central Bank Property Subdivision
Condominiumization and Vested Rights -
Ordinance 46, Series 1993
Exemption for
Second Reading
RE:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Planning staff recommends approval and second reading
for subdivision exemption for condominiumization and vested rights
for the existing structures at the Central Bank property located
at 420 E. Main Street.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None.
COMPLIANCE WITH ASPEN AREA COMMUNITY PLAN: The AACP does not
specifically address condominiumization of buildings.
BACKGROUND/PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This CC (Commercial core) zoned
parcel contains three existing buildings. One structure houses
Central Bank, one structure is used for offices, and one structure
consists of 12 unrestricted apartments. The entire parcel is
22,500 s.f. in area. There are 21 on-site parking spaces, twelve
of which are within a gated parking lot. All spaces are signed for
bank use only.
The proposal is to create two condominium units, one encompassing
the Central Bank building and the parking lot to its west and the
second parcel encompassing the one story office building, the
apartment structure and the courtyard between the two. Please
refer to the site plan and the approximate location of the proposed
condominium boundaries, Exhibit "A".
CURRENT ISSUES: Pursuant to Section '7-1007 condominiumization of
existing developments is exempt from SUbdivision and shall be
approved by city Council. condominiumization of an existing
commercial building (SUbdivision exemption) and vested rights are,
non-discretionary actions by City Council. There are no review
standards or mitigation requirements contained within the Land Use
Code for condominiumization of commercial structures, however,
Engineering plat requirements must be met with the condominium plat
prior to recordation. Complete referral comments from the
Engineering Department are attached as Exhibit "B". Staff would
like to remind Council that revisions to the residential
./"
r"',
,'-'.
condominium regulations are forthcoming to council on October 12,
1993 for first reading.
staff is also including vested rights by ordinance for three years
pursuant to section 24-6-207 of the Municipal Code.
In staff's memo for first reading, one concern had been brought up
regarding the on-site parking. The parcel is currently non-
conforming as it relates to the required number of parking spaces.
It has been determined through research of information from the
late 1960's that parking for this property was not required by land
use regulations. Approximately 23 spaces would be required by
today's land use regulations for the commercial structures on the
property. Currently all 21 spaces on the parcel are posted for
bank use. Originally staff wanted to insure that the small office
building retain some parking spaces for its employees and patrons.
However, as condominiumization is strictly an ownership situation,
the city Attorney has clarified that Council cannot mandate through
condominiumization a division of the on-site parking, nor require
new parking to be added.
The proposed approval ordinance lists the following recommended
conditions:
1) The applicant shall agree to join any future improvement
districts which may be formed for the purpose of constructing
improvements in the public right-of-way. '
2) Prior to the sale of either unit whichever comes first, a
condominium plat must be approved by the City Engineer and
recorded by the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder. T~~S plat
shall meet the requirements of section 24-7-1004 Dl~bf the
Aspen Municipal Code as well as the comments of the
Engineering Department review memo dated August 10, 1993.
3) A Subdivision Exemption Agreement shall be submitted and filed
concurrently with the Condominium Plat.
4) All material repres;entations made by the applicant in the
application and during public meetings with the City Council
shall be adhered to and considered conditions of approval,
unless otherwise amended by other conditions.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: None are anticipated~
RECOMMENDATION: The planning Office recommends second reading and
approval of ordinance 46, 1993 for condominiumization and ves;ted
rights of the central ,Bank Property.
ALTERNATIVES: Council could alter staff's; proposed conditions
affecting the condominiumization approval.

Re: ' Central Bank Property Condo Application
Having reviewed the above referenced application and having made a site visit, the
Engineering Department has the following comments:
1. Encroachments - An encroachment license is required by the City Engineer for all
encroachments listed, but not limited to, by the surveyor on the submitted plans. This will
include the planter that extends onto the sidewalk in front of the Bank's parking lot.
2. Parking - Identify all parking spaces, all meeting the dimensional requirements of the
City Code. Parking lot gates must also be shown on plat as these are a major structure
on the property.
3. Utilities - The transformer encroachment should be converted to a utility easement.
Also, a 4' by 10' easement located somewhere on the property, perhaps on Lot Q, 'in the
parking area, is required for future use. This will allow the utility pedestals and meters
to be moved out ,of the ally right-of-way.
4. Trash - The plans do not indicate a trash storage area. The final plat must indicate a
trash storage area on the applicant's property and not in the public right-of-way.
5. Language - The final plat must have the Surveyor's Certificate contain language that
all easements and recorded encroachments indicated on title policy number , dated
_, have been shown on the plat.
Recommended Conditions of Approval
1. The applicant shall agree to join any future improvement districts which may be formed
for the purpose of constructing improvements in the public right-of-way.

requirements of Section 24-7-1004.0 of the Municipal ~ode and the comments of the
Engineering Department review memo of August 10, 1993.

Re: Central Bank Property Condominiumization Application
Dear Kim:
Please consider this letter an application for subdivision exemption approval to condomi-
niumize the Central Bank property, which is located at 420 East Main Street in the City
of Aspen (see Exhibit 1, Pre-Application Conference Summary, attached hereto).
The application is submitted pursuant to Sections 7-1003.A3. and 7-1007.A of the Land
Use Regulations by Ronald Garfield and Andrew V. Hecht, the prospective purchasers
of one of the proposed condominium units (see ExhibitZ, Title Commitment). The
owner of the property is CBI Properties, Inc. Permission for the Applicants to submit
the application on behalf of the property owner is attached as Exhibit 3. Permission for
Vann Associates to represent the Applicants is attached as Exhibit 4.
Project Site
As the accompanying improvement survey illustrates, the property consists of the east
one-half (1/2) of Lot L, all of Lots M, N, 0, P, Q, Rand S, Block 86, City and Townsite
of Aspen. The property contains approximately twenty-two thousand five hundred
(22,500) square feet of land area and is zoned CC, Commercial Core. Existing man-
made improvements to the property include the two (2) story bank building, a one (1)
story addition, the bank parking lot, and a two (2) story apartment building. A land-
scaped courtyard separates the existing buildings.
Proposed Condominiumization
The Applicants propose to divide the property into two (2) condominium units pursuant
to the provisions of the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act as amended. A
general common element will also be created. Condominium Unit #1 will consist of the
east one-half (1/2) of Lot L, all of Lots M, N, 0 and P, and the west eleven (11) feet of
Lot Q, excluding the area to be designated as the general common element. These lots
contain the existing two (2) story bank building and the parking lot. Unit #2 will consist
230 East Hopkins Avenue. Aspen, Colorado 81611 . 303/925,6958, Fax 303/920-9310

of the East nineteen (19) feet of Lot Q and all of Lots Rand S. These lots contain the
one (1) story addition and the apartment building. The general common element will be
located between the two proposed units and will provide a common access to the two
units.
Review Requirements
Pursuant to Section 7-1007.A. of the Regulations, the condominiumization of an existing
development is subject to the receipt of subdivision exemption approval from the City
Council. As no condominiumization of residential or lodge units is proposed, the
provisions of Sections 7-1007.A.1. and 2. do not apply to this application. Similarly, Sec-
tion 7-1007.B.2., which pertains to application contents, contains no requirement for the
submission of a condominium plat or declaration, and their is no general provision that
City Council approve these documents. The preparation and recordation of a condomin-
ium plat and declaration apparently need only comply with state statutes.
As the Land Use Regulations contain no specific review criteria for the condominium-
ization of land, I believe that an applicant need only comply with the general application
requirements of Section 6-202, and the subdivision exemption approval procedure
contained in Section 7-1003.B. The above notwithstanding, the Applicants will submit a
final condominium plat for review and approval by the Engineering Department follow-
ing the receipt of subdivision exemption approval from the City Council.
Should you have any questions, or require additional information, please do not hesitate
to call. As we discussed, I would appreciate it if you would schedule the application for
the August 23, 1993, City Council agenda.
Yours truly,

Re: Galena Plaza Condominiums
Dear Kim:
Enclosed for your review and comment is the proposed subdivision exemption agreement
and condominium plat for the Galena Plaza Condominiums. Please note that the
agreement memorializes the conditions of subdivision exemption approval contained in
City Council Ordinance No. 46,93. Similarly, the plat reflects the revisions requested by
Chuck Roth at our December 2, 1993, meeting. I have also enclosed a ~Q th
required encroachment license application, which has been submitte(1Q..lhe Engineeri
Department under separate cover, and an easement agreement for the existing trans,
former which encroaches unto the east half of Lot L.
As we wish to record the condominium plat and related documents in as timely manner
as possible, I would appreciate it if you review them at your earliest convenience, and
call me regarding any further revisions which the City may require. If everything is in
order, I will provide you with the executed originals for recordation purposes.
