Ladies and Gentlemen:
We represent the Crystal Palace Corporation which is the
owner of Lots 4, Sand 6 of the Independence Subdivision. The
property, which contains approximately 21,913 square feet is bounded
by Dale, East Hopkins and Park Avenues. At the June 11, 1979 City
Council meeting Council (a) adopted ordinance 31 series of 1979 which
rezoned tne property from R-lS to R-6 and (b) approved the recommen-
dation of the Planning and Zoning Commission for a subdivision exemp-
tion in connection with the creation of two larger parcels (Lots 4a
and Sa) from the three smaller lots. This was done in order to
enable the applicant to replace the existing single-family structure
with a duplex to be used for employee housing purposes. By way of
background we are enclosing a detailed staff memo prepared by Karen
Smith of the Planning Office.
The purpose of this application is to invite your reconsider-
ation of the second of the two Council actions above-described
(i.e., the subdivision exemption) as a result of Section 20-14(c)
of the City Code, which provides:
"Failure on the part of the subdivider to record the
final plat within a period of ninety (90) days follow-
ing approval by the city council shall render the plat
invalid. Reconsideration and approval of the preliminary
and final plat by the planning commission and city
council respectively will be required before its accept-
ance and recording."
i
Due to several factors beyond the control of the applicant, including
difficulty 'in locating trust deed holders for purposes of obtaining
their releases, the final plat showing the redrawn lot lines could
not be recorded and, hence, was not recorded within the time period
",~~

required under Section 20-14(e). The Agreement between the City
and the applicant setting forth the terms pertaining to the use

We are enclosing copies of the proposed subdivision plat.
Needless to say, the original mylar of the plat will have to be

We would appreciate an early setting on your agenda.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Sunny Vann, Planning Office
FROM: Jay Hammond, Engineering Office ~
DATE: May 2, 1980
RE: Crystal Palace Subdivision Exception, Lots 4,S, and 6,
Independence Subdivision
As you know, this subdivision exception was previously reviewed
and passed in conjunction with a rezoning from R-IS to R-6 a year
ago. At that time Dan McArthur wrote a memo dated April 4, 1979
outlining seven conditions for approval. The revised plat dated
April 23, 1979 includes most of the changes requested. There are
a couple items, however, requiring action on the part of the owner/
applicant that appear not to have been completed which I will re-
iterate:
1) The owner shall install a new water meter and remote meter
reading register for the existing one-story frame house located
on Lot 4A.
2) The owner shall install a new water meter and remote meter
reading register for the existing two-story frame house located
on lot SA.
3) The owner shall remove or relocate the existing wooden
fence along Park Avenue back to within the boundaries of lots
4A and SA.
4) The owner/applicant shall record the new exception plat
showing the new lot boundaries for lots 4A and SA.
The Engineering Department recommends approval of the above
subdivision exception request subject to the applicant correcting
the above conditions.

RE: Independence Rezoning and Subdivision Approval
DATE: April 16, 1980
On June 11, 1979, the Aspen City Council adopted Ordinance 31, Series of
1979, which rezoned Lots 4, 5, and 6 of the Independence Subdivision from
R-15 to R-6. In addition, the Council approved the recommendation of the
Planning and Zoning Commission for a subdivision exception in connection
with the creation of two larger parcels (Lots 4A and 5A) from the three
smaller lots. This was done in order to enable the applicant to replace
an existing single family structure with a duplex to be used for employee
housing purposes. The applicant, however, upon receipt of Council approval
for subdivision exception, failed to record the final plat within the spe-
cified time frame. Section 20-14(c) states: "Failure on the part of the
subdivider to record the final plat within a period of 90 days following
approval by the City Council shall render the plat invalid. Reconsideration
and approval of the preliminary and final plat by the Planning Commission
and City Council respectively will be required before its acceptance and
recording."
The Engineering Department has reviewed the applicant's re-submitted plat
and recommends approval subject to the applicant complying with the stipu-
lations outlined in the Department's Qemorandum dated May 2, 1980.
The Department will also require that the plat be revised to include updated
signature blocks and a surveyor's signature and seal prior to recording.
The Planning Office concurs with the Engineering Department's stipulations
and recommends approval subject to the above conditions. The Engineering
Department's memoranda are attached for your review.

Aspen Planning and Zoning Conm~ssion
FRCX1: Karen Smith, Planning Office
RE: lot 4, 5 and 6, Independence Subdivision - Subdivision Exception
DATE: April 13, 1979
As the attached letter from Bob Hughes describes, this is a request for
subdivision exception for the replatting of three lots in the Independence
Subdivision to two lots which are larger in size. Actually their request is
for subdivision exemption, however, we feel it is more appropriate that it
not, be exempted from definition of subdivision, but rather that the P and Z
recommend it be excepted from the full review procedures. Since the plat
amendments may be accomplished fairly easily and do not require the three stage
reviel~ \'lith full public hearings." .
This is concomitant \'lith a request to amend the zoning on these lots
from the current R-15 zone to R-6. That proposal was submitted over a year
ago and \'lent all the way to City Council which tabled the request pending'
the applicant's sho\'ling that indeed the units \'Iould serve an employee housing
purpose as was mentioned as justification for the request. The Council
specifically mentioned that there should be some controls similar to a PMH
type zone. Needless to say, our' regulations and guidelines for these matters
have evolved substantially since the time of the original request and the
agreement which is attached attempts to set forth stipulations \'Ihich the
applicant is \'Iilling to enter into in order to satisfy Council's concerns
'that this remain employee housing over the longer term. The Planning Office'
has worked with the applicant and expressed reservations over an earlier draft.
This draft gets closer to what we think is a realistic rental rate and time
period for duration of the employee housing restrictions. It does not. hOl'lever,
comply with the type of restrictions that we would impose if, for example, this
were to be an employee housing overlay zone. The time period ~Iould be longer
for the restrictions and the per tenancy rental rate would be 'a per square foot
rental rate instead. We remain somewhat concerned that this is a rather plush '
duplex that is being proposed and that while it serves Meed ~letcalf's employees-
very well, it will become a luxury unit once it is no longer in the employee
housing'market (no longer owned by Mr. Metcalf).
This. however, is all by \'lay of background and is not the matter that is
now up for review before the Planning and'Zoning Commission. The review of
P and Z is rather on the subject of the subdivision platting requirements.
We note that the new lots would meet the minimum square footages for duplex
lots if the property is rezoned to R-6 and any approval of the subdivision plat
should be conditioned on the rezoning taking place.
I have also attached the comments of Dan McArthur. Assistant City Engineer.
The requested plat corrections, we understand. are underway and should be
prepared for your Tuesday night meeting. With those qualifications, we would
reconunend that the aprl i cati on be excepted from the full subdi vi s ion revi e~1
procedures, that it proceed to City Council for final plat reviel.,.

We represent the crystal Palace Corporation which is the

TO: Aspen City Council
FROM: Karen Smith, Planning Office

RE: Independence Rezoning and Subdivision Approval
DATE: May 10, 1979
There are two parts of this application. The first is a followup
of the request for rezoning of Lots 4, 5 and 6 within the
Independence Subdivision on Park Avenue. This matter was before
you at a meeting on November 14, 1977, in the form of Ordinance 59,
Series of 1977. The rezoning request was to change the zoning
from R-IS to R-6, a more dense zone. It was brought by Mead Metcalf
and was for the purpose of providing housing to accommodate his
employees. The second part of this application involves a request
for subdivision approval (given successful adoption of the rezoning).
Under the subdivision request, Lots 4, Sand 6 would be consoli- '
dated and reconfigured into two lots, Lot 4A and Lot SA~
The subdivision request is a simpler matter and therefore I will
address it first, remembering, however, that the rezoning should
be approved first. The Planning and Zoning Commission" at their
meeting on April 17, recommended approval of an exception from the
full subdivision procedure and that a final plat be prepared
incorporating the City Engineer's concerns and that that plat be
forwarded to Council for final review. We anticipate comment from
the City Engineer who is still reviewing the sufficiency of the final
plat requirements. His preliminary comment has been that he has
worked closely with the applicant and believes that the' plat will be
certified ready for approval on Mohday. '
The rezoning request has a much longer history which I will sum-
marize briefly. On November 14, 1977, the City Council tabled the
ordinance accomplishing the rezoning from R-IS to R-6. As back-
ground, the Planninq Office had oriqinally recommended a~ainst the
rezoning on the grounds that additional density in the area would
aggravate the deficient circulation pattern-In the Midland/Park
Avenue area and that it would motivate adjacent property owne~s,
particularly along the river. It was generally thought that that
area was unsuitable for higher density because of flood potential
and because of the number of ponds located within that block. The
Planning Office had argued that, although the surrounding zoning
was R-6, that this part~cular block had been zoned to R-IS because
it had been platted with larger lots and because of the unique
natural characteristics previously mentioned.
The Planning and Zoning commission, however, responded to testimony
by the applicant regarding his intent to provide employee housing
and his record of having done so in the past. The P&Z felt that
the impacts that would result on the neighborhood were m'nimn~ when
contrasted with the ~ocial ben~1it of providing additional Qousin9
for employees in the high quality traditicn as has been character-
istic of Mr. Metcalf's projects. Therefore, they recommended ap-
proval to the City Council. They also felt that even if the adja-
cent properties ~ere zoned to R-6, that the effect of the floodplain
and land under water provisions of the code would result in there
not being substantial additional density anyway.
Council was also sympathetic to the employee housing aspect of the
program, but felt there was a need to enst:re the employee housing
characteristics would remain. ~t that tin:e, the City was first
exploring employee housinq DFi~e and resale restrictic,>ns but had
not settled on a definitive policy. In voting on the motion to
table, the mayor commented that what council was really trying to
do was to define a PMH R-6, not a simple R-6.

Azpcn City Council
Independence Rezoning and Subdivision Approval
May 10, 1979
The attached letter, dated February 28, 1979, from Bob Hughes,
along with the draft agreement, is the result of considerable
discussion among the applicant, the City Attorney, and myself.
The agreement proposes restrictions on a new duplex to be built
on Lot 4A. That duplex would involve three bedrooms and three
baths per unit for a total of IS44 square feet of floor area per
unit. Occupancy is limited to persons of Low, Moderate and Middle
Income as defined by the City's now defined housing income-eligi-
bility guidelines provided that Metcalf's employees have first
right of refusal to occupy the duplex. A unique proposal is then
made that second right to use is reserved for faculty and/or
students of the Aspen Music School. The rents are limited as well.
They are limited to $270/month/tenancy with the tenancies being
limited in number to six (or one per bedroom). Therefore, the
maximum rental per unit will be $810 or $1620 for the entire
duplex. This is consistent with the Middle Income Housing price
~uidelines. The applicant will also be able to raise the ren~s
2n accordance with the adopted housing price guidelines.
The duration of time during which these price and occupancy
restrictions shall apply is for a period of no less than ten years
or for as long as the applicant shall own the land, wh2ch ever
is longer. The period of effect, therefore, is longer than that
period of five years for which we have been typically conditioning
approval of condominium conversions.
These provisions have been reviewed and recommended for approval
by the City Attorney. The Planning Office has worked with the
applicant to reduce the size of the duplex from the previous
proposal of four bedrooms and four baths per unit, which we felt
was too dense for the neighborhood and too luxurious for the
ultimate date when the units would become free market units. l1e
~lso thouyht that the rental provisions in the previous proposal
we~e too high having been proposed at a higher rate per tenancy
with more tenancies allowed. While this proposal does not comply
with the r t would pertain 2f thlS were .
a roved n ov zone we do think
that it goes a long way toward meeting the concerns that Council
originally stated in November of 1977 and which the applicant has
been working on since then. While this unit will eventually become
a free market unit, it will not do so for the duration of the
Metcalf's ownership and at a minimum for ten years, regardless
of ownership. We recommend approval.
