Health Housing Other: FILE STATUS AND LOCATION: MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Leslie Lamont, Planning RE: Old Library Amended Special Review for On-Site Parking and Cash- in-Lieu for Parking Mitigation DATE: October 20, 1992 SUMMARY: Design Workshop Inc. (DWI) seeks to establish on-site parking and approval of cash-in-lieu for parking mitigation for the Old Library building in the Office zone district. Parking is established by Special Review from the Commission in the Office zone district. The Commission reviewed a parking plan for Design Workshop at the August 4, 1992 meeting. The Commission approved a parking plan for 5 on-site parking spaces and cash-in-lieu for 10 parking spaces (please see attached parking plan, Attachment A). Design Workshop has successfully entered into a contract to purchase a portion of the adjacent US West parking lot. Therefore, the applicant seeks to amend their parking plan to provide more on- site parking. APPLICANT: Design Workshop Inc. as represented by Bill Kane LOCATION: 120 East Main Street, Aspen ZONING: Office APPLICANT'S REQUEST: To amend the parking plan that was approved by the Commission in August of 1992 (please see attached amended parking plan, Attachment B). REFERRAL COMMENTS: Please see Attachment C. STAFF COMMENTS: The Old Library parcel was rezoned from Public to Office in April of 1990. As a result of the rezoning the parcel became non-conforming with respect to parking. Unless the parcel were to be redeveloped, required parking cannot be accommodated on- site and the Zoning Code did not allow a reduction of on-site parking beyond 1.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of office space without alternative mitigation. Consequently, staff was directed by Council to amend the Office zone district to enable alternative parking mitigation when parking cannot be provided on site. Recent text amendments enable reduction of parking in the Office zone district with mitigation by Special Review through the Commission. DWI has now entered into a contract with US West to purchase a portion of the US West parking lot which is located behind the Old Library parcel. DWI proposes to provide on-site parking, for their building, on the newly acquired US West land. DWI will seek a lot line adjustment from City Council, at the October 26, 1992 meeting, in order to document the acquired property. The net leasable space has been determined to be 5,042 square feet which yields a total parking requirement of 15 spaces. The applicant now proposes to provide 14 on-site parking spaces and make a payment in lieu for the remaining 1 space. However, the applicant must work with staff to ensure that there is enough clearance for spaces 1-9. Pursuant to Section 7-404, whenever the off-street parking requirements of a proposed development are subject to establishment and/or mitigation via a payment in lieu by special review the development application shall only be approved if the following conditions are met: 1. In all zone districts where the off-street parking requirements are subject to establishment and/or mitigation by special review, the applicant shall demonstrate that the parking needs of the residents, customers, guests and employees of the project have been met, taking into account potential uses of the parcel, the projected traffic generation of the project, the projected impacts onto the on-street parking of the neighborhood, its proximity to mass transit routes and the downtown area, and any special services, such as vans, provided for residents, guests and employees. In determining whether to accept the mitigation or whether to require that the parking be provided on-site, the commission shall take into consideration the practical ability of the applicant to place parking on-site, whether the parking needs of the development have been adequately met on-site and whether the city has plans for a parking facility which would better meet the needs of the development and the community than would location of the parking on-site. RESPONSE: DWI intends to purchase the building for their office use. They will not demolish the building but will establish the business in the existing parameters of the structure. Based upon their operational needs the company has calculated that 4,052 square feet of net leasable is necessary for their daily operations and approximately 3,146 square feet is attributed to circulation, bathrooms and storage area. DWI also proposes to lease 1,000 square feet. Thus the total net leasable equals 5,052 square feet. 2 This new parking plan provides more parking on-site. Staff has long encouraged DWI to pursue the purchase of the US West parking lot. The Planning Director, interpreting the Special Review section of the Code, has determined that the Commission does have the ability to review and approve a site specific parking plan. Again, staff supports the proposed parking plan for the following reasons: * The building is under one ownership and one principal use. Cars can be easily controlled and moved if necessary. * The alley behind the old library has been vacated and is now a private access easement off of Garmisch Street. Only one car at a time can pull onto Garmisch Street. * A RFTA bus stop and easement that services most primary bus routes is directly in front of the building. * Stacking is already a concept used for residential uses. * If more parking is accommodated on-site less cars will park in the surrounding neighborhood. A payment-in-lieu does not keep cars out of the neighborhoods. * If the parcel were redeveloped, the non-conforming nature of the structure would be required to be rectified. 2. In all zone districts, where the off-street parking requirement may be provided via a payment in lieu, the applicant shall make a one-time only payment to the City, in the amount of $15,000 per space. Approval of the payment- in-lieu shall be at the option of the commission. RESPONSE: To meet the full parking requirement in the Office zone district the building would have to be demolished. To comply with the parking requirement for the remaining parking spaces that will not fit on-site DWI will need to make a payment-in-lieu for a total to be determined by the Planning and Engineering Department. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the amendment to the approved parking plan for 120 East Main Street and a payment-in- lieu for the parking spaces that cannot be accommodated on-site at $15,000 a space with the following conditions: 1. Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy the applicant shall make a one time payment for one parking space that cannot be accommodated on-site. 3 2. Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the applicant shall implement the approved parking plan. 3. The applicant shall obtain a tree removal permit for any trees six inches in caliper or greater that are proposed to be removed. 4. A sign shall be posted at the entrance of the driveway off of Garmisch Street stating that this is a driveway and do not block. 5. The cars shall only be stacked two deep. 6. Surrounding property owners shall be consulted prior to signing the parking spaces. 7. This Special Review is subject to subdivision approval by City Council. RECOMMENDED MOTION: " I move to approve the amendment to the on- site parking plan for 120 East Main and the payment-in-lieu for one parking space that cannot be accommodated on-site, as required in the Office zone district, at $15,000 with conditions 1-7 as amended."

Based on the City of Aspen's parking standards and referencing the Institute of Transportation Engineers Transportation and Traffic Engineering Handbook, the current parking configuration does not work. The new spaces along the north property line need to have a minimum of 24 feet of clear space between the end of the stall and the wall, this is to facilitate turning movements. The parking plan submitted only has 15 feet. 2. In examining angle parking, both 45 degree and 60 degree, I find that there will be 4 less spaces and 2 less spaces respectively. Only the 45 degree parking meets the minimum clearance standard. It is staffs position that angle parking would be a more practical design for this site. 3. Although stacking was permitted in the previous review, spaces 13 and 14 appear to be in conflict with the access to the other parking spaces. Recommended Conditions 1. The applicant shall resubmit a drawing depicting the new property lines with planned site improvements and a revised parking configuration. 5 City Council Ext-__t ~ Approved _~ , 19 - Bv Ordinance Subdivision - US West and DWI have entered into a 2 parcel subdivision in order to adjust their property boundaries and convey 2,520 square feet of land to DWI. 1. Pursuant to Section 7-1004 C.1., the General Requirements for subdivision are as follows: (a) The proposed development shall be consistent with the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan. RESPONSE: The intent of the subdivision proposal is to enable Design Workshop Inc. to provide more on-site parking. The Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan does not specifically address this property or the recent zone changes to the Design Workshop property. (b) The proposed subdivision shall be consistent with the character of existing land uses in the area. RESPONSE: Existing land uses in the area include office and lodge along Main Street and residential on Bleeker Street. The focus of months of work with Design Workshop has been parking mitigation. The provision of more on-site parking to accommodate office use in the Old Library building dissuades occupants of the building from parking in adjacent neighborhoods. This subdivision helps to maintain the existing character of the neighborhood. In addition, many uses along Main Street provide customer/employee parking at the rear of their buildings. The existing character of the US West parcel or surrounding properties will not change. Because the small piece that is being conveyed to DWI is at the rear of the property, the appearance from the street of the US West lot from the street should not change significantly. (C) The proposed subdivision shall not adversely affect the future development of surrounding areas. RESPONSE: Other than redevelopment of the US West property, the only parcel left with substantial development potential on this block are Lots A&B totaling 6,000 square feet. Currently there is a nonconforming fourplex on the property. Future development of this property is not affected by this subdivision. (d) The proposed subdivision shall be in compliance with all applicable requirements of this chapter. RESPONSE: The subdivision is intended for on-site parking only. If Design Workshop proposed to expand the building, the acquired parcel would be considered additional lot area for floor area purposes if rezoned to Office. However, any additional development would require a growth management review process including mitigation for open space, parking and employee housing. The US West parcel is zoned R-6 and the required minimum lot area in the R-6 zone district is 6,000 square feet. After the subdivision, US West will retain 16,500 square feet of land which complies with underlying zoning. This is enough lot area in the R-6 zone district to allow future development of either a single family or duplex residence. The switching station is a nonconforming use in the R-6 zone district and cannot expand. If the property were redeveloped a single family or duplex residence is the only permitted use in this zone district. If US West seeks to develop their property for more than two dwelling units, all applicable chapters of the Municipal Code, including subdivision, rezoning and GMP would apply. 2. Pursuant to Section 7-1004 C. 2 - 5, the pertinent subdivision requirements are as follows: (a) Land Suitability - The proposed subdivision shall not be located on land unsuitable for development because of flooding, drainage, rock or soil creep, mudflow, rock slide, avalanche or snowslide, steep topography or any other natural hazard or other condition that will be harmful to the health, safety, or welfare of the residents in the proposed subdivision. RESPONSE: There are no natural hazards that exist on the site that would endanger the welfare of future residents. However, Design Workshop shall work with the Engineering Department to ensure that historic drainage patterns are retained in the new parking lot. (b) Spatial Pattern - The proposed subdivision shall not be designed to create spatial patterns that cause inefficiencies, duplication or premature extension of public facilities and unnecessary public costs. RESPONSE: There are no unnecessary public costs associated with this proposal. 3 & 4. Improvements and Design Standards - following is a review of the relevant subdivision standards: (a) ELECTRIC, TELEPHONE, NATURAL GAS AND CABLE TV - The electric transformer shall remain in the current location but two out of the three telephone pedestals will be relocated. (b) DRAINAGE - A drainage plan, complete with calculations must be provided by an engineer registered in the State of Colorado and submitted to the Engineering Department to ensure that historic drainage patterns are retained in the new parking lot. (c) ROADS - Design Workshop shall adhere to the conditions of approval for the amended parking plan that was presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission for Special Review. (d) FINAL PLAT - The Subdivision plat needs to include: * A plat must be submitted which meets the requirements of Section 24-7-1004.D of the Municipal Code. The applicants are required to submit two reproducible mylars for approval by the engineering department and record one plat with the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder. It is recommended that a blueline be submitted for review prior to the final submission. * The vicinity map needs to be at a scale of 1"=400'. * A statement to the effect that all easements indicated in title policy number , dated are shown on this plat. * A statement that the applicants agree to join any improvement district formed for the purposes of constructing improvements in the public right-of-way. * The surveyor's certificate needs to include language that the survey was performed in accordance with Colorado Revised Statutes 1973, Title 38, Article 51, as amended from time to time. Also it must include that there is closure of 1:10,000. * The plat is incomplete with respect to existing improvements i.e. the rest of the building, sidewalk, curb and gutter, trash areas. * The plat needs to show the entire Design Workshop parcel and all improvements and the US West parcel and all improvements. * The final subdivision plat and agreement must be filed within 180 days of final approval. City Council Exhi ~~ Approved , 19 By Ordinance Rezoning - Design Workshop Inc. proposes to rezone the newly acquired parcel from R-6 to Office. Pursuant to Section 7-1102 the standards of review for an amendment to the Official Zone District Map are as follows: a. Whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with any applicable portions of this chapter. RESPONSE: The proposed amendment is consistent with the recent rezoning of the Old Library from Public to Office, enabling DWI to comply with the parking requirements of the Office zone district. Although, if the parcel were not rezoned to Office parking would still be a permitted use in the R-6 zone district to enable compliance with the parking requirements of the lot. b. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan. RESPONSE: The Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan does not specifically address this particular site. C. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with surrounding Zone Districts and land uses, considering existing land use and neighborhood characteristics. RESPONSE: This project site is bordered by R-6 zoning on Bleeker Street and Office zoning on Main Street. The Sardy Hous is also zoned Office. Rezoning the conveyed piece of land is consistent with the zoning along Main Street. The subdivision enables the conveyance of a 2,520 square feet to DWI without creating a nonconforming lot of record. d. The effect of the proposed amendment on traffic generation and road safety. RESPONSE: It can be argued that rezoning the Old Library parcel two years ago may have impacted traffic and parking problems related to this parcel. However, rezoning the new parcel should not exacerbate traffic and road safety issues. In fact, the subdivision and rezoning enables occupants of the Design Workshop building to park on-site rather than in adjacent neighborhoods. The parking plan incorporating the new parcel was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission at their October 20, 1992 meeting. e. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, and emergency medical facilities. RESPONSE: This rezoning will have no affect on public facilities. f. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significantly adverse impacts on the natural environment. RESPONSE: It is necessary to relocate or replace a very large spruce tree pursuant to a tree relocation permit. g. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent and compatible with the community character in the City of Aspen. RESPONSE: The proposal to provide on-site parking combined with payment-in-lieu helps keep employee parking out of adjacent neighborhoods and helps fund the parking program. h. Whether there have been changed conditions affecting the subject parcel or the surrounding neighborhood which support the proposed amendment. RESPONSE: In 1961 the alley on this block was vacated. Nine hundred square feet of the land being conveyed to Design Workshop Inc. is the vacated alley. In 1990, the Design Workshop parcel was rezoned from Public to Office. The Office zone district requires more stringent parking requirements than Public. These two events support the rezoning from R-6 to Office to facilitate Design Workshop's parking plan. i. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this chapter. RESPONSE: The amendment is consistent with established public policy. MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Leslie Lamont, Planning RE: Old Library Special Review for On-Site Parking and Cash- in-Lieu for Parking Mitigation DATE: August 4, 1992 SUMMARY: Design Workshop Inc. (DWI) seeks to establish on-site parking and approval of cash-in-lieu for parking mitigation for the Old Library building in the Office zone district. Parking is established by Special Review from the Commission in the Office zone district. Staff recommends approval of the cash-in-lieu for 10 spaces and five on-site parking spaces.

Based upon their operational needs the company has calculated that 4,052 square feet of net leasable is necessary for their daily operations and approximately 3,146 square feet is attributed to circulation, bathrooms and storage area. DWI also proposes to lease 1,000 square feet to the Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority. Thus the total net leasable equals 5,052 square feet. -. 4- 1*Ivel,R By virtue of a(_re**ye-access easement across the northern 15 feet of the property-to the west and connecting to Garmish Street, DWI proposes to delineate five parking spaces on-site utilizing two spaces for stacked parking. thn_Elanning_Di=aotor, interpreting the Special Review section of the Code, has determined.that the Commission does have the ability Moreview and approve a-Mite specific parking plan.. Although Section 24-5-302 A., requires that "each parking space, except those provided for detached residential dwellings and duplex dwellings, shall have a public unobstructed area for access to a street or alley" the Director' s interpretation provides the iommission the flexibility through the Special Review language to review and recommend on thisparking plan for the parcel. 2 '2 Staff supports the proposed parking plan for the following reasons: * The building is under one ownership and one principal use. Cars can be easily controlled and moved if necessary. t®rti Off * The alley behind the old library has been vacated and is now a private access easement off of Garmisch Street. Only one car at a time can pull onto Garmisch Street. * A RFTA bus stop and easement that services most primary bus routes is directly in front of the building. * Stacking is already a concept used for residential uses. * If more parking is accommodated on-site less cars will park in the surrounding neighborhood. A payment-in-lieu does not keep cars out of the neighborhoods. * If the building were condominiumized, a stacked parking arrangement would not be appropriate because of multiple owners equal less control of parking. * If the parcel were redeveloped, the non-conforming nature of the structure would be required to be rectified. In addition DWI is pursuing a long-term lease with US West which owns the switching station and adjacent parking behind the old library parcel. The switching station has become virtually self- operating with the need for a warm body only once a week. In the event that DWI secured a long-term lease for the parking lot then a significant amount of parking could be located adjacent to the old library parcel and some additional parking may fit on the old library site. DWI would like the opportunity in the future to request an amendment of their parking plan and a reimbursement from the payment in lieu for the number of spaces being provided on- < site and off-site. cod£ ourpa~56 '9'f In all zone districts, where the off-street parking o llD(05 REL requirement may be provided via a payment in lieu, the applicant shall make a one-time only payment to the City, in the amount of $15,000 per space. Approval of the payment-in-lieu shall be at the option of the commission. RESPONSE: To meet the full parking requirement in the Office zone district the building would have to be demolished. To comply with the parking requirement for the remaining 10 parking spaces DWI proposes a payment in lieu for a total payment of $150,000. Because DWI may secure a long-term lease with US West for adjacent parking some payment in lieu may be reimbursed. Staff recommends that a portion of the payment in lieu be restricted within the 3 Parking Fund, for one year from the time Of approval, in anticipation of a reimbursement. Reimbursement will be dependent upon a long-term lease with US West and subject to approval by the Commission. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of five on-site parking spaces for 120 East Main Street and a payment in lieu for the remaining 10 parking spaces at $15,000 a space with the following conditions: 2 1. Er-ighc icoN.ance-of any building Permits or occupancy fAVM- q.ertificate the applicant shall make a one time payment~For P~NM, $150,000 to the Parking Fund, a portion of which shall be secured for reimbursement purposes for one year from this approval. A / U.. receipt shall be copied to the Planning and Building Departments upon payment. The amount that is secured will depend upon the parking capacity of the US West parking lot. The applicant shall work with the Planning and Engineering Departments to determine the permitted number of parking spaces. 2. Prior to the issuance of any building permits or certificate of occupancy, the applicant shall create and sign five on-site parking spaces pursuant to the attached site plan. 3. The applicant shall obtain a tree removal permit for any trees 6" in caliper or greater that are proposed to be removed. 4. If Design Workshop Inc. secures a long-term lease from US West for adjacent parking, this parking plan shall be reviewed and amended by Planning and the Commission to reflect the adjacent off- site parking and any new on-site parking spaces.

ATTACHMENTS: A. Site Plan B. Engineering Referral Comments 5 . ATTACHMENT B MEMORANDUM TO: Leslie Lamont, Planning Office From: Rob Thomson, Project Engineer Date: July 29, 1992 Re: Old Library Special Review - Revised Having reviewed the above application, and having made a site inspection, the engineering department has the following comments: 1. The application is showing the vehicle parking in a stacked configuration. Section 5-302.A of the municipal code states that spaces must have unobstructed access to a street or alley. Stacking is an obstructed access and in general not very practical. However, stacking is permitted in detached residential and duplex dwellings and could work on this site. Physically there is room to configure five parking spaces on site. There will be an increase in noise and general congestion with the new parking plan, quite possibly having a negative effect on the surrounding property owners. The vehicles should only be stacked two deep and there also should be provisions for snow storage. 2. In addition to the code, there is concern that the shuffling of vehicles will create additional congestion on the street. Also, there is an existing problem with people blocking this driveway. There should be a sign posted at the entrance of the drive off Garmisch stating that this is a driveway and do not block. 3. There are some very large shrubs that will need to be removed to accommodate the parking spaces as shown. Recommended Condition of Approval 1. Section 5-302.A of the land use regulations does not allow stacked spaces for this land use. If, by this special review, stacking is allowed the following recommendations should apply: a. The cars only be allowed to be stacked two deep. b. The surrounding property owners be consulted. c. Provisions for snow storage. d. A sign place at the driveway entrance on Garmisch. 6 Recommended Condition of Approval 1. Section 5-302.A of the land use regulations does not allow stacked spaces for this land use. If, by this special review, stacking is allowed it is staff's recommendation that the stacking only involve two cars, not three, and only receive partial credit for the stacked space. STAFF COMMENTS: The Old Library parcel was rezoned from Public to Office in April of 1990. As a result of the rezoning the parcel became non-conforming with respect to parking. Unless the parcel were to be redeveloped, required parking cannot be accommodated on- site and the Zoning Code does not allow a reduction of on-site parking beyond 1.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of office space without alternative mitigation. Consequently, staff was directed by Council to amend the Office zone district to enable alternative parking mitigation when parking cannot be provided on site. Recent text amendments enable reduction of parking in the Office zone district with mitigation by Special Review through the Commission. DWI is proposing to purchase the building from Pitkin County. The net leasable space has been determined to be 5,042 square feet which yields a total parking requirement of 15 spaces. The applicant has proposed to place five parking spaces on-site, please refer to attachment A, and make a payment in lieu for the remaining 10 spaces. Pursuant to Section 7-404, whenever the off-street parking requirements of a proposed development are subject to establishment and/or mitigation via a payment in lieu by special review the development application shall only be approved if the following conditions are met: 1. In all zone districts where the off-street parking requirements are subject to establishment and/or mitigation by special review, the applicant shall demonstrate that the parking needs of the residents, customers, guests and employees of the project have been met, taking into account potential uses of the parcel, the projected traffic generation of the project, the projected impacts onto the on-street parking of the neighborhood, its proximity to mass transit routes and the downtown area, and any special services, such as vans, provided for residents, guests and employees. In determining whether to accept the mitigation or whether to require that the parking be provided on-site, the commission shall take into consideration the practical ability of the applicant to place parking on- 2 site, whether the parking needs of the development have been adequately met on-site and whether the city has plans for a parking facility which would better meet the needs of the development and the community than would location of the parking on-site. RESPONSE: DWI intends to purchase the building for their office use. They will not demolish the building but will establish the business in the existing parameters of the structure. Based upon their operational needs the company has calculated that 4,052 square feet of net leasable is necessary for their daily operations and approximately 3,146 square feet is attributed to circulation, bathrooms and storage area. DWI also proposes to lease 1,000 square feet to the Aspen/Pitkin Housing Authority. Thus the total net leasable equals 5,052 square feet. By virtue of a public access easement across the northern 15 feet of the property to the west and connecting to Garmish Street, DWI proposes to delineate five parking spaces on-site utilizing two spaces for stacked parking. Staff cannot support the stacked parking arrangement. Section 24- 5-302 A., requires that "each parking space, except those provided for detached residential dwellings and duplex dwellings, shall have a public unobstructed area for access to a street or alley." In addition, DWI is aggressively pursuing a long-term lease with US West which owns the switching station and adjacent parking behind the old library parcel. The switching station has become virtually self-operating with the need for a warm body only once a week. In the event that DWI secured a long-term lease for the parking lot then a significant amount of parking could be located adjacent to the old library parcel and some additional parking may fit on the old library site. DWI would like the opportunity in the future to request an amendment of their parking plan and a reimbursement from the payment in lieu for the number of spaces being provided on-site and off-site. 2. In all zone districts, where the off-street parking requirement may be provided via a payment in lieu, the applicant shall make a one-time only payment to the City, in the amount of $15,000 per space. Approval of the payment-in-lieu shall be at the option of the commission. RESPONSE: To meet the full parking requirement in the Office zone district the building would have to be demolished. To comply with the parking requirement for the remaining 12 parking spaces DWI proposes a payment in lieu for a total payment of $180,000. Because DWI may secure a long-term lease with US West for adjacent parking some payment in lieu may be reimbursed. Staff recommends 3 that a portion of the payment in lieu be restricted within the Parking Fund, for one year from the time of approval, in anticipation of a reimbursement. Reimbursement will be dependent upon a long-term lease with US West and subject to approval by the Commission. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of three on-site parking spaces for 120 East Main Street and a payment in lieu for the remaining 12 parking spaces at $15,000 a space with the following conditions: 1. Prior to the issuance of any building permits or occupancy certificate the applicant shall make a one time payment for $180,000 to the Parking Fund, a portion of which shall be secured for reimbursement purposes for one year from this approval. A receipt shall be copied to the Planning and Building Departments upon payment. The amount that is secured will depend upon the parking capacity of the US West parking lot. The applicant shall work with the Planning and Engineering Departments to determine that number. 2. Prior to the issuance of any building permits or occupancy certificate the applicant shall create and sign three on-site parking spaces pursuant to the attached site plan. 3. The applicant shall obtain a tree removal permit for any trees 6" in caliper or greater that are proposed to be removed. 4. If Design Workshop Inc. secures a long-term lease from US West for adjacent parking, this parking plan shall be reviewed and amended by Planning and the Commission to reflect the adjacent off- site parking and any new on-site parking spaces. Design Workshop Inc. shall be refunded the commensurate amount of payment in lieu based upon the amended parking plan. 5. A sign shall be posted at the entrance of the drive off of Garmisch stating that this is a driveway and do not block. RECOMMENDED MOTION: I move to approve the on-site parking plan for 120 East Main and the payment in lieu of $180,000 for the remaining parking that is required in the Office zone district with conditions 1-4 as stated above. 4 MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Leslie Lamont, Planning RE: Old Library Special Review for On-Site Parking and Cash- in-Lieu for Parking Mitigation DATE: July 21, 1992 SUMMARY: Design Workshop Inc. (DWI) seeks to establish on-site parking and approval of cash-in-lieu for parking mitigation for the Old Library building in the Office zone district. Parking is established by Special Review in the Office zone district. Staff recommends approval of the cash-in-lieu for 12 spaces and three on-site parking spaces. APPLICANT: Design Workshop Inc. as represented by Bill Kane LOCATION: 120 East Main Street, Aspen ZONING: Office APPLICANT'S REQUEST: To establish on-site parking spaces and a cash-in-lieu payment for parking, please see attached site plan. REFERRAL COMMENTS: Engineering - The Engineering Department has reviewed the application and inspected the site and offers the following comments: 1. The application is showing the vehicle parking in a stacked configuration. Section 5-302.A of the municipal code states that spaces must have unobstructed access to a street or alley. Stacking is an obstructed access and in general not very practical. Stacking is permitted in detached residential and duplex dwellings, which has only involved two cars and not three. Staff would not recommend that the applicant get full credit for a stacked space. 2. In addition to the code, there is concern that the shuffling of vehicles will create additional congestion on the street. Also, there is an existing problem with people blocking this driveway. There should be a sign posted at the entrance of the drive off Garmisch stating that this is a driveway and do not block. 3. There are some very large shrubs that will need to be removed to accommodate the parking spaces as shown. MEMORANDUM To: Leslie Lamont, Planning Office From: Rob Thomson, Project Engineer &¥F- Date: July 15, 1992 Re: Old Library Special Review Having reviewed the above application, and having made a site inspection, the engineering department has the following comments: 1.

Stacking is an obstructed access and in general not very practical. Stacking is permitted in detached residential and duplex dwellings, which has only involved two cars and not three.

There are some very large shrubs that will need to be removed to accommodate the parking spaces as shown. Recommended Condition of Approval 1. Section 5-302.A of the land use regulations does not allow stacked spaces for this land use. If, by this special review, stacking is allowed it is staff's recommendation that the stacking only involve two cars, not three, and only receive partial credit for the stacked space.

C.olorado 130 South Galena Street 81611 Aspen, Colorado 81611 Telephune Dear Ms. Lamont: 303 923-8334 118(:si m ile Please accept this package as an application for Special Review 303 920-887 Approval to permit a combination of on-site parking and the substitution of cash-in-lieu to meet off-street parking associated with our pending purchase of the old library building at 110 East Main. Den\('r As you know, we have made a full price offer to Pitkin County for the 1,11'H. 11 i x building, listing approval of parking mitigation as a contingency to this offer of purchase. To summarize this application, we have calculated our net leasable space to be 5,042 sf. which at three spaces/1,000 sq.ft. yields a total requirement for 15 spaces. We believe that we can accommodate five spaces on-site leaving 10 spaces to be mitigated via payment of cash- in-lieu. We are requesting that the Planning Commission make a finding that our five on-site spaces are valid and that the balance can be met through cash-in-lieu. Attached is our check and the required attachments including legal description, vicinity map, title insurance certificate, and proposal description. Any of the five owners of Design Workshop are authorized to act on our behalf. They include: Joe Porter, Don Ensign, Kurt Culbertson, Richard Shaw, and myself. DESIGNWORKSHOP 1)41'Ign \Vork.hop. Inc. Description of Proposal The former Pitkin County Library building will be turned from public ownership to private ownership, with the sale of the building. With this zoning change, the new ownership must meet parking requirements. This proposal addresses mitigation of parking requirements associated with the old library building. 1. Net leasable space is determined to be 5,042 sq. ft. This yields a total parking requirement of 15 spaces. 2. Exhibit A illustrates the feasibility for the location of five spaces on-site. Access to these spaces is provided by virtue of a public access easement across the northern 15 feet of the property to the west and connecting to Garmish Street. 3. The essence of the request is to find that the on-site parking plan is valid and that the balance of the spaces required (10) may be met via payment by cash-in-lieu. 4. We believe that this approach is encouraged by ordinance #35 of 1992 and the following are offered as supporting considerations: a. The findings cited as a basis for the ordinance indicate a desire to consider "pre-existing nonconformities which by their allowance might serve to protect buildings from modifications or demolition." b. The parking spaces, while "stacked," do represent a practical solution in that the building will be under one ownership and one principal use. Cars can easily be controlled and represent n.2 programmatic problems. C. The Housing Authority is proposed as a tenant and their employees are provided free transit usage. d. All major bus routes have a stop at the front door of the building. 5. The old library building is an appropriate example of cash-in- lieu as intended by Ordinance 35, 1992. Provision of the full requirement of three spaces/1,000 sq. ft. is impossible to meet without demolition. The building is on all City and County transit routes and as a firm, we have a high percentage of transit riders, bike riders and walkers. De.sign Workshop. Inc. 6. The Housing office is proposed as a prime tenant and all employees have free transit privileges and a major bus stop at the front door. 7. Provision of greater than ten spaces via cash-in-lieu make the prospect of meeting a full price offer difficult in light of financing and value realities.
