') Water Abatement Plan for 300 West Main Street, Aspen, CO The log cabin structure at 300 West Main has several distinctive but flawed characteristics that we will be repairing. The scope of repair encompasses rafter tails made o f rough hewn timber that extend past the roof line, large timber outlookers that also extend past the roof and timber columns that receive significant exposure to weather. We plan to mitigate the effects of water on our repairs through the following actions: 1) reset and or replace the columns on the front porch adding appropriate stand off plates so no water can penetrate the footing-column connection 2) treatment of all replacement timbers with a non-toxic USDA Forest Service/National Park Service boiled linseed oil solution 3) commitment but the owner to snow and ice removal in winter as well as leaf and limb removal in summer Since gutters are not a viable option for this historic structure, we think heat tape on the fascia rim may pose more of a problem as far as keeping ice and water offo f the timbers. We believe that a well established ice and snow removal regime will mitigate the majority of the damage associated with winter weather. Also, over time the boiled linseed oil will need to be re-applied to the exposed timbers. We think this should be scheduled every 2 to 3 years as appropriate. B.

Staff reviews the submittal materia ds and prepares a report that analyzes the project's conformance with the design guidelines and other applicable Land Use Code Sections. This report is transmitted to the HPC with relevant information on the proposed project and a recommendation to continue, approve, disapprove or approve with conditions and the reasons for the recommendation. The HPC will review the application, the staff analysis report and the evidence presented at the hearing to determine the projecfs conformance with the City of Aspen Historic Preservation Design Guidelines. The HPC may approve, disapprove, approve with conditions, or continue the application to obtain additional information necessary to make a decision to approve or deny. If the application is approved, the HPC shall issue a Certificate of Appropriateness and the Community Development Director shall issue a Development Order. The HPC decision shall be final unless appealed by the applicant or a landowner within three hundred (300) feet of the subject property in accordance with the procedures set forth in Chapter 26.316. 1 Staff Response: The wood species at 300 West Main Street is spruce, which is a soft wood that is nonresistant to decay. It is also categorized as one of the more difficult species to treat with preservatives that will prevent decay. Repair porch columns and footinqs: Due to water damage, the applicant removed and replaced the frontmost porch column, on the southside of the porch, with a large log column last fall. The frontmost column on the northside of the porch exhibits a severely deteriorated log column, with the majority of the deterioration at the base where it sits on a concrete pad. The applicant proposes to replace the northern column in kind, with beetle-killed spruce, and does not propose any changes to the southern column that was recently replaced. To mitigate water damage to the northern column, and conform with IBC requirements, the applicant proposes the addition of a simpson strong tie base that will lift a new wood column off of the concrete base approximately 6 inches. Staff is concerned about changing the aesthetic of the columns by adding a 6 inch high gap between the concrete and the column. The other option is to reduce the size of the base horizontally and place a capillary break between the wood and the concrete, to prevent capillary action and water backsplash from penetrating the structural wood column. The questions before HPC are the following: 1. Which option should be used to mitigate future water damage to the columns at the front of the porch and meet IBC code requirements? a. 6 inch gap between the concrete and the column base using the simpson strong tie b. Reduce the size of the column base horizontally to be flush with the column, and build the base to a minimum of 8 inches tall from grade to minimize backsplash. Put a capillary break between the column and the concrete base. 2. Should the columns (both frontmost columns, including the one that was replaced in the fall) be replaced with bark covered spruce to restore the original appearance of the porch? Should all three columns be replaced to match the old photograph (Exhibit A)? 3. Should the footings that are exposed above grade have a stone veneer similar to the old photographs? Repair/replace header over porch; overhanqinq tailinqs along the east facade; northeast corner: The applicant proposes to replace and restore the front fagade of the cabin to its previous appearance by using a half-lap joint and in kind wood Dutchmen. Staff recommends that all of the new material be treated with preservatives, including joints, and that wood dowels are used where possible. Staff recommends that staff and monitor perform a site visit with the licensed HP contractor to identify the overhanging tailings on each fagade of the historic cabin that need to be replaced in this manner, as part of this repair project. The northeast corner will be repaired in kind and the removed chinking will be replaced with a similar composition. Mitiqatinq future water damage: Staff recognizes that the environment, wood species and aesthetic of 300 West Main Street promote water damage, rot, and insect infestation. In order to avoid demolition by neglect in the future, Staff recommends that the applicant compose a longterm maintenance plan for mitigating water damage. Heat tape, regular snow removal, and possibly adding an interior drainage 2 system could create positive drainage that diverts water from the exposed beams. No interest loans are available from the City for historic property owners for up to $25,000. DECISION MAKING OPTIONS: The HPC may: â€¢ approve the application, â€¢ approve the application with conditions, â€¢ disapprove the application, or â€¢ continue the application to a date certain to obtain additional information necessary to make a decision to approve or deny. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the HPC approve the application for Minor Development for the property located at 300 West Main Street, Lots Q, R, and S, Block 44, City and Townsite of Aspen, CO, with the following conditions: 1. The two front columns on the porch will be replaced with bark covered Spruce, using the technique described in Option B above. 2.

All deteriorated tailings, as identified by staff and monitor, will be replaced in kind with treated wood. 4. A longterm plan will be submitted before building permit submittal that explains a solution to the water damage. HPC staff and monitor must approve the plan before a building permit will be issued. 5. There shall be no deviations from the exterior elevations as approved without first being reviewed and approved by HPC staff and monitor, or the full board. 6. The conditions of approval will be required to be printed on the cover sheet of the building permit plan set and all other prints made for the purpose of construction. 7. The applicant shall be required to provide the contractor with copies of the HPC resolution applicable to this project. The contractor must submit a letter addressed to HPC staff as part of the building permit application indicating that all conditions of approval are known and understood and must meet with the Historic Preservation Officer prior to applying for the building permit. 8.

APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No. 57 (Series of 2000) establishes a fee structure for Land Use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of application completeness. 1 j. APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed project, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent o f the costs involved in processing the application. APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest of the parties that APPLICANT make payment of an initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT on a monthly basis. APPLICANT agrees additional costs may acerue following their hearings and/or approvals. APPLICANT agrees he will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make additional payments upon notification by the CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred. CITY agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty of recovering its full costs to process APPLICANT'S application. 4. CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staff to complete processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the Planning Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project consideration, unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision. 5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the CITY's waiver of its right to collect full fees prior lo a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial deposit in the amount of $ (47 1--l"which is for hours of Community Development staff time, and i f actual recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly billings to CITY to reimburse the CITY for the processing o f the application mentioned above, including post approval review at a rate of $220.00 per planner hour over the initial deposit. Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date. APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing, and in no case will building permits be issued until all costs associated with case processing have been paid.

The original structure is a log home that has been converted into office and display space for the owner's company; I believe it was a restaurant previously. All the repairs to the building are intended to restore the character and original look. They include extending rafter tails past the eaves, extending 3 outlookers past the eaves, replacing the timber header on the front porch, and replacing a badly decomposed column and its footing. ASPEN COISTRUCTORS %1/0 1 1 Â·.â€¢ 4 Proposal There are no significant modifications to the property included in this proposal. The only total replacements are the right side column on the front porch and the header that runs the length of the porch. Both have been determined to be in a deteriorated state by our structural engineer, Matt Monger of Maggert and Associates, and our timber framer, Paul DiMento of Mountain Log and Timber. All other repairs of the rafter tails and outlookers are strictly cosmetic issues and will help the look of the building tremendously. We hope to bring back several key features of this rustic structure in order to preserve the feel of the Main Street corridor.

Main St. These include the rafter tails and outriggers that extend past the eaves, the large right side column on the front porch, as well as the timber header that creates the front porch. These repairs will be executed in the same wood species (beetle killed spruce) and diameter, also the daubing and chinking will match the existing materials. With the exception of replacing the right side column and header, all other repairs are cosmetic and will bring back the appeal and character of this building. -5> 1** - 444~05~- MagRert & Associates,-Ilic..

We. understand that you are cbncerned with the Water danytge-that ispresent. in vario,us exterior~conditions: .. -4 . The structure in que#tion-isÂ·an'older log kabiR thliti-ik:inbre thAn likely coristheted- of locally harvested timbers in the- earlierÂ· stages= of-Astien's development. Additiorial square footage was latter added both above and below grade on the North &-West end of the building. .This section of the building was wood framed using conventional construction practices and was not an area of concern. The older log structure showsÂ· obvious signs of rot and has.. not.been properly maintained. The decay found on the structure is a result of two conditions where- water. is being trapped..One is to be.found, onÂ·the roof, please .see photo #1, here the log roof - raftersÂ·and horizontal logs that extend beyond Â·the roof line are exposed to moistiirc when it rains or snow.melts. Second the log columns rest directly on concfete or stone, wicking water from rain, snow and from watering the yard, please see photo #2. If these . moisture conditions are not addressed the fungi responsible for the decay will continue to grow and expand; To prevent further decay and structural damaging strength loss the following items are suggested: The roof should be Hashed: to discharge water- away from the wood. The . - protruding Wood that:is is-getting wet should be cdpped with'a stoped kheet-metal surface. And the columns should be.separated from there current .bewing 5eats u-sing, a- Â· . - Ap*~tdfritite W'ater dthrid 6ff base jil,426; --~.1 44 ....1 > - , r. 39/Im#% r.6-AE"PFF qi.F :=1"- Of greater structural concdrn is the top horizontal log at the North .East corner of the Â· - structure. Please see Photo #3, here the decay is reaching further than the first roof rafter and will require the member to be replaced with another log/matching size and species. . The replacement of the log may be done by. tempotarily shoring the roof that bears cjn~ the log. In addition to theses suggestions it is also recommended that the Wood be 2. -- treated with a topical chemical preservative on a regular basis. It should be noted-that the above report is based on visual observations as stated. No physical testing or calculations were performed by Maggert & Associates, Inc. There is no claim, either stated or implied, that all conditions were observed. If there are any : questions or comments concerning this letter or latter concerns or issues regarding this log structure pl-ease call are e-mail.

Exhibit 3 Outlookers -The scope o f repair for the two outlookers on the south side that show severe weathering is to cut back the rot to create a timber frame joint, most likely a half lap joint(see diagram) to allow a dutchman to be sistered in. This joint should be protected from exposure to weather by positioning it under the eave. The length of the existing outlookers is shown in the pictures following this page. The eastern outlooker is approximately 27 inches long from the wall to the end, with around 12 inches of material missing. The western outlooker is approximately 30 inches long from the wall to the end, with around 12 inches of material missing. -The scope o f repair for the north side outlooker is more involved. It has more deterioration than the southern exposure and meets a purlin to form the eave. This has been observed by the structural engineer and the timber framer and has been deemed a cosmetic repair. A dutchman sistered into the existing member with a half lap joint and pegged appropriately will produce the desired effect. The joint should be under the eave in order to provide some protection. 3-1 3 r 91- 4 + 1 . + rk-Â· .0. ~.

There is a section to the left of the porch with 6 tails, a section across the front of the porch with 8 tails, and a section on the North side above the outlooker repair consisting of 2 tails. The repairs entail making a square cut that will be protected by the eave on each rafter tail, drilling a hole, placing a dowel, securing with a wood friendly epoxy, and splicing in a new log. We feel the rafter tails should extend past the eaves 6-8 inches but would like a recommendation from the historical committee. This technique is showcased on the National Parks Service website in the preservation briefs section chapter 26; The Preservation and Repair of Historic Log Buildings, written by Bruce Bomberger. 4-1 49... 46 C-4 - p- 1 CD./ hy iti:r,Tr -11 - 1~: 7-4-921 1 A-\ ....5/6-7//1 - I I \*.

By Certified Mail March 9,2007 Ms. Corrine MeGovern THE CITY OF AspEN Mittel Europa 300 West Main Street Aspen, CO 81611 Re: 300 West Main Street Dear Ms. MeGovern: This letter is to inform you that a show cause hearing will be held Wednesday, April 11, 2007, at 5:00 pm in the Council Chambers meeting room in City Hall. The purpose of the hearing will be to determine if sufficient evidence exists to find that you violated Sections 26.415.070 through 26.415.100 of the Aspen Municipal Code. Section 26.415.140 of the Land Use Code authorizes the Historic Preservation Commission to conduct a public hearing regarding violations of Sections 26.415.070 through 26.415.100 of the Aspen Municipal Code. The City's Historic Preservation Officer alleges that you have violated the following sections of the Aspen Municipal Code: 1. Section 26.415.070. Prior to July 2006, you undertook, or employed someone to undertake, work on the property located at 300 West Main Street, Aspen, Colo., a locally designated landmark property, without first obtaining a building permit or a Development Order from the Historic Preservation Commission. 2. Section 26.415.070. On or about October 31, 2006, you undertook, or employed someone to undertake, work on the above referenced property without first obtaining a building permit or a Development Order from the Historic Preservation Commission, violating a stop work order issued on June 22,2006. 3. Section 26.415.070. On or about December 12, 2006, you undertook, or employed someone to undertake work, on the above referenced property without first obtaining a building permit or a Development Order from the Historic Preservation Commission, in violation of a stop work order issued on November 15,2006. You are advised to bring legal counsel if you desire. Be advised that the Historic Preservation Officer will recommend to HPC that they impose a moratorium on issuing building permits for your property at 300 West Main Street, other than necessary repairs and maintenance, for up to ten years, as stated in Section 26.415.140 of the Aspen Municipal Code. A AL' 4 This hearing does not take the place of the minor development hearing at HPC regarding necessary maintenance to the building scheduled on April 25,2007. Sincerely, Sara Adams Preservation Planner CC: John Worcester, Aspen City Attorney Jim True, Attorney Stephen Kanipe, Chief Building O fficial Chris Bendon, Community Development Director ,. MEMORANDUM TO: Aspen Historic Preservation Commission CC: John Worcester, City Attorney, Representation for HPC Jim True, Consulting Attorney, Representation for Staff Jennifer Hall, Representation for the Property Owner FROM: Sara Adams, Preservation Planner RE: 300 West Main Street DATE: April 115 2007 Section 26.415.140 of the Aspen Municipal Code authorizes the HPC to enforce a penalty of a building moratorium for up to 10 years for violating Section 26.415 "Development Involving the Aspen Inventory for Historic Landmark Sites and Structures or Development in an H, Historic Overlay District. " On April 9,2007, Staff and Jim True met with the property owner and her attorney to discuss the facts of the violations, and the penalty that Staff is recommending to HPC. The property owner, Corinne MeGovern, does not dispute the violations identified by Staff in the letter dated March 9,2007, included in the HPC packet. Staff and Ms. MeGovern agree that a public apology and/or mailing to historic property owners and contractors is an appropriate measure to inform the community of the historic preservation process and possible penalties for violations. We also agree that the damaged sections of the historic property will be restored, in accordance with the Historic Preservation Design Guidelines, HPC and Building Permit approvals, as close to the original appearance as possible. A minor development application shall be heard by HPC on April 25,2007 for the proposed restoration. Unfortunately we were unable to reach a consensus on a recommendation to HPC regarding an appropriate number of years for the building permit moratorium. The property owner and her representation feel that 2-3 years is appropriate for the violations, and Staff finds that nothing less than 5 years is appropriate for the irreversible damage to the historic landmark. The HPC is asked to make a determination regarding the appropriate number of years for a moratorium on obtaining a building permit. 300 West Main is a rustic style cabin and a designated local landmark, owned by Corene MeGovem. July 2006- received a call from Corene MeGovern about "filling in" exterior wood members on the property located at 300 West Main Street July 28,2006- perform a site visit with Building Department to discuss the state of the deterioration and whether the structural members are sound. Sent multiple emails from July 28 - September 18 to follow-up with progress. September 27,2006- issue a red tag requiring engineer assessment submittal in 30 days. October 24,2006- Receive assessment from Barry Maggert and Associates. I send an email questioning some of his recommendations and reiterating to Corene that work is not approved and cannot be completed without a permit . Corene mentions that Craig Barnes of Aspen Constructors will be the licensed contractor supervising the project. October 30,2006- Craig Barnes submits building permit and informs me that he will be supervising the project- and Paul Diamato ( a "wood expert" that is not licensed by HP) will be on the site. The permit is not issued: the problems that I raised in the email to Barry Maggart are not addressed in the submittal. I give Craig a copy of the letter I sent to Barry Maggart explaining the areas of concern. October 31,2006- I receive a phone call from Craig Barnes informing me that work commenced at 300 West Main Street without his knowledge. Stephen Kanipe and I go to the site to meet Craig and Corene. A column on the front porch has been replaced and wood tailings have been cut back in the east corner of the building (not sure when the tailings were cut, probably before July according to photographs). Work is stopped (no permit was issued), and Stephen and I relay that we need to issue a permit. Our main concern is getting the cabin through the winter with snow load- we need confirmation that the structural problems can last throughout the winter. I inform Corene that she needs submit an application to HPC that proposes a long term solution mitigating the water damage to the historic logs, and she must receive HPC approval for this work. November 13,2006- I receive an email from Barry Maggart confirming that the cabin will survive the winter snow load. November 14, 2006- Stephen and I discuss the letter from Barry and decide that periodic visual inspection must occur during the course of the winter- especially after large snow storms. Amy and I decided that we will provide a deadline for an HP application for minor development and a deadline for work to be complete in the spring. December 12, 2006- The tailings were cut above the front porch and a gutter was installed without approval by HPC or a building permit. 3 h - A LEGEND AND NOTES 1--10 O FOUND SURVEY MONUMENT AS DESCR I BED 0 10 20 G CITY MONUMENT POSTED ADDRESS: -314- 8 SURVEY CONTROL TITLE INFORMATION FURNISHED BY: PITKIN COUNTY TITLE.
