All development to the exterior of a designated landmark is subject to the regulations in the Land Use Code, Section 7-603. I find in my review that the changes proposed to the rear elevation, within the courtyard, do not effect the historic character of the structure. I find the skylight request inappropriate as proposed; skylight approval requires Minor Development review before the HPC. I recommend that you approve this development activity, with the exception of the north elevation roof skylight, as proposed, pursuant to Section 7-603(A) of the Code. If you approve, please sign the signature block below. I hereby approve the proposed development activity. 0,A 24'4 Ah b- Alan Ribhman, Planning Director CC: Bob Gish, Building Department ~~;215 Drueding, Zoning Officer staff.signoff.32 .. , MEMORANDUM To: Aspen Historic Preservation Committee From: Roxanne Eflin, Planning Office Re: Minor Development: 3 191La.~th St. 1- Skylight Date: < July 12, 1989 VE LOCATION: 319 N. 4th St., Lots F, G, H and I, Block 28, City and Townsite of Aspen APPLICANT: Robert Blaich APPLICANT'S REQUEST: Minor Development approval for installation of a flat roof skylight on the facade, to allow light into the kitchen ZONING: R-6, "H", Historic Landmark Designation PRIOR STAFF APPROVALS: On May 22, 1989, staff recommended Planning Director approval for a window and door remodel for the interior courtyard of this structure, finding the changes proposed were both not visible from any street location nor character damaging to the historic structure. We found the request for the skylight installation inconsistent with the Guidelines. Skylight applications require HPC approval , per Section 7-601 of the Aspen Land Use Code. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicable Guidelines are found in Section VI. Residential Buildings - Renovation and Restoration, beginning on page 51 under Rooflines. The Development Review Standards are found in Section 7-601 of the Land Use Code, and are reviewed below, with staff's comments following: 1. Standard: The proposed development is compatible in character with designated historic structures located on the parcel and with development on adjacent parcels when the subject site is in an H, Historic Overlay District or is adjacent to a Historic Landmark... Response: Guideline VI(F)(1) states: "...Avoid adding inappropriate features such as new skylights unless their appearance is concealed from principal view. They should avoid being placed on any portion of the roof that faces the street. Skylights should be mounted flush with the roof to avoid altering the lines of the roof. Bubble-shaped skylights are not appropriate..." The Historic Landmark Development Guidelines do not prohibit .. skylights, however, staff finds the language of the guideline above appropriate for this house. We agree with the applicant that the historic character of this (once) small cottage has been altered significantly, so that very little original integrity remains. As they state in the attached application (and staff agrees) "...this house is a hybrid of 10% original Victorian and 90% contemporary interpretations of the Victorian style..." However, it appears that the location for the skylight is on that 10% of the original structure, facing the street (Francis) which we cannot support. Any further irradiation Of historic integrity is contrary to our preservation objectives. 2. Standard: The proposed development reflects and is consistent with the character of the neighborhood of the parcel proposed for development. Response: Almost all without exception of Aspen's West End vernacular housing stock has been altered, some more than others. This structure, located on an unusually large parcel, has received a number of expansions and changes, all relatively in scale with the original cottage. While facade skylights may have been installed in prior years on nearby structures, we find them inappropriate in visible locations and recommend that the HPC remain consistent with the language in the Guidelines. 3. Standard. The proposed development enhances or does not detract from the cultural value of the designated historic structures located on the parcel proposed for development or adjacent parcels. Response: We feel that the general cultural value of this structure is its interesting, eclectic "collage" Of architectural "Victorian-era" elements, however, we feel that adding a principal facade skylight does nothing to enhance its cultural or historic value. 4. Standard: The proposed development enhances or does not diminish or detract from the architectural integrity of a designated historic structure or part thereof. Response: Please refer to previous response comments by staff, which address this standard. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Office recommends that the HPC deny Minor Development approval for the skylight application for 319 N. 4th St., finding that it does not meet the Guidelines nor the Development Review Standards. memo.hpc.319n4 i
