All persons affected by the proposed variance are invited to appear and state their views, protests or objections. If you cannot appear personally at such meeting, then you are urged to state your views by letter, particularly if you have objection to such variance, as the Board of Adjustment will give serious con- sideration to the opinions of surrounding property owners and others affected in deciding whether to grant or deny the request for variance. The particulars of the hearing and of the requested variance are as follows: Date and Time of Meeting: Date: Time: September 7, 1972 3:00 P.m. Name and Address of Applicant for Variance: Name: Appellant: Address: Richard Wright Box 1281, Aspen, Colorado Owner: Elaine Hodges 150 Vine St. Denver, Colorado 80206 Location or description of property: Location: 615 Gillespie Street Description: East 1/2 of Lot 5 & all of Lots 6 & 7, Block 98, Hallam's Addition. Variance requested: Variance to build a bathroom addition to an existing The existing one-family dwelling is located on a lot square feet. The required lot area is 6,000 sq.ft. ~ one-family dwelling. containing 5,453.86 ..-- Duration of Variance: (Please cross out one) ~ Permanent THE CITY OF ASPEN BOARD OF ADJUSTMENr "'" - Elaine C. Hodges has contracted to purchase the East 1/2 of Lot 5 and all of Lots 6 and 7, Block 98, Hallam's Addi- tion to the City of Aspen, from C. B. Mayshark and Helen L. Mayshark, the present owners of the property. A house is presently located on those lots. A survey shows that the said lots consist of approxi- mately 5,453.86 square feet. Its front line is approximately 62.52 feet, its rear line is 63.08 feet, its west line is approximately 83.04 feet, and its east line is approximately 91.43 feet. The location and dimensions of the property and the location thereon of the dwelling is shown on the plat attached to the Application made to the City Engineer for a building permit to build a small addition on the house. That Application and accompanying papers are submitted with the Appeal to the Board of Adjustment to which this Exhibit A is attached. The said property is located in an R6 residential area. The proposed addition to the house for which a building permit was applied for and denied is designed to house an additional bathroom and closet space. This addition will comply with all maximum height regulations of the Aspen Zoning Ordinance referred to and the residence with the said addition will comply with all minimum side yard, front yard, rear yard, lot width and maximum height regulations applicable to R6 residential districts under the Aspen Zoning Code. There is presently located on Lots 3, 4 and the West 1/2 of Lot 5, Block 98, Hallam's Addition to the City of Aspen (the property immediately to the west of the property involved here), a house which is substantially identical with the house on the property involved here except that the front door is on the east rather than on the west. A bathroom with closet space substantially identical with the addition proposed to be con- structed on the property involved here was added as an addi- tion to the house on the said property pursuant to a 1964 building permit. EXHIBIT A "'" - It appears that a variance from the minimum lot area of 6,000 square feet applicable to the lots in question under Chapter 24 of the Ordinances of the City of Aspen will be re- qui red so as to permit the Building Inspector to issue a buil- ding permit for the proposed addition. The purpose of this Appeal is to obtain such a variance. The granting of the variance sought will not adversely affect the general purposes of the comprehensive general plan of the Aspen Zoning Ordinance, will not unduly increase or contribute to residential density in the area, and will be entirely consistent with the present appearance and density of the area. It is requested that the variance sought be made valid permanently so that the addition sought to be made can remain on the property. The variance is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land and improvement thereon.
