Adjourn 5:3~ REMINDER: THIS COMMITTEE MEETS THE SECOND THURSDAY OF EVERY MONTH (IF NEEDED) AT 4 P.M. MEMORANDUM TO: Design Review Appeals Committee FROM: Amy Amidon, Historic Preservation Officer DATE:~996 RE: 307 W. Francis, Eberstein- Appeal from Design Standards -------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to construct a single stall garage, partially below grade, facing the street. Waiver of Ordinance #30 standards, as described below is requested. In addition, the applicant must request a setback variance from the Board of Adjustments due to the driveway slab being within the frontyard setback. The Engineering Department must be petitioned to allow a driveway in excess of 12% grade. Through this project, Staff has clarified with the City Attorney's office that DRAC does have the ability to waive the FAR penalty for "volume," windows in the "no window zone." Given that this house has pre-existing windows which violate the standard, staff could support this waiver. PROJECT REVIEW PROCESS AND STAFF EVALUATION The Committee may grant an exception to the design standards for any of the following criteria: a) yield greater compliance with the goals of the Aspen Area Community Plan; b) more effectively address the issue or problem a given standard or provision responds to; or c) be clearly necessary for reasons of fairness related to unusual site specific constraints. APPLICANT:.'Pat and Brian Eberstein, represented by River Studio Architects. LOCATION: 307 W. Francis Street. ZONING: R-6 STAFF COMMENTS: I. Background -During staff review for compliance with Ordinance 30 Design Guidelines, staff indicated that the project was not in compliance with a number of Ordinance #30 standards as well as zoning and engineer requirements. The applicant has submitted an application for review and appeal of the Design Standards. II. Site Description -The property is 6,000 feet. The grade slopes downward from west to east. The existing house on the site was substantially remodeled in the early 1990's. III. Waiver requested- A. Standard: "If a driveway to a garage is below natural grade within the required front setback the resulting cut cannot exceed two (2) feet in depth, measured from natural grade." B. Standard: "All portions of a garage, carport or storage area parallel to the street shall be recessed behind the front facade a minimum of ten (10) feet." C. Standard: "Garages below natural grade...shall meet one of the following conditions: All elements of the garage shall be located within fifty feet of the rear lot line, or all elements of the garage shall be located farther than one hundred fifty feet from the front lot line, or the vehicular entrance to the garage shall be perpendicular to the front lot line." D. Standard: "For single family homes and duplexes with attached garages or carports, the width of the house must be at least five (5) feet greater than the width of the garage along its street facing frontage. The garage must be set back at least ten (10) feet further from the street than the house. IV. Recommendation -The committee has three standards for granting variances: a) yield greater compliance with the goals of the Aspen Area Community Plan; Staff response: The proposal is not in direct conflict with the AACP, nor does it further any of its goals. b) more effectively address the issue or problem a given standard or provision responds to; or Staff response: Ordinance #30, as well as other areas of the code, clearly discourage having garage access from a street as opposed to an alley. c) be clearly necessary for reasons of fairness related to unusual site specific constraints. Staff response: The only practical difficulty to placing the garage on the alley are building improvements made by the property owner. A fenced in patio at the rear of the property could be altered to accomodate a parking space. Staff recommends DRAC deny the variance request finding that none of.the variance criteria are met.
