RE:
1590 and 1592 Silverking Drive - Residential Design Standards
Parcel Number: 2735-024-01-008
DATE:
December 13, 2006
SUMMARY:
1590 Silverking Dr. LLC, represented by Luis Menendez, has applied for a variance to the
Residential Design Standards to construct a new duplex at 1590 and 1592 Silverking Drive. The
proposed plans are attached as Exhibit "B".
Specifically, the requested variances include the following:
1. Driveway Cuts (26.410.040 C2d)
ApPLICANT:
1590 Silverking Dr. LLC. Represented by Luis Menendez
LOCATION:
1590 and 1592 Silverking Drive
ZONING:
R-15, Medium Density
REVIEW PROCEDURE:
The Community Development Director may approve, approve with conditions, or deny a
variance request from the residential design standards pursuant to Land Use Code Section
26.410.020(D), Variances.
STAFF COMMENTS:
The Applicant is requesting a Variance from the requirement that prohibits a driveway cut
from exceeding two (2) feet in depth in the front yard setback. The lot includes a 38% slope
from the street to the front yard setback, making it difficult to meet this standard. Given the
lot's topography, it is challenging to meet this standard while making a safe and functional
driveway. Further, adjacent lots have similar slopes and have created driveway cuts similar
to the one proposed for 1590 Silverking Drive. Staff finds this variance to be necessary for
reasons offaimess related to site-specific constraints and consistency with the character of the
area.

RECOMMENDA noN:
Staff finds that this application meets the applicable review standards for granting a variance
from the build'ng orientation residential design standard and recommends that the Community
Development Director approve this variance request.
ApPROVAL:
I hereby approve a variance request from the Driveway Cut requirement in the Residential
Desil'n Standards to allow for the construction of a duplex at 1590 and 1592 Silverking Drive, as
repres nted on the plans attached hereto as Exhibit "B",

EXHIBIT A: REVIEW CRITERIA & STAFF FINDINGS
The Community Development Director may grant variances from the Residential Design
Standards if the proposed application meets the following:
a) Provides an appropriate design or paUern of development considering the
context in which the development is proposed and purpose of the particular
standard, In evaluating the context as it is used in the criteria, the reviewing
board may consider the relationship of the proposed development with
adjacent structures, the immediate neighborhood seUing, or a broader vicinity
as the board feels is necessary to determine if the exception is warranted; or,
b) Be clearly necessary for reasons of fairness related to unusual site-specific
constraints.
The following are Staffs findings in regards to the variances being requested by the
Applicant.
Variance Requested
Drivewav Cut, (26,410,040 C2d)
When the floor of a garage or carport is
above or below the street level, the driveway
cut within the front yard setback shall not
exceed two (2) feet in depth, measured from
natural grade,

a) Provides an appropriate design or paUern of development considering the
context in which the development is proposed and purpose of the particular
standard, In evaluating the context as it is used in the criteria, the reviewing
board may consider the relationship of the proposed development with
adjacent structures, the immediate neighborhood seUing, or a broader vicinity
as the boardfeels is necessary to determine if the exception is warranted; or,
Staff Finding:
The proposed duplex sits on a lot that includes significant slopes, Other lots adjacent to
the lot in question also include significant slopes. These adjacent lots include driveway
cuts that exceed two (2) feet in the setback due to slopes. Staff finds that the proposed
driveway cut is consistent with other similarly situated lots in the area, Staff finds this
criterion to be met.
b) Be clearly necessary for reasons offairness related to unusual site-specific
constraints,
Staff Finding:
The lot has unique site-specific considerations because it slopes up approximately 38%
from the street to the front yard set back, Due to this significant slope, it is difficult to
design a driveway that is safe, functional, that also meets this Residential Design
Standard, Staff finds this criterion is met due to site specific constraints,

I, , APPLICANT has submitted to CITY an application for
L5Qo l'5"t'l..:f>1 '-\le.n... \>,l(., DU.l\l~
(hereinafter, THE PROJECT),
2, APPLICANT understands and agrees that City of Aspen Ordinance No, 57 (Series of
2000) establishes a fee structure for Land Use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a
condition precedent to a determination of application completeness.
3, APPLICANT and CITY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed
project, it is not possible at this time to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the
application, APPLICANT and CITY further agree that it is in the interest of the parties that APPLICANT
make payment of an initial deposit and to thereafter permit additional costs to be billed to APPLICANT on
a monthly basis, APPLICANT agrees additional costs may accrue following their hearings and/or
approvals, APPLICANT agrees he will be benefited by retaining greater cash liquidity and will make
additional payments upon notification by the CITY when they are necessary as costs are incurred, CITY
agrees it will be benefited through the greater certainty of recovering its full costs to process
APPLICANT'S application,
4, CITY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for CITY staff to complete
processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or City Council to enable the
Planning Commission and/or City Council to make legally required findings for project consideration,
unless current billings are paid in full prior to decision,
5, Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the CITY's waiver of its right to
collect full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay an initial
deposit in the amount of$ eo"lf;GlI which is for ~ ~ hours of Community Development staff
time, and if actual recorded costs exceed the initial deposit, APPLICANT shall pay additional monthly
billings to CITY to reimburse the CITY for the processing of the application mentioned above, including
post approval review at a rate of $220,00 per planner hour over the initial deposit. Such periodic payments
shall be made within 30 days of the billing date, APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such
accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing, and in no case will building permits be issued
until all costs associated with case processing have been paid. ~

Re: 1590 & 1592 Silverking Drive
Dear Mr. Grange,
Per our discussion, the attached Land Use Application requests exemption from
Residential Design Standards Section 26.410,040 C2d "When the floor of a garage or
carport is above or below the street level, the driveway cut within the front yard setback
shall not exceed two (2) feet in depth, measured from natural grade,"
The subject lot is a hillside lot on the north side of Silverking Drive, The existing grade
slopes up from the street at approximately 38% (between the edge of street paving and
the front yard setback), The existing topography makes it impossible to cut a safe and
functional driveway from the street to the front yard setback without exceeding the 2 foot
limit set by Section 26.410,040 C2d,
We kindly request exemption from the aforementioned Design Standard due to the
hardship presented by the existing topography, As illustrated on the attached
photographs, all of the neighboring lots with similar slopes have cut more than 2 feet in
the front yard setback for the driveways,
Please contact me with any questions,
?
