Thanks, James At 10:19 AM 1 /30/01 -0700, you wrote: James: I spoke with Joyce about this issue and she directed me to direct Chuck Torinus to you. First of all, there are a couple of deed restricted units located at 517 E. Hopkins. They were approved by City Council on April 13, 1982. These minutes reflect that the category should be "low". I am going to contact Chuck Torinus and tell him that he needs to write a letter to Community Development to request a change in the category. I will tell him that a pre- ap conference might be best first so that you can tell him what he needs to provide and how many copies. I would think that the. Housing Office would be the only referral body to City Council. He wants to increase the Category, but since the City Council approved "low", which is now Category 1, he would need to get their approval to change it. The Housing Board would make a recommendation to City Council. The deed restriction was recorded at Book 464, Page 319. Let me know if you have questions. Just wanted to give you a heads up!!

Hopkins Zoning: CC Lot Size: 9,000 square feet Applicant's Request: The applicant received a 1982 commercial development allocation for 18,000 square feet for the City Plaza Office Building. The applicant is currently pursuing the additional approvals that are required by the City -- GMP exemption for the employee units and special approval for the .5:1 bonus FAR in the CC zone district. The applicant received final design approval for the project from HPC on March 23, 1982. Engineering Comments: The Engineering Department commented that the project meets the requirements of the bonus FAR by designating the proper amount of space to employee housing. The Engineering Department also stated that the creation of four employee residential units in the Commercial Core without on -site parking, although permitted under the Code, is not a good idea. Planning Office Review: The applicant is requesting GMP exemption for four employee studios pursuant to Section 24-11.2(h) of the Code. This section exempts employee housing from GMP competition subject to special approval by the City Council upon P & Z's recommendation with such approval determined by community need considerations. Employee housing is a recognized community need and therefore approval is recommended by the Planning Office with the units to be deed restricted according to the City's housing low income guidelines. The applicant is also requesting approval from P & Z for an FAR bonus of .5:1 pursuant to Section 24-3.4 Area and Bulk Requirements, item (10) external floor area ratio. This section requires that .3 of the .5:1 bonus FAR be used for employee housing deed restricted to the City's low, moderate or middle income guidelines. The City Plaza project proposes the maximum floor area allowed with the bonus which is shown below: Lot Size 9,000 sq. ft. Allowed FAR - 1.5:1 13,500 sq. ft. Bonus FAR - .5:1 Employee Housing - .3:1 2,700 sq. ft. Additional Commercial Floor Area .2:1 1,800 sq. ft. Total Allowed FAR with Bonus - 2:1 18,000 sq. ft. Since the applicant has agreed to deed restrict the four employee units to the City's low income guidelines and since the proposal meets the code requirements for bonus floor area ratios, the Planning Office recommends that P & Z grant the approval of the Bonus FAR. Memo: City Plaza Office Building Page Two April 1, 1982 Planning Office Recommendation: The Planning Office recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission grant special approval for the requested .5:1 FAR bonus for the City Plaza Office Building. It is also recommended that P & Z recommend to Council that the four employee units at City Plaza be granted GMP exemption subject to the applicant deed restricting these units to the City's low income price guidelines. MEMORANDUM TO: Alice Davis, Planning Office FROM: Jay Hammond, Engineering Department _ DATE: March 26, 1982 RE: City Plaza Building Employee Housing ------------------------------------------------------------ Having reviewed the above application and made a site inspection, the Engineering Department has the following comments: 1. The application correctly designates .3:1 internal FAR to employee housing, permitting an additional 1,800 square feet of commercial space. The resulting structure is exactly 2:1 external FAR, the maximum permitted in the CC zone under special review. 2. We feel that creation of four residential units in the Commercial Core without on -site parking, although permitted under the code, is not a good idea. JH/co JACK MILLER & ASSOCIATES, A.I.A.

Allocation) Dear Alan: On behalf of our client Alan Shaffer, I request that the Planning Department establish the necessary agenda to allow further development approvals related to this 1981 G.M.P. application and as provided by Section 24-11.5(f) of the Municipal Code. Specifically: 1. Employee Housing which is exempted according to Section 24.11.2 paragraph h and allowed by Section 24.11.10 as amended. 2. F.A.R. Bonus Approval, as provided under Section 24-3.4 Area and Bulk Requirements for the C-C district item (10) external floor area ratio. 3. H.P.C. final approval as provided by Section 24-11.3(d) as repealed and reenacted. I have contacted Colette Penne and she agreed to write the public hearing notice allowing for our appearance before the H.P.C. on the twenty third (23rd) of March. At your suggestion I would like to schedule our hearing before the Planning Commission for the sixth (6th) of April and the City Council on the twenty sixth (26th) of April. Enclosed is our check for $700.00 i.e., $475.00 fee for the Housing Review and $225.00 fee for the F.A.R. Review. Letter to Alan Richmond -City of Aspen March 3, 1982 Page 2 Accompanying this letter are four sets of drawings showing floor plans, section and elevations, along with gross floor areas and employee unit sizes.

The appli- cant is now requesting special review approval for GMP exemption for the four studio employee units (3 at 414 sq. ft. and 1 at 553 sq. ft. in size) proposed as part of the City Plaza project. This exemption is requested pursuant to Section 24-11.2(h) of the Code. The applicant has already received final design approval from HPC and special approval from P&Z for a bonus FAR of .5 as allowed pursuant to Section 24-3.4 of the Code. Engineering Department: The Engineering Department's only comment was that the creation of four employee residential units in the Commercial Core without on -site parking, although permitted under the Code, is not a good idea. Planning Office Review: Section 24-11.2(h), which addresses GMP exemptions for employee units, exempts such units from GMP competition subject to special approval by City Council upon the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Special approval is to be determined through community need considera- tions, including an analysis of the number of units proposed, the type of units proposed and the ren- tal/sale mix of development. Since the applicant is proposing four, low income rental studio units which meet the critical shortfall of employee hous- ing need at the present time, and which meet the minimum size requirements of the Code, the Planning Office recommends that you approve the request that they be exempted from the GMP. Planning Office Recommendation and P & Z Action: The Planning and Zoning Commission agreed with the Planning Office, with both recommending that Council grant GMP exemption for the four employee studios at the City Plaza Office Build- ing subject to the applicant deed restricting these units to the City's low income housing price guidelines. City Plaza Building - GMP Exemption for Employee Units Page Two April 13, 1982 Council Action: Should you concur with the Planning Office and Planning and Zoning Commission, the appropriate motion is as follows: "Move to approve the City Plaza subdivision exception for the purposes of exempting the four studio employee units from the GMP, subject to the applicant's submission of a deed restriction limiting these units to the City's low income housing price guidelines." MEMORANDUM TO: Paul Taddune, City Attorney City Engineering Department Fire Marshal/Building Department FROM: Alice Davis, Planning Office RE: City Plaza Building - FAR Bonus Approvals and Exemption from GMP for Employee Housing DATE: March 11, 1982 Attached is an application submitted by Jerry Michael, Alan Shaffer and Michael Strang for the City Plaza Building (a 1982 commercial GMP project). They are requesting review for FAR Bonus Approval and Exemption from GMP for Employee Housing. The property is located at 517 E. Hopkins. Please review and return comments to me no later than Wednesday, March 24, 198. This item will be on the City P & Z agenda for April 6. Thank you! CITY OF ASPEN 130 south galena street aspen, colorado 81611 303-925 -2020 MEMORANDUM DATE: April 1, 1982 TO: Alice Davis FROM: Gary Esarc&.- RE: City Plaza Building - FAR Bonus Approvals and Exemption from GMP for Employee Housing Better late than never. I am confused about one thing. Is this a 1981 GMP allotment already granted, as the applicant's letter seems to suggest, or a 1982 GMP application as your memo seems to indicate? On the requested review itself, it seems standard to me. Both FAR bonus and GMP employee housing exemption require special review. Presumably, the criteria and ultimate conditions on approval will essentially be compliance with housing office guidelines.
