RE: Consent Agenda/Spring Street Townhomes/Request for
Condominiumization
DATE: December 12, 1988
SUMMARY: Approval of condominiumization of the Spring Street
duplex currently under construction.
REQUEST: Approval to condominiumize a duplex currently under
construction.
APPLICANT: Spring Street Townhouses, Ltd.
LOCATION: 701-703 East Hopkins, Lots A and B, Block 104
ZONING: "O" - Office
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL: The applicants are currently
building a duplex on a vacant lot. Each side of the duplex is
approximately 1,710 sq. ft. in size with three (3) bedrooms per
side. (See attached map.)
REFERRAL COMMENTS:
In a memo dated December 4, 1988, the Engineering Department made
the following comments:
1. A Spring Street Condominium already exists, therefore,
the Engineering Department recommends that a different
name be chosen. A provision in the municipal code
requires that similar names of condominiums not be
used.
2. The project must comply with the requirement of
maintaining historic storm water runoff flows from the
site. It does not appear from the application that
this has been done. If the applicant desires to have
the plat executed prior to this work, the work will
have to be bonded for as stated in the municipal code.
3. It is typically a requirement for subdivision
exemptions for condominiums that sidewalks be
constructed prior to approvals. If the applicant would
like to complete the condominiumization process prior
to construction of the sidewalk, an estimate for the
work and a bond in the amount of the estimate must be
provided before the plat will be signed; Hopkins Street
frontage only.
The Engineering Department is revising their earlier
waiver of sidewalk construction for this project due to
potential tree impact. A landscape architect was
consulted who stated that the two chief problems with
constructing a sidewalk within the dripline of an
evergreen tree are providing sufficient water to the
tree and dealing with the possibility of a concrete
sidewalk buckling as the root system continues to grow.
The landscape architect assured the Engineering
Department that there are many systems available of
brick pavers which can be utilized leaving gaps between
the units both for water penetration and for some
movement of the sidewalk without the buckling of a
solid concrete system. The Engineering Department
states "There are many areas in town with similar tree
growth, and it behooves us to solve the problem of
constructing a sidewalk under a tree without
compromising the health of the tree or forcing
pedestrian traffic into the streets."
4. The plat does not indicate how many bedrooms are in
each unit, nor if there are garages in the basements of
the structures. The plat must show all of the parking
spaces in order to confirm that the numbers and sizes
are correct. The plat indicates parking spaces on the
driveways, which are very steep. A snowmelt system is
recommended to insure that the spaces are usable
during portions of the winter.
5. The plat indicates that the driveway encroaches into
the alley. Engineering is neither recommending an
encroachment permit nor removal of the concrete until
conferring with the Streets Department.
6. The additional required contents of the plat are as
follows:
a. Full monumentation of the property, indicating
that the monuments have surveyor's caps.
b. Location of water meters must be shown.
C. Surveyor's certificate must indicate that all
easements shown on title certificate number PCT-
1393-87 have been shown on the plat.
d. The transformer must show an easement around it.
2
•
e. Indicate the location and approximate diameter and
height of the evergreens in the right-of-way
adjacent to the property.
f. Provide a title certificate
g. Indicate the location of the dumpster or other
solid waste receptacles.
h. The name of the adjacent subdivision, "Edge of
Aspen Condos" must be indicated
STAFF COMMENTS:
Section 7-1008 of the Aspen Municipal Code refer to the
requirements for condominiumization.
1. CRITERIA: The existing tenants shall be given first right
of refusal.
RESPONSE: The proposed condominiumization involves new
units which have no prior tenant history.
2. CRITERIA: Residences in the Office district shall be
restricted to 6 month minimum lease restrictions with no
more than two shorter tenancies per year unless otherwise
demonstrated by the applicant according to the criteria
stated in Section 7-1008 (A) (1) (b) (2) (a) .
RESPONSE: The applicant agrees to the six (6) month minimum
lease restriction with no more than two (2) shorter
tenancies per calendar year.
3. CRITERIA: An Affordable Housing Impact Fee shall be
assessed to each free market condominium unit based on the
Number of bedrooms contained in the unit.
RESPONSE: The applicant agrees to pay $8,050 per unit, a
total of $16,100.00, (based on the fee schedule for three
bedrooms or larger). This shall be paid at the time the
condominium plat is filed.
In summary, the applicants have complied with all the applicable
Code requirements for condominiumization, with the exceptions as
noted in the referral comments from the Engineering Department.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"Move the grant Subdivision Exemption for condominiumization of
the Spring Street Townhomes, with the following conditions:
K
•
•
1. The applicants re -name the project, due to the previous
existence of another Spring Street Condominium.
2. The applicants shall pay a fee of $16,100.00 to the
Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority for the Affordable Housing
Impact Fee at the time the condominium plat is filed.
3. The following engineering items shall be addressed by the
applicant prior to the recordation of the condominium plat:
a. The applicant shall submit additional drainage
information to the Engineering Department relating to
the maintenance of historic storm water runoff flow.
b. The Plat shall include the following:
1) all parking spaces shall be indicated
2) the monuments shall have surveyor's caps 3)
location of water meters and dumpster or
other solid waste receptacles
3) the easement surrounding the transformer
4) location and approximate diameter and height
of the evergreens in the right-of-way
adjacent to the property.
5) name of adjacent "Edge of Aspen Condos"
C. The surveyor's certificate must indicate that all
easements are indicated on the plat.
d. The applicant shall provide the Engineering Department
with a title certificate.
e. The applicant shall post a bond for the construction of
a sidewalk as a condition of occupancy of the units,
which bond shall be returned to the applicant following
its construction. A work estimate for the Hopkins St.
sidewalk and a bond in the amount of the estimate must
be provided to the Engineering Department should the
applicant wish to complete the work prior to approvals.

MEMORANDUM
To: Cindy Houben, Planning Office
From: Chuck Roth, Assistant City Engineer C`-
Date: December 4, 1988
Re: Spring Street Townhouses Subdivision Exemption for
Condominiumization
Having reviewed the above referenced application and having made
a site inspection, the Engineering Department has the following
comments:
1. There is a provision in the municipal code relating to the
naming of condominiums which requires that similar names are not
used. There is already a Spring Street Condominium, therefore
the Engineering Department recommends that a different name be
chosen for this condominium.
2. Condominiums are required to meet the subdivision design
details concerning storm water runoff. Since this is a new
structure, it should also comply with the requirement of main-
taining historic storm water runoff flows from the site. It does
not appear from the application that this has been done. If the
applicant desires to have the plat executed prior to this work,
the work will have to be bonded for as stated in the municipal
code.
3. It is typically a requirement for subdivision exemptions for
condominiums that sidewalk be constructed prior to approvals. If
the applicant would like to complete the condominiumization
process prior to construction of the sidewalk, an estimate for
the work and a bond in the amount of the estimate must be
provided before the plat will be signed. This is for the Hopkins
Street frontage only because sidewalk is already in place along
Spring Street.
We have been informed that the applicant was previously
granted permission not to construct this segment of sidewalk.
Now that this location is up for review again, the Engineering
Department would like to revise its earlier waiver of sidewalk
construction. We have checked with a landscape architect who has
stated that the two chief problems with constructing a sidewalk
within the dripline of an evergreen tree are providing sufficient
water to the tree and dealing with the possibility of a concrete
sidewalk buckling as the root system continues to grow. The
landscape architect assured us that there are many systems
available of brick pavers which can be used leaving gaps between
the units both for water penetration and for some movement of the
4 1- Ot 1 9 0
-
sidewalk without the buckling of a solid concrete system.
There are many areas in town with similar tree growth, and
it behooves us to solve the problem of constructing a sidewalk
under a tree without compromising the health of the tree or
forcing pedestrian traffic into the streets.
4. Parking - Neither the plat nor the application is clear as to
how many bedrooms are in the unit. This information is needed in
order to determine the required number of parking places. The
plat is not clear that there are garages in the basements of the
structures. The plat must show all of the parking spaces in
order to confirm that the numbers and sizes are correct.
The plat shows parking spaces on the driveways. The
driveways are very steep. Unless there is a snowmelt system in
the concrete of the driveways, it may be that the spaces are
unusable during portions of the winter.
5. Plat contents:
a. Full monumentation of the property is required. That
is, the plat must indicate that the monuments have survey-
or's caps.
b. Location of water meter must be shown.
C. The surveyor's certificate must indicate that all
easements shown of title certificate number have
been shown on the plat.
d. The transformer must show an easement around it.
e. Indicate the location and approximate diameter and
height of the evergreens in the right-of-way adjacent to the
property.
f. Provide a title certificate.
g. Indicate the location of the dumpster or other solid
waste recepticals.
h. The name of the adjacent subdivision must be indicated -
Edge of Aspen Condos.
i. The plat shows the driveway encroaching into the alley.
In other similar instances, property owners have had to pull
their driveways back to their property lines so that snow
removal equipment does not catch a blade on the lip. At
this time, we will neither recommend for an encroachment
permit nor request removal of the concrete. We wil-
with the Streets Department to see if they want the
cut back.

RE: Spring Street Townhouses Subdivision Exemption for
Condominiumization
Dear Sunny,
This is to inform you that the Planning Office has completed its
preliminary review of the captioned application. We have
determined that your application IS complete.
We have scheduled your application for review by the City Council
at their regular meeting to begin at 5:00 PM on Monday, December
12, 1988. The Friday before the meeting date, we will call to
inform you that a copy of the memo pertaining to your application
is available at the Planning Office.
If you have any other questions, please call Cindy Houben, the
planner assigned to your case.
Sincerely,

Dear Sunny,
As you have requested I have taken a look at the Brownstone
Townhouse Condominiums in regards to a sidewalk along Hopkins
Street. The problem the two mature spruce trees present is that
when paving over the root zone of a tree it is important not to
obstruct surface water drainage to the roots. This can be
accomplished by using a paving system which allows the
penetration of water. Another potential problem is root upheaval
which causes pavement to crack.
It is my recommendation that in order to mitigate each problem a
paving system such as "loose set" bricks (not interlocking brick
pavers) set on sand be used above the tree root zones. Paving
width should not exceed 4 feet. The exposed aggregate concrete
paving used on the Spring Street side should be used to turn the
corner in order to integrate the two paving types.
An estimate of cost for this paving solution is as follows:
1. Exposed Aggregate Paving - 40 S.F. a 4.00/S.F. $160.00
2. Brick Paving - 120 S.F. n 7.00/S.F. 840.00
TOTAL
$1,000.00
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Thomas G. Stevens ASLA

Re: Spring Street Townhouses Subdivision
Exemption for Condominiumization
Dear Chuck:
Per our conversation regarding your December 4, 1988 memorandum
on the above project, I would like to reiterate our conversation.
In regard to item #2 storm water runoff, the project has been
designed to retain the historic rate of runoff. The design involved
our consulting engineer and the soils engineer on the project.
In reference to item #3 sidewalks. The fact that a sidewalk does
not exist on Hopkins Street was discussed and approved by both
the City Engineer and Parks Department, because of the adverse
effects on the large spruce trees. Installation of a sidewalk or change
of grade on the trees' root system could kill these trees. I understand
you think an alternate may exist. We explored many with input
from the tree expert hired as a subconsultant to the general contractor
and the Parks Department, including the preforated concrete paver
you mentioned and arrived at no good solution. After these were
pursued at length, all agreed to not install any form of walking
surface. I hope you will agree with the approval given. Per our
conversation, please call after your discussion with the Parks
Department.
Finally, item #4 parking. As you have discovered, the driveway
is heated and therefore the additional parking spaces are useable
and the project meets the City's parking requirements.
I hope this addresses your concerns as we discussed them. If not,
please let me know immediately.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 8, 1988
TO: Cindy Houben, Planning Office
FROM: Fred Gannett, Staff Attorney
RE: Spring Street Townhouses Subdivision Exemption for
Condominiumization Application
I have quickly reviewed the application filed by Sunny Vann on
behalf of his clients, and find no areas that cause immediate
concern.
On Page 2, Paragraph 2 of Sunny's letter, he makes reference to
the Declaration of Covenants incorporating a six-month minimum
lease restriction on the property. The covenant language
contained in Exhibit "A" to the application appears to satisfy
all of the requirements.
Sorry I am late with these comments for your deadline. Hope they
don't inconvenience you.

Re: Spring Street Townhouses, Ltd. Condominiumization
Dear Cindy:
Please consider this letter an application for subdivision
exemption review for the condominiumization of a new
duplex currently under construction at 701/703 East
Hopkins Avenue (see Land Use Application Form attached
hereto as Exhibit A). The property is legally described
as Lots A and B, Block 104, City and Townsite of Aspen. \�,-
i
The application is submitted pursuant to Section 7-1008 of
the Aspen Land Use Regulations by M&W Properties on behalf/
of the owner of the property, Spring Street Townhouses,
Ltd., a Colorado limited partnership. A commitment for
title insurance evidencing M&W Properties interest in the
property is attached hereto as Exhibit B. Permission for
Vann Associates to represent the Applicant is attached as
Exhibit C.
The applicable submission requirements/review criteria for
the condominiumization of residences, and the Applicant's
compliance therewith, are summarized below.
1. "Evidence that tenants have or will be provided
notice and the right to purchase their unit that is being
condominiumized."
This criteria is not applicable as the proposed
condominiumization involves new units which have no prior
tenant history.
P 0 Boa 8485 • A�,,pon, C - ? 01c, ;
Ms. Cynthia Houben
November 7, 1988
Page 2
2. "Evidence that the proposed condominium units
shall be restricted to six (6) month minimum leases."
The proposed "Declaration of Covenants" attached
hereto as Exhibit D specifically incorporates a six (6)
month minimum lease restriction which is consistent with
the requirements of the Land Use Regulations. It should
be noted, however, that we are currently researching the
recent application of this restriction to similar projects
in the immediate site area. Based on our findings, we may
elect to amend our application to include a request for
exemption from this requirement. Should an amendment be
necessary, we will submit such additional information as
may be required well in advance of the application's
scheduled review.
3. "Demonstration that the proposed condominiumiz-
ation will have no adverse impact on affordable housing."
Pursuant to Section 7-1008(A)(1)(c) of the Regula-
tions, the Applicant will pay an "affordable housing
impact fee" in the amount of sixteen thousand one hundred
dollars ($16,100.00) at the time the condominiumization
plat is recorded. The fee has been calculated as follows:
2 - 3 Bedroom Units @ $8,050.00 per Unit ='s $16,100.00
The purpose of the impact fee is to help mitigate the
potential impact of condomiumization on the availablity of
affordable housing in the community. The Applicant's
payment of the fee, therefore, should be sufficient to
demonstrate compliance with this review criteria. As the
units are new, no tenant displacement will occur as a
result of condominiumization.
In addition to the above, the Regulations require that the
units proposed for condominiumization be inspected by the
Building Department to ensure adequate compliance with
applicable fire, health and safety regulations. Inasmuch
the Spring Street Condominiums are new units, compliance
with this requirement should be deemed to have been met by
the issuance of a building permit and the issuance of a
certificate of occupancy.
Should you have any questions, or if I can be of any
further assistance, please do not hesitate to call. As my
client wishes to complete the sale of the units as soon as

9. USE AND OCCUPANCY. Each Condominium Unit shall be used
and occupied for residential purposes only, and except as pro-
vided in this Paragraph, no trade or business of any kind may be
carried on therein. Lease or rental of a Condominium Unit for
lodging or residential purposes shall not be considered to be a
violation of this covenant. Provided, that pursuant to Section
7-1008(b) of Chapter 24 of the Aspen Municipal Code, Condominium
Unit leases shall be for terms of not less than 6 months, except
that no more than 2 shorter tenancies shall be permitted per

Common Elements now or hereafter encroaches upon a Unit, a valid
easement for the encroachment and for the maintenance of same, so
long as it stands, shall and does exist. If any portion of a
Unit now or hereafter encroaches upon the Common Elements or upon
an adjoining Unit, a valid easement for the encroachment and for
the maintenance of same, so long as it stands, shall and does
exist. For title or other purposes, such encroachments and ease-
ments shall not be considered or determined to be encumbrances
either on Common Elements or the Units.
11. NEGATION OF MECHANIC'S LIEN RIGHTS AND INDEMNIFICATION.
No labor performed or materials furnished and incorporated in a
Condominium Unit with the consent or at the request of the Owner
thereof or his agent or his contractor or sub -contractor shall be
the basis for the filing of a lien against the Condominium Unit
of the other Owner not expressly consenting to or requesting the
same, or against the interests in the Common Elements owned by
such other Owner. Each Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless
the other Owner from and against all liability arising from the
claim of any lien against the Condominium Unit of the other Owner
or against the Common Elements for construction performed or for
labor, materials, services, or other products incorporated in or
otherwise attributable to the indemnifying Owner's Condominium
Unit at such Owner's request.
12. ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT. The Condominium shall
be administered and managed pursuant to this Declaration and each
Owner shall comply strictly with the provisions of this Declara-
tion. Each Owner shall be bound by and shall comply with such
rules, resolutions and decisions as may be jointly adopted from
time to time in writing by both Owners. Failure of an Owner to
comply with such provisions, rules, resolutions or decisions
shall be grounds for an action to recover damages or to obtain
injunctive relief, or both, maintainable by the other Owner. The
prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorney's fees and costs.
Each Owner shall manage his own Unit. Unless the
Owners of both the Condominium Units agree upon the appointment
of a Managing Agent (which may be one of the Owners or a quali-
fied third party) to manage, control and deal with the interests
of the Owners in the Common Elements, they shall act together for
the purpose of managing, controlling and dealing with their
interests in the Common Elements. Unless the context requires
otherwise, when so acting together the Owners shall also be
referred to herein as the "Managing Agent". The appointment of a
Managing Agent may be revoked by either Owner at any time.
If no Managing Agent shall be appointed and acting, and
either (i) the Owners shall not be able to agree upon a matter
relating to the management of the Common Elements or (ii) an

Owner cannot get an answer from the other Owner after reasonable
efforts (which, without limitation, shall be conclusively pre-
sumed if an Owner receives no answer within ten (10) days after
the mailing of a request therefor by registered or certified
mail), at the instance of either Owner the matter may be sub-
mitted to Coates, Reid & Waldron Property Management, in Aspen,
Colorado, or if said organization is unable or unwilling to act,
to any other property manager in Aspen, Colorado appointed by a
Judge of the District Court in Aspen, Colorado. Any such matter
shall be decided by Coates, Reid & Waldron or such other property
manager on the basis of the best interests of the Owners as a
whole. The decision of Coates, Reid & Waldron or such other
property manager will be binding upon both Owners in the absence
of fraud or bad faith. Any costs and expenses incurred in
obtaining the services of Coates, Reid & Waldron or other prop-
erty manager in connection with any such submission shall be
considered a Common Expense.
13. RESERVATION FOR ACCESS - MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
EMERGENCIES. The Managing Agent and each Owner shall have the
irrevocable right to have access to each Condominium Unit from
time to time during reasonable hours as may be necessary for the
inspection, maintenance, repair or replacement of any of the Gen-
eral Common Elements thereon or accessible therefrom or for
making emergency repairs therein necessary to prevent damage to
the General or Limited Common Elements or the other Condominium
Unit.
Damage to the interior of any part of a Unit resulting
from maintenance, repair, emergency repair or replacement of any
of the General Common Elements or as a result of emergency
repairs within a Unit at the instance of the Managing Agent or
the other Unit Owner shall be a Common Expense of both of the
Owners; provided, however, that if such damage is the result of
the negligence of a Unit Owner, then such Unit Owner shall be
responsible for all such damage.
14. OWNER'S MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY. For purposes of
maintenance, repair, alteration and remodeling, an Owner shall be
deemed to own and to be responsible for maintenance and repair of
the exterior surfaces of such Owner's Unit and the Limited Common
Elements assigned thereto, and the windows, doors, interior
nonsupporting walls, materials, ceilings and floors within the
Unit. An Owner shall not be deemed to own any utilities running
through his Unit which serve more than one Unit except as a ten-
ant in common with the other Unit Owner. Such obligation and/or
right to repair, alter and remodel shall carry the obligation to
replace any finishi-ng materials removed with similar or other
types or kinds of finishing materials of equal or better quality,
and to maintain the Owner's Unit and the Limited Common Elements
assigned thereto in a neat and clean condition. Any material
alteration, remodeling or refinishing of the General Common Ele-
ments and any change in the exterior colors or materials of the
Duplex shall require the prior mutual consent and approval of the
Owners of both the Units, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
An Owner shall maintain and keep the interior of his
own Unit and. the Limited Common Elements appurtenant thereto in
good taste and repair, including the fixtures thereof. All util-
ity systems, fixtures and equipment within the Unit, commencing
at the point where the utility lines, pipes, wires, conduits or

the same may be lawfully amended from time to time. Failure so
to comply shall be grounds for an action to recover sums due and
for damages or injunctive relief or both, maintainable by the
Managing Agent (where appropriate) or by an aggrieved Owner. The
prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorney's fees and costs.
16. REVOCATION OR AMENDMENT TO DECLARATION. This Declara-
tion shall not be revoked nor shall any of the provisions herein
be amended unless the Owners of both Units, and all of the
holders of any recorded Mortgages or deeds of trust covering or
affecting either or both Condominium Units consent and agree to
such revocation or amendment by instrument(s) which shall be duly
recorded.
17. ASSESSMENTS FOR COMMON_ EXPENSES. The Owners of both
Condominium Units shall be obligated to pay the assessments
imposed by the Managing Agent or an Owner for the reasonable
expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with the pro-
tection, maintenance, repair and operation of the General Common
Elements (the "Common Expenses"). A11 such annual or special
assessments shall be shared equally between the Owners of the two
Condominium Units unless the need therefor is caused by the
actions of one of the Owners or his guests, in which case that
Owner shall be solely responsible for such assessment. Assess-
ments shall be made in the following manner. On or before
December 1 of each year commencing with 1988, the Managing Agent
or one of the Owners shall prepare and deliver or mail to each
Owner an itemized Statement of Annual Assessment for Common
Expenses for the next calendar year. Such Statement shall
include the estimated cost of all Common Expenses which it is
anticipated will be incurred during that year. The entire
assessment imposed by such Statement of Annual Assessment shall
be due and payable to the person sending the same no later than
60 days after the delivery or the mailing thereof, and it shall
be the responsibility of the person receiving such funds to place
them in a separate interest -bearing account and to pay the antic-
ipated Common Expenses as and when they become due.
Furthermore, with respect to Common Expenses which the
Managing Agent or an Owner finds it necessary to pay and which
are not covered by an Annual Assessment, the person paying the
same may at any time deliver or mail to each Owner a Statement of
Special Assessment for Common Expenses which itemizes all such
payments and includes copies of all invoices paid thereby. The
entire assessment imposed by each such Statement of Special
Assessment shall. be due and payable to the person sending the
same no later than 30 days after the delivery or the mailing
thereof.
For purposes of this Declaration, "Common Expenses"
shall be deemed to include, without limitation, and annual or
special assessments may thus be made, for the following:
Expenses of management; general property taxes and special
assessments, until separately assessed; fire and casualty insur-
ance with extended coverage and vandalism and malicious mischief
endorsements attached issued in the amount of the maximum

18. INSURANCE. One policy of public liability insurance
covering all of the General Common Elements shall be purchased
and maintained in effect at all times by the Managing Agent or by
the Owners of both of the Condominium Units, in an amount deemed
appropriate by such Owners. In addition, the Owners or Managing
Agent shall purchase and maintain in effect at all times fire,
casualty, and extended coverage insurance on the Condominium
Units as discussed in Paragraph 17 above. Insurance coverage on
the furnishings, additions and improvements incorporated into a
Unit by the Owner thereof and all items of personal property
belonging to an Owner, and casualty and public liability insur-
ance coverage within each Unit and those Limited Common Elements
reserved for the exclusive use of a particular Unit Owner shall
be the sole responsibility of the Owner thereof.
19. OWNER'S PERSONAL OBLIGATION FOR PAYMENT OF ASSESSMENTS.
The amount of the Common Expenses assessed against or incurred on
account of each Condominium Unit shall be the personal and indi-
vidual debt of the Owner thereof,and shall accrue interest at the
rate of 18 percent (18%) per annuin from the date due until the
date paid. Suit to recover a money judgment for unpaid annual or
special assessments and accrued interest shall be maintainable by
the Managing Agent, or any aggrieved Owner, without foreclosure
or waiving the lien securing same. No Owner may exempt himself
from liability for his share of the Common Expenses by waiver of
the use or enjoyment of any of the Common Elements or by aban-
donment of his Unit. The prevailing party in such collection
action shall be entitled to an award of his reasonable costs and
attorney's fees as a part of the judgment entered therein.
20. LIEN FOR NONPAYMENT OF ANNUAL OR SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS.
All sums due or unpaid for the share of Common Expenses assessed
to Condominium Units 1 or 2, including interest thereon at
eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date due until the date
paid, shall constitute a lien on such Unit upon the recording of
a written notice in accordance with the provisions of this para-
graph, which lien shall be superior (prior) to all other liens
and encumbrances except:
(a) Tax and special assessment liens on the Unit in
favor of any assessing entity; and
(b) All sums unpaid on a first mortgage or first deed
of trust of record, including all unpaid obligatory sums as
may be provided by such encumbrance and including additional
advances or the refinance or extension thereof prior to the
recording of the assessment lien.
To evidence such lien, the aggrieved Owner or Managing Agent
may, but shall not be required to, prepare a written notice
setting forth the amount of such unpaid assessment, the name of
the defaulting Owner and a description of the defaulting Owner's
Condominium Unit. Such a notice shall be signed by the aggrieved
Owner or the Managing Agent, as appropriate, and shall be
recorded in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of the County of
Pitkin, State of Colorado. Such lien for unpaid assessments
shall attach from the date of recording and may be enforced by
foreclosure on the defaulting Owner's Condominium Unit by the
aggrieved Owner or the Managing Agent in like manner as a mort-
gage or deed of trust on real property. In any such foreclosure
the defaulting Owner shall be required to pay the costs and
-7-
•
•
BOON '580 PAGE842
expenses of such proceedings, the costs and expenses for filing
the notice of lien and all reasonable attorneys' fees associated
therewith. The foreclosing party shall have the power to bid on
the Condominium Unit at the foreclosure sale and to acquire and
hold, lease, mortgage and convey the same.
Any encumbrancer holding a lien on Condominium Units 1 or 2
may pay any unpaid asessments with respect to such Unit, and upon
such payment such encumbrancer shall have a lien on such Unit for
the amounts paid of the same priorty as the lien of his encum-
brance.
21. LIABILITY FOR ASSESSMENTS UPON TRANSFER OF CONDOMINIUM
UNIT. Upon payment of a reasonable fee not to exceed fifty dol-
lars and upon the written request of any Owner or any Mortgagee
or prospective Mortgagee of Condominium Units 1 or 2, the Manag-
ing Agent or the Owner of the other Unit shall issue a written
statement setting forth the amount of the unpaid assessments, if
any, with respect to the subject Unit, and any credit for advance
payments or for prepaid items, including but not limited to
insurance premiums, which shall be conclusive upon the issuer of
such statement in favor of all persons who rely thereon in good
faith. Unless such request for a statement of indebtedness is
complied with within ten days after receipt, all unpaid assess-
ments which became due prior to the date of making such request
shall be subordinate to the lien of the person requesting such
statement.
The grantee of a Condominium Unit shall be jointly and
severally liable with the grantor for all unpaid assessments
against the latter for his share of the Common Expenses up to the
time of the grant or conveyance, without prejudice to the
grantee's right to recover from the grantor the amounts paid by
the grantee therefor; provided, however, that upon payment of a
reasonable fee riot to exceed fifty dollars, and upon written
request, any prospective grantee shall be entitled to a statement
from the Managing Agent or Owner of the other Unit, setting forth
the amount of the unpaid asssessments, if any, with respect to
the subject Unit, stating any appropriate credit for advance pay-
ments or for prepaid items, including but not limited to insur-
ance premiums, which shall be conclusive upon the issuer thereof.
Unless such request for a statement of indebtedness shall be com-
plied with within ten days after receipt, then such grantee
shall not be liable for, nor shall the Unit conveyed be subject
to a lien for, any unpaid assessments against the subject Unit
which became due prior to the date of the request.
22. MORTGAGING A CONDOMINIUM UNIT - PRIORITY. Any Owner
shall have the right from time to time to mortgage or encumber
his Condominium Unit by deed of trust, mortgage or other secutiry
instrument. Any such mortgage or encumbrance shall be entitled to
whatever priority may be granted to it by law.

tion hereby makes mandatory the irrevocable appointment of an
Attorney -in -Fact to deal with the Project upon its destruction,
obsolescence, restoration, condemnation or sale in lieu thereof.
Title to all Condominium Units is declared and
expressly made subject to the terms and cond_it:ions hereof, and
acceptance by any grantee of a deed from the Declarant or from an
Owner shall constitute appointment of the Attorney -in -Fact herein
provided. Both of the Owners irrevocably constitute and appoint

Declaration, their true and lawful attorney in their name, place
and stead for the purpose of dealing with the property upon its

The Attorney -in -Fact shall have full power and authority to
restore or to sell, as the case may be, the Project and each Unit
in the Project whenever Restoration or sale, as the case may be,
is to be undertaken as hereinabove provided. Such authority
shall include the right and power to enter into any contracts,
deeds or other instruments which may be necessary or appropriate
for Restoration or sale, as the case may be.
(e) Payment of Proceeds. In the event of Substantial
Destruction, Condemnation or Obsolescence all insurance proceeds,
proceeds of sale, condemnation awards, or payments in lieu of
condemnation shall be paid to the Attorney -in -Fact, as trustee
for all of the Owners and any Mortgagees, as the interests of
such Owners and any such Mortgagees may appear.
(f) Assessments for Restoration. When Restoration .is
to be undertaken, the Attorney -in -Fact may levy and collect equal
assessments from each Owner, payable over such period as the
Attorney -in -Fact may determine, to cover the costs and expenses
of Restoration to the extent not covered by Available Funds.
Such assessments shall be secured by a lien on the Unit of each
Owner as in the case of regular assessments.
(g) Receipt and Application of Condemnation Funds.
All compensation, damages or other proceeds constituting awards
in condemnation or eminent domain shall be payable to the
Attorney -in -Fact. The amount thereof allocable to compensation
for the taking of or injury to a particular Unit or to improve-
ments of an Owner therein shall be apportioned to the Owner of
the Unit except to the extent used for Restoration of that Unit.
The balance of the award shall be applied to costs and expenses
of Restoration, if undertaken, and, to the extent not so applied,
shall be allocated as follows: First, any portion of the award
allocable to the taking of or injury to Common Elements shall be
apportioned between both Owners equally; second, the amounts
allocable to severance damages shall be apportioned to the Owner
of a Unit which was not taken or condemned; and third, the amount
allocable to consequential damages or for other purposes shall be
apportioned as the Attorney -in -Fact determines to be equitable
under the circumstances.
(h) Reorganizat:io_n_in the Event of Condemnation. In
the event all of a Unit is taken in condemnation, the Unit shall
cease to be part of the Project, and the undivided interest in
Common Elements appurtenant to that Unit shall automatically
become vested in the Owner of the other Unit.
