RE:
Little Nell Insubstantial Sl' A Amendment
DATE:
July 26, 1996
SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to relocate the existing A TM building in the courtyard
between the Little Nell Hotel and the North of Nell building in order to replace one of the two
electric transformers located behind the building and to allow future emergency access to the
tranformers. The A TM building would be moved approximately 10 feet to the southwest. The
application is attached as Exhibit A. Aspen Skiing Company and Alpine Barik have both
consented to the building relocation (Exhibit B).
APPLICANT: City of Aspen Electric Department
REPRESENTATIVE: Bill Earley, Electric Superintendent
LOCATION: Little Nell Specially Planned Area; in the vacated portion of Hunter St.
ZONING: C/SPA
BACKGROUND: In June of 1992, an insubstantial SPA Amendment was approved by the City
Planning Director to allow installation of a 44 square foot structure to house an ATM. The staff
memo dated June 5,1992, states, "The ATM will block the view of the electric transformers, but
has been located so as not to prevent emergency access to the two transformers that are located in
the same area." However, the equipment needed to replace the transformers cannot access the
area. The Electric Department needs to replace one of the transformers in order to upgrade the
electric service to the City's potable well that is located in the plaza, and needs to maintain future
access in case of emergency.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Insubstantial SPA Amendment: Section 26.80.040(E) of the Aspen Municipal Code authorizes
the Community Development Director to approve an insubstantial amendment to an approved
SPA. The proposed amendment complies with the standards, in that it does llQ1:
L Change the use or character of the development;
2. Increase .the overall coverage of structures on the land by more than 3%;
3. Substantially increase trip generation rates or the demand for public facilities;
4. Reduce the approved open space by more than 3%;
1
~
...-,.
5. Reduce the off-street parking and loading space by more than 1%;
6. Reduce the required pavement widths or rights-of-way for streets and easements;
7. Increase the approved gross leasable floor area of commercial buildings by more than
2%;
8. Increase the approved residential density of the development by more than 1%;
9. Create a change which is inconsistent with a condition or representation of the project's
original approval or which requires granting a further variation from the project's
approved use or dimensional requirements.
Only one of the transformers is currently directly visible from the courtyard; after the relocation
of the building both transformers will be visible. However, the transformers are set back beneath
the eave of the North of Nell building, and are painted the same color as.the ATM building and
the ticket booths, and have a minimal visual impact on the courtyard.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of an insubstantial amendment to the
Little Nell SPA to relocate the existing ATM building, subject to the following conditions:
1. The applicant shall submit an amended plat within 180 days of this approval, for review
and approval by the City Attorney, City Engineer, and the Community Development
Department.
I hereby approve the insubstantial amendment to the Little Nell SPA, subject to the conditions
noted above.

Exhibit A
MEMORANDUM
TO: STAN CLAUSON, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
FROM: 0ILL EARLEY, ELECTRIC SUPERINTENDEN~
DATE: JULY 8, 1996
SUBJECT: REPLACING TRANSFORMER
Please find attached an application to move the existing ATM building that is between the North of
Nell and Little Nell in the vacated portion of Hunter Street. This is necessary so I can access the two
transformers behind the building. The original approval of an Insubstantial Plat Amendment for the
construction of this building stated that the building would be located so as to not prevent emergency
access to the two transformers. However, this is not the case. I need to change out one of these
transformers in order to upgrade the electric service to the City of Aspen potable well that is located
out in the plaza. With the current placement of the building, I am unable to get a piece of equipment
to the transformers so they can be moved.
I would like to move the building about ten feet to the southwest. This location would put the
building in compliance with the original approval by allowing us emergency access to our
transformers. If these transformers would fail under the existing. conditions, we would have to move
this building to address the transformer for replacement. This would result in a prolonged outage
and is not an acceptable situation.
I have been on site with representatives from Alpine Bank, North of Nell and the Aspen Skiing
Company. We have looked over all concemsand the proposed location is acceptable to all parties.
Hopefully, this application is complete. If not, please let me know. I am available for a site visit.
I would like to complete this work as soon as possible, hopefully in July. If you have any questions,
feel free to contact me at 920-5148.

I have reviewed the plan to move the Alpine Bank: Automatic Teller Building that is

Re: Amendment of Final Development Plan of The.Little
Nell S.P.A.
Dear Leslie:
Pursuant to our telephone conversation, I write this
letter to request an amendment to the Final Development Plan of
the Little Nell S.P.A. As we discussed, the Aspen Skiing
Company and Alpine Bank would like to put an ATM machine in the
Little Nell mall area, next to the ticket windows. I have
enclosed for your review a picture of the type of machine which
is contemplated (approximately 9' x 6').
During the course of operation of the ski area, it has
become apparent that guests often need cash and would like the
opportunity to utilize an ATM machine. We don't believe that
this was discoverable during the actual planning of the S.P.A.
or the development of the hotel. We feel that it is, in fact,
consistent with the intent of the original Little Nell S.P.A.,
which was to provide a quality experience for Aspen Skiing
Company guests, as well as guests of the City of Aspen.
We believe that the amendment we seek qualifies under the
amendment to final development order criteria. There is no
change in the use or character of the development. There is no
increase of 3% in overall coverage of structures on the land.
There will be no increase in trip generation rates of the
proposed development. The demand for public facilities will
not reduce greater than 3% of the approved open space. It will
not in any way affect off-street parking or loading space. It
will not affect required pavement widths or rights-of-way for
streets and easements. It will not increase 2% or greater of
the approved gross leasable floor area of the commercial
buildings. No residential density will be affected by this
request, nor is the change inconsistent with the condition or
representation of the project's original approval, or which
requires the granting of a further variation of the project's
approved use or dimensional requirements.
The Aspen Skiing company and Alpine Bank would like to
have the ATM available for the start of the ski season. I
,

believe that this type of minor change is exactly what the
insubstantial amendment was intended to fulfill. Putting the
addition of an ATM machine through a full-blown review and
approval process would not seem to make sense or be productive
for the Planning and Zoning commission or city council time.
Enclosed please find letters of authorization from the
Aspen skiing Company and Alpine Bank, proof of ownership,
Alpine Bank's check in the amount of $113.00 for the Planning
Office review fee, pictures showing where the aTM machine will
be situated, and a picture of the ATM machine itself. If you
have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Otherwise,
I will assume that you will place this matter on the next
available City council agenda. Thank you for your help and
consideration.
Very truly yours,

RE: Little Nell Hotel Insubstantial Amendment to SPA
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
Having reviewed the above application and made a site visit, the
En~ineering Department has the following comments:
1. The area required for the Automated Teller Machine was given as
54 square feet which meets the insubstantial amendment requirement
of being less than 3% of the total open space.
2. The proposed location of this automated teller does not conflict
with the waterline easement which goes through this property.
3. will approval of this application open the door for more
automated tellers in open space areas throughout town?
4. Did the property owners of the. North of Nell Building give
approval for this proposal?
