Also present City/ County Planner Herb Bartel and Assistant Planner Fred Wooden. Barbara Lewis moved to approve the minutes of May 19, May 1, and May 10, 1973; seconded by Collins. All in favor, motion carried. Stream Margin Request Map was submitted showing Lot 4, Block 1 of the Red Butte Subdivision and the existing two-story frame house almost 100' from the river. Addition would encroach into the 100' limitation under which the P & Z Commission must make a recommendation to the Building Inspector. Fred Wooden discussed the flooding potential findings; a 3' to 4' rise is the maximum flooding. Feels secure that the appellant (Tom Richardson) would be safe from flood; however, a letter from Tom should be received by the City releasing the City from all damage claims. Also, the planned basement should be used only for storage. Collins moved to approve the recommendation to issue a permit and accept the letter from Richardson accepting the responsibility for damages incurred by chance flood. Seconded by Lewis. All in favor, motion carried. Public Hearing River Study Chairman Adams opened the public hearing. Herb Bartel explained that the study was approved as a preliminary report several months ago. Request the preparation of a resolution adopting the plan as an amendment to the 1966 General Plan. There being no further comments, Chairman Adams closed the public hearing. Commission found no objections in recommending approval to the City Council. Fred Hibberd Soil & Site Analysis, Lot 14 Herb Bartel explained request for exemption was tabled by the P & Z Commission on April 5, 1973 pending further clarification relating to fire control, drainage, soil considerations, etc. Fred Hibberd was present and stated that at the Board of Adjustment meeting of December 7, 1972 (Case No. 72-24), the Board granted a height variance to build the 16, one- family, two-story dwellings, provided the applicant meet certain conditions (i.e. fire safety standards and facilities, required parking, 4% public right-of-way, etc.). Also, the Planning office shall give final endorsement prior to the issuance of a Building Permit and they will be responsible for protection for the slope and soil erosion. The report submitted by Fred Hibberd (Soil & Site Analysis) stated it is safe to construct the proposed areas where slope is less than 50%. Hibberd stated section 20-7 for Subdivision have concerning design requirements (parking, etc.). would like to satisfy the City Engineer and take been met Hibberd care of FOR'" '0 C- F. HaEC~EL B. B. a L. co. - ,'.- RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves May 22, 1973 Regular Meeting Final Plan Mountain Queen Aspen Planning & Zoning Commission drainage problems, having his building permit held pending corrections. Mr. Bartel feels the primary way the City has to insure compliance with parking and design requirements is through a subdivision agreement and it is only possible if Hibberd goes through the subdivision procedure. There should be a subdivision plat to enable the City to enter into a subdivision agreement assuring that the technical problems of the conditions can be corrected through the agreement. Recommend an exemption not be made in this case; recommend a subdivision plat instead. Cannot exempt from subdivision if the requirements are not met in advance. Hibberd objects to the time involved in going through the subdivision procedure. Seeks a way to shorten the time. Commission expressed feelings of apprehension. The problems are not clear-cut. Adams believes there is also an access problem and suggests that Hibberd go through the subdivision process. Vidal request City Attorney Sandy Stuller check into the matter to determine if Hibberd can correct the problems and apply for an exemption instead of going through the subdivision procedures. Mr. Bartel said he would refer the matter to Ms. Stuller. Collins sees density cut, no problems with drainage, and no reason why Hibberd cannot go ahead. Hibberd asks if he could secure an exemption for Lot 15 which also needs one. Collins said he generally feels that if there are no problems at all, he would grant an exemption with an additional review of the site. No motion was made to approve the exemption. Jim Reser of Tri-Co Management was present and submitted the final plan. Herb Bartel stated that the final plat as presented meets the requirements of the subdivision regulations with the exception of the subdivision agreement which is a matter for the Council. Prior to City Council action on the subdivision the agreement is to be submitted allowing for the City to change the circulation pattern providing for the "straight-through" south of the 700 Monarch Building to the Mill Street and Galena Street intersection. Also Reser must have met the 4% land requirement. Discussion on the access by fire trucks. Vidal request putting in subdivision agreement condition to require the responsibility of the Condominium Association of final access of fire trucks. Vidal moved to approve the final plan with the condition that the Commission make a suggestion to Council that their final approval be conditional on having a current agreement on the right-of-way going straight through and that the Condominium Association make specific mention of "_..~.."c-"__ -"" r- ~ RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves FORM" C.

Also that said easement from the Ski Corps provide that the intended use is for fire access. Collins seconded the motion. All in favor, motion carried. villa & Depagter Annexation Fred Wooden presented map showing the existing Villa project, presently zoned for tourist accommodations. Jim Adams explained the new zoning changes favor single- family dwellings. There is no problem with annexation, but at this point applicant desires AR-l zoning and the Commission cannot decide on the zoning designation since it is in the midst of changing the zoning code. P & Z Commission is concerned with density rather than use. Applicant states the new units will be multi- family dwellings. Proposes 24 units, 6 to 8 units per acre. At this point, easement rights are in negotiation. Would like to have the property annexed even if not designated as AR-l zoning. Adams feels the Commission cannot commit itself and request a sketch plan as to how the 24 units are laid out. Feelings are different about the new proposed developments than the 12 existing units. Said a better answer can be given in about 45 days when the interim map will be accepted or disapproved. Vidal moved to adjourn the meeting to Thursday, May 24, at 5:00 p.m. Seconded by Lewis. All in favor, motion carried, and meeting adjourned at 6:50 p.m. ~'/ , . /~ Secr tary 6~;/AA / ,
