Approval of Minutes Roger Hunt moved to approve the minutes of 11-18-80. Perry Harvey seconded. The minutes were approved as written. Connnissioner's Comments Welton Anderson commented for Lee (who was absent) that all lodge condominiumizations be thoroughly investigated by the Fire Marshall for health and safety. A1 least this should provide adequate warning and sprinkler systems. Al asked if this could be amended to include any condomin- iumizations. Welton said yes, he would amend to include any condominiumizations a tall. Olof suggested, as a means of incorporating this, including it on the Planning office memo as a referral comment. Karen Smith said it could be done administratively, but P&Z should contact the building inspector also. Olof asked if this should take the form of a Karen answered she would contact the Building if there was no problem, would then amend the as a referral comment. Resolution? Department and form to include this .OLD BUSINESS Little Annie Conditional Use, P.U.D. Joe Wells, Planning office, stated Little Annie has been con- sidering a series of amendments in response to comments made. There is one major procedural consideration; at some point a decision will have to be made on the employee housing density, ie. whether to process a rezoning or tQ lower density. Al Blomquist said he has a basic concern with the base. He stated he feels everything about it would be worse than has been represented. He further stated he has no problems with the top. It seems to be an inappropriate neighborhood for the base facility. He also said he doesn't believe the transpor- tation statements. The main objective is that this would be a CII use in a residential zone. Ron Garfield stated there are ceratin things they cannot be responsive to - one of these is the relocation of the base terminal. That would be financially impossible, also the land does not exist in any other place. Dave Farney added that in 1978 there was a vote for approval of conceptualization and all precincts in town voted for it being behind the Gant on Ute Avenue. If there was another proposed location it should've been suggested at this time. It is currently after the fact for questions like these. Perry stated his problem is access; tourist impact plus employee housing impact and resultant lack of parking capability would be great. Ron Garfield said they are working on the base area traffic problem, the height of the base building, impact on Ute ~~e~ary size of the terminal building and zoning for employee housing. Olof asked the Commission for comments. Joan Klar said her concerns were similar to those previously stated by Perry. Roger said tonite the Commission should attend to the housing aspect. In his opinion the plan was generally good with the exception of the transportation plan. Until the applicant revises their transportation plan Roger said he will hold his comments. Al said transportaion is also the root of his concern. Jasmine expressed the fact that while it sounds good to think people will walk a short distance to the base area, in her experience she has seen people unwilling to walk the few blocks from the Gant to Little Nell. Also, with regard to employee's who will be living in the proposed base area, they will need transportation provisions to and from service areas. Al asked the applicant if they would be willing to leave empty, the space necessary, for the employee housing parking quota for a trial period of 5 years? Ron Garfield answered yes, but they will need assurance from the City that it is a lawful thing to do. Roger suggested a mix type of housing, ie. dormitory housing incorporated into the plan. Olof took a poll of the Commission members to see how many thought this a good idea. Joan - yes, should have it. Welton - good Roger - yes, obviously Perry - would be for it. Al - 100% for it Olof - yes Jasmine - okay. Bill Kane made some brief comments concerning the proposed transportation plan. Roger then suggested the Commission discuss the Little Annie proposal during Special meetings on alternate Tuesdays of P&Z Regular meetings. The next Little Annie meeting will be January 13, 1981. Aspen Metro Sanitation District - RESOLUTION #80-15 Karen Smith, Planning office, amended the original resolution to include the amended plat, and the following changes in the language: (page 2 of Resloution # 80-15) ".. .Now therefore be it resolved by the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission that it does hereby recommend the rezoning from Park to Public and PubliclResidential Bonus Overlay in the configuration shown on the attached amended plat, amended to reduce the intrusion of the road into the greenway and subject to satisfactory resolution of the following conditions.." Roger Hunt moved to adopt with corrections Resolution #80-15. Welton seconded. All in favor. The motion was carried, the Resolution is approved. NEW BUSINESS Amendments to the 70/30 Proj ect Exemption from GMP - Small Proj ect Spec. Sunny Vann, Planning office, spoke on behalf of Jim Reents, Housing Director. He stated the 70/30 has presented some problems for small projects. For example a six unit project would have to deed restrict 70% which would be 4.2 of the units - rounded up would require 5 of the 6 units be deed restricted. Sunny and Jim recommendedh the following alternative: In projects where 70 percent represents portions of a unit, from .0 to .49 are rounded down and .50 to .99 are rounded up. This will still provide a provision for utilizing the 70/30 criteria, but also allows more flexibility for the small projects. Sunny stated if the Commission concurred with this proposed amend- ment at this time, the appropriate motion would be to accept the proposed amendment and to sponsor the amendment to City Council and to set it for a public hearing. Olof entertained a motion to sponsor the proposed amendment and to set public hearing on Section 24-10.2 (i). Perry so moved. Al seconded. No discussion. The motion was carried.
