NOTICE OF APPROVAL For An Insubstantial Amendment to the Maroon Creek Club Planned Unit Development, An Amendment to Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners Resolution No. 111, Series of 1991 Parcel ID No. 2'73511309049 APPLICANT: Aspen Valley Ski Club (AVSC), with permission from the owner, Aspen Skiing Company REPRESENTATIVE: Craig Ward, Member of AVSC Board of Directors SUBJECT & SITE OF Land grading and slope re-sculpting for Nordic jumps on AMMENDMENT: property described as Maroon Creek Club PUD, Lot 49 SUMMARY: AVSC and the Aspen Skiing Company have requested to modify the slope profile on the Eagle Hill ski slope at Buttermilk TieHack Ski Area in order to accommodate 20 meter and 35 meter Nordic ski jumps. Soil on the existing ski trail will be re-sculpted to allow for jump lift, landing and run-out sections for the jump alignment. Off-site soils will not be brought in as the jump profile will be created through minor cutting and filling on the slope. No structures or buildings are proposed. STAFF EVALUATION: Staff supports the proposed Nordic jump concept and the necessary PUD amendment because it is consistent with the current and long term use of the subject land as a ski area trail. This area of Lower TieHack has historically been an area of ski racing and events because of its easy accessibility, ski slope grade and easy viewing by spectators. Creating the actual jump and landing areas from soil minimizes the amount of snow-making necessary when last year these jump components needed to be sculpted from snow. In the long run, Staff finds that this is more environmentally sensitive to the land and saves energy, water and minimizes the cost of maintaining the Nordic jumps with powered equipment. Staff finds that the proposed amendment meets the criteria for an insubstantial amendment pursuant to section 26.445.100 of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. DECISION: The Community Development Director finds the Insubstantial Planned Unit Development Amendment to be consistent with the review criteria (Exhibit A) and thereby, APPROVES the amendment as specified below. .~ P The approved amendment to the Maroon Creek Club PUD, allows for a change to the slope profile on Eagle Hill of Lower TieHack, as illustrated in the application dated September 19, 2005, attached, with the following conditions: 1. Revegetation of the disturbed soils shall be completed immediately following the completion of the earth work and within no more than five (5) working days from earth work completion. Revegetaion shall be in conformance with the City of Aspen Parks Department standards as follows: A. Soil Prep: 1. Top soil should be good clean organic soil (free of weeds and rocks) 2. Minimum top soil requirements is 6" in depth B. Seeding Procedure: 1. Hand broadcast (spread seed be hand) 2. Hand rake seed into top soil (soil seed contact is critical for growth) 3. Cover area with weed free straw (holds moisture and protects seed) C. Inspection: The applicant shall call the Parks Department at 429-2035 for inspection of the revegetation to ensure compliance with these standards. 2. No buildings or structures as defined by the City of Aspen Municipal Code are included in this approval. 3. Storm water shall be handled in a manner consistent with the pre- amendment condition of the ski slope. 4. The applicants shall apply for and gain approval for an Access/Infrastructure Permit from the City of Aspen Building Department. 5. Fees for this Insubstantial Amendment and for the Access/Infrastructure Permit are waived for AVSC, a Ioca1501 (c) 3non-profit organization.

The parcel is owned by the Aspen Skiing Company, Box 1248, Aspen, CO 8(61.1 G) See the attached site pla7i,, Exhibit A, which is attached. 7) The AVSC, a local 501. C-3 non profit organization, wishes to madify the skt slope just north of the lower Tieback Lift by re-grading portions of it to accanunodatc a series of ski jumps. This application is being made in cooperation wzth the ASC who oversee Che winter operation of the site c~ithin the Buttermilk Ski Area. No man-made structures higher than six feet will be bruit on the slape, as the jumps will be contoured into the existing slope. The pitch of certain portions of the slope will be decreased or increased as required by the jump profiles, the outrun will bc: made more level, and a series of drainage conduit and gravel troughs will be installed to deal wit}r year round runoff. Sonic of the dirt excavated from below will be moved uphill to create the proper contours. See Exhibit A for the existing site plan and topography, Lxhibit B for the proposed wading plan, and Exhibit C for the hill profiles to be obtained by this re- grading. Aspen Eartlunoving will be the contractor performing the work, along with the installatimr of the proper drainage systems. I2e-seeding of all dishzrbed soils will 0e done immediately and aggressively wi[Iz a high altitude mix of Bass seed historically used by the Aspen Skiing Company. 1111 disturbed soils will then be co~~ered with straw and straw "blazilcets" used by 3octil landscapers. Ute City Landworks wiIl eonsnit and assist in the revegetation plan. Waiver of Land Use Fees: AVSC hereby requests a waiver of all application fees, due to the size and scope of t3~~is minor project within the Maroon Creels Cub PL'I7.

Soil on the existing ski trail will be re-sculpted to allow for jump lift, landing and run-out sections for the jump alignment. Off-site soils will not be brought in as the jump profile will be created through minor cutting and filling on the slope. No structures or buildings are proposed. STAFF EVALUATION: Staff supports the proposed Nordic jump concept and the necessary PUD amendment because it is consistent with the current and long term use of the subject land as a ski area trail. This area of Lower TieHack has historically been an area of ski racing and events because of its easy accessibility, ski slope grade and easy viewing by spectators. Creating the actual jump and landing areas from soil minimizes the amount of snow-making necessary when last year these jump components needed to be sculpted from snow. In the long run, Staff finds that this is more environmentally sensitive to the land and saves energy, water and minimizes the cost of maintaining the Nordic jumps with powered equipment. Staff finds that the proposed amendment meets the criteria for an insubstantial amendment pursuant to section 26.445.100 of the City of Aspen Land Use Code. DECISION: The Community Development Director finds the Insubstantial Planned Unit Development Amendment to be consistent with the review criteria (Exhibit A) and thereby, APPROVES the amendment as specified below. ..~ The approved amendment to the Maroon Creek Club PUD, allows for a change to the slope profile on Eagle Hill of Lower TieHack, as illustrated in the application dated September 19, 2005, attached, with the following conditions: 1. Revegetation of the disturbed soils shall be completed immediately following the completion of the earth work and within no more than five (5) working days from earth work completion. Revegetaion shall be in conformance with the City of Aspen Parks Department standards as follows: A. Soil Prep: 1. Top soil should be good clean organic soil (free of weeds and rocks) 2. Minimum top soil requirements is 6" in depth B. Seeding Procedure: 1. Hand broadcast (spread seed be hand) 2. Hand rake seed into top soil (soil seed contact is critical for growth) 3. Cover area with weed free straw (holds moisture and protects seed) C. Inspection: The applicant shall call the Parks Department at 429-2035 for inspection of the revegetation to ensure compliance with these standards. 2. No buildings or structures as defined by the City of Aspen Municipal Code are included in this approval. 3. Storm water shall be handled in a manner consistent with the pre- amendment condition of the ski slope. 4. The applicants shall apply for and gain approval for an Access/Infrastructure Permit from the City of Aspen Building Department. 5. Fees for this Insubstantial Amendment and for the Access/Infrastructure Permit are waived for AVSC, a loca1501 (c) 3non-profit organization.
