The structure has just been expanded from a single family structure into a duplex. The new unit has never had an occupant and the original unit has been occupied by its owner for the past 10 years. The original unit was owned by Mr. John King, presently of Macatawa, Michigan for over 10 years prior to selling to the present owners in July, 1978. The appli- cants have provided evidence that Mr. King has occupied this home as his primary residence and not as a rental for employee housing for the past 10 years. The application was referred to City Engineering which comments as follows, "After reviewing this application and having made a site inspec- tion of the project, the Engineering Department recommends granting of the exemption. The Engineering Department's only comment is that the Owner and surveyor should be aware that there is a 15" wide utility easement adjoining the northerly property line and recorded in Book 228, at Page 236. The City water utility does have a 6" cast iron water main within this utility easement." This comment was made for informational purposes only. Ron Stock has reviewed this application and has no objection to the proposal. Ron recommends granting of the exemption for the condominium- ization of the Bliss Duplex. The Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed this application at their regular meeting on January 16, 1979 at which time they recommended appro- val subject to a six month minimum lease restriction with no more than two shorter tenancies a year. They felt that the criteria of Ordinance #39 is not applicable in this case, because there were no tenants involved. sr 0 • P. O. Box 4153 Aspen, Colorado 81611 December 12, 1978 Ms. Karen Smith City/County Land Use Administration Aspen City Hall 130 S. Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 RE: Bliss Enterprises Duplex Dear Ms. Smith: Please consider this letter a formal application to the Aspen Planning & Zoning Commission for an exemption from the term "subdivision," as defined in the Aspen Municipal Code, Sec. 20-20, with respect to the proposed condominiumization of the two-family dwelling ("duplex") now under construction at 1100 Cemetery Lane (Lot 1, Block 2, Pitkin Mesa Subdivision) and situated on over 18,000 square feet within the City of Aspen. The duplex structure is a permitted use under the applicable zoning regulations, and the condominiumization thereof is solely for purposes of modifying the nature of ownership of this structure, and will involve no additional land use, density or resource impact. Current City policy allows an exemption from sub- division requirements for the condominiumization of existing duplex structures, and it is further submitted that there is no meaningful distinction between such an exemption and the exemption of a duplex to be completed in the near future. Ordinance 39, as recently passed by the Aspen City Council, requires that owners wishing to condominiumize a duplex must prove that there is no displacement of tenants. The structure in question has just recently been expanded from a single-family structure into a duplex; the new unit has never had an occupant. The original unit was owned by Mr. John D. King, presently of Macatawa, Michigan, for over ten years prior to selling to the present owners in July, 1978. In his letter to Ms. Smith (attached), Mr. King • Ms. Karen Smith December 12, 1978 Page 2. indicates that during the last ten years 1100 Cemetery Lane was used as his "primary residence and not as a rental for employee housing." The structure has been unoccupied since it was purchased in July; upon completion of the remodeling, I plan to move into the unit and vacate a rental unit in Mountain Valley. We would appreciate your earnest consideration of this application. Very truly yours, BLISS ENTERPRISES By Z10C Z6 Steven Hansen SH:rld Enc. $50.00 check Improvement Survey John D.
