RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
100 Leaves
5,875 s.f. will be "non-unit/public" space. Included
in this space shall be a lounge of about 295 s.f.,
including a fireplace and entry lobby, a 700 s.f.
dining area, a jucuzzi, ski storage room, sauna and r /
terraces for_ at least all but 3 of the rooms. Tw-a- cf�
employee units will be constructed containing a total 01
of about 488 s.f.
H. All existing tress on the site will be retained or, if

insulating glass. Active freon collectors will be used
for domestic water heating and will be located so as
not to be apparent on the exterior of the building.
F. The two employee units will each include a kitchen and
bath. One unit will house one person and the other two
persons, and both will be restricted to low income
rental and occupancy guidelines, as specified in the
Housing Authority memo of November 6, 1986.
G. Materials for the building will be wood and stucco, and
will be used to create an "alpine chalet" appearance
similar to. the existing main lodge facility and as
depicted in concept in the application.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen City Council
THRU: Robert S. Anderson, Jr., City Manager
FROM: Alan Richman, Planning and Development Director "Nff
RE: Brass Bed Inn - GMP Allocation; GMP Exemption
DATE: December 1, 1986
SUMMARY: The Planning Office recommends that you adopt Resolu-
tion + ol .,_, Series of 1986 granting a 9 unit L-3 allotment to
the Brass Bed Inn. We also recommend that you exempt the
proposed new employee unit from the competition requirement.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None.
BACKGROUND: The Brass Bed Inn is an existing 20 unit tourist
accommodations facility located at 926 E. Durant Avenue in the L-
3 zone district. The owners propose to demolish the several
structures on the site and to replace them with a new structure
of approximately 13,800 square feet, at an FAR of 1:1 (this
represents an increase of about 5,100 s.f. from the present
buildout) . Copies of the application describing the proposal in
more detail have been submitted to you separately.
The Planning and Zoning Commission scored this project under the
L-3 quota system regulations at its regular meeting on November
18, 1986. As shown in the attached tally sheet, the project met
the thresholds in the individual categories and substantially
exceeded the 60% minimum overall threshold by scoring 75.2 points
prior to bonus, which is 75% of the points available. It is,
therefore, eligible for consideration for an allotment by
Council.
PROBLEM DISCUSSION: The L-3 zone district GMP competition has
been in effect since 1983. As this is the fourth year of the
competition, and the annual quota is ten units per year, there
have been a total of forty units available, including those for
this year. Following is a summary of the awards to date:
- . ? - 1 =- • • 1.
1983 Hotel Lenado 4
The Aspen 3
1984 Hotel Aspen 13
1985 Crestahaus 14
Total 34
Therefore, since this project requests nine new units, the
applicant is requesting the six units which are available this
year and three units from the 1987 quota. This was the only L-3
project submitted in 1986 and since it met the competitive
threshold, it is automatically entitled to the six units avail-
able this year. Therefore, the only allotment issue before you
is whether or not to award the three units from the 1987 quota.
The Planning Office and Planning Commission recommend that you
allocate the additional three units for the following reasons:
1) This is a high quality project which substantially
exceeded the minimum competitive threshold. No public
purpose would be served by requiring the project to
compete again next year for the additional three units,
nor would it be sensible to force the applicant to
phase the additional units.
2) When the ten unit L-3 quota was adopted, it was
recognized that it might be necessary to award slightly
in excess of the adopted rate to allow small projects
to be built. The ten unit quota sets the tone for the
zone district of small expansions and should not be
revised; however, it should be applied flexibly to
provide an incentive for lodge upgrade.
There is one additional issue for you to address at this time.
The applicant intends to provide two employee housing units on
site. The applicant has submitted a revised program from that
contained in the application (attached) , involving a unit of
about 180 s.f. (for one person) and a unit of about 308 s.f. (for
two persons) . Each unit meets the Housing Authority standard for
a dormitory unit, of 150 s.f. per person, and each has a small
kitchen and bath. The units are proposed for restriction to the
low income rental and occupancy guidelines. The Housing Author-
ity and P&Z recommend that you accept these units as replacement
for the existing units and to mitigate the impact of the new
development. We concur and recommend that you grant the GMP
exemption to reconstruct the existing unit and build the new
unit, subject to the conditions listed in the Housing Authority
memo of November 6, 1986.
RECOMMENDED MOTIONS:
1) Move to adopt Resolution 4� Series of 1986.
2) Move to grant GMP exemption to the applicant to
reconstruct the existing employee housing unit and to
build a new employee unit, subject to the conditions
listed in the Housing Authority memo of November 6,
1986.

lisned and applied by the Housing Authority with respect to
employee housing.
2. Verification of employment of person(s) living in the
employee rental units shall be completed and filed with the
Housing Authority Office by the Owner of the unit prior to
occupancy thereof, and must be acceptable to the Housing

abatement, or eviction of non -complying tenants during the
period or the life or the last surviving member of the
presently existing Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin
County, Colorado, plus twenty-one years, or for a period of
tifty years from the date of recording hereof in the Pitkin
County real property records, whichever period shall be
less.
4. No lease agreement executed for occupancy of the employee
rental unit snail provide for a rental term of less than six
consecutive months.
5. When a lease is signed with a tenant, a copy shall be sent
to the Housing Office so that a current file may be maint-
ained on each unit.
6. Deed restriction shall be approved and signed by the
Chairman of the Housing Authority prior to recordation and a
copy of the recorded document shall be provided to the
Housing Authority Ottice after recordation.
HOUSING AUTHORITY BOARD RECOMMENDATON: The Housing Authority
Board recommends approval of the staff recommendation.
T
MEMORANDUM
TO: Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Alan Richman, Planning and Development Director
RE: Brass Bed Inn - L-3 GMP Review; Associated Reviews
DATE: November 18, 1986
INTRODUCTION: Attached for your review is the Planning Off ice' s
recommended points allocation for the one application submitted
on October 1st for the Lodge GMP competition in the L-3 zone
district. No applications were received in the L-1, L-2, CL and
other zone district this year.
QUOTA AVAILABLE: The L-3 zone district GMP competition has been
in effect since 1983. As this is the fourth year of the compe-
tition, there have been a total of thirty units made available,
not including those for this year. Following is a summary of the
awards to date:

i_4.
34 units
Therefore, since this project requests nine new units, the
applicant is requesting the 6 units which are available this year
and 3 units from the 1987 quota. The project also involves the
reconstruction of twenty existing lodge rooms and 1 employee unit
and the construction of 1 new employee unit.
PROCESS: The Planning Office will summarize this project at your
meeting of November 18, 1986; will review procedures with you;
and provide a suggested assignment of points for the scoring of
the application. The applicant will give a brief presentation of
the proposal. A public hearing will be held to allow interested
citizens to comment. At the close of the hearing each commission
member will be asked to score the applicant's proposal.
The total number of points awarded by all members, divided by the
number of members voting, will constitute the total points
awarded to the project. A project must score a minimum of 60
percent of the total points available under categories 1, 2, 3
and 4, amounting to 60 points, and a minimum of 30 percent of the
points available in each category 1, 2, 3 and 4 (b) and 35% in
4 (a) to meet the basic competitive requirements. The minimum
points are as follows: Category 1 = 3.0 points; Category 2 =
11.7 points; Category 3 = 6.3 points; and Category 4 = 9.75
points. Should the application score below these thresholds it
will no longer be considered for a development allotment and will
be considered denied. Bonus points cannot be used to bring the
application over this minimum threshold.
This project, should it receive a development allotment, requires
that the following additional reviews be conducted:
1) Special Review to allow FAR of 1:1 in L-3 zone (P&Z
action is final) ;
2) GMP Exemption for one employee unit (P&Z recommend-
ation); and
3) Veritication of the existence of twenty lodge units and
1 employee unit on the site (staff action only re-
aui red) .
Each of these items is summarized in the body of this memo.
PLANNING OFFICE RATINGS: The Planning Office has assigned points
to the application as a recommendation for you to consider. The
staff met to assess the ratings of the reviewing planner and
objectively scored the proposal. The following is a summary of
the ratings. A more complete explanation of the points assign-
ment for each criterion is shown on the attached score sheets,
including rationales for the ratings.
Public
Services Design Amenities Policies Total
5 23 16 30 74
The recommended ratings of the Planning Office substantially
exceed the minimum threshold in each category, as well as for
total points. The Planning Office finds this to be a high
quality project which is eligible for an allotment. Should you
also score the project above the thresholds, we recommend that
you recommend that Council grant the project the six units
available this year as well as three units from 1987.
FAR SPECIAL REVIEW: Section 24-3.5 states that increases in FAR
in the L-3 zone district are subject to special review, consider-
ing: "The compatibility of the development with surrounding land
uses and zoning, including size, height and bulk, proposed site
design characteristics, including landscaping and open space, and
2
visual impacts such as viewplanes"
Land uses which surround this property include mostly condomin-
iums such as the Old Hundred, Ute Condominiums and Chateau
Roaring Fork, several one, two and three family units, the Alpina
Haus and North Star Lodge. In effect, this neighborhood is a
combination of short and long term housing, and is predominantly
multi -family. Zoning in the surrounding area is RMF and does not
change to lower densities until Waters Avenue or unless one
crosses the river to the east.
The development of this site at an FAR of 1:1 does not appear to
be out of scale with surrounding uses. The Old Hundred is a very
large building, as is the Chateau Roaring Fork and some other
nearby uses. To the rear of the property sits a vacant lot in
which the Ute City Place project has been approved at 1:1. The
vacant lot across the street (925 Durant) has been the subject of
numerous past development applications for a multi -family use at
1:1 FAR or greater (using RBO) and will probably eventually see a
large development. As noted in the scoring, the project poses no
impact whatsoever to public views.
We have two concerns with respect to approval of the FAR in-
crease, these being specificity of landscaping and the site
design problem of the removal of 5-6 existing parking spaces.
As regards the landscaping, we simply need to see more detail as
to the feasibility of replanting the seven spruce trees which the
applicant commits will be replaced (5" to 8" caliper) and the
size of the trees which will replace any which do not survive the
replanting. We also would like to see more detail on the paving,
the terraces, the deck and fence around the jacuzzi and the final
look of the front yard, including the addition of some street
trees along Durant Avenue. All of these matters can be handled
by submission of a detailed landscape plan to our office before
a building permit is issued.
A much more significant problem is the loss of the existing
parking on the site. The policy of the City in reconstruction
(i.e. , the Applejack) has been to try to maintain existing
parking when it is less than Code requirements and to meet the
needs of the newly added units. This block is already rather
busy, with its mix of employee housing and tourist units, and we
do not believe it appropriate to push additional parking onto the
street. Since the applicant appears to intend to leave the front
yard level, the Engineering Department suggests that one or even
two curb cuts could be used to replace the existing continuous
curb cut and permit parking to occur in the front of the build-
ing. While we do not prefer this solution from a design point of
view, as we much prefer the rolling form of landscaping which
occurs next door at the Old Hundred with its contours, bushes,
etc. , we find no choice but to require that the spaces be
provided. We suggest that the applicant also look at squeezing
3
additional spaces along the alley as the best location to meet
this requirement. We also recommend that the applicant seek a
waiver from Council of the parking requirement for the new
employee housing unit so that one of the ten spaces in the rear
can count for the spaces lost in the front.
The Planning Office recommends that you grant the special review
for the project to obtain an FAR of 1:1, subject to:
1) The applicant will provide the Planning Office with a
detailed landscape plan prior to the issuance of a
building permit for the project. The plan shall
specify the form of the landscaping and the dimensions
of the plantings to be made. The plan shall also show
the materials for the paving, the terraces and the deck
and fence around the Jacuzzi. Finally, the plan shall
provide for trees of a similar character to replace any
of the seven spruce trees which cannot be replanted or
which does not survive the replanting.
2) The applicant will provide the Planning Office with a
revised site plan designating fourteen parking spaces
on the property. Should the Planning Office find that
the revised plan is a significant deviation from the
site plan reviewed by P&Z in the GMP process and
detracts from those features which received credit in
the scoring process, then the plan shall be presented
to P&Z for review and approval.
3) The applicant will request an exemption from the
employee parking requirement from the City Council in
conjunction with the allocation to the project.
GMP EXEMPTION: The applicant has submitted a revised employee
housing program from that contained in the original application,
involving a unit of about 180 s.f. (for one person) and a unit of
about 308 s.f. (for two persons). Each unit has a kitchen and
bath and is proposed for restriction to the low income guide-
lines. The units both fall within the dorm/lodge standard of the
Housing Authority guidelines, requiring a minimum of 150 s.f. per
employee. The Housing Authority recommends that you accept these
units as replacement for the existing unit and to mitigate the
impact of the new development. We concur that you should
recommend that Council grant the GMP exemption, subject to the
conditions listed in the Housing Authority memo of November 6,
1986.
VERIFICATION OF UNITS: Section 24-11 .2 (a) of the Code provides
that an applicant may demolish existing units in a lodge and
rebuild them without obtaining additional allotments if they
first verify with the Planning Office and Building Department
that said units exist. The floor plans provided would appear to
4
demonstrate that 20 lodge units (four with kitchens, one in an
apartment configuration) exist on the site. The applicant must,
however, prior to issuance of a demolition permit, have the
Zoning Official inspect the site and write a memo to the Planning
Office verifying that twenty legal lodge units and one legal
employee unit exists on the property.

RE: Brass Bed Inn L-3 GMP Expansion, GMP Exemption for
Employee Unit Conceptual Submission, Special Review for
FAR Increase in L-3 zone
Parcel ID# 2737-182-37-005
The Engineering Department has reviewed the above application and
has the following comments:
Utilities
This development will be adequately served by the existing City
utilities. The 8" sewer main located in the alley and the 6"
water main located in Durant Avenue will be sufficient. The
applicant has agreed to underground utility lines and to screen
utility meters but the location of these meters should be
indicated on their site plan.
Trash
The applicant has indicated that the trash area will be screened
and has shown the location of the dumpster and fence on
their site plan. The area provided for this dumpster is more
than adequate for the size needed for this development. Trash
truck access to this dumpster will be adequate as long as the
dumpster is on wheels and can be moved out into the alley for
pickup.
Storm Drainage
The applicant has indicated that all roofs will be drained
directly into drywells and proposes the retainage of all surface
runoff by these on -site dry wells. Calculations should be made
to determine the increase in impervious surface area (additional
roof surface, paved parking lot, new concrete walkways, and new
terraces) of this development and submitted to the Engineering
Department. To maintain the historic runoff in this area, only
roof area equal to the results of these calculations should be
drained directly into the drywells.

Construction Schedule
The applicant has submitted a construction schedule but a more
detailed one must be —given to the Engineering Department that
will discuss barricading, truck access, staging and storage area.
Parking
Section 24-4.5 of the Municipal Code requires one parking space
per bedroom for development in an L-3 zone. Ten off-street
parking spaces are proposed whereas all previous parking was on -
street. This provides one parking space per bedroom for each of
the new units and would adequately serve the development because
of the close proximity to the commercial core, skiing, and city
bus service.
Visual impact of this parking will be minimized because of the
location on the alley side of the building.
Traffic
This development will not substantially impact the traffic in the
adjacent streets. Durant and West End Streets will easily handle
the additional traffic generated.

RE: Brass Bed Inn L-3 GMP Expansion
Review comments on energy related aspects of the Brass Bed Inn expansion GMP
TNCTTT.A T 7/1N
Using the specified wall components and assuming relatively tight
construction, the building addition's walls will be quite adequate.
Roof insulation of R-30 exceeds the code, but it would be helpful if the
proposal defined the building components used to reach these values.
Windows are satisfactory. The overall insulating level of the new
structure sounds good.
SOLAR ENERGY
Taking advantage of passive solar gain is commendable (ie., 80% of the
units are south -facing). There are, however, two units with north facing
decks which is a definite disadvantage with the expected high winter use.
Solar energy should be considered as a possibility for active domestic
hot water heating. It appears that no consideration of active solar
energy was made. A south sloping roof makes this potential attractive.
WATER CONSERVATION
There is no mention of water conservation. The project should specify the
gallon -per -minute usage rate for all plumbing fixtures (ie., showerheads,
faucets, toilets). An adequate water conservation plan would be desirable
since demand at certain times of the day will be high during peak seasons.
MECHANICAL SYSTEMS
The type of heating system for the addition is not specified. From the
basement/garden level floor plans, it appears that a natural gas boiler
is currently used and would be moved or replaced. The type of heating
system to be used has a great impact on the future energy consumption of
the building. This should be specified in the proposal.

LODGE DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This Growth Management Plan Development Proposal is for the
remodel of, and addition to, the Brass Bed Inn located at
926 East Durant Avenue, Aspen, Colorado. This property is
legally described as follows:
Lots P,Q,R,S and the Westerly 18 feet of the
vacated Cleveland Street, Block 118, City and
Townsite of Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado.
The requested allotment is for nine new lodge units, which
will be built in conjunction with the reconstruction and
rehabilitation of the existing structures on the site, will
facilitate the fulfillment of the objectives of the Growth
Management Plan and of the L-3 Lodge Zone in the following
ways:
1. The present lodge buildings have been remodeled
and added to many times over the years in an attempt to
revive visitors' interest in the accommodations. As a
result of today's highly competitive market, this lodge is
no longer adequate to serve its guests, and at the same
time is not economical to operate. At present, the
buildings have a vaguely Alpine chalet appearance. With
the addition and the complete overhaul and remodel of the
existing structures, this image will be enhanced and
improved. The materials on the exterior will be wood and
stucco, and will add to the overall European flavor.
2. Present landscaping will be retained and improved.
All the existing trees, as shown on the Main Floor Plan of
the existing building will be retained. Those trees that
must be removed for the additional construction will be
relocated on the site. Under the new plan, landscaping
becomes an integral part of the design.
3. At the present time, no on -site parking is
provided. The new design provides for 10 parking spaces
in the rear of the building.
The project is located in the L-3 zone (see zoning map),
and the site contains 13,800 square feet of lot area.
The existing structures contain 20 guest rooms and one
employee housing unit (245.20 square feet). The lodge
public areas include a lounge with fireplace, breakfast area,
sauna and shower area, and outside jacuzzi pool and terrace.
Support areas for the lodge include laundry, boiler and pool
equipment room in the basement, and an office and kitchen on
the main floor.
Four of the guest rooms have kitchens. These kitchens will
be retained, in different form, in the new building.
Existing total developed gross building area is 8716.27
square feet. When the remodel is complete, including the
nine new lodge rooms and the one new employee unit, the
total gross building area will be 13,800 square feet, the
maximum allowable on the site at a ratio of 1:1.
WATER SYSTEM
Water service from the City of Aspen is presently being used
by the lodge, from a 6" C.I. main located in Durant Avenue.
As indicated in the letter from the City of Aspen Water
Department, the proposed development, including the nine new
lodge units, can be supplied by existing facilities. The
- 2 -
present service is by a 1112" line.
SEWER
A meeting with the Aspen Sanitation District disclosed
adequate sewer facilities for the project site. The 8"
main located in the alley, and the 4" service tap, will
adequately serve the new rooms. The Director of the
Sanitation District has provided a letter specifically
addressing questions in the GMP ordinance.
ELECTRICITY AND GAS
Natural gas and electricity are located in the alley, and
presently serve the project area. Such increase as is
needed can be supplied without restriction.
DRAINAGE
Historic site drainage will be improved. Roof drainage
will feed directly from internal gutters to dry wells, and
all surface moisture will be maintained on the site.
DEVELOPMENT AREA
The following figures will compare the maximum building
area allowed by code, the existing building area, and the
proposed building area.
By right the owner can develop his property by a ratio of 1:1.
With this in mind the following figures are submitted for
your consideration:
MAXIMUM DEVELOPMENT
Lot area = 13,800 square feet
Maximum possible development:
.67 X 13,800 SF = 9,246 SF max. rental unit net floor area
.25 X 13,800 SF = 3,450 SF max non-rental/public f.a.
.08 X 13,800 SF = 1,104 SF max. employee housing
Maximum open space required: 35% X 13,800 = 4,830 SF
EXISTING AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

5,875.60 SF
Ann nc rr
8,716.27 SF 13,800.00 SF
6,012.85 SF 5,934.24 SF
These figures show that with the addition of the nine new
lodge units and the complete remodel of the existing building,
- 3 -
we will have less square footage than allowed for rental
lodge rooms. Additional public areas and amenities will be
added which exceed the figures shown in the allowed
development mix and breakdown.
Since this lodge already exists, we will build employee
housing to accommodate any new employees that will be
required to service the new lodge units. Therefore, the
one existing but remodeled unit and the new unit will be
adequate to meet employee housing requirements. This will
be discussed further elsewhere in the proposal.
The open space to be provided will exceed the 35% required
by code.
TRAFFIC AND PARKING IMPACTS
Due to the convenient location of the project, auto traffic
increase will be negligable. Based on estimates of one
vehicle per each two rooms, this project will add 4.5
vehicles to those currently using the surrounding streets.
It is expected that 4.5 vehicles will use or be stationed
at the proposed development. Hours of principal daily use
will be consistent with typical lodge usage.
Presently, there is no on -site parking provided. The
development will include ten designated parking places, which
is one for every new room, plus one more.
Past experience has shown that very few guests at this lodge
use personal automobiles, because they are not necessary. The
Little Nell lift is 21/2 blocks away, two city bus routes are
one block away, and commercial and retail services are within
reasonable walking distance. (See 'Transit Map') In
addition, the Ute Trail starts about 11/2 blocks to the south.
EFFECTS OF PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT ON ADJACENT LAND USE
The proposed development is compatable with land uses of the
immediate neighborhood. The project area is zoned L-3, while
the surrounding area is RMF. The Old Hundred, a 16-unit
condominium complex, is to the immediate west, and an eight
unit apartment development is to the immediate east. Also in
the block to the east is a triplex, a 12-unit condominium,
and the Chateau Roaring Fork, with 43 units. Both the Old
Hundred and the Chateau Roaring Fork are primarily short term
- 4-
rental developments. Across Durant Avenue are two duplexes
which are also short term rental units; the Alpina Haus, 43
units of employee housing; and the 33 unit Roaring Fork
Apartments, long term rentals. Across the alley are two
single family houses, a three -unit long term rental
property; the 5-unit Cooper Apartments, with a history of
short-term rentals; and the 1001 East Cooper development, a
combination of short and long term uses. The L-3 zoned
North Star Lodge is one block to the south.
CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE
Construction is expected to begin within a year of approval
and will be completed in one phase.
SITE UTILIZATION MAPS
The information in this section suppliments the maps and
Preliminary Design Drawings submitted with this application.
A. Preliminary architectural design drawings as
required are attached at the back of this application.
B. Landscaping is shown on the plans for the proposed
building. There is a more detailed explanation in a later
section. All utilities will be placed underground on the
site.
C. Parking, as shown on the site plan, is located to
the rear of -the building and is thus screened from view. Bus
routes servicing the project are shown on the Transit Map.
D. The major street link to the project is Durant
Avenue, little used in the block where the project is located,
but becoming a major thoroughfare one block away. Cooper
Avenue, Highway 82 in the area, is one block to the north.
The Ute Avenue bicycle/hiking trail is 11/2 blocks to the
south.
E. Surrounding land uses are a mixture of short-term
and long-term rental housing, with some owner -occupied
multi -family developments. Zoning boundary lines are
shown on the Zone Map.
F. The applicant has given considerable attention to
energy conservation and solar energy utilization features.
It will be noted later in this proposal that the insulation
characteristics of the proposed building will exceed the
requirements of the City of Aspen's tough energy code.
-5-
Considerable attention has been paid to all areas of the
architectural design to create an energy efficient and
pleasing project. Required insulation R-values have been
exceeded for wall, floor and roof.
The possible use of solar gain, both passive and active,
have been explored for this project. The design and the
orientation of the guest rooms to face south offers good
possibilities for passive solar gain. It is also the
owner's intention to use active freon solar collectors for
domestic water heating. We intend to locate these
collectors so they do not create an unsightly appearance
on the exterior of the building.
It should also be noted that all existing windows will be
replaced with new units that have double insulating glass.
REVIEW CRITERIA
AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
1. Water: The existing water system of the City of
Aspen has sufficient capacity to provide for the needs of
the proposed development and will be able to supply water
without any system extensions or treatment plant upgrade.
The 6" main in Durant Avenue will continue to supply slater
to the site.
2. Sewer: The 8" main located in the alley and now
serving the site will continue to provide enough capacity
for the development. No treatment plant upgrading will be
necessary.
3. Storm Drainage: Historic site drainage will not
be exceeded, but will be improved. All roofs will be
drained directly to on -site dry wells, and all surface
run-off will be retained on the site.
4. Fire Protection: It should be noted that the
project is located about seven blocks from the fire station,
thus giving a low response time for the fire department.
The letter from the Aspen Fire Marshal (see attachments)
identified response time and hydrant locations to be
excellent. In addition, the building will be constructed
to meet all fire protection requirements of the building
code. Smoke detectors will be provided throughout, fire
extinguishers will be supplied, and the basement will be
sprinkled by a dry sprinkler system.
5. Roads: The property is serviced by Durant Avenue,
West End Street, and Cooper Avenue, all wide enough to
carry the small increase in traffic without necessitating
any improvements. Because of its convenient location,
guests historically have not found it necessary to use an
automobile for trips to ski or to shop.
QUALITY OF, OR IMPROVEMENTS TO, DESIGN
1. Architectural Design: In terms of size and height
the building as designed will be compatible with others in
the neighborhood, in that the existing buildings in the
vicinity are moderate -sized condominium and apartment
buildings. The planned exterior materials, wood and
stucco, are predominant in the area. The present Alpine
Chalet appearance of the building will be retained and
improved upon.
2. Site Design: The existing landscaping will be
retained and improved. One of the major design criteria
was the retention of the mature plantings and large cotton-
wood and spruce trees on the site. Those few trees that
are now located within the future footprint of the building
will be relocated and used in the new landscaping. We will
also introduce new concrete walkways,and a new terrace will
be constructed around the jacuzzi pool. There will also be
terraces on the garden level floor. Since the lot slopes to
the rear, it was decided that this topography should be used
to give the rooms on this level a view of the mountain. With
these two terrace areas we will introduce some more formal
plantings contained in masonry planters.
All utility lines will be placed underground, and the meters
screened from view. The trash area will also be screened.
3. Energy Conservation: The majority of the guest
rooms have been relocated so they face south, to take
advantage of passive solar gain.
Along with solar considerations, the remodel of the entire
building will increase the conservation of energy. Exterior
wall construction vrill use 3/4" Thermax and 6" fiberglass
insulation. This will achieve an overall exterior wall
insulation value that will exceed R-25. Roof insulation will
have a value equal to or above R-30. Glass in all windows
and doors will be double paned insulating glass.
- 7 -
4. Parking and Circulation: Parking is provided at
the rear of the lodge, with access by way of the alley.
This alley is closed at the east end and present use is
confined to other residents whose parking is accessed in
this way, and to necessary service vehicles. This parking
will be paved and clearly marked, with entrances to the
building directly. The building itself will screen the
parking area from view of the street in front.
5. Visual Impact: The public view will be entranced by
the placement of the building toward the rear of the site,
leaving the open space and its landscaping in view of the
passerby, and minimizing visual bulk. The west wing ►•which
cut off light as well as the view from the neighboring
building will be removed, thus opening up the site in that
direction.
6. Amenities Provided for Guests: The number of
square feet included as non -rental indicates the spacious-
ness of the public areas provided for guest comfort and use.
There is a large lounge with a fireplace, and a dining area
where a full breakfast will be served. A sauna, jacuzzi tub
and outside terraces are planned, and almost every room will
have a private deck or balcony.
CONFORMANCE TO LOCAL PUBLIC POLICY GOALS
1. Employee Housing: At the present time, the lodge is
run with a staff of five people. With the additional nine
new lodge units it is expected that only one new person will
be hired.
It is expected that with the remodel and revision of the
building, the staff will be able to better service the guests
because of the more efficient use of space.
As noted previously, one employee housing unit was supplied
with the existing building. This unit is 245.20 square feet.
It has been redesigned and a new unit added, for a total of
488.06 square feet of net floor area. Each unit will have
a small compact kitchen.
2. Rehabilitation and Reconstruction of Existing Units:
Plans for this project include rehabilitation or
reconstruction of 100% of the existing units and non -unit
space, qualifying for the maximum points available under this
section. This work, which will involve the demolition of part
or all of the existing building, will be done in
conjunction with the new construction, and will be
occupied at the same time, or prior to, the new units.
BONUS POINTS
This proposed project has met or exceeded all the criteria
outlined in the City Code for lodge development allocation.
The plan will convert an inadequate, poorly designed and
constructed lodge into a considerably upgraded one which
will be attractive, pleasant and comfortable. It will
cause no negative impacts on traffic, roads, public safety,
drainage or utilities. Parking, which now takes place on
the street, will be hidden behind the building. Open space
on the site will be improved. Employee housing in the
lodge will be increased. The project follows the current
trend of upgrading tourist facilities and achieves the
purpose intended in creating the L-3 Lodge Zone.
