MEMORANDUM TO: Design Review Appeal Committee THRU: Stan Clauson, Community Development Directoi c~ Julie Ann Woods, Community Development Deputy Director FROM: Saza Thomas, Zoning Enforcement Officer DATE: February 19, 1997 RE: 377 Silverlode Drive -Appeal from Design Standazds SUMMARY: The applicant requests a waiver of the Ordinance #30 standazd related to the garage setback requirement. APPLICANT: Alice Brien, represented by David Panico LOCATION: 377 Silverlode Drive ZONING: AH-PUD PROJECT REVIEW PROCESS AND STAFF EVALUATION I. Background -The proposed project is a new single family residence, of approximately 2800 gross square feet, located in the Silverlode Subdivision. II. Site Description -The proposed project is located on a steep, hillside lot of 12,374 squaze feet. The lot is on the uphill side of Silverlode Drive. III. Waiver Requested Standard: All portions of a gazage, carport or storage area pazallel to the street shall be recessed behind the front facade a minimum often (10) feet. IV. Staff Evaluation -The Committee may grant an exception to the design standards if the project as proposed is found to meet one of the following criteria: a). yields greater compliance with the goals of the Aspen Area Community Plan; Staff response: The project does not further any goals of the AACP. b) more effectively addresses the issue or problem a given standazd or provision responds to; or Staff response: The waiver request does not address this criteria. c) be cleazly necessary for reason of fairness related to unusual site specific constraints. Staff response: Given the constraints placed on the building lot due to the steepness of the terrain, staff feels that the proposed location of the gazage is acceptable. The gazage has been angled so that is does not directly pazallel the street, which staff feels has reduced the visual impact of the garage. In addition, the building site is significantly elevated in relation to Silverlode Drive and therefore has a minimal visual impact from the street. V. Recommendation - Staff recommends that the Design Review Appeal Committee waive the standazd that the garage must be setback ten feet from the facade of the house for the property located at 377 Silverlode Drive, finding that criteria "c" has been met. vO~(Id210~~'ITTOpD~'I~I~(~1Sd '~AfrI84 ~Q~OT'IvN~~A'II~S~rLEE e7L ~ 1~ sll ~l ~ ~ s7L ~. 1~Y s7L ~ ~l / Or ~^, A L : f a w ca aY: ~ ~& ~~= e _ - ire- -- r ~ t z.e. _ .i`d. ~ ; r.~• llb' Harr f~J i -- - -- --7 -t r-~--~ ~ _r - - I ~~~ -_- I-#f i ,: i d a ¢~ ..__ ___ ___ ____ __ __ ~ I cr 'I c 9 ~ i•;a z z z > ~ ..~._- J W v..: i > w J K IT W a -_ ~ e•f ~~,*. ._ I I ~ I J J a = ' a o I ~ ' I I e V % \ . ~ p1 _ ~% v - w~-~o u-a F w w x ~~ ~ o _ isi.o~ _~~, ~ ~~ 1 J u J al _i 1'.

Galena St. Aspen, Co. Re: Lot 7 Silverlode, Brien Residence D.R.A.C. Application February 16, 1997 Dear Sara, Accompanying this letter is the completed application to the Design Review Appeal Committee. A letter of summation follows and addresses the Ordinance 30 review standards point by point. General By Aspen standards the proposed structure is a bit of an anomaly for a free market residence. The Applicant is proposing to build a residence that is well below the allowable F.A.R. even if it were 100% above grade. The allowable F.A.R. for lot 7 is 3117 sq. ft. The proposed residence is comprised of approximately 2800 gross sq. ft., and will use up only about 1400 sq. ft. of the available F.A.R. The design attempts to relate to the structures that probably existed on the hillside site atone time. The two elements of the proposed structure are intended to mimic the appearance of two miner's cottage's in shape and state. The fenestration tries to relate to the traditional organization of street facing windows typical of the building that house's Gracys. The variance from Ordinance 30 that is being requested is site driven and ultimately does not deviate from the intent of the ordinance. The variance relates to the location of the garage. The point of this section of the code is to try to move what is considered an undesirable architectural element from the most prominent side of a residence, on a normal residential street, to a less offensive location. The lots in the Silverlode Subdivision are all substantially elevated above the street they front on thereby mitigating the visual impact of the garage. The practical reasons for the garage being where it is are related to the steep slope of the driveway which, without a massive amount of excavation, only allows access to the lower part (the frontmost part) of the building envelope. If the applicant were forced to locate the garage per Ordinance 30 standards the apparent vertical mass would be increased by 1/3 due to the resulting need to dig the garage entrance into the hillside. For these reasons I request that the Design Review Appeal Committee grant the Applicant the requested variance. * Denotes points where this application varies from the intent of Ordinance 30. Building Orierrtation BOX F-3 ~VSrc. "ILOR.IDO 81612 PHONE 970 923 5394 F2~X 970 923 1260 The proposed residence is comprised of two main elements with a connecting element and deck between them. The larger of the two elemerds is tangential to Silveriode Drive. The entrance is oriented to the street. There is a street facing principal window that opens into the living room that is parallel to the street. The width of the house exceeds the width of the garage by more than 5 feet * The proposed garage does not set back the desired 10 feet from the facade of the house. Building Elements The garage/deck element comprises a one story street facing element that exceeds the 20% minimum. Build to Lines This part of Ordinance 30 does not apply due to the fact that all of the adjacent lots are vacant. Primary Mass As can be seen in the enclosed elevations the proposed structure is divided into two distinct elements with separate roof structures, thereby satisfying the intent of this section of the ordinance. Inflection This part of Ordinance 30 does not apply due to the fact that both of the adjacent lots are vacant. The residence under construction on Lot 6 (adjacent lotto the west) is two stories tall at it's easternmost elevation though, like the proposed residence on Lot 7, more than half of it's mass is below grade. Garages and Driveways * As stated previously, the garage for the proposed structure does not set back frorc the facade of the house the desired 10 Feet. The proposed garage is partially below grade, but does not exceed 24 feet in width, nor does it comprise more than 40% of the front facade. Areaways There are no areaways on the front facade of this residence. Calculating floor area ratio All aspects of ordinance 30 regarding the calculation of floor area ratio will be met. As stated previously, the proposed residence will be well under the allowable floor area. BOX F-3 ?.SPEN COLOR \DO 81612 PHONE 970 923 5394 FLY 970 923 1260 Height As is noted graphically on the. elevations the.proposed residence is well under the maximum height. Parking The proposed residence will exceed the parking requirements by providing two spaces in the garage and at least one in the driveway. ff you have any further questions I will be glad to respond to them at the meeting on the 27th.

MEMORANDUM TO: Design Review Appeal Co'ImI~(mittee (DRAG) FROM: Mitch Haas, City Planner,j J~}~ THRU: Stan Clauson, Community Development Director ~ Julie Ann Woods, Deputy Director RE: 533 West Smuggler Street, App al~ of "Inflection" Standazd (26.58.040(E)) DATE: February 27, 1997 Pursuant to Chapter 26.58, Residential Design Standards, Section 26.58.020(8), of the Aspen Municipal Code, "an applicant shall prepare an application for review and approval by staff. In order to proceed with additional land use reviews or obtain a De- velopment Order, staff shall find the submitted development application consistent with the Residential Design Guidelines." This Section goes on to state that "if an application is found to be inconsistent with any item of the Residential Design Guidelines the applic- ant may either amend the application or appeal staff's findings to the Design Review Appeal Board (DRAG] pursuant to Chapter 26.22, Design Review Appeal Board." Community Development Department staff has reviewed the application to construct a residential unit at 533 West Smuggler Street for compliance with the "Residential Design Standards," (See attached Exhibit A). Staff found that the proposal is not in compliance with the "Inflection" standard, Section 26.58.040(E), which reads as follows: If the street frontage of an adjacent structure is one (I) story in height for a distance of more than twelve (!2) feet on the side facing a proposed building, then the adjacent portion of the proposed building must also be one (I) story in height for a distance of twelve (12) feet. It is staffs feeling that this standard requires that, in those areas where the house to the east of 533 W. Smuggler is one (1) story, all adjacent portions of the house proposed for 533 W. Smuggler must also be one (1) story for a distance of at least twelve (12) feet inward from that portion of the proposed structure closest to the shared lot line toward the opposite lot line. The DRAG may find that, either: • The design, as proposed, complies with standard 26.58.040(E); • The design, as proposed, does not comply with standard 26.58.040(E), and must be redesigned to comply with said standard; or, • The design, as proposed, does not comply with standard 26.58.040(E), but that the DRAG will grant a variance from said standard ATTACHMENTS: Exhibit "A" -Letter from Amy Amidon, former Historic Preservation Officer Exhibit "B" -Submitted application package '"~, January 28, 1997 _:,,.;A: Charles Cunniffe Architects Attn: Jan Derrington ASPEN ~ PITKIN , 520 ~.

Smuggler Aspen, Colorado Gentlemen: ARCHITECTURE PLANNING INTERIORS We have submitted the proposed project to the Aspen Planning Staff for as recommended in Application Procedure and were found to be in compliance with all but one of the Residential Design Standards in the Aspen Land Use Code. Please refer to the attached letter from Amy Amidon. The standard in question is 26.58.040, E. Inflection. We believe that the interpretation taken by Amy is excessive and goes beyond the reasonably inferable intent of this standard. Specifically, she has told us that the minimum 12 foot side yard inflection of the street frontage elevation must continue all the way back along the side yard elevation facing the one story element of the adjacent structure to the alley. If this were the case, it would become the side elevation of the house, not the street frontage elevation if required to continue back past the stated twelve jl2j foot point. In the proposed design for this project, we have a one story element which is sixteen (l 6j feet along the street frontage elevation and sixteen (16) feet along the side yard elevation facing the adjacent structure. The one story element of the adjacent structure on the side facing the proposed project is a one-car garage and entry which is backed up by a two story element which is the full width of the total structure all the way back to the alley. The two story stair element of the proposed project is roughly parallel to this two story adjacent structure in relation to the street frontage. Furthermore, the conical roof shape of this proposed stair element is reminiscent of the numerous huge spruce trees that exist on the subject property and the adjacent property. The steep roof pitches and massing of this design are in keeping with the intent of the Residential Design Standards to be compatible with the predominantly Victorian West End neighborhood. We would also like to point out that the rear (alley) portion of the proposed project steps back down to a one story element for the last twenty four (24j feet of the structure. CHARLES CUNNIFFE ARCHITECTS 520 EAST HYMAN SUITE 301 ASPEN, COLORADO 81611 970/925-5590 FAX 970/925-5076 In conclusion, we believe we have in fact met both the letter and the intent of the Inflection Standard in question.

Though the applicant is also requesting a waiver to allow new dormers in excess of the maximum height allowed in this zone district, the DRAC does not have authority to consider this item. This would require a hearing before the Board of Appeals. APPLICANT: Silverstream LLP LOCATION: 926 E.

Enclosed is a Neighborhood Block Plana 1" = 50'. 2. Enclosed is a Site Plan (reduced to 11x17). 3. Enclosed are Building Elevations at 1/8" - 1'-0". 4. Primary Mass is an existing condition, proposed new construction does not increase primary mass. 5. Enclosed aze photos of site and surrounding buildings. Additional photos will be available at the review hearing if needed. 6. As outlined in Section 26.58.20, Procedure, of the Residential Design Standards, we wish to appeal Staffs findings. The guidelines we wish to appeal aze as follows: A) Existing height is non-conforming therefore, new dormers are non- conforming. B) FAR Increase due to volume for glazing in the "no window" zone. A written explanation of our appeal is as follows: A) Height Non-Conformity: The interpretation of Staff, as we understand it, is that because of a change in zoning as it applies to height calculations since the original project was completed, causes the existing building to be in non-conformity. We wish to appeal this finding and/or waive the height requirement for the following reasons: The height of the existing buikling is non-conforming only because the finish grade of a portion of the lowest level is below the previous natural grade. Grades at the North, East and West Elevations as well as grade directly in front of the lower level terraces on the South side do not contribute to the "Non- conformity". 2. The portions of the South Elevation that aze below the previous natural grade aze set back from the furthest south facade by 32-48 feet and set back from the street by 63-81 feet. Therefore creating very little visual impact on the street facing facade. Attachemnt 3 Specific Submission Requirements 926 East Durant Page 2 3. The proposed dormers added to the existing roof help to visually break up the mass of the main roof and lessen the severity of what is now considered a "non-conforming" element. If the dormer heights are reduced, more of the main roof mass will be visible. B. The interpretation of Staff, as we understand it, is that portions of the new dormers have glazing in some locations that is within the identified 9' to 12' above finished floor "No Window Zone" and therefore the FAR for spaces behind those locations must be counted twice. We wish to appeal this finding and/or waive the FAR increase for the following reasons: 1. The intent of this guideline, as we understand it, is to discourage large two-story glazing elements but not to discourage the use of dormers to break up roof mass or not to allow views and natural light. The portions of glazing in question (see Elevations) is minimal and part of upper level dormers. 2. Several of the glazing elements have sills above the floor level. Although they have glazing above the 9'-0" AFF height, the overall height of the window does not exceed 9'-0". 3. The result of deleting the glazing from these location is a possible reduction in the size of the dormers or eliminating them all together. This would detract from the overall design of the project and would not improve the intent of the Residential Design Guidelines. bbattch3.doc ~~ 'I 1 ~I - ~~~ ~', ~ I ~~ s ~ ~~~ 1 ~ ', ~ i ' i ~ 11 ~ ;I 1 i V t ~` i ~ cj ~i ~; -,---~ U ~i -~ ~ ~ ~,, i j --- `1 ~~ I ~~ r--~ ~ ~' I r ,~ _ /f ~~ \\ - V C ~ .a. `~ > ~\ `; < I 1° r- ,' r ~ ~, t l~ r i I ~~ _ ,- r- ~~_ d a '~ ~~ ~~ ~ - -~-- '. i ~ i ~ i ~ ~_ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ' ~ i ' ~ i l ~ I li _. ___...~.. l-~~_ i ~ ~ ~~ ;~, ---~ ~---~-1 ~ I ~'--~.~ ~i i ; ~ } i C i r-- ~l ~-_----~ i~ i i ~ '; ; p _~ ~ ~ ~~~ ~~ ~ rJ ~, ~~ ~ ' ~ --, --~ ', , ~`,, I _~ ri , -~ ' I ~ r ~ t ~ ~~ ,~ /__~ J j IIkOI l ;~ ' ~ 0 O .~ i ~, ~ ~1 ~ \ } 11V 1I \~ I ~I 1 III \\ :S ON3 1S3 G ~i~~~ ~, ~~ !F 1 I Z a a r N Q W m N m Z a 7 O r y Q W N m M w z w a F..
