MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: steve Burstein, Planning Office RE: 771 ute Avenue Subdivision, and Employee Housing Townhomes Acceptance Rezoning, Conceptual of Cash-in-lieu for DATE: January 19, 1988 ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- LOCATION: 771 ute Avenue, Lots 15B, 16 and 17, ute Addition and Lot 41, section 18, Township 10, Range 84 West, City of Aspen. CURRENT ZONING: L-1 Lodge. PROPOSED ZONING: L-2 Lodge. PROPERTY SIZE: 22,660 square feet. APPLICANT: Kent W. Shodeen. APPLICANT'S REQUEST: The applicant requests rezoning from L-1 to L-2. He is also requesting conceptual subdivision approval and to be excepted from Preliminary Plat review for construction of a nine (9) unit townhome project on the site. Sunny Vann, the applicant's representative, proposes that if staff or P&Z identify any subdivision issues at the conceptual stage requiring further P&Z review, the applicant will consent to completing preliminary plat procedures. Eight (8) units are subject to GMP quota allocation; reconstruction of one (1) unit is exempt from GMP. As part of the GMP application, acceptance of a cash contribution for the equivalent of twelve (12) low-income employees is proposed. BACKGROUND ON SITE: The Lodge at Aspen project received alloca- tion for 31 lodge units on this site in 1981. A GMP amendment for the lodge project was approved in 1986 entailing a decrease in the number of lodge units from 31 to 26 and changes in architec- tural design, building materials, on-site employee configuration, and site design. The lodge GMP allocation expires in March, 1988. PROBLEM DISCUSSION: A. Referral Comments: 1. Engineering Department: In a memorandum dated January 15, 1988 from Jay Hammond the following comments were 1 '""' made as pertain to subdivision review: a. A plat wiil be required pursuant to section 20-15 of the Municipal Code. b. The applicant shall agree to join future improve- ment districts pursuant to language available from the city Attorney's Office. c. The Engineering Department would not support a requirement for a full cul-de-sac, but would support amending any agreement with Aspen alps to provide emergency access through the Alps' property. d. The Engineering Department Attorney on the issue of Mountain Road right-of-way. defers to the size the of City Aspen 2. Water Department: Jim Markalunas stated in his December 15, 1987 memorandum that the Water Department endorses the proposed eight inch diameter interconnect to be installed by the applicant along ute Avenue. He further states that the City hopes to contribute to increasing the size of this line to twelve inch diameter. 3. Aspen Consolidated Sanitation district: Heiko Kuhn stated that the proposed project can be served by the Sanitation District from the ute Avenue sewer line. 4. Environmental Health: Tom Dunlop commented in his December 23, 1987 memorandum with regard to air quality that the project is entitled and limited to one fireplace and one certified woodburning stove. Regard- ing construction, a fugitive dust control plan will be required. Demolition of the existing house on the site can only be done in accordance with the State's regulation on removal and disposal of asbestos. The applicant is advised to contact Environmental Health if mine waste, waste rock or mine dumps are encoun- tered during excavation. ~ 5. Housing Authority: Ann Phillips reported in her January 4, 1988 memorandum that the Housing Authority recom- mended approval of the proposed cash-in-lieu payment of $240,000 due at the time of issuance of a building permit. B. Planning Office Comments: 1. Rezoning: The request to rezone this property from L-1 to L-2 has been reviewed according to the rezoning 2 criteria in section 24-12.5(d) of the Municipal Code as follows: criterion 1: Compatibility of the rezoning proposal with the surrounding zone districts and land use in the vicinity of the site, considering the existing neigh- borhood characteristics, the applicable area and bulk requirements, and the suitability of the site for development in terms of on-site characteristics. Response: The only difference between the present L-1 zone district and the proposed L-2 zone district is that the latter allows multi-family, single family and duplex residences. It should be noted that the current proposal in the code revision under way is to combine the L-1 and L-2 zone districts into a single "Lodge/Tourist Residential (L/TR) zone district," allowing residential uses. We agree with the applicant that this specific rezoning proposal is consistent with the surrounding land uses in the vicinity. There are presently lodge and residential uses in the neighbor- hood. The applicable area and bulk requirements are the same in both zones. The flat portion of the site is, in our opinion, as well suited for a relatively small mUlti-family residential project as for a small lodge. criterion 2: Impacts of the rezoning upon expected traffic generation and road safety, availability of on- and off-street parking and ability to provide utility service in the vicinity of the site, including an assessment of the fiscal impact upon the community of the proposed rezoning. Response: Expected traffic generation is typically higher from a residential project than a lodge project, as confirmed in the Transportation Plan Element and embodied in the proposed Code Rewrite parking require- ments. 18 spaces would be required at one space per residential bedroom, compared to 18.2 spaces at .7 spaces per lodge bedroom for a 26 unit lodge. Impacts on utility services are probably quite similar for comparably sized projects. criterion 3: Impacts of the rezoning upon expected air and water quality in the vicinity of the site. Response: The allowance of one fireplace certified woodburning stove is the same for a tial structure as for a lodge. There appears difference in impacts. and one residen- to be no criterion 4: Analysis of the community need for the 3 ,,-'t. '~ ., m"~' proposed rezoning and assessment of the relationship of the rezoning proposal to the goal of overall community balance. Response: We believe that the tourist-oriented residen- tial units are probably as much in need by the com- munity as is construction and renovation of lodges. One may argue that the townhome serves a typically more affluent market than the lodge unit. staff does not believe that there is a significant difference between the effect of a lodge project and that of a multi- family project located here pertaining to the overall community balance. criterion 5: Compatibility with the Aspen Area General Plan of 1966, as amended. Response: The area requested for rezoning is within the "Mixed Residential" future land use category in the 1973 Aspen Land Use Plan. The intent and purpose of this category is: liTo allow for a mix of residential uses interspersed with limited amounts of professional office and visitor accommodation uses in areas where these conditions presently exist. Only existing lodges should be considered for expansion in order to provide additional guest rooms and new professional offices should be of the type that do not generate frequent client visits." Essentially, this intent does not well fit the area as it has developed to date, nor would appear to be now appropriate. This is one principal reason staff has recommended the L/TR designation for the area. Regard- ing this site, L-2 allowing residential uses is at least as appropriate as L-1 excluding residential uses. criterion 6: Whether the proposed rezoning will promote the health, safety and welfare of the residents and visitors to Aspen. Response: Both zone districts promote Aspen I s health, safety and welfare equally well, in staff's opinion. 2. Subdivision Review: A multi-family residential unit is considered a subdivision according to the defini- tion of Subdivision in Section 20-3(s) (2) of the Municipal Code. This review is for the purpose of giving the city the opportunity to assure that such projects meet the basic criteria of suitability of the land for such purpose and the standards for development in the Subdivision Regulations. 4 section 20-9 of the Subdivision Regulations state the criteria for "suitability of land for subdivision." Our comments in response to this criteria follow. criterion a: Whether findings are made that the land is unsuitable for subdivision by reason of flooding, bad drainage, rock or soil creep, mudflow, rockslide, avalanche or snowslide, steep topography or other potential natural hazards. Response: There is no indication that such natural hazards would prevent development of this site. The drainage issue has been thus far addressed in a fashion to satisfy the Engineering Department that problems can be mitigated. criterion b: The Planning commission may deem land premature for subdivision when subdivision approval would create growth patterns of such physical form and size that governmental inefficiencies, duplication of facilities and unnecessary public costs and financial burdens may result from providing the extension of public services, and planned support facilities cannot be accomplished in a planned, ordered or efficient manner. Response: The development appears to not place any unusual or unmanageable governmental inefficiencies or duplication of facilities. In a general way, we believe that there is a public cost in creating a structure that appears to be too large for the buildable site area and possessing such limited usable open space. It will create additional bulk of structures, density and use of public open spaces. Modifications to the plan decreasing the building size and increasing open space would be more appropriate, in staff's opinion. Following are additional comments regarding the project's compliance with subdivision regulations: 1. Project Improvements: The applicant has shown in his conceptual presentation numerous landscaping improve- ments, installation of a new storm sewer, water line extension, paving, curb and gutter, a hew fire hydrant, and extension of a trail/sidewalk off the site. Greater detail on these commitments should be shown at subse- quent levels of review. Irrigation has not yet been presented, but should be in a future preliminary or final plat submittal. An improvements agreement and guarantee should be prepared following the requirements of section 20-16(c) (1) of the Municipal Code. 5 '. ,<."" 2. Evaluating whether there is an adverse effect upon the surrounding area: section 20-12 (l) of the Preliminary Plat-Contents requires submission of "such preliminary information as may be required by the City Planning Office or other reviewing agency in order to adequately describe proposed utility system drainage plans, surface improvements, or other construction proj ects contemplated within the area to be subdivided in order to assure that the subdivision is capable of being constructed without an adverse effect upon the sur- rounding area." We are concerned that the proposed design does have some adverse effect upon the surrounding area in its size in relation to usable area and lack of usable green space. Even though the residential project does not exceed allowed bulk or density (bedrooms per lot area), it is larger than surrounding multi-family projects and considerably larger than single-family and duplex residences to the east. We note that histor- ically the community has been more accepting of large lodge projects than large residential projects filling up their lots. See Table 1 below for comparative information. One characteristic that decreases the influence of the size of this development upon future development and redevelopment on ute Avenue is that directly east of the site begins the R-6 (PUD) zone district. We suggest that this residential project could better mitigate its impacts on the neighborhood if bulk were reduced to an effective FAR of 1:1 excluding the unbuildable hillside from calculation. This should also make more open space available. The density of 18 bedrooms in 9 units is not inappropriate on this site so close to the Gondola, in our opinion.

Plating: A plat must be submitted according to the standards of section 20-15 of the Municipal Code and meeting the requirements of the Engineering Department. An issue has arisen about the ownership status of the Aspen Mountain Road that should be resolved as part of the platting process. staff recently received a copy of a civil court decree from 1968, known as civil Action No. 3912. Judge Fulghum made a finding that "the lower part of this road (Aspen Mountain Road) has been declared by this Court to be a public highway.. . That the road has an approximate width of 22 feet and a maximum grade of 13 degrees." Subsequently, replating of Lot 15, ute Addition was filed creating Lots 15A and 15B. On this plat the road is should as a private access easement. Through consultation with the city Attorney, staff's preliminary determination is that the private access easement across Lot 15A as well as Lot 15B of the ute Addition is a public road. The width is 22 feet. If so, the plat for Shodeen's property should be corrected and the lot area calculation should be revised. 3. Cash-in-lieu for Employee Housing: The applicant proposes to meet the proj ect ' s employee housing commitment in the GMP process through payment for the equivalent for 12 low-income employees, or $240,000 under current Housing Authority guidelines. city council has discretion in accepting cash- in-lieu, or turning down cash-in-lieu in favor of on-site affordable housing or off-site deed restrictions. The Planning and Zoning Commission discussed this issue on January 12, 1988 as part of the public hearing on revising the zoning code and arrived at general ideas for evaluating alternatives. 7 '.- In assessing the desirability of the cash proposal, staff has considered several factors of location and affordable housing needs associated with the project. No adopted plan shows affordable housing planned for the 771 ute Avenue location. Location of employee housing within the lodge district seems to be somewhat out of character with the tourist orientation; however, the existing house which would be demolished appears to be affordable housing now. The site is well suited for development of affordable housing consi- dering availability of services, proximity to community facilities and environmental constraints. However, the size of the project may make production of employee housing by the applicant infeasible. In addition, the project does not itself require the provision of affordable housing on-site to meet its service needs. Arrangements with the Alps next door have been considered to utilize their management. staff concurs with the Housing Authority that the signifi- cant cash contribution would appear to appropriately off-set employee housing impacts of the 771 ute Avenue project. The contribution will enable the Housing Authority to produce employee housing off site hopefully at the time impacts of this development will be experienced by the community. PLANNING OFFICE RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Rezoning: The Planning Office recommends P&Z to recommend approval of the requested rezoning of Lots 15B, 16 and 17 of the ute Addition and Lot 41, section 18, Township 10, Range 84 West, City of Aspen from the L-1 zone district to the L-2 zone district. 2. Subdivision: The Planning Office recommends P&Z to recommend approval of the requested conceptual subdivision for the 771 ute Avenue Townhouses multi-family project subject to conditions that follow. If P&Z decides that it will not request reduction in the size of the structure or revisions of the site plan proposed in condition 2.a. below then we recommend that this project be excepted from preliminary Plat requirements. In this case, "final plat' should be replaced wherever "preliminary plat" is stated. a. The applicant shall reduce the floor area of the structure to approximately 14-15,000 square feet so to improve compatibility on the buildable portion of the property and to adjacent development and revise the site design so to increase open space and usable green space in the site plan to be submitted as part of the Preliminary Plat application. b. A Preliminary Plat application shall be submitted according to the requirements of sections 20-11 and 20- 8 , ...., 12 of the Municipal Code including: 1. A detailed storm drainage plan shall be submitted. 2 . Survey corrected with regard to the location and ownership of the Aspen Mountain Road and lot area. 3. site/landscape plan showing site improvements described in the 771 ute Avenue GMP application, including but not limited to vegetation to be planted, irrigation system, pedestrian areas, bike rack, benches, and landscape and walkway lighting. c. A statement of subdivision and improvements agreement shall be submitted as part of final plat. Included in this document shall be a development schedule and appropriate financial guarantee for all site improve- ments and off-site improvements described in the 771 ute Avenue GMP application including but not limited to storm sewer, pavement of part of Aspen Mountain Road, curb and gutter, and fire hydrant. Also included shall be agreement to join any improvement district formed that encompasses this property. d. An agreement for emergency access to through the Aspen Alps drive-through from to ute Ave. shall be submitted. this project S. Spring st. e. The applicant will estimate the value of installing the 70 feet long 6 foot wide sidewalk opposite the project on ute Avenue and agree to contribute this sum to the city for pavement of this sidewalk, repairs to the ute Avenue trail or acquisition of a missing trail right- of-way along the ute Avenue trail. This sum of money will be given to the City prior to the issuance of a certificate of Occupancy and will be held in an interest bearing account until the City formally commences that project which the city determined is most needed from the alternatives stated. If no such project is begun after ten (10) years after the submis- sion of the application, then the original contribution and interest payments will be returned to the appli- cant. f. Allocation of eight residential units from the Growth Management Quota must be granted by City council in conjunction with final plat approval, or final plat shall not be approved. 3. Employee Housing: The Planning Office and Housing Authority recommend P&z to recommend acceptance of the cash-in-lieu 9 /'"", '<-".""~ payment for the equivalent of 12 low income employees, as calculated at the time of building permit application, and shall be paid to the Housing Authority prior to issuance of any building permit. 771memo 10 /~'" "'-" CITY OF ASPEN PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION EVALUATION RESIDENTIAL GMP COMPETITION Project: 771 ute Avenue Townhouses Date: Januarv 19. 1988 1.

This interconnect has been advocated by the water department for many years, and has been a condition for providing water service to prior proposed projects in the area since said interconnect would enhance and upgrade supply from storage on Aspen Mountain to the Ute Avenue area and easterly towards the Aspen Club. Since the applicant has committed to construct the interconnect, the water department endorses the project and would provide water in adequate quantities to service the project. Should the project be approved and in the event funds were made available to the water department, the water department would recommend upsizing the eight inch interconnect to a twelve inch main and extending this interconnect easterly from Original Street to a connecting point with the existing 12 inch steel main now located in Ute Avenue in the vicinity of The Gant. cc: Van and Associates ASPEN.PITKIN ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH OEPARTr,..ENT To: MEMORANDUM Steve Burstein, Planning Office / Cindy Houben, Planning Office Thomas S.

The authority for this review is granted to this office, which is a recognized land use referral agency, by the Aspen/Pitkin Planning Office. SEWAGE 'l"REATMEN'I' AND COLLEC'.fION: The applicant has agreed to serve the project with public sewer as provided by the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District. This conforms with Section 1-2.3 of the Pitkin Countv Regul ations On Individual Sewage Disoosal Systems policy to "require the use of public sewer systems wherever and whenever feasible, and to limit the installation of individual sewage disposal systems only to areas that are not feasible for public sewers." t ADEOUATE PROVISIONS FOR WATER NEEDS: The applicant has agreed to serve the project with water provided by the Aspen Water Department distribution system. This conforms with Section 23-55 of the Asoen Municioal Code requiring such projects "which use water shall be connected to the munici- pal water utility system." AIR OUALI'l"Y: Woodburning: There is no mention of inf!tallation of 'any solid fuel burning devices in this submittal. However, in talking to Mr. Sunny Vann, he indicated that there will probably be one fireplace and one certified woodburning stove installed in the building. The appl ication descr ibes "nine (9) individual dwelling units contained in a single multi-family structure." After a review of the architects rendering of the building'it is concluded by this office that the project is, in fact, entitled and limited to one fireplace and one certified woodburning stove. This requirement is described in City of Aspen Ordinance 86-5 which defines type and number of woodburning devices allowed in the City. . .130 S6u~h. G~leria S't;r.eet. Aspen.

Included should be a description of the methods proposed to prevent windblown dust from leaving the project property. This may take the form of dust suppressant chemicals, fencing, watering or other forms of control. Also, the applicant shall develop a method of removing dirt and mud carryout from City streets. This should include picking up dirt and mud that has been deposited on City streets by mechanical means that will not create more dust (eg. mechanical sweeper that uses water). The dust control plan should contain a revegetation plan to address disturbed soil areas after construction is complete. Regulation 1 of the Colorado Air Quality Control Re2ulations and Ambient Air Quality Standards is the governing document requiring the dust control plan. Demol i tion: There is an existing structure on the property that is scheduled to be demolished. Regulation 8 of the Colorado Air Quality Control Reaulations and Ambient Air Quality Standards. titled "The Control of Hazardous Air Pollutants" requires specific caution in removing asbestos containing materials. The owner of this project shall survey the building for asbestos containing materials. If any are found the above regulation will apply concerning removal and disposal.

Their attention to details with reducing unwanted air infiltration in encouraging. Using good doors and windows will help contribute to this overall goal. The use of an air-to-air heat exchanger will help maintain good indoor air quality while helping save energy. This attention to detail goes beyond most proposals we have reviewed. SOLAR ENERGY The availability of solar energy is limited by the building site's location. without a detailed site analysis we cannot define the total solar contribution for space heating. Using low-E, Heat Mirror or other energy- efficient glazing will be very important to maintaining interior comfort levels and minimizing heat loss. The~ack of solar access will limit the "natural solar heating capabilities." with little direct sunlight into the living spaces, the amount of thermal storage or interior colors becomes a moot issue. LIGHTING Although lighting represents a small part-nf the total energy use, we are glad to see it being considered. Specifying energy efficient lighting makes good sense and should be commended. WATER CONSERVATION The low-flow fixtures mentioned sound appropriate though a gallons-per- minute specification would be more defini ti ve. MECHANICAL SYSTEMS There is a strong intent stated in this section to use a high-efficiency heating system. All of the wording sounds good but is is hard to tell just how efficient the system will be.

Employee Housing As we discussed last week, the Building Department's site inspection of the property indicates that the existing single-family structure contains three (3) bedrooms as opposed to two (2) bedrooms as represented in our applica- tion (see letter from Patsy Newbury attached hereto). While the Applicant's commitment to house forty (40) percent of the total project population remains unchanged, the actual number of employees to be housed, and the resulting cash-in-lieu estimate, has been reduced as a result of the increase in bedroom credits. These reduc- tions, however, have no effect on the number of employee points for which the project is entitled and, therefore, should be considered as a technical clarification. Based on the Applicant's belief that the existing struc- ture contained only two (2) bedrooms, the project's free market population was originally calculated to be eighteen and one-half (18 l/2) persons. If we now claim credit for a three (3) bedroom structure, the free market population is reduced to eighteen (l8) persons, and the project's PO Box 8485 . Aspen, Colorado 81612' 303/925-6958 :) Mr. Steve Burstein December 2l, 1987 Page 2 employee population is reduced to twelve (12). As a result, the proposed cash-in-lieu contribution is reduced to approximately $240,000 as opposed to our original estimate of approximately $250,000. Subdivision Exception The Applicant requests that the project be excepted from the preliminary plat procedures of Section 20-ll of the Municipal Code. As noted in our application, we believe that ample opportunity will exist for both P&Z and Council review of the proposed subdivision. The subdivision is relatively simple as it involves the construction of a single, mUlti-family structure and no new lots are to be created. Any plat related conditions which the P&Z might wish to recommend could be addressed by the Council at the final plat stage of review. Should the staff or P&Z identify any subdivision issues at the conceptual stage which would require further P&Z review, the Applicant will consent to completing preliminary plat procedures. With respect to the basis for our request, we believe that no significant benefit would be derived by either the Applicant or the City from full subdivision review if no issues are identified which merit completion of prelimi- nary plat procedures. A requirement to complete this step in the absence of any demonstrable benefit would be redundant, serve no public purpose and represent a significant hardship to the Applicant. Furthermore, the granting of the exception would not be detrimental to the pUblic welfare or injurious to other property in the immediate site area and ample precedence for such a request readily exists. The project's final plat will comply with all applicable subdivision requirements. Rezoning As you know, Section 24-l2.5(d) sets forth various criteria which the P&Z shall consider, to the extent that they are applicable, in reviewing a request for rezoning. Summarized below are our comments with respect to those criteria we believe to be applicable to the rezoning request in question. 1. site as which is The 1973 Aspen Land Use Plan depicts the project "Recreation/Accommodations", a land use category intended to "allow for recreation and accommoda- '" '.....,I Mr. Steve Burstein December 21, 1987 Page 3 tion needs...in an area that is especially suited...". A portion of the site also appears to be within the "Recrea- tion/Accommodations Transition" category which allows similar uses but of a more limited scale. The intent of the requested L-2 zone district is consistent with both of these land use categories and, therefore, with the City's adopted land use plan. 2. Existing land uses in the immediate site area, while consistent with the intent of the Land Use Plan, are inconsistent with underlying zoning. For example, the adjacent Aspen Alps Condominiums are multi-family struc- tures which are routinely short-termed in the accommoda- tions market. The Alps property, however, is presently zoned L-l, a category which prohibits multi-family structures. 3. The Applicant's proposed multi-family project is consistent with surrounding condominium land uses and the neighborhood's general characteristics. 4. The applicable area and bulk requirements of the proposed L-2 zone district are identical to those of the property's existing L-l classification. In fact, the only significant difference in the two zone district clas- sifications is in the area of permitted uses. Single- family, duplex and multi-family residences are permitted in L-2 and prohibited in L-l. 5. The project site is, we believe, more ap- propriately suited for residential development than for a lodge. The Applicant's proposed multi-family structure is more consistent with the character and scale of surround- ing development and provides a "transitional" between the more intense lodge development to the northwest and the detached, residential properties to the east. 6. The proposed rezoning will not increase traffic generation, reduce the availability of on-street parking or adversely affect the availability of utilities in the immediate site area. Similarly, rezoning of the property will not adversely affect air and water quality. In fact, implementation of the Applicant's project subsequent to rezoning will promote the health, safety and general welfare of the residents and visitors to the City (e.g., see discussion of the numerous improvements to be under- taken by the Applicant in our GMP application). " ~ Mr. Steve Burstein December 2l, 1987 Page 4 As we noted in our application, the Planning Office staff has recommended, and both the P&Z and Council have conceptually agreed, to merge the L-l/L-2 zone districts to form a new category referred to as L/TR, Lodge/Tourist Residential. Inasmuch as this new category incorporates the permitted land uses of both existing zone districts, it is reasonable to assume that both the staff and officials have concluded that the L-l/L-2 districts are consistent with the adopted Land Use Plan and that the uses they allow are appropriate for the property in question.

January 25, 1988 Charles Cunniffe Charles Cunniffe & Associates P.O. Box 3534 Aspen, CO 81612 RE: Shodeen Townhomes Additional Systems Info~~ation Dear Charles: I talked to Steve Standeford of the Roaring Fork Energy Center concerning the type of information which would be most effective for obtaining a full point value in the Aspen Planning Department evaluation of proposed systems. Simply stated, he felt it would be to our advantage to not only discuss the state-of-the-art systems as we did, but to put a quantifying value on them. In reviewing each of the categories, my percentage improvement on the decrease in nonrenewable energy sources will be compared to the standard of construction in a typical area where environmen- tal concerns are minimal. For example, we, on the Shodeen project, are proposing lighting fixtures and lighting design which not only utilizes the latest in high efficiency lighting, but recognize the value of task lighting rather than having high overall lighting levels. For example, most state-of-the-art fluorescent light bUlbs currently available not only have wattage decreases for ,the same ~umens in the neighborhood of 20 to 35%, but by utilizing the color correc- ted bulbs, even greater perceived brightness can be obtained. If we were to compare our design for this project to a typical tract residence in Denver, our design will save a minimruu of 20% in annual lighting energy utilization. Xn discussing the building enve~ope, we talked about the use of Tyvek as an exterior infiltration barrier. The dramatic reduc- tion in infiltration which can be attributed to Tyvek, based on OUr personal experience, is at least a 40%. The infiltration component of the typical residence can be as much as 60% of the building heat loss. The use of Tyvek alone should provide an expected decrease in annual heating requirements by 25%. Because I Benchmark Plaza, Suite 3D? Po. Box 5740., Avon, Colorado 81620. 303-949-1191.1-80.0.,332,3259 CD Only , , ''''~'''' - infiltration is such a high component of a building's heat loss, the use of quality windows and doors and the quality hardware associated with them provides at least a 10% reduction in annual energy usage not only when the structure is new but over an ex- tended period of use. Other building envelope requirements for this project include extreme concern to see that any breaks in the envelope for win- dows, doors, duplex outlets, light switches, etc. are sealed. While I don't wish to put a percentage on it, the regular review during construction that we intend to perform will at least push the possibility of energy savings in the right direction. In simplY stating the insulation on the building will be R19 walls and R38 roofs, we ignore again the attention to detail. It becomes quite obvious that the care used by the installer cah dramatically effect how consistent the design R values are to the real R values. While I don't feel we should try to quantify savings related to care and workmanship OUr intent to carefully review the project during construction will again push the over- all energy utilization in the right direction toward savings. I didn't detail the mechanical systems efficiencies numerically. If you compare a modular gas fired boiler system, which we are proposing, to a conventional large single boiler, the proven savings are a minimum of 10%. Our intent is to use primary/ secondary pumping so that standby losses on anr Of the boiler modulars which are not firing will be minimized and is worth an additional savings of at least 5% so the projected annual energy savings Of our proposed modular system compared to a conventional large boiler system is a minimum of 15%. When you consider that the standard gravity fired boiler is operating at an annual efficiency at elevation of about 60%, our system will be in the neighborhood of about 75% without any un- usual or high maintenance items. We can obviOUSly utilize some of the new condensing boilers with listed efficiencies approaChing the 90% area but we are reluctant to do that for several reasons. In the first place, the condensing boilers have liquid condensate waste which can be highly acidic and require special considerations for their disposal. We feel this will negatively impact the environment from a waste standpoint and thus the true efficiency of a condensing hoiler or furnace on a macro environmental evaluation must be less. Secondly, a careful analysis of the system components going into high efficiency boilers indicates that they are typically not cast iron and have many components which are subject to failure. On a long range basis with minimal maintenance, we would project a modular boiler system with very basic components to have an "ignorance to main- tenance" efficiency increase over a complex hoiler system Of at 2 least 10%. And if we were to add that to our expected annual efficiency of 75% with our proposed system we are really within the 85% range with minimum environmental pollution. When we talked about plumbing we talked about "low-flow" fix- tures. We know there are low flow shower heads for example which will provide a good rinsing flow of water at two and half gallons per minute. We think anything less than that will subject the shower heads to tampering and eventual replacement which defeats the whole intent of low flow heads. We also intend to use 3 gpm flow restrictors on all lavatory and sink faucets. Again by using aerator faucets, we feel tha't we can obtain the low flow on a consistent basis without the possibility of tampering and re- placement. We stated that when considering glazing we were going to use the low E glass for all glass within 6' of the floor. Most tests indicate ,that a low E glass R value is at least a 30% imprOvement over conventional thermal pane. It is more difficult to evaluate the sense of warmth that low E provides. We YJ10W that low E glass will permit people adjacent to it to still feel comfortable at a lower room temperature. But for the sake of argument, let's only claim that the low E glass annual energy savings is 30% over conventional glass. Finally, we made a general comment concerning overall system components being selected for efficiency, There are many some- what "hidden" ways to obtain improved efficiencies. The selec- tion of pumps for example. The careful selection of a pump to operate within its maximum efficiency range has long range impli- cations. Rather than rule of thumb selection methods, careful calculation of pipe ~ction losses means the pumps on this pro- ject should be at least 20% more efficient than generically selected circulation pumps. I hope these comments will clarify the intent of our original comments and quantify them in a manner ~hich can be evaluated on a less SUbjective basis.

Box 8485 Aspen, Colorado 8l6l2 RE: Street Improvements on Ute Avenue Dear Sunny: ?li '. In follow-up to our discussions of yesterday, I am writing regarding our recommended score of 2 points for road improvements in the vicinity of the proposed 771 Ute Avenue project. The Engineering Department is generally pleased with the provision of an easement along the Aspen Mountain Road as well as proposed paving and landscaping improvements along the Aspen Mountain Road and Ute Avenue frontages. There are apparently continuing problems regarding the design of the Ute Avenue dead-end segment adjacent to the property. The Engineering Department, views the proposed design as adequate and advantageous in several ways: l. The design would allow.for turn around movements of passenger vehicles and small delivery'vehicles (A.A.S.B.O. designation WPW) by utilizing the driveway entry and backing out into Ute Avenue. Width is not available within the existing right-of-way to increase the turnaround capabil ity to handle larger standard vehicles. 2. The configuration of the existing right-of-way was defined by the City in leasing the wmallw area to the Alps. It would be inappropriate to extract additional right-of-way for a cul-de-sac from this applicant. 3. The street does not function as access to any other properties. It does function as egress only for the small volumes of traffic from the adjacent 'Alps Condominium. ,The majority of whatever traffic may enter this area would probably be entering the 771 Ute project. Further, the dead~end configuration will be entirely visible from the Original/Ute intersection which may discourage inadvertent entry by drivers seeking other properties. , 4. The proposed design will improve several existing conditions <, .... ..J Page Two January 26, 1988 Street Improvements on Ute Avenue including: a. Paved width. The existing paved area is about 14 feet wide. b. Sight distances. The design will remove a fence and bushes which currently obstruct the sight of vehicles existing the Alps property. In conclusion, the Engineering Department finds the proposed design for Ute Avenue beneficial within the confines of the existing right-of-way. Anticipated traffic volumes are sufficiently minor that we would anticipate no particular impacts of congestion or conflict and we would continue to support a recommended GMP score of 2 points for roads.

He does, however, intend to appeal to Council for sufficient quota to allow the project to continue, and has submitted a letter in support of his request to Steve Burstein. As you know, the GMP allocation for the previously approved Lodge at Aspen will expire on March 3, 1988. Given the uncertainty of Mr. Shodeen receiv1ng a residen- tial allocation and/or a GMP extension, he has no choice but to proceed with perfecting his lodge approval. Cunniffe & Associates is presently preparing construction documents for the project and will submit them to the Building Department on or before March 3, thereby comply- ing with the provisions of Section 24-ll.7 of the Code. Similarly, all conditions of GMP approval are also being addressed and will be met as required. While we expect to be able to meet the March deadline, it may be necessary to request a slight extension in order to fully complete the construction documents. As you suggested, however, we will not file such a request until P ("1 [_1:,.>, ,. ..

The effort expended by Mr. Shodeen between now and March 3 will constitute in. part the diligence that must be demonstrated in order to be eligible for an extension.

MEMORANDUM TO: Alan Richman, Planning Director Paul Taddune, City Attorney FROM: steve Burstein, Planning Office RE: civil Action No. 3912-John F. Coughenour, Jr. and James W. Stalder Vs. Roger D. Mahnke, The Building Inspector of the City of Aspen, et al. DATE: January 12, 1988 ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- On August 1, 1968, Judge Carl W. Fulghum made a finding that the road extending from ute Avenue through and beyond Coughenours I property(Aspen Mountain Road) is a "public road". The road has an approximate width of 22 feet and a maximum grade of 130. (Finding #2, see pages 1, 2, and 3 attached.) The 771 ute Avenue Residential GMP Application shows the Aspen Mountain Road as a private easement across Shodeen I s property. As part of the application, the road easement would be widened to 10 feet and the applicant would pave the road. The applicant is using the area under the road easement as part of the lot area for the purpose of calculating FAR. Do you agree that Aspen Mountain Road appears to be a public road rather than a private easement? If so, the survey and lot area calculations should be corrected. sb.771 " ~ .. ,It", ........l.--..

JUDGMENT AND ORDER Plaintiffs. brought this action to compel the Building Inspector of Aspen to issue a building permit for the construction of a 19-unit condominium which was to be built by the plaintiff Stalder upon land owned by the plaintiff Coughenour. The plaintiffs alleged that the building plans and specifications for their pro- ject meet substantially all lawful requirements of the building and zoning ordinances of the City of Aspen and that plaintiffs are entitled to be issued a building permit. Plaintiffs further allege that the building permit was rejected because of the action taken by the Aspen Planning and Zoning Coum1ssion and that the building inspector acted arbit~arily and capriciously in the ~ ,. ," ". ", ,~ exercise of his discretion. and that he has abused his discretion in the performance of the duties of his office. There was a further allegation that the defendants in the exercise of thair official functions have exceeded their jurisdiction and have abused their discretion in refusing to issue a permit. and that by reason of said acts or omiBsions on the part of the defendants the plaintiffs have 110 pLdn. speedy and adequate remedy at law. The defendants in their. an~wer deny these allegations and as an affirmative defense state that the building i.nspector denied the permit, that the City of Aspen has adopted a major street plan. and that ~he reason the building inspector denied the permit is that the street .alleged to give HCCf'S8 to th~ bllilding lot is not open or accepted and does not hnva the legal status of a public street and do{~s not correspond ",ith Ilny 8treet shown on the official master plan or with a street or subdivision plat approved by the Planning Commission or with a street on a map platted by and adopted by the co~~ission or with a street adopted by the council after submission to the Planning Commission. The tri.d was had ,to the Court, and the Court being now well , informed finds the facts to be as follows: 1. That the plaintiff Coughenour is the owner of the land described in the complaint. 2. That there is 11 road extending from Ute Avenue in Aspen, Colorado, to the propert.y owned by the plaintiff Coughenour and that the road extends through and beyond said property. That the lower part of this road hall been declared by this Court to be a public highway, that said road has h.:en used by the public for more Cnan thirty ye.elIs for hauling ora and fa): motor vehicle travel 2' ~ - -- -----~---,--- ! 1 ~" " .",", to the top of Aspen Mountain. No one has protested the use of said road except a man who owned adjoining property where said road leaves Ut~ Avenue. and this "-eRulted in this Court 'adjudging that the road through the land of a man named Billing8 is a public highway. That the road has an approximate width of 22 feet and a maximl~ grade of 130. That the plaintiff Coughenour proposed to hent ",lid rQaQ in the w:l.nter time to melt off snow and ice. That said road serves other property besides the property involved in thiu action. 3. That the plaintiffs made application for a building permit to build a 19-un1t cOlldOln~,n:l."'-m on the described land and filed this applica!:ion for peX"mit with the builcling inspector. 4. That th~ plaintiffs had Beveral conversations with the building insp<'~tor. at tolhich time a~cess and utilities t.ere discussed. That preli.m1.nary plans were shown to the building inspector. that the building inspector had no objection to the proposed construction. but on the contrary stated that the city would favor such location as it was 10cated out of the core area. That working plans were shown to the building inspector. and there were no objections. That at this f'-nt meeting berore the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission the commis~i0n pas3~d a m~otion not to review the plana. This motion carried. and the plans were returned to the building inapector. That a hearing waa then held before the City of Aspen Board of Adjustment on June 21. 1968. in which all questions concerning the propoalild building permit and the llse of the proplilrty were gone into and no defInite aclion was taken at that time as the board decided to awail: the receipt of a legal opinion. On June 28. 1968. the board having received a legal opinion. the Board of Adjustment -3- i , f . , J . . i l determined that it did not have jurisdiction in this matter. In between the two meetings of the Board of Adjustment. on June 25 there was another meeting before the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission. and again the matter of the building permit was taken up and discussed with the result that a motion to recommend dis- approval to the building inspector of plans submitted for con- struction of this particular condominium was passed and adopted by the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission. 5. That the plaintiffs in this cause exhausted all admin- istrative procedures before having resort to court action., 6. On the 16th day of May. 1966. the 'Aspen City Council adopted a master plan as recommended by the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission. This in reality was an adoption of what has been termed the Aspen Area General Plan Final Report. 1966. intro- duced in this cause as Defendants' Exhibit No.6. On page 4 appears a map of the General Plan. Aspen Urban Area. which shows no road extending frOlD Ute Avenue acroas the face of Aspen Mountain. but , " does indicate there i8 somewhere across the face of the mountain a horseback trail that goes across the face of the mountain and then back down ,to,the_Clty of Aspen. But no road is 4iJhown going across the face of Aspen Mountain and to the top of said mountain. although such road has existed for over thirty years. Pages S and 6 show a general plan of the Aspen area and again no road or highway 18 shown across Aspen Mountain. PagQ 22 shows a map of the circu- lation 1n the Aspen area. and again no road is shown across Aspen Mountain. but there is a horsebeck trail as shown on page 4 of thi. report. Whether this road was left off the map by d..iIR. igRorance or accident is not known to this Court. The clrcu1at1on I ---------.,~--_...., .._- ---- ":j J -4- ~ <',., ...~ .... ,. ,.., -- .,. . --...,.,:.- ,.--','. ,." /' .... 1 , . ...... ,",,'0 ' plan of the Aspen Area General Plan was never approved by the County Commissioners of Pitkin County, but as to that part of the plan it was taken under advisement as requiring additional study and investigation. This is of importance because at the time that the General Plan was adopted by the City Council the road or high- way in question was not within the limits of the City of Aspen. 7. After the adoption of the General Plan and prior to the filing of the application for a building permit by the plain- tiffs, the City of Aspen accomplished the annexation of the terri- tory known 4S South Annexation. This territory includes the land. owned by the plaintiffs and also includes the road which is in question in this matter. So far as this Court is informed, after , , the annexation nothing was done by the City of Aspen relative to the streets and roads included within such annexation, but the City Engineer, who is also the Building Inspector of the City of Aspen, prepared a map of the South Annexation which was introduced herein as Plaintiffs' Exhibit B-16. On this map the City Engineer di,d make a drawing of a road which is the road in question here, showing its extension from the edge of Lot IS up to the lands of the plaintiffs. The City Engineer, who testified as a witness, stated that he did know that such a road existed and extended to the top of Aspen Mountain, as he had traveled the road himself and that this highway was open to use by the public and was used without permission of any person. The City Engineer when testifying as a witness, and he also testified as Building Inspector, stated that he thought the road was a private road because it went over private land, but when questioned as to why he applied that test he vas unable to explain why it had necessarily followed that a -5- ~ j l , 1 j .'.---, ----~~'------~----- .'11' . ! , ~' ,''''- -' ;". ~",'" road passing over private lands had to be a private road. The map prepared by the City Engineer was never filed with the County Clerk and Recorder. 8. The Court finds that the road extending from the lands owned by Dean Billings to the lands owned by the plaintiff Coughenour is a public road and is as of the date of this hearing in general use by the public without opposition or interference by any person. The Court further finds that this particular piece of road had tbe status of a public highway or road for many years prior to the time of the filing of the application for a building permit herein. FUrther, that a portion of this road or highway was declared by this Court to be a public road or highway prior to the time of the filing of the application for a building permit hereln, and that the particular road in question in this suit i. an extension of that road or highway heretofore declared by this Court to be a public highway. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW: 1. The City Building Inspector stated that hi. .ole reaSOn for rejecting the application for the building permit was because a major street plan had been adopted for the territory within the corporate limits of Aspen and that no building could be erected on any lot within such territory and no building permit could be issued therefor unless the street giving access to the lot on which this building is proposed to be placed shall have been accepted or opened as, or shall otherwise have received the legal status of, a public street prior to that time. Colorado Revised Statutes, 1963, Section 139-59-18, states that after the time wheo a planniol commission shall have adopted a major street plan of the territory -6- -- _.~--~--------_. >-_.. " .. Il a - ~~ \ ~ ~ " ~ 1 :. , I . i t ~ . /' y--, /' ''\...' '\ """'~'" within the corporate limits of said municipality, no building shall be erected on any lot within such territory or part, nor shall a building permit be issued therefor, unless the street giving access to the lot upon which such building 1s proposed to be placed shall have been accepted or opened as or shall otherwise have received the legal status of a public street prior to tbat time. This particular parcel of land and the road was not within the corporate l1mits of the muniCipality when the major street plan of the territory was adopted, and the plan was not appcoved by the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County, Colorado. So far as the Court i8 informed, no action has ever been taken by the City of Aspen to include this road within the major street , plan or to exclude it. But regardless of that, the City of A.pen was on notice that there existed such a road and highway through a part of the territory to be annexed, as the road was visible on the ground and was used by the public generally and at least by one city offic1al. If the view 1s taken that this road was subject to the major street plan, then we must consider the exception in sub-paragraph (b) of Section 139-59-18 quoted above, and this road falls with1n that exception. There is no question but what this was a public road prior to the time of the adoption of the major street plan, and the adoption of the major street plan did not in any way change or alter the character or use of thiscparticular road. The continued use of the public without interruption and without any protest of any kind for a period of over thirty years had given to this road the legal status of a public street or road, and prior to the time that the major street plan was adopted. Therefore, this road is not within the prOVisions of Section -7- Ii J -,-....... _.. r " '. 139-59-18. I I , I , r'~ I I ) 2. Tbe Building Inspector of tbe City of Aspen was in error in relying upon the provisions of said Section 139-59-18. but bis error might be excused because of the fact that a legal determination of tbe nature of the street had not at that time been made, although the street had all the qualifications for such and was in fact a public street or road. The Court wishes to call attention to the fact that although the statute uses the term "public street." that under the definition of terms in 139-59-1 of tbe Colorado Revised Statutes of 1963, the term "streets" includes roads and other ways of travel. It cannot be said that the determination that thia ia a public road came after the application for the building permit and, therefore, Section 139-59- 18 applied as of the time of the filing of tbe application for a building permit, as the legal status of this road had extended for a long period of time prior to that time and the finding of the Court in this case merely confirms what had been the legal status of this road over a long period of time before the filing of the application for a building permit. The Court concludes as a matter of law that 8S of this time there has been nothing shown to this Court which would lead the Court to the conclusion that a granting of the permit to build would in any way be a violation of any statute of the State of Colorado or of the building and zoning codes of the City of Aspen, Colorado. IT IS. ntEREFORE, ORDERED. ADJUDGED AND DECREED BY THE COURT that the Building Inspector of the City of Aspen, Colorado, do forthwith issue to the plaintiffs a building permit a8 applied for. -8- - '-"--~-"'--'--"-' ----- ',,- --".

It should be noted that the project site, which was previously owned by Lyle D. Reeder, was the recipient of a thirty-one (31) unit lOdge growth management allocation in February of 1982. Mr. Reeder subsequently amended his application in August of 1986, at which time the lodge was reduced to twenty-six (26) units and it's architectural design extensively modified. Inasmuch as growth manage- ment allocations cannot be separated from the property for which they are approved, Mr. Shodeen is now the current holder of Mr. Reeder's lodge allocation as a result of his acquisition of the property. Mr. Shodeen, however, is prepared to relinquish his lodge allocation should his residential growth management application be approved. ,- While the Applicant has attempted to address all relevant provisions of the Municipal Code, and to provide sufficient information to enable a thorough evaluation of the application, questions may arise which result in the staffts request for further information and/or clarifica- tion. To the extent required, the Applicant would be pleased to provide additional information in the course of the application's review. - - 3 - II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Applicant proposes to demolish an existing single-family residence located on the property and to construct nine (9) new dwelling units in a mUlti-family configuration. The project, to be known as the 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes, will be condominiumized and offered for sale as second homes to part-time, seasonal residents. The project's employee housing requirement will be met via a cash-in-lieu payment to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority. A separate application for condominiumization will be submitted in the event the project receives a development allocation. A more detailed description of the Applicant's development proposal is provided below. A. Water System - Water service to the project will be provided via a new eight (8) inch water main to be paid for and installed by the Applicant. The new water main will connect the existing twelve (12) inch main located at the south end of Spring Street to the six (6) inch main in Original Street near its intersection with Ute Avenue. The Aspen Water Department has indicated that the Ap- plicantts installation of the new main will provide a much needed interconnect, and that the municipal water system has sufficient capacity to accommodate the project (see Appendix B, Exhibit I). The preliminary plumbing fixture 4 - - '~ - count for the project is twenty-four (24) toilets, thirty- four (34) lavatories, thirty (30) bath tUbs/showers, nine (9) sinks, nine (9) dishwashers, and approximately thirteen (13) hose bibs. B. Sewage System The project will be served by the existing ten (10) inch sanitary sewer located in Ute Avenue. According to the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District, anticipated flows can be accommodated with no improvements to existing sewer lines or to the treatment plant (see Appendix B, Exhibit 2). C. Drainage - The project's storm drainage system will be designed to maintain historic flow rates with respect to surface water runoff and groundwater recharge. On-site drywells and/or surface detention facilities will be utilized to intercept and detain runoff from building roofs and impervious areas, and to control the rate of groundwater recharge. These facilities will also function to remove current peak loading conditions thereby reducing impacts upon the existing storm sewer in Original Street. A detailed drainage plan will be prepared and submitted to the City Engineer in conjunction with further subdivision review. The plan will take into account the property's - - 5 - - existing infiltration/percolation rates and the effect of landscape irrigation in the design of the project's detention facilities. In order to alleviate existing drainage problems in the immediate site area, the Applicant proposes to install a new storm sewer in the portion of Aspen Mountain Road which abuts the Shodeen property. The new storm sewer will intercept existing surface runoff from the upper portions of Aspen Mountain Road via a catch basin to be installed at the property's southeast corner. The recently installed, temporary catch basin located near the propertyts northeast corner will be relocated as required. The drainage improvements will be constructed in conjunc- tion with the Applicant's paving of Aspen Mountain Road and the installation of curb and gutter along the proper- ty's eastern and northeastern boundaries (see Section II.F. for a detailed description of the Applicant's proposed improvements to Aspen Mountain Road). D. Fire Protection - Fire protection will be provided by the Aspen Volunteer Fire Department. The project site is located approximately eight (8) blocks from the fire station, resulting in a response time of approximately three (3) to five (5) minutes (see Appendix B, Exhibit 3). To enhance fire protection, a new hydrant will be installed by the Applicant at the property's northeast corner. The exact 6 - - - - - location of the new hydrant will be determined in coopera- tion with the City Engineer and Water Department. The construction of the 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes will conform to all applicable fire protection regulations of the Uniform Building Code. E. Development Data ",I The 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes project consists of nine (9) individual dwelling units contained in a single multi-family structure. More specifically, the project contains three (3) three-bedroom townhouse units, three (3) two-bedroom townhouse units, and three (3) one- bedroom flats. Eighteen (18) parking spaces, or one (1) space per bedroom will be provided subgrade. Two (2) additional guest/service vehicle spaces will also be provided adjacent to the street in conjunction with the Applicant's installation of sidewalk, curb and gutter along Ute Avenue. .. - - - Each unit will have its own unique floor plan and will vary in size from approximately one thousand (1,000) square feet to thirty-four hundred (3,400) square feet. The sales prices of the units will be dictated by market conditions, but are anticipated to range from approximately $350,000 to $1,200,000.

Pursuant to Section 24-ll.2(a) of the Municipal Code, the reconstruction of an existing building is exempt from the Cityts growth management allotment procedures provided, however, there is no creation of additional dwelling units. As a result, a growth management alloca- tion for eight (8) units will be required to develop the project. In order to verify the existing dwelling unit, an application for a demolition permit will be submitted to the Building Department upon receipt of a development allocation. F.

Applicant proposes to increase the existing six (6) foot Aspen Mountain Road easement which traverses the proper- ty's eastern boundary to ten (10) feet, and to install a sixteen (16) foot paved road surface. The Applicant will also install curb and gutter along one side of the Road and, as noted previously, a new storm sewer. The proposed improvements will greatly improve the condition, safety and quality of both Ute Avenue and Aspen Mountain Road. With respect to parking, the applicable Code requirement for the L-I, Lodge zone district is one (1) space per bedroom. Eighteen (18) parking spaces, all of which are located subgrade, will be provided on-site for t..;\..y" """I) ol\u.. jO"!' p~' 1< 7 the project's residents. Two (2) additional spaces will - be provided adjacent to Ute Avenue for guest/service - - parking purposes. Given the second home character of the "1,,J!!.J~"ill., ~~ IN')I ",.) [t.f~,t n, /ltf I1vfn',"'f"....,M"", jPl1iIT,h'"jllfJ,ti,f'" (~hle 11 ... ... 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes, the proposed parking should be more than adequate for a project of this scope. The subgrade parking garage will be accessed at the end of Ute Avenue, thereby eliminating the need for a curb cut on Aspen Mountain Road, the more intensely utilized of the two potential access points. As a result, traffic circulation in the immediate site area should not be adversely affected. G. Location - The Shodeen property is located in the heart of Aspen's eastend lodge/condominium district. The Aspen Mountain Ski Area is located within one (I) block walking distance northwest of the property, and the City's commer- cial core area, a block further to the north. Similarly, City Market is conveniently located approximately two and one-half (2-1/2) blocks north of the property while Rubey Park, the hub of the City's mass transportation system, is located approximately four (4) blocks to the northwest. Original Street, which abuts the property, provides convenient access via Main Street and State Highway 82 to Aspen Valley Hospital and the pitkin County Airport. As discussed in Section II.F., all municipal bus routes currently utilize Durant Avenue, which is located within two (2) blocks of the property. In summary, the Shodeen property enjoys an excellent location relative to the City's various public facilities and commercial areas. ,- - - - - - - 12 - - Given the size of the proposed project, and its second home, seasonal character, no significant impact upon these facilities is anticipated. H. Impact on Adjacent Uses The Shodeen property is zoned L-l, Lodge as are , , the adjacent properties to the north, south and west. The area east of the property is zoned R-6, Residential and P, Public. Existing land uses in the immediate site area include the Aspen Alps Condominiums which essentially surround the property to the north, west and southwest; the Ajax Condominiums located adjacent to the property's southwestern boundary; Glory Hole Park and the Clarendon Condominiums to the east; and several single-family/duplex residential structures to the northeast and southeast. The immediate site area is essentially fully developed, although the older residential structures to the southeast of the property can be considered targets for redevelopment, given the condition of the structures .- and the value of the property which they occupy. The - project is consistent with the intent of the proposed L/TR, Lodge/Tourist Residential zone district (see Section IV.A., Rezoning) and is compatible with surrounding land ((rtO"IVlJ t:Pnl-rrl'l > t:'~P' - uses. As a result, the functional character of this area - - of the City's lodge/condominium district will be unaf- - fected by the Applicant's proposal. In fact, it can be - argued that the redevelopment of the Shodeen property as - 13 - ], proposed will not only eliminate a existing unsightly and " non-conforming land use, but will greatly enhance this area of the City, thereby positively impacting the property's adjacent land uses. I. Construction Schedule The target date for commencement of construction is the Spring of 1988, with completion of the project anticipated by the end of the year. Phased construction of the project is not anticipated at this time. / ---'. J. Employee Housing Proposal The Applicant proposes to satisfy the employee housing requirement of Section 24-11.4(c) of the Municipal Code via the payment of an employee housing dedication fee which will be based on the formula for such fees contained in the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authorityts 1987 ..';~ Employee Guidelines. More specifically, the Applicant proposes to pay a dedication fee which is equivalent to - housing twelve and one-half (12-1/2) low income employees, ---------- or forty (40) percent of the total number of persons to be - housed by the project as a whole. The above dedication - fee is estimated to be approximately $250,000. The exact - amount, however, will be determined in cooperation with - the Housing Authority prior to the issuance of a building - permit for the project. The payment of the fee will - - comply with all applicable guidelines. - 14 - III. GROWTH MANAGEMENT REVIEW CRITERIA The following section addresses the various review criteria against which the proposed project will be evaluated. The information contained herein represents the Applicantts best effort at compliance with both the letter and intent of the criteria. We believe that in every category the proposed project meets or exceeds the minimum applicable standard. Based on our understanding of the various criteria, and the project's compliance therewith, we have taken the liberty of requesting what we believe to be an appropriate score in each review cate- gory. Please reference as necessary the appropriate headings in section II of this application for detailed information in support of the Applicant's representations and commitments. A. Availability of Public Facilities and Services The proposed projectts impact facilities and services is described below. upon public - - 1. Water Supply. The project in and of itself improves the quality of service in the immediate site area. The Aspen Water Department has indicated that the Applicant's installation of a new eight (8) inch intercon- nect in Ute Avenue will not only provide for the needs of the proposed project but will "definitely upgrade water service for the surrounding neighborhood." - - - - - - - - IS - Requested Score: 2 Points 2. Sewage Disposal. The project may be handled by the existing level of service in the area. The Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District has indicated that the existing ten (IO) inch line located in Ute Avenue is adequate to serve the project and that system upgrades will not be required. Requested Score: 1 Point 3. Storm Drainage. The project in and of itself improves the quality of service in the immediate site area. The project will maintain historic flow rates with respect to surface water runoff and groundwater recharge, thereby complying with the storm drainage design requirements of the City's Engineering Department. The proposed stormwater drainage system will reduce peak condition impacts on the existing storm sewer system while the installation of a new storm sewer in Aspen Mountain Road will help eliminate a substantial drainage problem which currently exists in the area. Requested Score: 2 Points 4. Fire Protection. The project in and of , .. itself improves the quality of service in the immediate I. site area. The Shodeen property is located approximately ".. eight (8) blocks from the Aspen Volunteer Fire Department, resulting in a response time of approximately three (3) to ,.. '. 16 ,. 10~ ~",. hlillV,'vJ JY:ilol,il! five (5) minutes. Although an existing fire hydrant is located approximately one hundred and fifty (150) feet from the site on Ute Avenue, an additional hydrant will be provided by the Applicant at the northeast corner of the property. The provision of an additional fire hydrant will significantly improve fire protection in the sur- rounding neighborhood. Requested Score: 2 Points 5. Parking. As discussed in Section II.F., I. "Ii, U"",',' total of eighteen (18) on-site &,,1 f~\t'M the project will contain a parking spaces, all of which will be provided in a subgrade parking garage. The parking to be provided is in compliance with the requirements of Section 24-4.5 of the Municipal Code, and should be more than adequate given the second home, seasonal nature of the project. While the 1 two (2) proposed spaces to be provided adj acent to Ute 1s ~ ""Wj h , Avenue cannot technically be counted for parking purposes, w~J,.,.JJ plf f4>1< . they will nonetheless provide additional safe and con- venience parking for guest/service vehicles. The Ap- - plicantts installation of two (2) new parallel parking - spaces along Ute Avenue represents a substantial improve- ment to the area's existing parking situation. - The project's individual parking spaces comply - - with all applicable design standards and are conveniently - accessed via Ute Avenue. The subgrade parking garage will - be paved, drained and s~bwmelted where appropriate to I~, - 17 - - ensure safe ingress and egress. The Applicant's location of all required parking below grade will enhance safety, provide added convenience to the project's residents, and virtually eliminate visual impact upon adjacent property owners and users of the public street system. Requested Score: 2 Points 6. Roads. The project in and of itself improves the quality of service in the immediate site area. The Engineering Department has indicated that the 1,IiII adjacent street network has sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed project. Nonetheless, the Applicant proposes to significantly upgrade both Ute Avenue and the Aspen Mountain Road. As discussed in Section II.F., the existing Aspen Mountain Road easement across the property will be increased and the Road paveq along the property's eastern boundary. -- ---- Curb and gutter --- will be installed along portions of both streets and the public right-of-way landscaped. These improvements will not only enhance the appearance of the streetscape but will significantly improve vehicular and pedestrian safety and circulation in the immediate site area. Requested Score: 2 Points - B. Quality of Design - - The quality of the project's design is discussed - below. Please note that the Shodeen property is located - 18 - - outside of the City's commercial Core Historic Overlay District. As a result, Historic Preservation Commission review and approval of the project's architecture is not required. 1. Neighborhood Compatibility. The 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes have been designed to be compatible with existing neighboring development and to reflect the transitional nature of the Shodeen property. Given the diverse architectural character of the immediate site area, considerable emphasis has been placed upon creating a vocabulary of forms and materials that will fit in comfortably with surrounding structures. As Figure 3, page 20 illustrates, advantage has been taken of the site's corner lot configuration by - locating the project's single building against the property's northwest and southwest setbacks. The result- ing "L" shaped building footprint permits the maximum ~. retention of open space which is visible from both Ute Avenue and Aspen Mountain Road, and concentrates the bulk - of the building to the rear of the site where it is significantly less obtrusive. To reduce apparent height - and enhance compatibility with the scale of the - ing neighborhood, the first level of the three surround- 1',(..1 J\.yv ( 3) story ^ ''''''f ) IDWI';'J f;.;\\ 9'rade.

The roofscape has been given further visual interest by alternating flat and pitched roof forms which are complimentary to the area's surrounding buildings. The buildingts balcony and entry elements utilize tradi- tional forms and project from the main facade in order to further reduce perceived bulk and to enhance the project's d residential scale. The project's architecture is depicted in Figures 4 through 12. Shingle siding will be used on the building's --- lower two floors with a projecting horizontal band of wood trim at the base of the third floor to articulate the change of material to stucco and shingles abo~e, thus low visual scale.~ Window contributing to the project's treatment at the building's larger glass areas has been divided into smaller scale components which creates a - pattern and scale in keeping with the area's residential character.

The project is located in an area of Aspen that is rapidly evolving into a high quality residential neighborhood. By removing the embarrassing eyesore of a rundown building which is currently located on the property and its attendant automobile graveyard, and enhancing all of the inherent advantages of this location, the 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes will provide an important link in the architectural upgrading of the community. Requested Score: 3 Points 2. Site Design. The basic design concept for the project site has been dictated by the limitations which are inherent in the development of a uniquely shaped parcel such as the Shodeen property. Although the VJ(e)~,,"t property contains a total of 22,660 square feet, ap- proximately 7;280 square feet (i.e. Lot 41), or 32 percent of the project site, is essentially undevelopable. This limitation in conjunction with the area and bulk require- ments of the L-1, Lodge zone district and the need to maximize usable open space, results in a building envelope which provides little flexibility for innovation site design. The problem is further exacerbated by the need to 31 - achieve as close to the allowable floor area ratio as \."y,t~.t ,I possible in order to offset land and development costs. v~,)J,,,-<,,I\\),I. These limitations notwithstanding, we believe that the 771 "".rh.v' ",t ~h 'lo'f,ll.t. Ute Avenue Townhomes project not only meets but exceeds the criteria of this scoring category. ....I As discussed under the preceding heading, the building's "L" shaped footprint has been located to the 'J,,,..,,\l!j'rf''r' J~q}il\.. rear of the property and away from the Original Street/Ute .~ Avenue intersection. This design concept retains the "".~ maximum amount of visible site area for landscaping purposes, thereby enhancing the residential character of ~ the surrounding area and providing a ? perceived extension of the adjacent Glory Hole Park. An extensive internal sidewalk system will provide convenient access to the project's individual units and to the elevator and stairs which lead to the subgrade parking garage.

Although no trash area is specifically required in the L-I zone district, the project has been designed to include an approximately two hundred and fifty (250) >...t square foot enclosed trash/utility area on the building's ground floor. As Figure 3, page 20 illustrates, the area can be conveniently accessed by collection/service vehicles via the Aspen Alps driveway (see letter from/jvi!

Requested Score: 3 Points 3. Energy conservation. The 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes will be designed to maximize benefits in energy - conservation and operating costs while minimizing initial - - - expenditures and system complexity. Energy conservation efforts will be directed toward the selection and design of systems which have proven performance over extended ill! periods of time. All energy conserving devices will be simple to understand, operate, adjust and maintain so that - efficiencies achieved can be reasonably maintained over the effective life of the building systems. The following - specific conservation features will be incorporated in the ... detailed design of the project. - a) Insulation. The greatest opportunity for energy conservation occurs in the types of materials specified in the construction of the building envelope. An infiltration barrier wrap such as "Tyvek" will be installed around the entire building exterior which will significantly reduce infiltration. All penetrations of the wrap will be carefully caulked and sealed to further enhance the effectiveness of the barrier. High quality windows and doors with state-of-the-art closures and gasketing methods will be specified throughout, and bat and rigid insulation specifications will exceed minimum standards. Insulation values for the project's walls and - roof will be R-19 and R-38 or better. I i\--t, n"J --..-.--~..,- \ ~,./'-i .' In addition to the exterior barrier wrap and internal bat/rigid insulation, an interior I ' .o~, vapor ,"( (,' - barrier will be provided. This vinyl vapor barrier will - .-.~- - not only further decrease infiltration but will tend to 36 - hold interior humidity levels at least ten (10) to fifteen (15) percent higher than exterior levels resulting in a greater degree of occupant comfort at lower room tempera- tures. All penetrations of the vinyl vapor barrier at wall switches, outlets, etc will be sealed. With the individual units envelopes sealed and insulated, an air- to-air heat exchanger will be used to control the indoor air environment while significantly reducing energy losses. . .' L. will be provided utilizing high efficiency, state-of -the- :IiU'\"~ --- ----. -------------------- art mechanical systems. consideration will be given to b) Mechanical Systems. Comfort heating integrated systems which provide optimum efficiency in the "...j production of both comfort level heating and domestic 'i_ water heating. The use of individual temperature controls for major occupancy areas will be maximized to the greatest extent possible so that building energy inputs can be matched to the occupants daily use patterns. Although initial installation cost for high efficiency systems may be slightly higher than conventional systems, the long range effectiveness and efficiency in operation will be the governing selection criteria. Primary heating - systems will also be selected and designed to incremental- ly match the seasonal and daily demands of each unit. _. c) plumbing. All plumbing fixtures and - - fittings will be of a low flow, low water consumption -, 37 - type. Faucet aerators and shower heads will be selected to provide the maximum apparent flow at relatively low actual flows. All plumbing will be fully insulated to prevent excessive water usage at the point of use while waiting for adequate temperatures to be achieved. Domestic water heater design will incorporate the latest technology and may be integrated with heat recovery from the heating system. Should the final selection be a stand-alone water heater, it will incorporate all of the current pilot, flue, and flame efficiency designs as well as high efficiency storage tank insulation. d) Glazing. All of the glazing in this II': t' . !;~o\h\"iiJ1'l'.l.

The use of low "E" glass .. will permit a significant improvement in the occupant's sense of comfort because of its effectiveness in reradiat- ,-,. lit. ing interior warmth. The selection of interior finishes l;llhr MOOt;,j'( j""\"~ ~" so\"" .qi'~\_G\tl ili. and colors, particularly in those rooms with east, south ,- and west facing glazing, will carefully consider the ,,. advantages of radiant absorption and mass heating. While .- the specific design intent is not to create a perfect passive environment, the design team will utilize proven - techniques in enhancing the natural solar heating capabil- ities within the finished interiors. - - 38 .. e) Lighting. Both interior and exterior lighting will be specified utilizing the latest in energy efficient bulbs. Whether incandescent or fluorescent, high lumen output/low wattage input bulbs will be specif- ied. In addition to using high efficiency bulbs, multiple switching within each space will be designed to closely approximate task lighting based on probable furniture layouts while maintaining sufficient flexibility to focus on task lighting arrangements as the house is occupied. After these efficiencies have been maximized, daylighting will be considered for additional efficiencies. Careful selection and location of glazing materials will permit minimum energy inputs during daylight hours while avoiding the use of shading devices to minimize glare. Any skylights to be utilized will employ high "R" value ,- glazing and will be strategically located to permit maximum natural light penetration into the unit interiors with minimum total glazing area. ... - Requested Score: 3 Points ... 4. Trails. As discussed in Section III.B.2., - .. the project site has been designed to provide convenient pedestrian circulation. The entrance to each dwelling - unit is readily accessible from both Ute Avenue and the parking garage via the project's internal sidewalk system. ,- For increased convenience, the sidewalk system has been - designed to require a minimum number of steps, and will be .~ .. 39 _. S\.,.\\~"t (O""~,,,^.l.u c.'~~\\Ito'~+ . both lighted and snowmelted to further enhance pedestrian safety. ",.;I In order to improve pedestrian circulation and safety in the immediate site area, the Applicant has redesigned the portion of Ute Avenue which abuts the property to accommodate a new sidewalk along its northern edge. This sidewalk, which will link Glory Hole Park and the project site to the existing pedestrian trail through the Aspen Alps Condominium complex, will be paid for and installed by the Applicant. Should the City's Engineering Department object to the new sidewalk, the Applicant proposes to contribute a sum of money, equivalent to the cost of the proposed sidewalk, which could be used either for much needed repairs to the existing Ute Avenue trail or applied towards acquisition of the missing trail right- of-way in the vicinity of the Clarendon Condominiums. -----J ;.",," - Inasmuch as the Municipal Code appears to require only that the Applicant commit to join a sidewalk improvement district in the event one is formed, the installation of the proposed sidewalk at this time repre- sents a substantial public benefit. In view of this benefit, and the quality of the project's internal pedestrian circulation system, we believe that the Applicant should be awarded the maximum score available in this category. ~ - - - Requested Score: 40 3 Points - ., ,- - - S {tb ;;0"( . <" J - ij,.!;,.d:~i""- 5. As Table 1, page 8 depicts, Green Space. approximately 6,620 square feet, or twenty-nine (29) percent of the project site, may "technically" be con- sidered as open space. An additional 9,770 square feet, however, while not countable for open space purposes, will also remain undeveloped. In all, approximately 16,390 square feet of site area, or seventy-two (72) percent of the entire Shodeen property will be landscaped for the benefit of both residents and the general public. It should be noted that none of the 6,620 square feet of countable open space is located on Lot 41, and that the project's open space constitutes approximately forty-three (43) percent of the actual building site (i.e., Lots l5B, l6 and 17). Given the urban character of the site, and its inherent development limitations, the preservation of such a substantial amount of green space is a noteworthy ac- complishment. While the project's extensive landscaping is provided primarily for the benefit of the project's residents, it will also help to reduce the public's perception of the project's bulk as well as offer con- siderable relief from the visual impact of surrounding development. This perception of open space will be further enhanced as a result of the project's substantial setback from Ute Avenue. / f.;, tL 'lJ"i lv1iZ ._ fV/.~ ('",1 -- . . r, . _/' ~,(: fT-:,..f;J <i(!f~,1) ';>,'(,,/.

Public Transportation. As Figure 2, page 10 illustrates, all municipal bus routes currently utilize Durant Avenue which is located within two (2) blocks walking distance of the Shodeen property. The project, therefore, is entitled to the maximum number of points available in this scoring category. Requested Score: 3 Points 2. Community Commercial Facilities. As Figure - 2 also illustrates, the Shodeen property is located within two (2) blocks walking distance of the City's commercial core. The project, therefore, is also entitled to the maximum number of points available in this scoring category. Requested Score: 3 Points D. Provision of Employee Housing u As discussed in Section II.J., the Applicant '- proposes to pay an employee housing dedication fee which is the equivalent of hoJsing twelve and one-half (12-1/2) ~ low income employees, or forty (40) percent of the total number of persons to be housed by the project as a whole. Based on the Applicant's proposal, and the provisions of 42 Section 24-ll.4(b)(4) of the Municipal Code, the project is entitled to eight (8) points, calculated as follows. 40 Percent Total Proiect Housed 5 Percent Housing Factor x 1 Point = 8 Points Requested Score: 8 Points E. Bonus Points The Applicant believes that the proposed project .., has exceeded the minimum review criteria of the City's residential growth management regulations in numerous categories and, as a result, has achieved an outstanding overall design meriting the award of additional bonus points. Specific areas in which we believe the project excels include building and site design, energy conserva- tion, water, fire protection, storm drainage, parking and roads. Detailed discussions of the project's merits in each of these areas are provided under the appropriate headings in Section III of this application. IV. ADDITIONAL REVIEW REQUIREMENTS In addition to a residential growth management allocation, both rezoning and subdivision approval will be required in order to develop the proposed project. Each of these additional approvals is discussed below. 43 A. Rezoning ,~"oI Inasmuch as multi-family dwelling units are a prohibited use in the L-l zr~e district, the Applicant requests that the property be rezoned to an appropriate category which will permit development of the project. While L-2, Lodge would appear to be such a category given surrounding land uses, it should be noted that both the Planning Office staff and the Planning and Zoning Commis- sion have recommended, and the City Council has concep- tually agreed, t~ merge the L-l/L-2 zone districts into a new category referred to as L/TR, Lodge/Tourist Residen- tial. The stated purpose of this new district is "to encourage construction and renovation of lodges in the area at the base of Aspen Mountain and to allow construc- tion of tourist-oriented detached, duplex and multi-family residential dwellings." - - Were the new L/TR zone district to be in place as of the deadline for the submission of this application, no request for rezoning would be required. Unfortunately, implementation of the new district is scheduled to occur after the first of the year and concurrent with the adoption of the City's revised land use code. As a result, application for rezoning to L-2, Lodge is hereby made pursuant to Section 24-12.5 of the Municipal Code. Inasmuch as the L/TR district will most likely be in place - - - 44 prior to completion of the project's subdivision review, thereby rendering moot the requested rezoning, a detailed discussion of the proposed rezoning's compliance with the review criteria of Section 24-l2.5(a) of the Code has not been included in this application. Should the Planning Office determine that a rezoning rationale be demonstrat- ed, the Applicant will provide such additional information as may be required. B. Subdivision Pursuant to Section 20-3(s) of the Municipal Code, a tract of land to be used for multiple dwelling units is by definition a "subdivision" and, therefore, subject to the City's review and approval. Inasmuch as the proposed project does not involve the creation of separate lots, but rather the development of a single, multi-family structure, no significant benefit would appear to be derived by either the Applicant or the City from full subdivision review. Ample opportunity will be available for the Planning and Zoning commission and the City Council to consider the proposed "subdivision" concurrent with their review of the Applicant's growth management submission. As a result, the Applicant respectfully requests that the 771 Ute Avenue Townhomes be excepted, pursuant to Section 20-l9(a) of the Code, from the strict application of the 45 City's subdivision procedures. The specific submission requirements of conceptual subdivision review are ad- dressed in Section II of this application. .- - - - - 46 - - - - APPENDIX A - .. ., . 1111 IN Ill. llli Illl 'n llll 1111 INl j11,} lllII > ~, 11 , ~ ~; \-~! ~ b-~ ~ t~ ~ ~ ~ li ~ ~ ~! j !' i ~ g~i j i= "-" ~ ~ ~ ~{ ~ ~ ~~~" i= ;'5' 2 ~ i;j1 .1, ... ..Q.z zi:c ~!29 en~O: co~ ...I-~ Oaj,.j ...-if !::~u w !2f3!: > ~lJlIE <( .....:% .....1- ~I-~ W 09::; ~t""Q% _ zzt- _ OClLl. t=oo _ cOli; ,.... c:1.IJ ORIGIN"'I..

In fact, the interconnect will provide an ultimate feed to the southeast area of Aspen, providing additional pressure to the Aspen Alps area from storage located on Aspen Mountain. It was for this reason that we had recommended that the previous applicant, the Lodge of Aspen, install such an interconnect. With such an interconnect in place, water will be available in sufficient quantities to service your proposed development. Should your project be approved, I will recommend that the city participate in upsizing the proposed interconnect from an eight inch to a twelve inch. We will also attempt to continue the referenced interconnect easterly to intercept the twelve inch main on Ute Avenue.
