Anderson Jr., City Manager ~;L--t:-- Rubey Park SPA Conceptual SUbmission/Growth Management Quota system Exemption TO: THRU: RE: DATE: July 13, 1987 ------~--------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION The Roaring Fork Transit Agency (RFTA) and the City of Aspen are seeking Conceptual SPA (Specially Planned Area) approval and a Growth Management Quota System (GMQS) exemption for improvements to the bus depot and transit/pedestrian circulation system at Rubey Park. This memorandum addresses each of the applicant's requests. The Planning Office and the Planning and ~Qning (P&z) recommend approval of the applicant's request subject to conditions listed at the end of the memorandum. THE PROPOSAL The intent of the new Rubey Park site plan is to provide for the safe, conven.ient and comfortable waiting, loading and discharge of bus passengers, both resident and tourist to all points in the city and Valley. The application proposes improving the bus circulation, waiting facility, transit information, landscaping and pedestrian areas. Attachment 1, a summary chart prepared by the applicant, compares and contrasts the existing conditions on the site with the proposed new design. Attachment 2 depicts the proposed conceptual site plan for Rubey Park which was originally presented to the P&Z. Attachment 2A depicts the revised plan. Attachment 3 depicts the existing conditions on the site. BACKGROUND Comprehensive Plan Recommendation - Recent plans for the Aspen Area have recommended the Rubey Park site for transit facilities. The draft Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Transportation Element also recommends the Rubey Park as the City's primary transit hub. ~ ~ Zoning - (Park) with a Drainage, Historic, and SPA overlay zone districts. Size - 27,000 square feet. Existing Use - Transit depot and parking lot. REFERRAL AGENCY COMMENTS 1. Parks Department - The Parks Department offers the following comments (see Attachment 4): o Landscaping - Although the landscaping proposal looks good there is a question regarding the feasibility of using trees in planters as bus dividers (refer to Attachment 4, site plan). As the trees grow they may interfere with bus parking. o Snow Removal - The applicant needs to identify snow storage areas and discuss who will be responsible for snow removal. o Parking - A parking space for RFTA employees should be considered. o Drainage - The applicant should address the problem of drainage on Galena street. Presently water drains to the Galena street Mall which creates a hazard when it freezes at night. It is suggested that now would be a good time to install a drain similar to the type of drainage in front of the MacDonalds on Mill street. 2. city Attorney - The city Attorney had no comments concerning this application but may have some later (see Attachment 5). 3. Water Department - Adequate water service is available to the site (see Attachment 6). 4. Environmental Health Department - There do not appear to be any air quality impacts resulting from the proposal, although buses will be required to observe the City ordinance which precludes idling motors for more than fifteen minutes. Care should be taken by RFTA to avoid non-point source runoff into the storm sewer from fuel, anti-freeze and other fluids (see Attach- ment 7). 5. Electric Department - The Electric Department suggested the following improvements (see Attachment 8). o Metering will be required on the side of the building. 2 r- ~ o Secondary w~r~ng will be required to run to the vault depicted in Attachment 8. o The applicant will be required to dig trenches. 6. Engineering Department - Overall the Engineering Department supports the application because the proposal will greatly enhance traffic circulation and conflicts in the alley between buses and service vehicles, however the following improvements are suggested (see Attachment 9): o All of the angles and extended curbs and drop-off curbs facing on Durant street should be changed to smooth curves to facilitate snow removal. o All curbs must have handicap ramps. o Lighting should be consistent with the rest of the commercial core and be shown on the Precise SPA plan. o All utilities should be shown on the site survey at the Precise Plan stage. o Concerns have been expressed regarding the loss of parking spaces during the Off-season. o A detailed parking plan should be presented at the Precise Plan stage. o Curbs constructed on Durant must be rebuilt according to the grades proposed for the reconstruction of the street. The project should be coordinated with the Lodge Improvement District (this recommendation was made prior to the decision by City Council not to pursue the Lodge Improvement District). Planning Office Comments Conceptual SPA Plan Section 24-7.3 of the Municipal Code requires an applicant during the Conceptual SPA submission to establish the overall intent of the SPA plan and present a conceptual proposal for the use of the site. Technical details are not required or recommended at this stage of the planning process. The amenities for pedestrians waiting to use the transit system will be significantly improved. The plan calls for a four fold increase of heated waiting areas over and above the existing area within the shack presently located on the site. The bus staging areas will be dispersed around the site with seating located adjacent to them. 3 ,-.. .rj Bathrooms and minor ski storage facilities will be provided on site within the building but are not shown outside. Adequate ski and boot storage at Rubey Park is essential in order to provide convenient facilities for Snowmass based skiers to store their gear while they shop and eat in the City of Aspen. The Precise Plan should show in more detail indoor and outdoor ski and boot storage facilities and document the capacity of these facilities. The plan proposes extending the mall from Galena street and Mill Street to the Rubey Park site to enhance pedestrian flows. It is the Staff opinion that the mall extensions are essential to the plan and should be completed in association with Rubey Park improvements. It is recommended that mall bricks be used for paving the pedestrian areas in Rubey Park. We view Rubey Park as the beginning of the pedestrian experience for many AspenjSnow- mass visitors. For some, their first impression of the downtown will be when they get off the bus at Rubey Park. Rubey Park should serve as an extension of the Aspen pedestrian mall. The P&Z and the Staff recommend that the City work cooperatively with RFTA to complete mall extensions this fall in association with the Rubey Park upgrading. The most significant site planning issue which the P&Z and staff has identified is the over abundance of space allocated for ski bus storage (see attachments 2 and 2A). RFTA is seeking an area for ski bus storage in order to store buses on-site during the off-peak hours. The provision of bus storage on-site precludes the need for running empty buses back to the bus barn in the middle of the day and then returning during peak hours. When the proposed ski bus storage area is not used for bus storage, automobiles park on-site. The Planning Office believes that bus storage should take place off-site because due to the location of the ski bus storage, the buses detract from the pedestrian link between the mall and Rubey Park. The applicant has been responsive to concerns regarding ski bus storage expressed at the P&Z meeting and has submitted a revised site plan which is depicted in attachment 2A. A comparison between attachment 2, the original site plan, and attachment 2A shows that the applicant has reduced ski bus storage on the site from eleven bus parking spaces to just five and slightly increas- ed the quantity of landscaping. We consider the reduction in ski bus storage areas to be a significant improvement, but do not believe that there has been enough of a corresponding improvement in landscaped pedestrian areas. While the Planning Office would prefer to see the complete elimination of on-site ski bus storage, we understand the operational cost savings which result from providing for bus storage on-site. It is our opinion that the ski bus storage area tends to isolate the major pedestrian portion of Rubey Park from 4 ,.-, .'} the Aspen pedestrian mall. A critical pedestrian link between the pedestrian mall and Rubey Park is compromised by the ski bus storage. An option available to the Council is the complete elimination of all bus storage on-site and its replacement with landscaping and mall bricks. The trade-off from such an action would be in- creased operational costs for RFTA and a loss of vehicular parking at Rubey Park during periods in which ski bus storage areas are used for parking. Given the original site plan depicted in attachment 2, the parking on site would be reduced form 41 spots to 22 spots. By comparison, given the site plan proposed in attachment 2A parking on site would be reduced to 10 parking places. In our opinion the ski bus storage issue is the most significant issue before the city CoUncil. Improved vehicular circulation appears to be a major asset of the proposed plan. Buses will never have to back up and will be provided with spaces for waiting which do not interfere with traffic flow. Attachment 10, an elevation drawing of the site, depicts a clocktower and message board which is approximately 17 feet high. Reactions to the proposed clocktower vary considerably. Some people like the clocktower and others do not. The Staff does not believe that a clocktower is appropriate on-site, but the majority of the P&Z does. We believe that it is important to have a clock on the site and recommend that a clock be placed on the wall of the bus depot. The P&Z and the staff both recommend that the ski storage lockers proposed for inside the base of the clocktower be relocated on-site. It is unclear at this time how the queuing for the Ski buses will be accommodated. Given the conceptual nature of the plan, it can not be determined whether or not the queuing can be accommodated. The treatment of visitors waiting for ski buses at Ruby Park is one the biggest deficiencies of the existing facility and should be addressed in detail at the Precise plan stage. In summary, the Planning Office believes that the Rubey Park plan submitted by the applicant satisfies the code's requirements for Conceptual SPA submission and the proposed site plan represents a major improvement over the existing facility. However, we believe that the proposed plan overemphasizes bus storage as compared to pedestrian areas and needs to be further redesigned to create a stronger link between the mall and the bus depot. Rather than pursuing the standard bus depot with some pedestrian areas and landscaping, we believe the applicant should pursue a unique, but functional bus depot with an abundance of pedestrian areas and landscaping. 5 ~ .'1' i Growth Management Quota system Exemption - section 24-11. 2 (e) establishes review criteria for a GMQS exemption for essential government projects other than housing. The Planning and Zoning commission is required to make a recommendation to the city Coun- cil for such GMQS requests. The Rubey Park Plan which has been proposed meets the minimum criteria of the code for an exemption because, it serves an essential public purpose, provides facilit- ies in response to the demands of growth and is not in itself a growth generator, is available for public use, serves the needs of the local community and is not a for-profit venture. The applicant has demonstrated within the application that there will be negligible adverse impacts on the community from the granting of a GMQS exemption. There will be no additional employees required to run the facility, pUblic safety will be enhanced and the facility will be much more attractive. The only adverse impact of the proposed plan is the loss of 22 to 34 non- ski season parking spaces. This loss of parking was anticipated when the draft Aspen Area comprehensive Plan: Transportation Element was developed. We consider the anticipated loss of non- ski season parking to be an acceptable trade-off to insure the upgrading of a facility like Rubey Park which affects the vacation experience of thousands of Aspen visitors. Advisory cOllllllittee and Staff Recommendation The Planning Office and P&Z strongly support the proposed upgrading of Rubey Park. We believe the improvements are long overdue and essential to a quality resort experience. However, we suggest minor changes to the site plan to enhance the pedes- trian character of the site. Our comments should not be miscon- strued as opposition to Rubey Park upgrading. We believe that Rubey Park should be very carefully planned because so many visitors and residents pass through the site. The Planning Office and P&Z recommend that the City Council approve of the Growth Management Quota System exemption and approve the Rubey Park Conceptual SPA subject to the followi- ng conditions. 1. All representations made in the application will be adhered to. 2 The applicant will be required to comply with proce- dures of Sections 24-7.5, 24-7.6, 24-7.7 and 24-7.8 of the Municipal Code which address SPA plans. 3. The Precise Plan shall document the quantity of indoor and outdoor ski and boot storage which will be avail- able on the site. 6 ,-.. .-., 4. The Precise plan shall describe the paving materials which will be used for all pedestrian areas. 5. As part of the Precise Plan Submission the applicant shall provide a detailed analysis of the functional bus requirements at Rubey Park including an analysis of pedestrian queuing and bus staging. It is recommended that bus storage areas be reduced if functionally possible and eliminated at a future time when parking is available at an alternate location ( it should be noted that the applicant has already responded to this recommendation as shown in attachment 2A). 6. There shall be no ski storage lockers located within the base of the clocktower. 7. RFTA shall work cooperatively with the city of Aspen to complete the mall extensions this summer and fall. 8. In preparing the Precise Plan, the applicant shall meet with the Parks Department and reach a mutual agreement regarding the compatibility of trees and buses in the bus stacking area. The Precise Plan Submission shall reflect the mutual understanding of the Parks Depart- ment and the applicant. 9. The applicant will address snow removal in detail in the Precise Plan. 10. The applicant will meet with the Parks and Engineering Departments prior to the Precise Plan Submission to discuss the potential resolution to the drainage problem on Galena Street which has been identified by the Parks Department within Attachment 4. 11. The applicant will meet with the Electric Department to address metering, secondary wiring and trenching as noted within Attachment. 8. The Precise Plan Submission shall address these issues to the satisfaction of the Electric Department. 12. The applicant will meet with the Engineering Department to discuss their requirements for curb improvements and reflect those requirements in the Precise Plan Submis- sion. 13. The applicant will be required to construct curbs with handicap ramps. 14. Lighting shall be consistent with the rest of the commercial core and approved by the city Engineer. 7 ,-., t"!"'\ 15. All utilities will be shown on the site survey as part of the Precise Plan Submission. 16. A detailed parking plan shall be submitted as part of the Precise Plan.

All of the angles on the extended curbs and drop-off curb in front should be changed to smooth curves. This will facilitate snow removal on the streets. The extended curbs must have handicap ramps. 2. The proposed lighting is not shown on the plan. This should be the same type of fixtures and luminaire as the rest of the commercial core area. 3. All utilities should be located on the site survey. 4. We are concerned about the loss of off-hours parking spaces. Could the pla~a area be reduced to accommodate more parking? Also, we would like to see a parking lot plan showing the off- hours arrangement. 5. The submittal included the sidewalk areas on the west side of Mill Street and the east side of Galena Street. Are these included in the scope of this project, or for the City to construct at a later date? 6. The new curbs on Durant Street must be rebuilt according to the grades proposed for the reconstruction of this street. Coordination with the ASALID is essential. 7. The drainage plan meets our approval. 8. Overall, we are in favor of this proposal. The circulation of this area will greatly improve. This will eliminate the conflicts we experience in the alley with buses vs. delivery, trash, and tenant vehicles. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ II . . . . .

Technical details are not required or recommended at this stage of the planning process. The amenities for pedestrians waiting to use the transit system will be significantly improved. The plan calls for a four fold increase of heated waiting areas over and above the existing area within the shack presently located on the site. The bus staging areas will be dispersed around the site with seating located adjacent to them. Bathrooms and minor ski storage facilities will be provided on site within the building but are not shown outside. Adequate ski and boot storage at Rubey Park is essential in order to provide convenient facilities for Snowmass based skiers to store their gear while they shop and eat in the City of Aspen. The Precise Plan should show in more detail indoor and outdoor ski and boot storage facilities and document the capacity of these facilities. 3 1"'"'1 ,-. The plan proposes extending the mall from Galena street and Mill street to the Ruby Park site to enhance pedestrian flows. It is the staff opinion that the mall extensions are essential to the plan and should be completed in association with Rubey Park improvements. It is recommended that mall bricks be used for paving the pedestrian areas in Rubey Park. We view Rubey Park as the beginning of the pedestrian experience for many AspenjSnow- mass visitors. For some their first impression of the downtown will be when they get off the bus at Rubey Park. Rubey Park should serve as an extension of the Aspen pedestrian mall. The most significant problem which we have found with the Rubey Park site Plan is the over abundance of space allocated for buses, particularly bus storage (see Attachment 2). The Rubey Park site is adjacent to major pedestrian areas such as the Mall and Wagner Park as well as several residences to the north of the bus depot. While the number of buses proposed for the site may be acceptable in a more urban setting, we believe it is inapprop- riate for Aspen. As designed, the transit plaza, the major pedestrian part of the site, is an island separated from the Aspen pedestrian mall by a sea of asphalt and buses. The storage of buses should occur at the bus barn, not in the City. It is simply not necessary or in keeping with the pedestrian character of the area to store eleven buses on this site. Likewise, we consider it unnecessary to have separate locations at the bus depot for every bus route since all of the buses are never at the site at the same time. It is recommended that the bus storage area be eliminated from the site plan and replaced with landscaping and pedestrian areas. We recognize that there will be a greater loss of parking, but we believe that the loss of parking has been accommodated for in the Aspen Area Comprehensive P1an: Transportation Element. By removing the designated bus stops for each bus route, a few spots can be created for short-term bus storage. We do recognize the advantages of designated bus stops to visitors unfamiliar with the bus system, but feel the space requirements for such a system are too great. With the elimination of the bus storage and the replacement with landscaping, the applicant will be able to extend the pedestrian malls to the site and make the buses fit the landscape of the community rather than make the landscape of the community fit in around the buses. We do recognize that the site plan for Rubey Park needs to serve two purposes, functional purpose of a bus depot and an extension of the pedestrian mall. These purposes need to be balanced in the site planning process. Our bias is toward the pedestrian mall. The applicant needs to prepare for Precise Plan a func- tional analysis of the operations of Rubey Park in order to justify bus storage. Perhaps bus storage cannot be totally eliminated, but can be significantly reduced. It is our inclina- 4 ~ .-, tion that bus storage should occur at the bus storage facility, not in town. Improved vehicular circulation appears to be a major asset of the proposed plan. Buses will never have to back up and will be provided with spaces for waiting which do not interfere with traffic flow. During the non-ski season, it is proposed that the ski bus storage area can revert to parking for cars. However, given the proposed plan the capacity for parking will be reduced from 41 cars to 22 cars. If the bus storage area is eliminated as we propose, there will be a further reduction in the non-ski season parking. Although we believe all of the parking should be removed, it may be possible to retain some parking in conjunction with space for storage of one or two buses. Attachment 10, an elevation drawing of the site, depicts a clocktower and message board which is approximately 26 feet high. We consider a clocktower to be inappropriate on the site. We recommend the removal of the clocktower. The money saved on the clocktower could be used for additional landscaping on the site and further enhancement of pedestrian areas. We believe that it is important to have a clock on the site and recommend that a clock be placed on the wall of the bus depot. It is unclear at this time how the queuing for the Ski buses will be accommodated. Given the conceptual nature of the plan, it can not be determined whether or not the queuing can be accommodated. The treatment of visitors waiting for ski buses at Ruby Park is one the biggest deficiencies of the existing facility and should be addressed in detail at the Precise plan stage. In summary, the Planning Office believes that the Rubey Park plan submitted by the applicant satisfies the code's requirements for Conceptual SPA submission and the proposed site plan represents a major improvement over the existing facility. However, we believe that the proposed plan overemphasizes bus storage as compared to pedestrian areas and needs to be redesigned to create a strong link between the mall and the bus depot. Rather than pursuing the standard bus depot with some pedestrian areas and landscaping, we believe the applicant should pursue a unique, but functional bus depot with an abundance of pedestrian areas and landscaping. Growth Management Quota System Exemption - section 24-11. 2 (e) establishes review criteria for a GMQS exemption for essential government projects other than housing. The Planning and Zoning commission is required to make a recommendation to the city Coun- cil for such GMQS requests. The Rubey Park Plan which has been proposed meets the minimum criteria of the code for an exemption because, it serves an essential public purpose, provides facilit- ies in response to the demands of growth and is not in itself a 5 ~ .~. growth generator, is available for public use, serves the needs of the local community and is not a for-profit venture. The applicant has demonstrated within the application that there will be negligible adverse impacts on the community from the granting of a GMQS exemption. There will be no additional employees required to run the facility, public safety will be enhanced and the facility will be much more attractive. The only adverse impact of the proposed plan is the loss of 22 non-ski season parking spaces. As noted above, this loss of parking was anticipated when the draft Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Transportation E1ement was developed. We consider the antici- pated loss of non-ski season parking to be an acceptable trade- off to insure the upgrading of a facility like Rubey Park which affects the vacation experience of thousands of Aspen visitors. Recommendation The Planning Office strongly supports the proposed upgrading of Rubey Park. We believe the improvements are long overdue and essential to a quality resort experience. However, we do suggest major changes to the site plan to enhance the pedestrian charac- ter of the site. Our comments should not be misconstrued as opposition to Rubey Park upgrading. We believe that Rubey Park should be very carefully planned because so many visitors and residents pass through the site. The Planning Office recommends that the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the Growth Management Quota System exemption and approval of the Rubey Park Conceptual SPA subject to the following conditions. 1. All representations made in the application will be adhered to. 2 The applicant will be required to comply with proce- dures of Sections 24-7.5, 24-7.6, 24-7.7 and 24-7.8 of the Municipal Code which address SPA plans. 3. The Precise Plan shall document the quantity of indoor and outdoor ski and boot storage which will be avail- able on the site. 4. The Precise plan shall describe the paving materials which will be used for all pedestrian areas. 5. As part of the Precise Plan Submission the applicant shall provide a detailed analysis of the functional bus requirements at Rubey Park including an analysis of pedestrian queuing and bus staging. It is recommended that bus storage areas be greatly reduced or completely 6 .,-., ~ eliminated and replaced with landscaped pedestrian areas. 6. The clocktower shall be removed from the plan. 7. The applicant will be required to extend the Mill and Galena pedestrian mall to the site. We recommend that RFTA work cooperatively with the city of Aspen to complete the mall extensions this summer and fall. 8. In preparing the Precise Plan, the applicant shall meet with Parks Department and reach a mutual agreement regarding the compatibility of trees and buses in the bus stacking area. The Precise Plan Submission shall reflect the mutual understanding of the Parks Depart- ment and the applicant. 9. The applicant will address snow removal in detail in the Precise Plan. 10. The applicant will meet with the Parks and Engineering Departments prior to the Precise Plan Submission to discuss the potential resolutions to the drainage problem on Galena Street which has been identified by the Parks Department within Attachment 4. The Precise Plan shall include a proposal by the applicant to resolve the problem. 11. The applicant will meet with the Electric Department to address metering, secondary wiring and trenching as noted within Attachment 8. The Precise Plan Submission shall address these issues to the satisfaction of the Electric Department. 12. The applicant will meet with the Engineering Department to discuss their requirements for curb improvements and reflect those requirements in the Precise Plan Submis- sion. 13. The applicant will be required to construct curbs with handicap ramps. 14. Lighting shall be consistent with the rest of the commercial core and approved by the city Engineer. 15. All utilities will be shown on the site survey as part of the Precise Plan Submission. 16. A detailed parking plan shall be submitted as part of the Precise Plan.

PUBLIC NOTICE RE: RUBEY PARK CONCEPTUAL SPA SUBMISSION/GROWTH MANAGEMENT QUOTA SYSTEM EXEMPTION NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held on Monday, July 13, 1987 at a meeting to begin at 5:00 P.M. before the Aspen city council in the 1st Floor City Council Chambers, 130 S. Galena street, Aspen, Colorado. The purpose of the hearing will. be to consider a conceptual SPA Plan for encompas- sing improvements to the bus depot and transit/pedestrian circulation system at Rubey Park; i.e. to provide for the safe, convenient and comfortable waiting, loading and discharge of bus passengers, both resident and tourist to all points in the City and Valley. It also proposes improving the bus circulation, wai ting, facility, transit information, landscaping and pedes- trian areas. For further information, contact the Aspen/pitkin Planning Office, 130 S.

BACKGROUND: The applicant, Dave Gibson and Bruce Abel on behalf of the Roaring Fork Transit Agency are requesting conceptual submission to build a depot building of 1,000 sq. ft., public restrooms, ski/storage lockers, lounge, etc. The site is 27,000 sq. ft. total with 11,632 sq. ft. being proposed for bus, storage and travel, 1,100 sq. ft. proposed as building coverage and 14,268 proposed as open space and/or pedestrian area. The applicants are requesting exemption from GMP based on Section 24-1l2-te) "all construction of essential government projects other than housing, subject to the special approval of he city Council-upon recommendation of the Planning and Zoning commis- sion". They suggest that the transit center is an ~ssential project. They further suggest that the new facility will be staffed by one person at the ticket/information window from 7:00 AM to 1:00 AM as is presently done. No additional driver,s routes, or service employees will be added as a result of this development, and the net effect on employee generation will be zero. I spoke with David Gibson and suggested that cleaning and locker rental could generate additional employees. His response was that the grounds that are currently being maintained by park personnel will be reduced and the cleaning could be incorporated in the present employees daily chores. The ticketing area is only two feet larger than at present and upon review the Housing staff agrees with the applicants repre- sentations. HOUSING OFFICE RECOMMENDATIONS: Approval of application as staff does not see an employee generation from this project but rather. an expansion for the comfort of passengers. ACTION NEEDED: Approval of staff recommendation. 1 I"""'- . .~ ... MEMORANDUM TO: City Attorney City Engineer Housing Director Aspen Water Department City Electric Eny irQ.llIn~l'It.al..

RUBEY PARK INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this application is to request Precise Plan review and approval for the following: 1. Specially Planned Area (SPA) Plan for Rubey Park 24.-7.5 -.9 The Roaring Fork Transit Agency (RFTA) and the City of Aspen as landowner bring this application as co-applicants. 1 "'" , - - - - .... .... - , ... ... ... , ... - .... ... "'" .... - - SPECIALLY PLANNED AREA (SPA) PRECISE REVIEW Statement of Intent. The intent of the new Rubey Park design is to provide for the safe, conven ien t, and comfortab 1 e wai t i ng, loading and discharge of bus passengers, both resident and tourist, to all points in the City and Valley currently served by RFTA. At the same time, the intent is to enhance the civic character of the site, to make it readily perceived as a transit center, to extend the character a.nd detail of the pedestrian malls to the site, and to enhanc& a park-like ambience on the Rubey Park site. Type of Development. A transit center with the following features is proposed: A depot building of 1000 SF with generous glazing on all four sides to permit good visibility of buses, and a ticket/information window at the center. Public restrooms, ski/storage lockers, and a private drivers' lounge are proposed. Wide overhangs around the one story brick structure allow sheltered outdoor waiting and entering, and recall the image of an old railroad depot. The fl'ee-standing' marquis/clock tower which was shown on concep~ual plans has been deleted due to budgetary considerations. Ski storage lockers have been located outdoors along the north wall of the depot, and indoors, in both waiting areas; a total of 27 lineal feet of locker, or 36 9" wide, keyed, ski storage lockers. Landscape features are proposed to feature 4 foot and 2 1/2 foot tall pat terned concrete plant ers on Mi 11, Durant, and Gal ena. Street frontages. Openings for pedestrian movement and queuing would penetrate the otherwise continuous visual screen of planting. Existing mature evergreens are proposed to be relocated into the raised planters, as well as theon-grade planting areas. Discussion of the success of placing trees in the island along the alley was raised during Conceptual Review. The precise plan has enlarged and concentrated these alley-adjacent planting areas in wider dimensions, which should insure their success. One small island remains on the plan, and the two trees which it contains will be tall and mature initial plantings with a canopy above bus-height. We feel it is important to maintain the planting continuity along the alley. The Parks Department has been enlisted in the effort to meet the budget and the November '~ompleti6n goals of Rubey P~rk by assisting with 'the storing and transplanting of the existing mature tres and other plant matefials on the site for the general contractor. 2 "'" ... ~ ... ... ... ... .... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Pedestrian waiting in a park--type setting a.-e encouraged with benches anchored to the 4' tall plant~rs, and secondary seating along the edges of the 2 1/2' tall planters; a total of 300 LF of exterior seating in benches plus additional seating on low planters. It should be noted that seating directly under the eaves of the depot has been eliminated, due to concerns about snow sliding/safety concerns, and planted areas have been placed along all drip locations, with access only at gable end locations of the depot. The Site is 27,000 SF total. Of this area, 11,200 SF (41%) is proposed as asphaltic area for bus storage and travel, 1000 SF (4%) is proposed as building coverage, and 14,800 SF (55%) is left as planted open space and/or pedestrian area. This represents a modest increase in open space/pedestrian area over the conceptual plan, due to elimination of some bus storage/parking on-site. (See chart following). Winter high season sees an intensive use of the site. The present passenger load will be handled with four ski buses loading (Buttermilk, Highlands, and Snowmass (2)), four city routes loading (Snowbunny, Highlands, Hunter Creek, and Aspen Grove), and three county routes (Downvalley Express, Downvalley local, Snowmass). In addition, storage for five ski buses on the site during mid-day hours is provided. To ease passenger confusion, the same routes will always load in the same "slots". In skier queuing areas, the largest spaces of the transit plaza occur, allowing room for the overflow of Snowmass skiers (up tQ 250). Flush pipe sleeves in the paving will allow for removable lightgage pipe fences for qu~uing for Snowmass skiers, in place of the present bulky wooden fencing. (See Queuing Plan). The Queuing Plan shows an area 40' x 40' which will be queuing the Snowmass Ski bus passengers, using the sleeved pipe fence sections to direct the queue boarding. used for removable flow and In Summer high season, with the present service level, five city routes will run from Durant (Snowbunny, Highlands, Hunter Creek, Aspen Grove, and Music Festival) and three county routes (Downvalley Express, Downvalley local, and Snowmass) wi 11 load from within the site. A potential of ten auto parking spaces exist within theDn~site bus.tora,e area, pot. needed during the summer. Although public parking on the site during "off-season" has been reduc.dfrom 41 t6 12, the add~dsafety, tonvenience, am~nity and attractiveness of the site to the general public and the 3000 to 7000 persons who use this Transit Facility every day of the year seems to justify the improvements as wise and prudent. (See Parking Plan). No designated employee parking on-site is now proposed, person most often now arrives at th~ site by bus. 3 as this ... ... ... Vehicular Circulation is significantly improved over the existing conditions. Circulation is proposed to become one-way, clockwise, through and around the site. This allows passengers to load and unload directly onto pedestrian plaza areas without crossing traffic. No backing motions will be required. If summer auto parking for the public is allowed, the backing into some alley-adjacent angle parking spaces will be required. However, the one-way pattern of circulation will be maintained at all bus loading locations, as well as around the entire periphery of site. ... - - Uses on the site may be summari.zed as follows: Public Transportation Facility Bus stop Transit Plaza Terminal Depot Building Transportation Information Driver's Lounge and Restroom Public Restrooms Public Park Public Sitting, Walking, and Gathering Areas - - ... ... All of the above uses are permitted in the (P) Park Zone or in the (T) Transportation Overlay Zones which currently apply to the site. ... Moreover, the Aspen Area General Plan has identified Rubey Park as the most appropriate downtown location for a Transit Center, and this Proposal fulfills that goal of the General Plan. ... Draina~e from the site will follow the present sheet flow drainage to adjacent storm drains. The pedestrian transit plaza will flow towards Durant Avenue. Seventy-five percent of the flow will be captured in underground planter drains. The bus parking area will drain to Valley pan along the alley and take water to the Mill Street drain. Nosit~ drainage will enter the alley itself or Galena Street. Twenty-five percent of all drainage will be directed to and retained on-site in planted areas. This compares with twenty-four percent which is retained on-site now. . ... ... ... Although it has been suggested that a Galena Street storm drain be considered ai part of this application, this is clearly off the property, and is not included in the drainage patterns or impacts which originate from the site, and is therefore not proposed. (See Drainage Plan) ... ... Snow Removal. The snow wi 11 be as is presently this is the best be stored.

Although it has beeb suggested that this proposal include an actual extension of the Mill and Galena Street Malls or @ 100 feet south to meet Durant Street, this idea has not been approved or funded by the City of Aspen, and is therefore not included in this Proposal. The anticipated project cost related to the mall . extension is $50,000.00 excluding the Mall pavers. - ... It has a1so been suggested that a pedestrian walk be included i8n this proposal running on the North side of the alley from Mill street to galena street. This walk would consist of Mall brick pavers and a rolled curb to allow vehicular access of service vehicles. While RFTA supports this suggestion, it is not included in this proposal because the walk is outside the boundary of the RFTA property and the City has not approved funding. The anticipated project cost related to the pedestrian walk is $4,500.00 excluding the mall pavers. - ... ,... ... 5 - ... ... Zoning. No variations from the underlying ~one districts are requested by this application. The Site has a IP) Park Zone with a (T) Transportation and (H) Historic overlay. The set backs proposed are "0" feet for structures, and a height of less than 22 feet for structures. All other bulk and area proposals are as shown on the accompanying plans and summary chart. ... ... Development Schedule The proposed Schedule for Development is as follows: - 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Final SPA Planning Approval: Aug 24, 1987 Execution of S.P.A. Agreement: Sept, 1987 Beginning of Construction: Sept, 1987 Substantial Completion of Construction: Late Nov, 1987 Finishing of Landscaping & Paving Details: Spring, ]988 - ... The Construction budget for the project is in lhe range of $250,000, or less than $IO/S.F. This is quite a modest budget, considering the extent of new paving, curbing and building improvements. The actu,\l improved areas and pedestrian walks extend beyond the property lines by approximately 3000 square feet, giving an improved area of over 30,000 S.F. in total. ... ... In the interest of meeting the budgetary goals of this Project which will benefit the public, it is requested that the Planning Approvals review fees of $2,200 (conceptual) and $2,150 (Precise) be rebated to RFTA, the funding Agency for the Project. Relief also is requested from water and sewer tap fees and building plan check and permit fees. ... ... INTERIM OPERATIONAL PLAN ... It is RFTA's desire to move their operation one block west on Durant Street to Wagner Park. This would only require that the City reinstitute "no parking" on the north side of Durant Street between Mill and Monarch Streets. This is presently done during the winter season. - , ... As far as an information booth is concerned, RFTA would temporarily install either a small trailer or wooden structure either on Durant Street or Mill Street to serve as a Customer Information Center. ...

As part of the Precise Plan Submission the applicant shall provide a detailed analysis of the functional bus requirements at Rubey Park including an analysis of pedestrian queuing and bus staging. It is recommended that bus storage areas be reduced if functionally possible and eliminated at a future time when parking is available at an alternate location ( it should be noted that the applicant has already responded to this recommendation as shown in attachment 2A). 6. RFTA shall prepare a proposal in the Precise Plan for mall extensions to assist the city in budget process. 7. RFTA shall work cooperatively with the City of Aspen to complete the mall extensions this summer and fall. 8. In preparing the Precise Plan, the applicant shall meet with the Parks Department and reach a mutual agreement regarding the compatibility of trees and buses in the bus staCking area. The Precise Plan Submission shall reflect the mutual understanding of the Parks Depart- ment and the applicant. 9. The applicant will address snow removal in detail in the Precise Plan. 10. The applicant shall prepare a Precise Plan for drainage to satisfaction of city Engineer. 11. The applicant will meet with the Electric Department to address metering, secondary wiring and trenching as noted within Attachment 8. The Precise Plan Submission shall address these issues to the satisfaction of the Electric Department. 12. The applicant will meet with the Engineering Department to discuss their requirements for curb improvements and reflect those requirements in the Precise Plan Submis- sion. 13. The applicant will be required to construct curbs with handicap ramps. 14. Lighting shall be consistent wi th the rest of the commercial core and approved by the city Engineer. 15. All utilities will be shown on the site survey as part of the Precise Plan Submission. 16. A detailed parking plan shall be submitted as part of the Precise Plan. 2 ,-. ,-. 17. The applicant will prepare a proposal for a sidewalk on north side of the alley consisting of rolled mall bricks and curb. The proposal will include cost estimates. REFERRAL AGENCY COMMENTS 1) Engineering Department - The city Engineering Depart- ment has commented regarding the following four issues (see attachment 10 for Engineering referral memoran- dum) : o The sub-surface soils under Rubey Park and the alley north of Rubey Park have a high clay content which become sponge-like when wet. Due to the poor subsurface RFTA and the city have had to overlay and rebuild portions of the parking lot and alley almost every other year. To remedy this situation, the asphalt and subsurface soils should be removed and refilled with road base and then re-paved. Although the excavation and site preparation is expensive, the road base recon- struction should take place simultaneously with the reconstruction of Rubey Park. o The Engineering Department approves of the Rubey Park drainage plan which is depicted in attachment 6 with one recommended change. The applicant, Parks Department and Engineering Department have met to determine a way to alleviate the drainage problem by the Galena and Mill street Malls. The two agencies and the applicant have agreed that the applicant will install an underground storm sewer line on the north side of Rubey Park to collect storm water before it crosses the alley and ices up during the winter. o The lighting standards must be single, not double, to match the standards in the downtown area. o It is recommended that the applicant try to increase parking on the site during the off-season and when the ski buses are not stored on the site. It is suggested that the planters depicted in attachment 5 be either reduced in size or removed. 2) city Attorney - The City Attorney has commented that the use of streets and public right-of-ways should be authorized by the city council (see attachment 11). city Electric Department - The Rubey Park plan does not pose any special problems for the Electric Department 3) 3 r- .,-." which can not be resolved during the construction process (see attachment 12). 4) City Water Department - Planting and landscaping must not interfere with the existing fire hydrant. In the event that there is a conflict, the developer must pay for the expense associated with relocating the fire hydrant (see attachment 13). 5) Parks Department - The parks Department has offered the following four comments: o The sidewalk on the north side of the alley should be at least 6 feet wide to accommodate the snow sweeping machine. o Bill Ness is very concerned about the proposed drainage plan because it does not alleviate icing conditions on the Galena street Mall and an icing problem in front of McDonalds on the Mill street Mall. The Staff has met with the applicant and we have agreed on a solution to the problem which is addressed above under the Engineering Department referral comments. o The application does not specify who will maintain the landscaping and pedestrian areas in Rubey Park during the non-snow seasons. Prior to considera- tion of the Precise plan by the City council, the issue of site maintenance needs to be addressed. o The application does not address who will be responsible for snow removal in the pedestrian areas during the ski season. The Parks Department is not prepared to remove snow from the pedestrian areas given the current site configuration. Bill Ness has commented that if the Parks Department is going to remove the snow the site should be designed to accommodate a snow sweeping machine. ISSUES AND CONCERNS: The following staff review is based on the review criteria for SPA review plans pursuant to Section 24-7.7 of the Municipal Code. 1. NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY Criteria - "Whether the proposal is compatible with neigh- boring developments in terms of use, density, height, bulk, open space landscaping and other site and architectural design features" (24-7.7 (a)(1)) . Review Since the Conceptual review the architectural 4 ~cJu..c."IO " "Y\ b....... s,........':! ~e..J.\.A.t.Tt"" ~ V\ .pur"""6 2. ;:, '-'-l'vor.,. SerVl c..e.<;. ottc.o-!r 3. "'I II L \" ," ,\~'--'iJ; . ~" ,. /""'. , ,-. design of the proposal has been altered. The proposed clocktower has been removed due to budget constraints and the clock is now proposed for the top of the bus depot building (see attachment 9). The Planning Office considers the new location of the clock to be superior to the original design. It is the intention of the applicant to transplant all of the existing landscaping on the site. Hopefully, very few of the existing trees will be lost. The Parks Departments concern about the suitability of the planters on the site for landscaping has been alleviated. Bus storage on the site has been significantly reduced from eleven buses to just five buses and on-site parking has been reduced from 21 spaces at Conceptual Plan stage to 12 parking spaces in this submission. In summary the Planing Office believes that the proposed SPA plan is compatible with the neighborhood and an improvement from the Conceptual Plan. SUPPORT SERVICES Criteria - "Whether sufficient utilities and roads exist to service the intended development" (24-7.7(a) (2)). Review - Comments from the referral agencies indicate that adequate water, sewer and road capacity exist to serve the development. Specific comments have been made regarding the subsurface soil conditions on the site and a sidewalk in the alley north of Rubey Park. These issues are addressed in the following sections. NATURAL SITE FEATURES criteria - "Whether the parcel is suitable for the intended development, considering the slope, ground instability and the possibility of mud flow, rock flow, rock falls, avalanc- he dangers and flood hazards (24-7.7(a)(3))." Review - with the exception of the problem of subsurface soils referenced in the City Engineer's referral comments, environmental hazards are not of great concern on this site. However the condition of the subsurface soils is a major concern to the Precise Plan review. The City Engineer has indicated that unless the existing soil on the site is completely excavated and replaced with road base, the asphalt on the site and the alley will not withstand the loads from the buses on the site without resurfacing every other year. The Planning Office con~;ders bi-annual resurfacing to be an una impact on adjacent proper J.es as we as a waste of RUblic monies. It is recommended that the applicant submit an Engineers report regarding the sUb-surface at RUbey Park and a proposal to 5 ,,-, "-,, stabilize soil conditions prior to consideration of this application by the city council. 4 . SITE PLANNING/SITE DESIGN criteria - "Whether the applicant has creatively employed land planning techniques such as setbacks, clustering, screening, buffering and architectural design to preserve significant view planes, avoid adverse environmental impacts and provide open space, trails and similar amenities for the users of the project and the public at large (24-7.7(a)(4)). Review The application is generally satisfactory with respect to the site design. The site is to be heavily landscaped and will function well in serving mass transit needs. As part of the Precise Plan submission the City council requested that the applicant address in detail each of the following specific areas. a) \- Do1:l, S~~::?~ ~O'?f (j 0 b) D"""';' ,,'\ \ tN\v.'v' \,,,c..'<\.> ,,\- -< -,\~\'lr 0"/ Ski and Boot storage - Presently, there is not any space at Rubey Park devoted to locker storage. The Precise Plan calls for an increase in locker storage from the 24 lineal feet proposed at the Conceptual Plan stage to 27 lineal feet. It is the opinion of the Planning Office that the locker storage on the site is insufficient and should be expanded. We continue to feel that Rubey Park should provide a convem,em: and ~dle place for Snowmass Village based skiers to store their skiing equipment while they shop, drink or eat dinner in Aspen after skiing. It is not clear from the application how many storage lockers will be provided and how many skis may be stored on the site. The provision of adequate ski and boot storage at a bus terminal is a basic resort amenity that should be provided to Aspen guests. It is recommended that locker storage be further addressed prior to consideration of this application by the City Council. It is essential that provisions be made for ski storage as well as providing small lockers. Paving Materials It is proposed that the entire transit plaza be paved in four foot bands of mall bricks. The remaining paved area will consist of concrete which will be colored to compliment the mall bricks. It is the Planning Office opinion that the entire paved area should be done in mall bricks and the concrete paving should be eliminated. As mentioned earlier, we view the Rubey Park facility as both the entrance to and extension of the downtown mall.

It is recommended that all of the paved pedestrian areas be comprised of mall bricks. :eedestflan Queuing - The City Council requested that the applicant address pedestrian queuing in detail as part of the Precise Plan. Bus queuing is a considera- tion during the skiing season for the Snowmass ski buses. Attachment 3 depicts a 40'x40' queuing plan for the Snowmass ski buses. The queuing area will be capable of accommodating 250 people. It is proposed that the queuing areas be delineated by removable sleeved pipe fence sections. It is the intent of RFTA to remOve the queuing pipes when they are not needed. Based upon our review of the queuing plan it appears to be more than adequate. Mall Extensions It has been suggested that RFTA extend the Galena and Mill street Mall approximately 100 feet to Durant street. RFTA contends that the Mall extensions are beyond their budget and can not be accomplished. City council requested that RFTA estimate the cost of the Mall extension as part of the Precise Plan submission to assist the City of Aspen in the Capital budget process. RFTA estimates that excludina th" .-.n"T Tn,.. "'<"tpd rit:l'J mall arieks it: will cn",'" "'pp,..oxi maT" 1 y $5g,000 to extend the pedestrian m~ll~ ta 6ULdnt street. As previously mentioned in staff reviews the pedestrian link between Rubey Park and the Aspen commercial core via the malls to be vital to the community. It is our belief that the $50 0 . e to nn The all - n ca ital cost that will pay for itself oyer time from 1ncreased sevent penney sales tax revenues which are likely to result from mall exten- sions that draw Rubey Park pedestrians to the com- mercial core. Likewise mall extensions from the commercial core to the transit depot will help to increase bus ridership. In our review of Aspen Mountain Lodge PUD Agreement for Council, we found that the lodge developers had agreed to contribute $25,000 toward a "study" of Rubey Park improvements. We suggest that the City call for this money immediately, and that it be used to fund 1/2 of mall extensions, with other 1/2 matched by RFTA or City. (see Attachment 14) It is the Staff recommendation that the Galena and Mill street Mall extensions occur simultaneously with the 7 e) ,'t- (,~\f)1Yv:' ) fJ: 'J":-I C...'"" ,~ ~ f) ffA U!fJ cJ0- ("-. ~ Rubey Park construction. By concentrating construction activity within one building season the impacts on the surrounding residential and commercial areas will be minimized. sidewalk At the City council meeting it became evident that a sidewalk with a rolled curb is needed on the north side of the alley contiguous with the transi t center. Presently, pedestrians traverse the alley to get to either mall and mix with automobile and bus traffic in the alley. This particular alley has more pedestrian and vehicular traffic than any alley in the City and functions more as a street than an alley. As with other off-site improvements, RFTA has indicated that they do not have the budget to make the improve- ments in the alley. It is anticipated that the side walk will cost approximately $4,500 exclud~ng the cost of the mall pavers. The Staff considers the sidewalk to be an essential off-site improvement which is necessary for the safety of pedestrians using the RUbey Park terminal. Like the malls it is recommended that the sidewalk be construc- ted simultaneously with the Rubey Park construction to avoid incrementalizing impacts on the neighborhood. Bill Ness of the Parks Department has indicated in his referal comments that the sidewalk should be at least six feet wide to enable the Parks Department to sweep the side wall in the winter with the snow sweeping machine. Restroom Facilities - The city Council required the applicant to add additional restroom facilities. The Precise Plan shows three toilets within each of the restroom facilities (see attachment 8). This repre- sents an increase of one toilet in each restroom from the conceptual plan submission. It should be noted that the restrooms will serve the needs of transit users and the public at large. This improvement is consistent with the code language referenced above. 5. MASTER PLAN Criteria - " Whether the proposal is in compliance with the Aspen Area General Plan (24-7.7(a)(5)). Review - The Aspen Area General Plan is in the process of being revised. The Aspen Area Comprehensive Plan: Transpor- tation Element addresses Rubey Park. The Element calls for Rubey Park to serve as the City of Aspen's primary transit 8 r- ,-., center. The Plan also anticipates the loss of parking spaces at Rubey Park which is associated with the proposed improvements. 6. EXPENDITURE OF PUBLIC FUNDS Criteria - Whether the development will require the expendi- ture of excessive public funds to provide services and facilities for the site or surrounding neighborhood (Section 24-3.7(a) (6}). Review - Since the Rubey Park improvement plan is a public project this criteria is not as relevant as it would be to a private sector land use application. Nevertheless, it is worthwhile to analyze whether or not additional public expendi tures will need to be spent as a resul t of the proposed project. Based upon our review, the Planning Office had identified capital improvements such as mall extensions and sidewalk construction which should be made in association with the Rubey Park improvements. These improvements will result in significant public benefits and should be coordinated by the City and RFTA to occur simul- taneously to minimize disruption of the neighborhood. Additionally, the comments from the City Engineer regarding sUb-surface conditions on-site and in the alley indicate that if RFTA does not prepare the site properly and the City does not reconstruct the alley, the public sector will incur significant costs bi-annually patching and re-surfacing asphalt. 7.

Prior to City Council review of the plan, the applicant should present a proposal for snow removal in the pedestrian areas to the planning Office. Interim operations Plan - The applicant proposes using Durant Street in front of Wagner Park for the interim bus station. The plan would require posting "no parking" signs on the north side of Durant Street. RFTA proposes installing a temporary trailer or wooden structure on Durant or Mill Streets as a temporary information booth. The Planning Office has no objections to the interim operation plan with the exception of the information P rC>\.;""....'1 9 r-.. ".-", booth. We consider trailers unsightly and recommend that a be erected. in the downtown to be temporary wood structure SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION Based upon our review of the Rubey Park Precise Plan it is the Planning Office opinion that the proposal includes significant inadequacies and opportunities. RFTA and city of Aspen have demonstrated a lack of coordination in planning on and off-site improvements. Likewise, RFTA has failed to address a very significant issue with respect to soil conditions on the site. The project should not be initiated until the sub-soils and paving issue is resolved and on and off-site public sector capital improvements are coordinated by the City and RFTA. The re-development of Rubey Park presents a major opportunity for RFTA and the City of Aspen to coordinate capital improvements so that the mall is extended, a sidewalk is constructed on the north side of the alley and the alley is reconstructed simultaneously with the Rubey Park re-development. It is our opinion that it is unfair to residential and commercial neighbors to stagger these improvements so that construction impacts occur twice. The $25,000 fee which the Aspen Mountain Lodge has committed should be called in and matched by the city so that all construction at Rubey Park and in the vicinity occurs at once. l The Planning Office recommends approval of the Rubey Park Precise Plan SPA contingent upon an agreement between RFTA and the City of Aspen that on-site and off-site improvements are made simul- taneously and subject to the following conditions. 1) Prior to consideration of the Rubey Park by City Council, the applicant shall following concerns.

The subsurface soils on which Rubey Park is built have a high clay content and become sponge-like when wet. Due to this, the City and RFTA have to overlay and rebuild portions of the parking lot and adjacent alley almost every other year. To remedy this situation, the asphalt and subsurface soil would have to be removed, this could mean an excavation of several feet, the area would have to be filled with roadbase and re-paved. This treatment would cost tens of thousands of dollars. However, the ideal time to reconstruct this area is simultaneous with the construction of Rubey Park. 2. We approve of the drainage plans for the Rubey Park site. However, we would like the runoff that leaves the site to flow underground to the storm sewer system on the Mill Street Mall. This would prevent icing on the alley flow line. 3. The lighting standards must be single, not double, to match the standards in the downtown area. 4. We recommend that the site try to accommodate more than 12 public parking, spaces for the summer and off seasons. If the planters in the parking area were removed or reduced in size, more cars could be accommodated. ...,"~ f"""", ,-.., PEN 130 asp reet 611 II~r[~ @ [~t u '\;~n~,",!~,~,\ \ iF '-'--",ul, I i\\ i JUL 2 9 1987 ; U ul -.Jr.:/' MEMORANDUM DATE: July 29, 1987 TO: Glenn Horn, planning Office / FROM: city Attorney RE: Rubey Park SPA Precise Plan Our only comment at this time is that use of streets and public rights-of-way should be authorized by the City Council.
