The Engineering Department has reviewed the application; inspected the building site; and by separate letter recommends approval of the request. The application incorrectly cites the relevant subdivision regulation sections. The governing rules for Subdivision Exemption are found in Section 20-19(b) which requires the Planning and Zoning Commission and Council to find that the "division of land is not within the intent and purposes" of the subdivision regulations. On September 15, 1976, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the request conditioned upon payment of the Park Dedication Fee. The Planning Office recommends approval of the exemption. APPLICATION FOR EXEMPTION FROM SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS Pursuant to Section 20-10 of Chapter 20 of the Municipal Code of the City of Aspen, John W. Annan and Nancy Lee Snell (hereinafter collectively referred to as applicant) hereby apply for an exemption from the definition of the term "Subdivision" with respect to the real property described as: Lots 15, 16 and 17. Block 2 Riverside Addition to the City and Townsite of Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado The applicant submits that the exemption in this case would be appropriate for the following reasons: 1) The application involves subdivision of an existing duplex. The owners of the separate portion of the duplex structure will own the common elements of the duplex-condominium as tenants in common. Said common elements shall not be subject to partition. The applicant will, at condominiumization, file a declaration with the Pitkin County Clerk & Recorder which will state that the land use impact of the property will not be increased over its present use by virtue of said condominiumization. 2) The applicant submits that such an exemption in the instant case would not conflict with the intent and purpose of the subdivision regulations which are directed to assist, among other things, orderly, efficient and integrated development of the City of Aspen; to insure the proper distribution of population; to coordinate the need for public services; and to encourage well planned subdivision. They are directed to considerations of subdivision design and improvements and to restrict such building where it is inappropriate after considering its land use impact. The duplex presently exists and its impact upon the aforementioned requirement will not be increased in any way by its condominiumization. 3) Pursuant to the provisions of Section 20-10 (c) of the Municipal Code of the City of Aspen, a property which is being condominiumized shall be exempt from the definition of subdivision as set forth in Section 20-2 (c) of the code as long as said property "fulfills all pertinent design requirements contained in Section 20-7 of this chapter. The duplex which is the subject of this application fulfills all pertinent design requirements contained in Section 20-7. It is the contention of the applicant that the granting of an exemption to the subdivision regulations is proper in the situation and is indeed required by Section 20-10 (c) of the Municipal Code of the City of Aspen. The applicant would appreciate your consideration of this application at your next regular meeting. D"'djlU'if.l- d.~ h I. by Nanc .
