WHEREAS, the City of Aspen is the owner of that parcel of
real property (and the improvements thereon) situated in the City
of Aspen, County of Pitkin, Colorado, commonly known as the "Golf
Course Property" and more particularly described on that plat
entitled "The Aspen Golf Course Subdivision" (hereinafter "Golf
Course Plat"), considered and approved by the City Council on
January 24, 1983, which plat is incorporated herein by this refer-
ence; and
WHEREAS, it has come to the attention of the City Council
that although approved in full compliance with the City of Aspen
subdivision regulations, said Golf Course Plat was not fully exe-
cuted and recorded due to a ministerial oversight on the part of
the City Engineering Department; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 20-19(c) of the Municipal Code
of the City of Aspen, the City Council may grant exceptions from
the applications of the standards or requirements of Chapter 24 of
the Municipal Code when the City Council, in its sole discretion
and judgment, deems certain requirements to be redundant, serve no
public purpose and be unnecessary in relation to the land use
pOlicies of the City of Aspen under the facts and circumstances
presented, and, notwithstanding the exception, finds that the pro-
posed subdivision will substantially comply with the design stan-
dards of Chapter 24; and
WHEREAS, in light of the record of proceedings with regard to
the approval of the Golf Course Plat, the City Council desires to
ratify its approval of the Golf Course Plat effective as of Janu-
ary 24, 1983, and to except said plat and the filing thereof from
the requirement of Section 20-14(e), requiring the filing and
recordation within ninety (90) days, and such other regulations
which would prevent the filing of the Golf Course Plat,
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Aspen, Colo-
rado, does hereby ratify and confirm its approval of said Golf
Course Plat, effective as of January 24, 1983, and does hereby
80011188 ~6E400
grant an exception from the requirements of Section 20-14(e) and
such other subdivision regulations which would prevent the filing
and recordation of said plat, on the basis that such requirements,
under the circumstances presented, would be redundant, serve no
public purpose and would be unnecessary in relation to the land
use policies of the City of Aspen, inasmuch as the proposed sub-
division substantially complies with all of the design standards
of Chapter
24 of the Municipal Code.

Ratification of Golf Course Final Plat
THRO:
FROM:
RE:
DATE:
June 17, ]985
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Planning Office recommends that City Council grant
subdivision exception for the purposes of ratifying the Golf Course
Final Plat. As part of this approval, we recommend that you except
the Plat from the limitation of Section 20-l4(e) regarding recordation
of the Plat within 90 days of its approval.
BACKGROUND: On March 22, 1982, the City Council granted Final Plat
approval to the Gold Course Subdivision. The Engineering Department
failed to record this Plat within 90 days of its approval. Therefore,
on January ~.., 1983, the City Council again granted approval to the
reconsideration of the Plat. We have now been informed that the
Engineering Department also failed to record the reconsidered Plat.
PROBLEM DISCUSSION: The reconsideration of an approved plat is a
ministerial matter since no new policy or procedural matters arise
from such actions. The City Attorney advises us that the Council can
ratify the action taken in 1983 by subdivision exception, waive the 90
day recordation requirement, since its application at this time would
be redundant and serve no public purpose [see Section 20-l9(c)] and
also waive the requirement that the plat first be presented to P&Z.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: "Move to grant subdivision exception for the
purposes of ratifying the Golf Course Final Plat, to include exception
from the requirements of Section 20-14 (e), as permitted by Section
20-l9(c)."

Dear Mr. Bibart:
Your June 7, 1985, correspondence was received by my office on
June 10.
My review of the matters set forth in your letter indicates that
the city has materially complied with the subdivision process by
City Council approvals of final plant on January 24, 1983. A
copy of the City Council minutes are enclosed for your refer-
ence. Further, it appears that Section l(B) is no longer
operative, inasmuch as Red Roof has not notified the City within
the 30-day period following eighteen months of the lease commen-
cement date, which occurred on May 23, 1983.
In the event that there may be construed to be an administrative
deficiency with regard to the subdivision issue, the City will.
pursuant to Section 19 of the lease, take immediate steps to
remedy the same.
Accordingly, the City considers the lease to be still in effect
'in all respects, and will take appropriate action to enforce Red
Roof's obligations.
Very truly yours,
~~~7'

The RMCC. finished the Ccntenntial picture first draft and has gotten positive feedback.
There is a $4500 short fall on the Centennial film project. Pouliot requested funding of
$2500 to pay bills. If they pay this bill before it becomes past due, they can use a
credit of $2,000 for a high quality color cameruo This camera is used for the summer
program, which is college accredited. Last year there were five apprentices: they are
projecting 12 for this year. The RMCC needs this equipment to make this project work.
Pouliot taid Council he has discussed with KRMA the possibility of airing the Centennial
film: this has expended beyond a local project.
Councilwoman Michael said the Council for the Arts came in regarding arts funding and the
Council set up a study session for Wednesday. Councilwoman Michael suggested returning to
Council on Wednesday at this study session. Mayor Edel said with the uncertainty of this
winter, the Council's ability to give a dollar answer on Wednesday will be very restrictiv~
Councilwoman Michael asked where the city would get the $2500. City Manager Chapman told
Council the request from the arts groups total $98,000. The money is just not in the
.Real Estate Transfer Tax. Chapman told Council the January collections were the worst
on record for the collection of the RETT. The City cannot do everything the would like to
do out of the RETT with renovation of the Wheeler, hiring an executive director and also
funding the arts groups to $100,000. Chapman said it is too early to make a commitment
out of the general fund for $100,000 for arts groups; that is a substantial amount of
money. The city depart~ents are already looking at making budget cutbacks from 2-1/2 per
cent to 10 per cent. Chapman told Council that December sales tax was good but Council
should wait at least until they see March sales tax collections before making any decision~
ill
Councilwoman .Michael said the project is a good one but if the Council cannot find money
they cannot find the money. Councilman Collins said the res'ponse to this request is what
it is to the other group, the Council has to defer their decisions until they see the
sales tax figures. Poulit stated this is a crisis for the Rl1CC; unfortunate,ly, their
crisis is happening at the same time as the Council's crisis. Mayor Edel agreed with
Council they cannot make a decision tonight; the Council will have to wait until the work
session with the arts groups on Wednesday. Pouliot said if the Council makes a decision
Wednesday it would help them. Pouliot pointed out if they get this money, they will
accept this as half their request and cancel the rest. Pouliot pointed out to Council
it has only been two years they have been funding arts groups out of the RETT; it was the
understanding the renovation of the Wheeler was first priority and the funding of the
arts groups is out of the overage. Pouliot told Council the arts groups spend a budget
of $7,000,000; the percentage of money spent in the community comes to $250,000 taxes
generated. Pouliot said the arts groups are helping in'their second industry to help
fill the sales tax coffers.

ORDINANCES 1, 2, 3~ SERIES OF 1982 - Aspen Mountain Park SPA and Pitkin Reserve Zoning
o
Alan Richman told Council these are second readings and public hearings on the ordinances
that adopt the SPA for Smuggler trailer park; disconnecting 0.41 acres from the city; and
zoning Pitkin Reserve R-30/PUD. Richman reminded Council these were tabled at the last
meeting because staff was still working with the applicants on the subdivision agreements
and final plats. Richman said the staff is comfortable the issues are solved. The
staff recommends approving these ordinances on second reading. Mayor Edel said if all
Council's concerns have been incorporated. City Attorney Taddune told Council he has
gone over the agreements n~ney times and feels that all Council1s concerns have been
addressed. There have been some very minor details and language changes. Taddune pointed
out one change is what level the caretaker unit at Pitkin Reserve will be and how that
will affect the park dedication fee. It was agreed the caretaker unit will be low or
moderate; if it is middle, the applicant will inform the city and they will pay a park
dedication fee. Councilman Parry asked if there is a time limit for the improvement to
the trailer park. Richman said the agreement suggests beginning in May and ending in
August.
Mayor Edel opened the public hearing on Ordinance tl, Series of 1982. There were no
comments. Mayor Edel closed the public hearing.
Councilman. Parry moved to adopt Ordinance '1, Series of 1982, on second reading~ seconded
by Councilwoman Michael.
Brooke Peterson, as public and co-applicant, addressed Council on three items. The first
is a transfer fee on sale of units subsequent to this agreement was to be one-half (1/2)
of one per cent (1%) \o,'as to be a topset figure, not necessarily what it has to be. Taddu':
told Council in those cases where the housing office has to qualify rentors or purchaser::
there is in the agreement a percentage of the first months' rent or the sales price.
Bob Hughes said the concern is that percentage is the maximum fee that could be charged
but not necessarily tlle fee that is going to be charged. Peterson asked that the fce
not be an absol ute onc-ha I f (1/2) of one per cent (l %) jus t a maximum. Chapman sa id thi;,
could be worked out among staff and the applicants.

Jim Holland explained that the golf pro resigned early in the year and he and Ted Armstrong
have been trying to put together a solution to operate a pro shop. It was too late to
advertise and get a pro. Holland and Armstrong have worked on an interim solution for
this summer. Holland and Armstrong circulated a proposal to all sports stores in the
area to run the pro shop for the summer. There was one response from the Sports Stalker.
Mooney's assistant, Scott Cain, will be the PGA pro for the summer. Holland told Council
the programs that Mooney established will be continued. Chapman said the interview
process would be set up with the golf associations. Chapman said the city will not get
5 per cent of the golf cart rental; however, the city will not have to supply the gas,
last year the city lost money on that. Armstrong requested in the future when the staff
needs to negotiate things like this, the staff could work directly with the city manager
and not burden Council.

Mayor E4el opened the pUblic hearing. There were no comments. Mayor Edel closed the
pUblic hearing.
Councilman Parry moved to adopt Ordinance .69, Series of 1982~ seconded by Councilman
Knecht.
Councilman Knecht asked when the plans would be ready. city Manager Chapman said he
expected to get them in January. Cou~cilman Knecht said he would like review process for
Council. Councilman Knecht said he would like the landscaping at the parks department
and along highway 82 incorporated into these plans. Chapman said the city does not have
a funding co~nitment for doing that landscaping. Chapman said it doesn't take much money
for a plan: this landscaping can be funded through an overal: capital improvements program.

ORDINANCE !77, SERIES OF 1983 - Campaign Expenditures
Monroe Summers said if Council passes this ordinance, they should delete any reference
to the election question of Rubey Park because it is not relevant at this point. Bil
Dunaway said there is only one ballot question, and it is being presented by the citizens
and not the City and tax monies should not be spent on the election. Councilman Knecht
agreed it is the responsibility of the resort association to push their question. Mayor
Eclcl agreed that in promoting a question, the city should not take part in. Education
of the electorate is another thing. Councilman Knecht suggested that the proponents go
to the League of Women Voters for promotion for this issue.

RUBEY PARK VISITOR CENTER PUBLIC REVIEW PROCESS
Monroe Summers reminded Council he had brought this resolution to them in December and
their wishes were that the project hsould be sufficiently through the review process in

Council the updated plans make significant adjustment to the issues. Summers said he
cannot get to P & Z before February 1, and requested that the election question be post-
poned. 0

FROM:
Alan Richman
RE:
Reconsideration of Golf Course Final Plat
DATE:
January 17, 1983
/D
Approved as to form /~L~
Introduction
Late in 1982 the Planning Office was notified by the Engineering
Department that they had failed to record the plat for the Golf
Course Subdivision (approved by City Council on March 22, 1982)
within the 90 days after its final approval by City Council.
According to Section 20-14(e) of the Municipal Code, failure on
the part of the subdivider to record the plat within 90 days of
its approval renders the plat invalid and requires reconsideration
and approval of the preliminary and final plat by P&Z and Council,
respectively.
Review Process
Typically, the reconsideration and approval of a previously
approved plat would be a simple matter, since all of the necessary
reviews have already taken place. However, as you are aware,
when we brought the plat back to P&Z for its reconsideration on
October 19, 1982, the item became a matter of some controversy.
P&Z used the review opportunity to comment to you on the location
of the pro shop and to request your designation of the Golf Course
as a PUD. They indicated their willingness to approve the pre-
liminary plat at such time as Council moved to initiate the PUD
rezoning. Theyalso asked that you not take action on the final
plat until such time as an actual PUD submission was made to the
Planning Office.
The P&Z approved the reconsideration of the Golf Course Preliminary
Plat on November 2 after you initiated the PUD rezoning. This
rezoning was completed by the adoption of Ordinance 69, Series of
1982 on December 27. Subsequently, on January 10, 1983, you were
presented a conceptual PUD plan for the Red Roof Inn/Pro Shop/
parking lot area to which you gave your unanimous support. We
were given the remainder of the PUD submission by the Engineering
Department on the same date which completes the submission re-
quirements to permit review of the proposal by P&Z. We anticipate
P&Z review of this item in February or March.
Since the PUD is now a complete submission, we feel comfortable
bringing forward to you the reconsideration of the final plat,
There are no conditions to be attached to the approval of this
item since no review agency had any negative comments whatsoever
as regards its reconsideration.
Council Motion
"Move to grant approval to the reconsideration of the Golf Course
Final Plat."

RE: Addition of PUD to Golf Course Zoning
DATE:
December 27, 1982
APPROVED AS TO FORM: ~..:L .h~
At a meeting last month we informed you that P&Z had given Preliminary Plat
approval to the reconsideration of the Golf Course Subdivision. As part of
their approval they asked you to add a PUD designation to the zoning at the
Golf Course and to withhold your action on the Final Plat until such time that
a PUD submission has been made to the Planning Office. You agreed to these
conditions and gave first reading approval to Ordinance 69 at your meeting on
November 22 which adds the PUD designation. Therefore, to finalize this
action tonight you need only grant second reading approval to Ordinance 69.
We should be returning to you with the Golf Course Final Plat in the near
future as progress is being made by the Engineering and Parks Departments
in developing a PUD submission for the P&Z.
The appropriate motion on this item is as follows:
"Move to adopt Ordinance 69, Series of 1982."

FROM: Alan Richman, Planning Office
RE: Reconsideration of Golf Course Q
DATE: November 22, 1982
At a meeting last month it was brought to your attention that the As en Pla
and Zoning Commission was reconsidering the Golf Course Prelimina Plat du to
the fact the the originally approved plat had not been recorded within 90 days.
At that time, P & Z had indicated that it would withold action on the plat until
such time as you had initiated a rezoning of the property, to place a "PUD"
designation on the subdivision, and until you considered whether or not to move
the pro shop. At your meeting on October 26 you unanimously agreed to initiate
the rezoning but not to move the pro shop.
Based on the signal you gave P & Z, they approved the Golf Course Preliminary
Plat on November 2. P & Z set two conditions on their approval, these being
that Council add a PUD designation to the property and that the City would
submit a PUD plan identifying the existing improvements and short-term development
plans at the Golf Course before final approval is given to the Golf Course
Subdivision Final Plat. The intent of P & Z in setting this condition was that
they might have an opportunity to comment upon the landscaping and other final
site design activities which will take place in the near future. It wasnot
the intent of P & Z to continue to pursue the recommendation that the pro shop
be moved.
I have discussed this matter with the City Manager who informed me that he sees
no problem in complying with P & Z's condition as long as it does not delay the
final approval of the subdivision plat beyond the terms set out in the lease with
Red Roof Inns. Wayne suggested that it would have been necessary anyway to do
a landscape plan and I added that our subdivision materials need only slight
modification to meet the requirements of the PUD. Since it should not take too
long for us to put together a PUD submission and since we have 18 months from
the date of the approval of the Red Roof Inns lease to obtain subdivision approval
(approved on November 23, 1981, meaning that we have until May 23, 1983 to
get final approval) there should be no problem in meeting P & Z's condition.
Based on the foregoing discussion, the Planning Office recommends that you approve
the attached ordinance, on first reading, adding a PUD designation to the Golf
Course. Staff will move ahead with the preparation of a PUD submission and will
return to you at such time as the submission has been made to obtain final plat
approval for the Golf Course Subdivision. Should you concur with this approach,
the appropriate motion is as follows:
"Move to read Ordinance 6$-, Series of 1982."
"Move to approve, on fi rs t readi ng, Ordi nance 4' Series of 1982."

RE:
Golf Course Final Plat and PUD
DATE:
November 24, 1982
At recent meetings of P&Z and City Council concerning the Golf
Course Subdivision, the subject property has been rezoned to
add a PUD to the other existing zone designations. Coucil has
agreed that it will not consider the Golf Course Final Plat
until such time as a PUD submission is made for the Golf Course.
The purpose of the PUD is twofold:
1. To identify all of the exisitng improvements on the entire
Golf Course, including lots 1 & 2 of the subdivision.
2. To provide P&Z with the ability to review the plans for
landscaping and access in the vicinity of the Red Roof Inn
and parking lot.
While you were away, a meeting was held with myself, Wayne, Jim
Holland and Paul to discuss the PUD submission. The following
conclusions were reached at the meeting:
1. Jim will hire a landscape architect to provide a rendering
of the landscaping and access to the pro shop and parking lot
and landscaping of the corner of Cemetary Lane and Highway 82.
2. The subdivision plat should be updated to include the pro
shop abd golf cart maintenance buildings, as well as the
Parks Department buildings and any other improvements on the
property. This update should be the responsibility of
the Engineering Department and should meet the standards for
conceptual PUD.
3. The Planning Office sees no reason that the PUD submission
could not be exempted from mandatory PUD review at P&Z,
meaning that the process will end following P&Z conceptual
review. Therefore, the submission should contain adequate
information to address all potential issues which might be
raised by P&Z or which are required by the zoning code.
Based on our lease obligations with the Red Roof Inn, it is
essential that a PUD submission be made as soon as possible. Wayne
set March 1st as an absolute final date for such an application,
although we hope to have a complete submission well in advance of
this date. I suggest that you talk to Jim about when he expects
to have a complete rendering and try to aim for the same time frame
for your work. Please also let me know if any additional infor-
mation needs to be put on the final subdivision plat before it
goes to Council so that when the PUD is ready there are no addi-
tional hitches prior to obtaining final plat approval.
Don't hesitate to call myself, Jim or Wayne if you need further
guidance.

MEMORANDUM

FROM: Alan Richman, Planning Office
RE: Reconsideration of Golf Course Subdivision
DATE: October 26, 1982
Attached is a copy of the resolution you adopted unanimously at your last
meeting concerning the reconsideration of the Golf Course Subdivision and
the location of the pro shop building. I took this resolution forward to
Council at their meeting on October 25, at which time they unanimously made
the following decisions:
1. They agreed to initiate the zoning action to place a mandatory PUD
designation on the property.
2. They agreed to consider the possibility of adopting the 200 foot
setback from Highway 82 at the entrances into Aspen.
3. They refused to permit the moving of the pro shop building. Council
was presented with a likely cost of about $50,000 - $60,000 to
move the building, including a new foundation and utilities. It
was determined that taxpayer money would be better spent in land-
scaping the pro shop and improving the parking lot. The City
Manager has indicated to me that he would like to involve you in
the plans for landscaping this facility and welcomes your comments
in this regard.
The Planning Office believes that City Council has provided you with the signal
you are looking for regarding any future actions which may take place on this
important piece of public property. Furthermore, information obtained from the
City Attorney indicates that the City is subject to substantial financial
penalties within the terms of the lease with the Red Roof Inn if we are unable
to comply with our own subdivision regulations. Therefore, we strongly
recommend that you grant approval to the reconsideration of the Golf Course
Subdivision and recommend that City Council add a mandatory PUD designation to
this property as part of its review of the subdivision.

RESOLUTION OF THE ASPEN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
CONCERNING THE RECONSIDERATION OF HIE GOLF COURSE SUBDIVISION
AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PRO SHOP ADJACENT TO HIGHWAY 82
Resolution No. 82 - 13
'~EAS, as a result of the failure to record the Golf Course Subdivision
Plat within 90 days after its final approval, the City of Aspen has found it
necessary to resubmit the Golf Course Subdivision Preliminary Plat for considera-

recommendation that the Golf Course Support Overlay zone district have its
area and bulk requirements set by PUD review, and

act upon the Golf Course Subdivision Preliminary Plat until such time as this
property has been designated as a mandatory PUD area, which will provide a
review mechanism to evaluate the location of the pro shop.

P & Z Recommendation Re: Pro Shop
DATE:
October 20, 1982
APPROVED AS TO FORM:
The Planning Office has requested a slot on your agenda to provide you with
some information regarding a P & Z recommendation concerning the Golf Course
Pro Shop. The action by P & Z was a result of two separate circumstances:
1. The failure to record the previously approved Golf Course Subdivision
Plat within the required time resulting in the need to reconsider
the preliminary and final plat by P & Z and Council, respectively.
2. The concern of P & Z that the Pro Shop is being built adjacent to
Highway 82 and that this location was not reviewed by P & Z prior
to its construction.
P & Z unanimously adopted the attached Resolution 82-13 at their meeting on
October 19, which contains the following recommendations to you:
1. P & Z requests that you initiate a rezoning of the Golf Course
property to add a PUD designation to the existing Park and Golf
Course Support zone districts.
2. P & Z indicates to you its intent to recommend that as a result of
pun review the Pro Shop building be moved.
3. P & Z suggests that it would be appropriate for the City of Aspen
to adopt the Pitkin County land use policy concerning the 200 foot
setback from Highway 82.
P & Z also tabled action on the Golf Course Subdivision Preliminary Plat pending
a rezoning of the property to pun. I have referred this matter to the City
Attorney's office to determine if this delay has any effect upon your lease
agreement with the Red Roof Inn.
I have also included in this packet of information a memo we sent to P & Z
which traced the history of the prior approval of the Golf Course Subdivision
and Golf Course Support Overlay zone district. A memo from Wayne providing
his recollection of this process is also included.
The Planning Office is bringing this item to your attention on short notice
so that you can minimize the time delay associated with the Golf Course Subdi-
vision. We recommend that you initiate a rezoning of the property to add a
PUD designation to the existing Park and Golf Course Support zones. Should
you concur with this recommendation, the appropriate motion is as follows:
"Move to initiate a rezoning of the Golf Course to add a PUD designation
to the existing Park and Golf Course Support zones."

GENERAL
The ar.chitectur.al concept guiding the r.enovation hleasur.es pr.oposed
for. the Plum Tr.ee Inn is based on cr.eatin':j a quality lodging and
r.,ecr.eational exper. ience by a complete upgrad ing of both the phys i-.
cal and oper.ational aspects of the existing facility and its
r.elated site amenities,
Because the site location of the Plum Tree complex constitutes it
as one of, the impor.tant physical definitions of "entry" to Aspen
as well as being central to one of Aspen's most impor.tant r.ecr.ea-
tional assets, we feel the low under.stated building form should be
retained and tur.ned to advantage by the. enr.ichment of its ar.chi-
tectural sur.faces with natural Hlater.ials and detailin':J sympathetic
to both the site and the way the building should be per.ceived and
used at all scales of refer.ence,
Add itionally impor.tant to the des ign concept is the creation of
passive outdoor spaces completely separated fr.om vehicular move-
ment that both functionally relate to the public services of the
lodye and encourage the interaction of people and mor.e passive
activ ities on an infor.mal bas is, [;s depicted in Exhib it" E" this
is accomplished and defined architecturally by tne aOQltlon of a

TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
The Pitkin County Planning and Zoning Commission, by a unanimous
action of 9 regular and alternate members attending its meeting
on October 19, 1982, wishes to go on record with the following
statement regarding the Pro Shop at the Golf Course:
1. The Commission wishes to express its concern and disappoint-
ment at the violation of the Pitkin County policy that all build-
ings be set back 200 feet from Highway 82.
2. The Commission feels that of all the areas in planning for
the community where there might possibly be conflicting objectives
between the City and County, that there should never be incon-
sistency regarding the Highway setback.
3. The Commission recognizes the original efforts made by the
Aspen P&Z and the Planning Office to have review power over the
location of the Pro Shop and agrees with that approach as having
been proper and appropriate.
4. The Commission has established a historic precedent of con-
sistency in its actions in the corridor and has never waived the
application of the setback, regardless of the community objective
which conflicts with this policy.
5. The Commission would advocate whatever steps which would re-
lieve the current situation regarding the setback, specifically
to include the removal of the building even at this late date.
Such actions have been taken by the City of Aspen in the face of
past violations of City policy by private interests and appear to
be justified in the case at hand.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
RE:
Alan Richman, Planning Office
Reconsideration of Golf Course Preliminary Plat
DATE:
October 8, 1982
Introduction
The Planning Office was recently notified by the Engineering Department that
they had failed to record the plat for the Golf Course Subdivision within gO
days after its final approval by City Council. According to Section 20-14(e)
of the Municipal Code, failure on the part of the subdivider to record the
final plat within 90 days of its approval renders the plat invalid and requires
reconsideration and approval of the preliminary and final plat by P & Z and
Council, respectively.
Planning Office Review
Typically, the reconsideration and approval of a previously approved plat
would be a simple matter, since all of the necessary reviews have already
taken place. The review of the Golf Course Subdivision Plat ought to be particularly
straightforward, since the only condition which was placed on final plat
approval was that the plat be signed and sealed by the surveyor and approved
as to form by the City Engineer prior to its recordation. However, as we are
all aware, no review is ever as simple as it seems and the Golf Course Preliminary
'Plat is no exception.
At a recent meeting of the City Council and at your last meeting we were
questioned about the location of the pro shop which is being built next to the
Red Roof Inn. Subsequently, we have had calls about this matter from several
citizens and have seen it covered extensively in the local newspaper. In the
interest of providing you with all of the facts concerning this issue, we
intend to provide you a complete recap of the prior review of the Golf Course
Subdivision.
The Golf Course Subdivision was reviewed in six distinct steps by P & Z and/or
City Council. Following is a description of the major discussions which took
place at that time.
1. P & Z Conceptual Review/Code Amendment - September 28, 1981. This step
consisted of two interrelated reviews. You were asked to act upon a
resolution by City Council which initiated the Golf Course Support Overlay
zone district. You were also asked to grant conceptual approval to a
four-lot subdivision, including the Golf Course, Plum Tree Inn and two
employee housing sites.
Our recommendation to you was that since Council's resolution concerning
the Golf Course Subdivision overlay contained no area and bulk requirements,
you should recommend that these be set by PUD development plans. Our
memo dated September 1, 1981 stated that "this approach would provide
P & Z and Council with a mechanism by which any proposal to develop the
Plum Tree Inn site could be reviewed as to architecture, site design and
landscaping." We also recommended that you approve the two employee
housing sites which would be used for housing key City employees.
You made two substantive recommendations to Council at this review.
First, by your Resolution 81-13 you strongly recommended that the two
employee housing sites be eliminated from the plat and the land be retained
as open space. Also, you recommended that Council amend the Golf Course
Subdivision overlay proposal by requiring the setting of area and bulk
requirements in this zone by PUD development plan.
,.... .~,
'-' ~
Memo: Reconsideration of Golf Course Preliminary Plat
Page Two
October 8, 1982
2. Council - 1st Reading - October 13, 1981. This step consisted only of
the first reading of the ordinance creating the Golf Course Support
Overlay zone district. In a memo dated October 6 we transmitted your
recommendation to Council which accompanied Ordinance #68. This version
of the ordinance required that the area and bulk requirements of the Golf
Course Support overlay zone be set by PUD plan.
At the meeting, Council commented that if the PUD requirements would
delay the renovation of the Plum Tree Inn such that the terms of the
proposed lease of this facility could not be met then they wanted the PUD
provision eliminated. We were asked to determine what effect the PUD
provision would have and if necessary, to return at second reading with a
revised ordinance.
3. Council - 2nd Reading/Conceptual Review - November 9, 1981. At this step
Council first considered your recommendations concerning this subdivision.
They totally concurred with you that it was inappropriate to put employee
housing on land purchased as open space and agreed to eliminate those two
lots from the subdivision.
In a memorandum dated November 2, we also presented our analysis of the
effect of the PUD requirement on the timing of the lease with Red Roof
Inn. Our comments on this subject were as follows:
"We have also spoken with the City Manager to determine how the
proposed PUD area and bulk requirement review would impact the
anticipated development program for the Plum Tree Inn. It is clear
that the present plans for renovating the structure and adding
certain new facilities, including a relocated pro shop, would invoke
the PUD review provision. The Planning Office believes that it is
most important that we provide you and P & Z with a review mechanism
to consider such variables as the architecture, landscaping, height,
mass and setbacks of any building which will be highly visible due
to its location within the Highway 82 scenic corridor. However, we
also recognize that the time delay of a full PUD review at this time
would not be acceptable and that the terms of the lease currently
being negotiated provide one method of review to protect the City's
interest, although without public participation in the review of the
plans."
Based on Council's position that no delay in the renovation would be
acceptable we deleted the Planning Commission's recommendation from
Ordinance #68. At this point, the City Attorney recommended that we
revise the ordinance to be consistent with other overlay zones by setting
the permitted uses for the Golf Course Support overlay but to have its
area and bulk requirements be those of the underlying zone district. In
this case, we recognized that this revision would provide for no review
of changes to the Plum Tree Inn, since all potential uses of this site
were listed as "permitted" in the Golf Course Support overlay zone and
since the Park zone has no standards for area and bulk requirements.
However, we were told that the lease provided for review by the City
Manager and City Attorney and also asked that the Planning Office be
included as a staff level input. Finally, we suggested that when the
time constraint no longer exists, that a second look at the Golf Course
Support overlay be taken to re-evaluate the desirability of having a PUD
review mechanism incorporated into the process.
4. P & Z Preliminary Plat/Rezoning - February 2, 1982. This step consisted
of the subdivision of the Golf Course into two parcels, the Plum Tree Inn
and the park itself, and zoning these parcels to P with a Golf Course
Support overlay and P, respectively. The Planning Office identified no
substantive issues at this time and you concurred by recommending approval
as requested, with only minor conditions associated with Plat recording.

MEMORANDUM
COMMISSION
~
Si~~. L will be out of town the week of October 17, 1982 and unable
~ - ~j,,' ~) ,
to attend tne'"Planning-and Zoning Commission meeting I thought it
important to write a memo concerning the Golf Course Pro Shop.
The plans for the facilities at the Golf Course were prepared by
Hagman Yaw architects and submitted on behalf of Red Roof Inns. The
design and location of the Pro Shop were part of the plans and were
reviewed and approved by the City Council in the process of entering
into an agreement with Red Roof Inns. In fact the design and site are
incorporated into the lease with Red Roof Inns as an exhibit. Further,
the design of the facilities, with the design and current site of the
Pro Shop clearly shown, was submitted in a colored rendering by the
architect many months ago and was posted on the bulletin board in the
City Council Chambers for approximately 10 days. Thus the City Council
reserved to itself the authority to review and approve the plans thus
making a PUD with further architectural reviews redundant.
Further, during Spring of 1982 approximately 3 to 4 months before
construction of the Pro Shop began, I accompanied a member of the
staff of the Planning Department to the Golf. Course. At that time the
Director of Parks and myself showed him the site for the Pro Shop. We
were informed at that time that if the site were in the County there
would be a problem due to the 200 foot setback but since the site was in
the City there was no legal problem because there is no 200 foot setback
requirement. Very frankly, after that site visit I do not recall ever
hearing again over the next three to four months the subject of the
200 foot setback - at City Council meetings or any other time. Based
on the foregoing it seems that a reasonable person would conclude that
there was no obstacle to proceeding with the Pro Shop as designed and
situated.
There were several reasons for selecting the current site for the Pro
Shop. First, we needed a site which could control access to both the
first and tenth tees. The site of the old Pro Shop controls the first
tee but does not provide a line of sight to the tenth tee. In addition
it was our understanding that when the site of the old Pro Shop was
approved it was done so under the condition that it was temporary and
that a different site would be used. Also, we could not use a site
that was directly in line with the' Inn because of conflicts with de-
liveries and trash removal for the Inn. Further, we felt that from a
design point of view such an alignment would be less aesthetically
pleasing for both buildings. Finally we did not want to locate the
Pro Shop anywhere in the parking lot.
In summary, the Pro Shop design and site were neither glossed over
in some back room nor made subservient to'a developers desire to
"save a few weeks time". The plans were reviewed and approved by
, ,
, TWO
,S
-
'-
,r"~-,\
....",;
IJYthe City Council, the elected representatives of the citizens of
, Aspen. They were prepared by a reputable architect. The plans have
been public for many months and the site was known to the Planning
Department staff for many months.
If there is dissatisfaction with the result that is regrettable.
However any suggestion that the decision-making process was anything
less than public, proper, or was motivated by a desire to save time
flies in the face of the facts.
We intend to do 'extensive landscaping of the area around the Pro Shop
next season. If anyone care to make suggest~ons regarding landscaping
of the Pro Shop we would welcome them.

hasty council action \
spoils scenic- corridor I
The hazards of hasty council action to circumvent the
full planning process are now apparent in the pro shop
under construction at the golf course,
Although the county has maintained a 200-foot set-
back from the highway to enhance the approach to Aspen
for over two decades, the city has broken that tradition
and allowed the pro shop to violate the setback.
This week several council members expressed concern
with the encroachment and appeared surprised when
told they had approved the plans. But it was their
thoughtless attempt to hasten the development process
on city property for a private developer which made the
infraction possible.
In their hurry to speed the approval process for a pros-
pective lessee they rejected recommendations from their
professional planners and from their planning commis-
sion to impose PUD (planned unit development) restric-
tions on the tract when it was rezoned to Golf Course
Overlay last November. I
They were told that the PZ commission "felt it was
important to create a review mechanism and therefore
followed the planning office recommendation that this be
done"," by creation of a PUD,
Council membersfwere also told in a planning office
memo that "it is most important that we provide you and
P&Z a review mechanism to consider such variables as
the architecture, landscaping, height, mass and setbacks 1
of any building whiCh will be highly visible due to its
location within the Highway 82 scenic corridor." I
However, the council in its wisdom chose to listen to
the advice of its administrative staff, which had
negotiated the lease deal, rather than its planners, decid.
ing that expediency was more important than planning,
and had the PUD controls omitted from the zoning ordi-
nance, thus eliminating future PZ or planning office
review.
Twenty years ago a determined board of county com-
missioners fought hard to persuade property owners that
a 200-foot setback from the highway was necessary to
create an open scenic corridor into the city. That corridor
and the absence of all billboards are direct benefits to
Aspen and everyone who lives here,
It is deplorable that this 20-year effort by the county to
preserve green space along the highway should be cor-
rupted by an ill-conceived desire to bypass the planning
process, The council and its staff may have saved the
developer a few weeks time, but the result will be an
eyesore forever.

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
JIM HOLLAND, Director of parks~
January 24, 1983
RE: CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN
GOLF COURSE P.U.D.
As a supplement to the Conceptual Site Plan depicting the Golf
Course Entrance, Parking, and Pro Shop areas which I have submitted for
your review, I offer the following comments concerning these areas as
well as the entire Highway 82 frontage.
First of all, it has been expressed to me in many meetings with
Council, that it is their wish that the entire Golf Course frontage
from Maroon Creek Bridge to Castle Creek Bridge be fully developed to
a standard of landscaping consistent with the rest of the Golf Course.
It is at their direction and that of the City Manager then, that I have
begun to compile cost estimates and conceptual site plans for developing
the entire greenbelt area along the highway, so that this area between
the highway's edge and the irrigated bluegrass fairways of the Golf
Course will in fact become a "GREENbelt". While extending the course
irrigation system and manicured turf clear over to the edge of the
highway is certainly no simple nor inexpensive project, it will have
a substantial visual impact on our entrance into the City. This area
is currently unmaintainable rocks and weeds, and is detrimental to the
overall appearance of the Golf Course. Although it's development means
increased costs for ongoing maintenance, I heartily welcome the change.
HIGHWAY 82 & MAROON CREEK . ASPEN, COLORADO 81611 . (303) 925,9425

......
-
As a starting point, the area of most immediate need for develop-
mental funding is naturally the area that is used most. As our new Pro
Shop opens for operation this spring, we will in fact be in the process
of landscaping that area. Funds have been approved by Council which will
enable us to curb and asphalt the Golf Course entranceway road as well as
complete all pond construction, irrigation installation, sodding, trees,
and cart paths in the immediate area of the Pro Shop (e~st of the new
entrance road alignment). Further funding may also be available this
summer for landscaping in the area of the 'old Pro Shop building after it
is removed from its location.
The parking lot itself and the area south of it to the highway then
become the next target areas for funding. Consideration is currently
being given to the possibility of floating a bond issue which would in-
clude this phase of Golf Course development, as well as allocating monies
for all greenbelt improvements eastward along the highway to Cemetary Lane,
and to include elimination of the small parking area at that intersection.
So that you might understand better what sort of end product we're
striving for in each of the areas, I offer the following comments. The
existing berms around the parking lot will be feathered out, reshaped as
illustrated on the plan, and covered with topsoil. All new slopes will
be mowab1e. The raw water irrigation system of the Golf Course will be
extended into this area and into the parking lot islands so bluegrass turf
can be established and trees can be planted throughout the entire area.
The parking lot itself will be curbed and paved eliminating the dust and
pothole problems we presently tolerate. Although on a busy day, due to
golf traffic and P1umtree ballfield use, we would often come close to
running out of parking space, we feel the addition of the landscaped
islands within the parking area will be well worth the sacrifice of a
few spaces because of their aesthetic contribution. Because of its size
and proximity to the highway, this parking area must be broken up through
the use of plant material in order to present the type of attractive
appearance we're hoping for.
1"'''

,....,

The landscaping of the strip eastward along the highway offers us
the opportunity to present a much cleaner, "finished" appearance to the
Golf Course, while at the same time enhancing the attractiveness of this
area for the bikers and joggers who frequent this section of the trails
system. The buck-pole fencing should be replaced with cedar split-rail.
Where you have livestock to graze around this type of fence, it works
just fine, but if you have to maintain under and around it with mowing
equipment, it's not very practical. While there are a couple of locations
within this greenbelt that are quite attractive, well-established native
areas of sage and scrub oak that will be preserved as such, the majority
of the entire strip will be converted to irrigated bluegrass turf. The
contrast of these areas will serve to enhance one another and help break
up the greenbelt.
The parking lot at the intersection of Highway 82 and Cemetary Lane,
as stated before, will be eliminated. This entire area will also be fully
irrigated and landscaped to a standard consistent with the remainder of
the Golf Course. While not everyone is going to be pleased with the elim-
ination of this parking area (it is heavily used by x-country skiers,
joggers, and as a commuter intercept lot), the decision was officially
approved by Council at the recommendation of various interest groups
including the Pitkin County Parks'Association and P & Z. Whatever the
repercussions, development of this area will undoubtedly help to present
a more attractive entranceway into Aspen.
I hope this has helped to answer some of your questions regarding
further improvements of the Aspen Golf Course property. We've come a
long way from the little, insignificant 9-hole operation which we were
only a short time ago. And, as you can see, we've got a long way yet
to go. I hope some of these things get you as excited as I am about the
future of this public facility. I really think we've got something about
which we should be excited and proud.
.'.7
I'll be available for questions when this plan comes to you for
review, or give me a call at ext. 302 if I can help in any way.

Memo: Reconsideration of Golf Course Preliminary Plat
Page Three
October 8, 1982
Though no comments were included in the memo concerning the Council
action regarding the PUD requirement, we believe that the issue was
discussed during the public hearing. Unfortunately, we have been unable
to locate the minutes from this meeting in the City Clerk's office and
cannot positively report to you as to whether or not we were negligent in
our discussion of this issue. However, at the time you indicated no
concern with the nature of the subdivision and rezoning and your approval
passed the issue along to City Council.
You should recognize, though, that the plat you reviewed did not show the
location of the pro shop and therefore you would have been unaware of its
potential existence. The Planning Office did perform a site inspection of the
proposed location of this building during this time period. The City Manager
and Director of Parks showed us the location and orientation of the proposed
building and solicited our comments at that time.
5. City Council 1st Reading - February 22, 1982. At this meeting the Council
gave its first reading approval to the request to zone the Golf Course P
and the Plum Tree Inn P with a Golf Course Support overlay.
6. City Council 2nd Reading/Final Plat - March 22, 1982. At this meeting
Council gave its final approval to the rezoning and subdivision with no
changes having occurred since the preliminary plat review by P & z.
Planning Office Recommendation
The Planning Office hopes that this rather lengthy synopsis of the prior
review process helps in your understanding of how the pro shop has come to be
built without any review by P & Z. Based on the many comments we have received
from the public and consistent with our earlier suggestion to City Council
that we look at this matter again when time is not a concern, we recommend
that you recommend to City Council that they rezone the land now zoned P with
a Golf Course Support overlay to P with GLS and PUD overlays. We also recommend
that you approve the reconsideration of the Golf Course Preliminary Plat, with
no conditions attached to this approval.

Golf Course Conceptual PUD
March 22, 1983
As you may recall, you decided to table the Golf Course PUD submission at
your meeting on March 8 so that additional information could be submitted.
Specifically, you asked Jim Holland to prepare an elevation study of the
entrance to the Red Roof Inn property to show the relationships between the
highway, the trail and the proposed beams. It is my understanding that the
appropriate drawing is being prepared and will be available for your meeting
tonight.
The Planning Office continues to believe that it is appropriate to exempt the
proposed landscaping of the golf course entrance from mandatory compliance
with the provisions of PUD. Our reasons for this recommendation are as follows:
1. The only development which is proposed is landscaping and road
work; no buildings are to be constructed.
2. Council has already considered the plan before you and gave it a
unanimous endorsement at their meeting on January 10.
3. The review and recording of this PUD plan ensures that all develop-
ment of the Golf Course be consistent with these plans and that any
future plans for the Golf Course, including areas for which no
conceptual plans have been submitted, be subject to your review of a
PUD plan amendment.
The Planning Office recommends that you grant the Golf Course Conceptual
Site Plan an exemption from Mandatory PUD, subject to the condition that any
development of the property be consistent with the plans submitted to you, and
that any development proposals for which plans have not been submitted be
subject to review by P&Z and Council as an amendment to this PUD.

RE: Golf Course Subdivision - Exemption from Mandatory PUD
DATE: February 15, 1983
Attached is an application for the Golf Course PUD Conceptual Site Plan. Since
the application consists of only a landscaping plan for the golf course, and
no construction will be taking place, exemption from mandatory PUD will be
recommended.
Please look the application and site plan over and return your comments to the
Planning Office no later than February 25, as the matter is scheduled for the
first City P&Z meeting in March.
Thank you.

Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission

RE:
Alan Richman, Planning Office
Golf Course Conceptual PUD
DATE:
March 8, 1983
Introduction
Late in 1982 you were presented with the Golf Course Subdivision preliminary
plat for your reconsideration to permit its recordation. At that time, P&Z
indicated its displeasure with the recent construction of the Golf Pro Shop
adjacent to Highway 82 and expressed its interest in obtaining a mechanism to
review any future activities which might affect this parcel. P&Z therefore
recommended that City Council rezone the Golf Course to add a "PUD" designation
to the "Park" and "Golf Course Support Overlay" zones which were already in
place. Council concurred with your recommendation and by Ordinance 69, Series
of 1982, made development on the Golf Course subject to a mandatory PUD.
In accord with your request, the City has put together a PUD application which
accomplishes the following:
1. Establishes for the record the facilities which currently exist on
the Golf Course property by the creation of a plat, prepared by the
Engineering Department.
2. Proposes a program for the immediate improvement of the entrance to
the Golf Course in the vicinity of the Red Roof Inn, to include
landscaping, irrigation, paving and curbing, prepared by the Parks
Department with the assistance of Hagman/Yaw Architects.
3. Identifies the anticipated long term improvement program for the
remainder of the Golf Course, including the parking lot, the frontage
along Highway 82 and the intersection of the Highway with Cemetary
Lane. No formal PUD plan has been submitted for these areas.
Planning Office Review
The Attorney's Office and Engineering Department had no comments concerning
this application, although we anticipate that verbal comments may be raised at
the meeting.
The Planning Office wholeheartedly supports the plans to finish off and beautify
the entrance to the Red Roof Inn. We particularly approve of the plans to
screen the pro shop, soften the access road while also paving and curbing it,
remove the old pro shop, and break up the large parking lot. We believe that
these plans merit your support.
According to Section 24-8.13, Mandatory PUD, "whenever the zoning district
map designates a mandatory planned unit development district by including the
letters PUD as a suffix to the classification of any district, all development
shall proceed according to this Article VIII as a planned unit development unless
the planning and Zoning Commission shall determine that the proposed development
meets the objectives of planned unit development and therefore compliance with
this article is not necessary." We believe that it is appropriate for you to
award this proposal an exemption from mandatory PUD for the following reasons:
1. The only development which is proposed is landscaping and road work;
no buildings are to be constructed.
2. Council has already considered the plan before you and gave it a
unanimous endorsement at their meeting on January 10, 1983.
3. No purpose would be served by subjecting this proposal to the remalnlng
steps of the review process. The essential objective of the PUD
designation has been met, this being the development of a plan of

existing and proposed improvements to the Golf Course. We can now require
that all development of the property be consistent with these plans and
that any future plans for the Golf Course, including areas for which no
conceptual plans have been formall submitted, be subject to your review
of a PUO plan amendment. Such plans will become particularly important
if at some point in the future plans move forward to four-lane Highway
82 in that there would be a need to coordinate the landscape plans with
those for the road's design.
Planning Office Recommendation
The Planning Office recommends that you grant the Golf Course Conceptual Site
Plan an exemption from mandatory PUO, subject to the condition that any develop-
ment to the property be consistent with the plans submitted to you, and that
any development proposals for which plans have not been submitted be subject
to review by P&Z and City Council as an amendment to this PUO.

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
JIM HOLLAND, Director of parks~
January 24, 1983
RE: CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN
GOLF COURSE P.U.D.
As a supplement to the Conceptual Site Plan depicting the Golf
Course Entrance, Parking, and Pro Shop areas which I have submitted for
your review, I offer the following comments concerning these areas as
well as the entire Highway 82 frontage.
First of all, it has been expressed to me in many meetings with
Council, that it is their wish that the entire Golf Course frontage
from Maroon Creek Bridge to Castle Creek Bridge be fully developed to
a standard of landscaping consistent with the rest of the Golf Course.
It is at their direction and that of the City Manager then, that I have
begun to compile cost estimates and conceptual site plans for developing
the entire greenbelt area along the highway, so that this area between
the highway's edge and the irrigated bluegrass fairways of the Golf
Course will in fact become a "GREENbelt". While extending the course
irrigation system and manicured turf clear over to the edge of the
highway is certainly no simple nor inexpensive project, it will have
a substantial visual impact on our entrance into the City. This area
is currently unmaintainable rocks and weeds, and is detrimental to the
overall appearance of the Golf Course. Although it's development means
increased costs for ongoing maintenance, I heartily welcome the change.

--
As a starting point, the area of most immediate need for develop-
mental funding is naturally the area that is used most. As our new Pro
Shop opens for operation this spring, we will in fact be in the process
of landscaping that area. Funds have been approved by Council which will
enable us to curb and asphalt the Golf Course entranceway road as well as
complete all pond construction, irrigation installation, sodding, trees,
and cart paths in the immediate area of the Pro Shop (e?st of the new
entrance road alignment). Further funding may also be available this
summer for landscaping in the area of the old Pro Shop building after it
is removed from its location.
The parking lot itself and the area south of it to the highway then
become the next target areas for funding. Consideration is currently
being given to the possibility of floating a bond issue which would in-
clude this phase of Golf Course development, as well as allocating monies
for all greenbelt improvements eastward along the highway to Cemetary Lane,
and to include elimination of the small parking area at that intersection.
So that you might understand better what sort of end product we're
striving for in each of the areas, I offer the following comments. The
existing berms around the parking lot will be feathered out, reshaped as
illustrated on the plan, and covered with topsoil. All new slopes will
be mowable. The raw water irrigation system of the Golf Course will be
extended into this area and into the parking lot islands so bluegrass turf
can be established and trees can be planted throughout the entire area.
The parking lot itself will be curbed and paved eliminating the dust and
pothole problems we presently tolerate. Although on a busy day, due to
golf traffic and Plumtree ballfield use, we would often come close to
running out of parking space, we feel the addition of the landscaped
islands within the parking area will be well worth the sacrifice of a
few spaces because of their aesthetic contribution. Because of its size
and proximity to the highway, this parking area must be broken up through
the use of plant material in order to present the type of attractive
appearance we're hoping for.
,-
''"-'

"""
The landscaping of the strip eastward along the highway offers us
the opportunity to present a much cleaner, "finished" appearance to the
Golf Course, while at the same time enhancing the attractiveness of this
area for the bikers and joggers who frequent this section of the trails
system. The buck-pole fencing should be replaced with cedar split-rail.
Where you have livestock to graze around this type of fence, it works
just fine, but if you have to maintain under and around it with mowing
equipment, it's not very practical. While there are a couple of locations
within this greenbelt that are quite attractive, well-established native
areas of sage and scrub oak that will be preserved as such, the majority
of the entire strip will be converted to irrigated bluegrass turf. The
contrast of these areas will serve to enhance one another and help break
up the greenbelt.
The parking lot at the intersection of Highway 82 and Cemetary Lane,
as stated before, will be eliminated. This entire area will also be fully
irrigated and landscaped to a standard consistent with the remainder of
the Golf Course. While not everyone.is going to be pleased with the elim-
ination of this parking area (it is heavily used by x-country skiers,
joggers, and as a commuter intercept lot), the decision was officially
approved by Council at the recommendation of various interest groups
including the Pitkin County Parks'Association and P & Z. Whatever the
repercussions, development of this area will undoubtedly help to present
a more attractive entranceway into Aspen.
I hope this has helped to answer some of your questions regarding
further improvements of the Aspen Golf Course property. We've come a
long way from the little, insignificant 9-hole operation which we were
only a short time ago. And, as you can see, we've got a long way yet
to go, I hope some of these things get you as excited as I am about the
future of this public facility. I really think we've got something about
which we should be excited and proud.
.-i
I'll be available for questions when this plan comes to you for
review, or give me a call at ext. 302 if I can help in any way.
