request an amendment to the approved 1041
Hazard Review,
1. Weare asking to expand the location of the existing building envelope and to extend the location of the
access easement. The building has been designed in an attempt to minimize the impact to its site and its
visual impact to the Town of Aspen. The amount of cut and fill grading has been distributed equally
between the southwest and the northeast side of the residence. By allowing the applicant to push the site
grading into the existing envelope we would reduce the amount and height of site retaining walls
required. The new revegetated grade will taper back into the existing grade at a much more gradual slope
than would be possible with the existing building envelope. In all areas ofthe proposed building
envelope, existing grade would not be altered by more than 30 inches.
~(j'
2. We are also seeking an amendment to the access easement. The existing easement would require a deep
v1'oad cut, with extensive site retaining walls, and creates a driveway with a slope of greater than 10
percent. This steep driveway would create a hazard to both the owners entering onto North Spruce St. as
well as other vehicles traveling along the street. Sight lines would be greatly reduced by the cut required
to access the street, and the possibility of vehicles sliding off of the road and down the driveway in
winter months is also a concern. We propose extending the access easement to below the curve
(southwest from its current location). The driveway would connect to the road at the curve and on the
existing grade. This would afford sight lines both up and down the road and eliminate the need for
extensive site retaining walls. ..............
The amendment complies with all conditions provided for in Section 3-200-080: The development remains
residential and remains consistent with the action taken in the 1041 hazard review. The proposed amendment
does not change the basic character of the approved use of land nor its basic visual appearance. It does not
increase off-site impacts in the surrounding neighborhood, endanger the public health, safety or welfare. It
does not violate any land use code standard. The change does not increase the need for on-site parking or
utilities and doesn't affect affordable housing. Floor area is not increased and open space is not decreased by
the proposed amendment.
We have tried to design a residence that is both sensitive to the existing topography and provides for the ___
landscape to return to its existing state. By granting this amendment, the project as a whole will confonn
better to the intent of the 1041 hazard review.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
14 ;L6 /i

Porath Water Service Agreement Amendment 2nd Reading - Public Hearing
Ordinance No.4, Series of 1999
FROM:
RE:
DATE:
March 22, 1999
SUMMARY:
Ordinance No. 27, Series of 1998, provided municipal water service to property owners
along North Spruce Street. The language in the Ordinance required the Porath Family
Trust parcel to annex into the City of Aspen prior to any development. The reasoning
behind this provision waS to ensure the development would be in conformance with the
City's R-30 Zone District requirements, the provisions of 8040 Greenline Review, and
the Residential Design Standards.
The Porath Family Trust parcel has been reviewed and received all land use approvals
required in Pitkin County. The Pitkin County review established a building envelope and
set forth specific requirements regarding wildfire and wildlife. In addition, the owners
have agreed to develop the property in conformance with the City's development
standards, including additional provisions recommended by the City Planning
Department regarding revegetation, exterior building materials, and outdoor lighting.
The Pitkin County zoning for the parcel would allow for a house of up to 15,000 square
feet in size - completely overscaled for the size of the property and the delicate
mountainside environment. . The suggested provisions ofthe City's R-30 Zone District
would restrict the maximum FAR to 'approximately 5,140 square feet.
This property does not represent land of immediate importance for annexation.
Furthermore, the land owner has agreed to develop the property in a preferred manner
and the house size has been reduced to approximately 4, I 4 I square feet. This represents
a development 1,000 square feet below the maximum allowed with the City's R-30
zoning and far below that allowed under County zoning.
City staff believes all the concerns regarding the development of this parcel can be
adequately addressed without requiring the property be annexed into the City. The
discretion to annex the property, if and when the City does want the property within City
limits, is preserved with this revised Ordinance.
Staff recommends City Council adopt Ordinance No.4, Series of 1999.
I
MAIN ISSUES:
Ordinance 27, Series of 1998, provided water service to several properties along North
Spruce Street including this Porath property. Normally with water service extensions,
the property owner agrees to not contest annexation if the City decides to include the
property in the City limits. In this ihstance, the City required the property to be included
in the City prior to any development in order to ensure City development standards
would be followed. The primary reason for this was to lessen the development potential
of the property from the 15,000 square feet of FAR allowed under Pitkin County zoning
and to control specific development practices to preserve the visual resource of the
mountain.
The City has no immediate intentions to annex the parcel and the applicant is willing to
develop the property according to City standards. The applicant is proposing a one story
house significantly smaller than could be achieved ,even with City zoning. And, the
applicant has agreed to all recommended conditions with regard to the City's 8040 and
Ordinance 30 reviews. City Planning staff is confident that the manner in which
development is proposed is in conformance with City zoning and land use policy.
APPLICANT:
Porath Family Trust. Represented by Brooke Peterson and Lipkin-Warner Architects.
LOCATION:
North Spruce Street (no address). (See attached site map.)
ZONING:
Pitkin County Zoning: AFR-IO
Proposed City Zoning: R-30
FAR:
Allowable - 15,000 s.f., pursuant to Pitkin County zoning.
5,142::1: s.f., pursuant to City R-30 zoning.
Proposed- 4,141::1: s.f.
PREVIOUS ACTION:
City Council adopted Ordinance 2"7, Series of 1998, on July 13, 1998. The Ordinance
amended the North Spruce Street Water Service Agreement by adding the Porath
property. A copy of this Ordinance is attached as Exhibit A.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Requiring the property to be annexed into the City and rezoning the property to the R-30
Zone District would obviously ensure the property was developed according to City
development standards. This process would require annexation, rezoning, an 8040
Greenline Review, and Residential Design Standards review.
The City Planning Department believes the same goal can be acheived without requiring
the property to be within City limits. The applicant has agreed to develop using City
FAR and has incorporated the City's concerns by limiting reflective materials, cut and
2
fill, and outdoor lighting. The process of amending the Water Service Ordinance is a far
simpler process which achieves the same result as annexation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council adopt Ordinance No.4, Series of 1999, which includes
. the following conditions:
I. The Porath Family Trust property shall be developed in conformance with the FAR provisions of
the City of AS(len's R-30 Zone District regulations. The City of Aspen Zoning Officer shall
review the building plans for compliance with allowable floor area aspects of the City's R-30
Zone District, using the same inclusions and exclusions for Lot Area and Floor Area, as defined
in the City of Aspen Land Use Code, applicable to all lands in the City, except as provided for
herein.
2. The architectural development plans submitted to the City Planning Department, dated February
24, 1999, shall not require a variance from the City's Residential Design Standards. The window
FAR penalty shall not be assessed. Amendments to the architectural plans are subject to all
aspects of the City of Aspen Residential Design Standards, as amended.
3. Highly reflective materials shall not be used on the exterior of the structure, including the roof.
4. Any disturbance to the natural terrain and .areas of cut and fill shall be revegetated after
construction with native species. Any areas too steep for adequate revegetation shall incorporate
retaining walls which are of similar color to the natural soils and vegetation to visually blend into
the mountainside.
S. The existing vegetation outside the designated building envelope shall be preserved and
maintained in its natural state to the extent practical. Disturbance associated with, and incidental
to, pedestrian and vehicular access to the property is approved.
6. Any and all exterior lighting shall employ down-directional, sharp cut-off fixtures, and in no case
shall outdoor flood lights be used.
7. The Porath Family Trust is encouraged to either apply for arid construct a Caretaker Dwelling
Unit (CDU) on the property at this time or leave enough available floor area for the future
construction of a CDU.
8. All aspects of the Pitkin County 1041 Review, as amended, and all aspects of Pitkin County's
development regulations not specifically addressed in this Ordinance shall remain in effect and
shall be reviewed for compliance by the Pitkin County Community Development Department.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to adopt Ordinance 4, Series of 1999, amending the Porath Water Service
Agreement."

acres.- The..zcming on the.siteJs..pwlo'1l;nant1y..AER..1O, with a small portion of the site below

believes that the applicant, upon understanding the nature of these reviews and the limitations
which-migbtbeimposed, is agreeable to pmceeding.tbrough.the City process. Moreover, staff
has discussed annexation with the applicant and a suggested rezoning to the R-30 zone district
following annexation. The..applicant.appears.-to-agree. that the R-30 district, which would
provide for a residence of approximately 6,000 s.f., is amenable to his development interests.

upon City review and annexation prior to development.- .
Background: Although the City Planning Office is.. not listed as a referral agency in the
Hearing Officer records, County Planner Tamara Pregl sought and received a referral from
Julie Ann Woods, City DeputyDU:ector. That. referral. indicated that any development
approval should be conditioned on the applicant's receiving City review through.the 8040
