Hill House Homeowners Association P. 0. Box 4153 Aspen, Colorado 81611 July 23, 1979 Mr. Richard Grice City /County Planning Office 130 South Galena Street Aspen, Colorado 81611 Dear Richard: The Hill House Condominium Homeowners Association would like to apply for a Stream Margin Review to construct a single tennis court on the area indicated on the accompanying blueprint. As you know, the Planning and Zoning Commission granted a Stream Margin Re— view to Wedum— Pardee Group (the previous owners) on July 5, 1977 (copy attached) to place fill on the site and at the completion of construction to grade the site level. Prior to trucking in the fill there was a burned out t ailer, years of accumulated trash and parts of an old foundation on the site. Lw the area is graded level and free of all unnatural objects. I should point out that at no time was a tree with a trunk diameter of over 2" removed; a few bushes were removed when placing the fill in July of 1977. The construction of the tennis court will not damage any trees, shrubbery or vegetation of any kind. There is no trail designated for the tennis court area. The closest point to the river from the tennis court is approximately 40 feet, so there will be no changes in stream channel or capacity or increase in sedimentation, suspension loads or pollution. In short, the construction of the tennis court will only improve the visual impact of the site and will have no negative effect on the Roaring Fork River. It should be pointed out that the tennis court cannot be seen from the opposite bank (southern bank) of the river due to the trees on the northern bank (tennis court side). In view of the above, the Hill House Condominium Homeowners Association requests that you fodoerd this application for a Stream Margin Review to the Planning and Zoning Commission with a favorable recommendation. •C/Cki Sincar y James Lee Pardee President • Hill House Condominium Homeowners Association P. 0.

In excavating for the site, Lee has dumped some fill Review from the building site in a depression in order to level the site. . Meyring stopped them with a stop order and required them to go through Stream Margin Review. The Planning Office feels that it is an improvement to the site in that it levels the ground which is there. It will have no effect on the flood plain. It has no effect on the major vegetation in • that area. They have generally improved the appearance of that site. Planning Office recommends approval of that application. Wedum stated that they wanted to use the dirt from the building site to make the property level so that they would not have to buy land after the house 1s complete. Isaac moved to approve the Stream Margin Review of the Wedum- Pardee group with respect to temporary storage of land fill in that lot within the stream margin on the condition that upon completion of site ,' construction the land will. be returned to an improved state. Hedstrom seconded. All in favor; motion passed. - Miller Stream Smith displayed a map presented by Bill Meyers and explained the Margin Review propsed addition. The proposed addition is outside the hundred year flood plain. It is flat topography. There will be no vegetation removed.

Growth Management County Attorney Sandy Stuller highlighted the new draft of the Growth j Plan Management Plan. All agreed to changes were incorporated in the new draft.

An additional 20 percent is allowed to be awarded if criteria is outstanding for integration of project. Only one public hearing is required with a fifteen day notice.
