Galena St. "Durant Condominiums" APPLICABLE CODE SECTIONS: 26.104.100 Definitions 26.575.020 Calculations and Measurements EFFECTIVE DATE: July 21, 2014 WRITTEN BY: Hillary Seminick Planner Technician APPROVED BY: Chris Bendon, Date: July 21, 2014 Community Development Director COPIES TO: City Planning Staff SUMMARY: This administrative determination clarifies why a specific feature of 718 S. Galena Street contributes to the calculation of Floor Area. The administrative determination was initiated by Tim Andrulatis of Poss Architecture on behalf of Durant Condominiums. The requester shall have the right to appeal this administrative determination, as outlined below. BACKGROUND: The requester,Tim Andrulatis,disagrees with an administrative determination by the city's Zoning Officer with regard to how to calculate Floor Area in conjunction with a project proposed in the Lodge zone district at 718 S. Galena Street, commonly known as Durant Condominiums. Mr. Andrulatis submitted a building permit for the property and the Zoning Officer determined the addition of bricks and metal mesh screens would enclose the space located directly under the building resulting in the space contributing to floor area calculations. Mr. Andrulatis' disputes the proposed changes would trigger the area to be measured as floor area. Currently the space is directly under the conditioned space of the building,open on two sides,with a walkway and bicycle storage within it. DISCUSSION: Staff relied on three (3) sections of the Land Use Code to render this administrative determination. Following are.the sections, emphasis added. Citations: A. Section 26.104.100, Definitions— Storage Area Calculations and Measurements Definitions Rendered July 21, 2014 Page 1 of 3 A detached accessory structure or a separately accessible portion of a structure, intended to house items normally associated with the principal use of the property but not independently capable of residential, commercial or lodging use. Areas defined for storage purposes shall not contain plumbing fixtures or mechanical equipment that support the principal residential, commercial or lodging use of the property. Mechanical equipment may be located in conjunction with storage space, but the floor area on which mechanical equipment exists shall not be considered storage area (emphasis added). B. Section 26.575.020(D), Calculations and Measurements, Measuring Floor Area — Decks, Balconies, Loggias, Gazebos, Exterior Stairways, and non Street-Facing Porches The calculation of the Floor Area of a building or a portion thereof shall not include decks, balconies, exterior stairways, non Street-facing porches, gazebos and similar features, unless the area of these features is greater than fifteen percent(15%) of the maximum allowable floor area for the property and the use.and density proposed. If the area of these features exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the property's maximum allowable Floor Area(for that use and density proposed)only the areas in excess of the fifteen percent (15%) shall be attributed towards the allowable Floor Area for the property. The area of these features shall be the maximum footprint of the feature including railings, fixed seating, fixed planter boxes, overhangs, and similar structural components of the feature. Unenclosed areas beneath Decks, Balconies,and exterior stairways shall be exempt from Floor Area calculations unless that area is used as a carport. (See provisions for garages and carports, Subsection 7.) Enclosed and unconditioned areas beneath Porches, Gazebos, and Decks or Balconies when those elements have a finished floor level within thirty (30) inches of the surrounding finished grade shall be exempt from Floor Area calculations regardless of how that area is used (emphasis added). C. Section 26.575.020(D), Calculations and Measurements, Measuring Floor Area - Sheds, Storage Areas, and similar Accessory Structures. Sheds, storage areas, greenhouses, and similar uninhabitable accessory structures, not within a garage, are exempt from floor area limitations up to a maximum exemption of thirty-two (32) square feet per residence. Storage areas within a garage shall be treated as garage space eligible for the garage exemption only. Accessory structures thirty-six inches or less in height, as measured from finished grade, shall be exempt from Floor Area calculations (also see setback limitations). Accessory structures larger than thirty-two square feet per primary residence and more than thirty-six inches in height shall be included in their entirety in the calculation of Floor Area. Properties which do not contain residential units are not eligible for this Floor Area exemption (emphasis added). Citation A defines a storage area as a mutually inclusive portion of a principal residential, commercial or lodging structure with independent access from the principal structure. Mechanical Calculations and Measurements Definitions Rendered July 21, 2014 Page 2 of 3 equipment may be associated with a storage area; however, the area which mechanical equipment is placed shall not count towards floor area. Citation B outlines how unenclosed areas beneath features such as a balcony, deck or exterior stairway should be attributed to flood area. If the area is within 30 inches of adjacent finished grade and the area is not utilized as a carport; the area shall be exempt from floor area calculations. Citation C states that storage areas and similar uninhabitable accessory structures receive an exemption in floor area calculations provided they are less than 32 square feet in area per residence and are less than 36 inches in height. These elements are wholly calculated in floor area where these two provisions are not met. The terms"wall"and"enclosure"are not explicitly defined in the above definitions. The definition of enclosure in Merriam-Webster Dictionary is "an area that is surrounded by a wall, fence, etc.". Wall is defined as "a structure of brick, stone, etc., that surrounds an area or separates an area or separates one area from another". DETERMINATION: Currently, the west elevation of the building, which faces South Galena, has two pier-like structures on either end of the building and a boiler room located at the center of the structure. The west facing element is not currently enclosed. The grade of the element slopes back to the rear fagade of the building, creating two triangular-shaped openings on the north and south elevations. The element in question is an uninhabitable outdoor space not adjacent to a living area, open on three sides, at-grade, unpaved and beneath the mass of the structure. This area, while not specifically defined in the Code, is considered a feature similar to an"Unenclosed area(s) beneath Decks,Balconies, and exterior stairways". These elements are exempt from floor area calculations when they are not utilized as a carport. However, when the feature becomes enclosed, even if unconditioned, the feature is now counted towards as Floor Area. The proposed changes would encase the existing open sides with a brick wall containing openings where metal screens would be placed on the west,street-facing side of the element. The placement of a brick wall would enclose the element on the west elevation. The proposed changes to the north and south elevations would install wire mesh metal screens mounted to metal rails. No brick is proposed on this side. The element would be covered by the mass of the existing structure. The element would be an area not intended as living space. The proposed element would not have access from the primary structure. Therefore, the element is considered to be storage area and similar uninhabitable structures. Those areas in excess of 32 square feet per dwelling unit and greater than 36 inches in height will be considered in floor area calculations. This administrative determination was provided on July 21, 2014 and shall become effective July 21, 2014. This administrative determination shall be valid until such time as the code sections specified are amended. Calculations and Measurements Definitions Rendered July 21, 2014 Page 3 of 4 APPEAL OF DECISION: Any person with a right to appeal an adverse decision or determination shall initiate an appeal by filing a notice of appeal on a form prescribed by the Community Development Director. The notice of appeal shall be filed with the Community Development Director and with the City office or department rendering the decision or determination within fourteen (14) days of the date of the decision or determination being appealed.Failure to file suck notice of appeal within the prescribed time shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Title to appeal any decision or determination. Calculations and Measurements Definitions Rendered July 21, 2014 Page 4 of 4 pOSS ARCHITEC- URE-4-PLANNING May 20, 2014 City of Aspen Planning Department 130 South Galena Street, Third Floor, Aspen, CO. 81611 Attention:Jim Pomeroy Poss Architecture and Planning disputes the interpretation that"aesthetic screens" make the area tinder the buildings floor area.The planning department claims that a screen that is open all the way around and has a woven wire mesh is enclosing the space therefore converting deck area to floor area. The land use code does not define an "enclosed space". It states two conditions; one is, a "Unenclosed space beneath decks, balconies and exterior stairways shall be exempt from floor area calculations unless that area is a carport". The area above is not a deck,balcony or exterior stairway.Also, unenclosed is not defined.Two is, a "Enclosed and unconditioned areas beneath porches,gazebos and decks or balconies when those elements have a finished floor level within 30 inches of the surrounding finished grade shall be exempt from floor area calculations regardless of how that area is used".The area above is not a porch,gazebo and deck or balcony. It is an unconditioned space. Enclosed is not defined in the land use code. The grade below these areas cannot be altered due to affecting existing height per the planning department.Therefore, Poss Architecture and planning disputes the fact that"aesthetic screens" enclose the areas below the building. How can an steel structure open on all four sides with a woven wire mesh enclose the space? Please see attached letters from HOA's for adjacent property owners that request "aesthetic screens" to mask the extremely unsightly areas.

I am writing to support the Durant Condominiums installing privacy screens in the low open areas underneath their building. The spaces that the privacy screen would mask are extremely unsightly and collect debris. The spaces are not habitable in any way as they have no floor, no lighting,and no solid enclosure. To interpret these spaces as floor to area ratio (FAR)is not logical. We want to support renovations that improve this neighborhood and this is a simple solution to solve an eyesore. You,staff and the City Council have been working to improve the opportunities for core condominiums to improve. This is a god chance to help.The Durant Condominiumsare renovating their building and improving the neighborhood in a much needed fashion. Thank you for help in improving the Galena neighborhood.

The spaces that the privacy screen would mask are extremely 1 unsightly and collect debris. The spaces are not habitable in any way as they have no floor, no lighting,and no solid enclosure. To interpret these spaces as floor to area ratio (FAR) would, in my option, be quite bizarre. I applaud Durant Condominiums for renovating their building and improving the neighborhood in a much needed fashion. Our Condominium strongly supports their efforts on this project in general and the privacy screens in particular. Not to approve privacy screens would leave that portion of their project in an unsightly 1960's lousy development fashion. I've been a property owner in Aspen continuously since 1974 and I personally run a large real estate company, operating nationally, and I'm not aware of any jurisdiction that would interpret appropriately designed privacy screening to be FAR and I'm positive that a design could be put forth which gives adequate assurances to the city that the space would not be used inappropriately. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. 'Very .ruly yours,_ 1�ichard Friedman cc. Bart Johnson, Esq.

The Zoning Officer determined that the screens would, in effect, enclose the space, and convert that space from deck to Floor Area. The applicant does not wish to calculate Floor Area for the entire development, and also raise the possibility of having no extra Floor Area available. Therefore, the applicant is disputing this administrative determination, and asking for a formal interpretation of the relevant code sections. The determination was made using Section 26.575.020.D Measuring Floor Area, as well as Section 26.104.100 Definitions.
