Ms. Hoffmann:
As per our telephone conversation regarding the Electrical
facilities for the new addition at Ellie's and the projected load
of 400-500 Amps 3 phase 120/208, there are two (2) alt;ernatives.
The owner can either buy a 150 KVA 3 phase Pad mount 'transformer
per our specifications and set it ~n his property or he can pay
the difference of upgrading the existing Pad mount transformer at
the Miners building from 150 KVA 3 phase to 300 KVA 3 phase.
(Cost not determined at this time.)
The owner will also be required to furnish a C.T. can
installed in an appropriate place for metering purposes on the
owners building in an area accessible to City of Aspen electric
personnel and off the alley right of way. And also all costs
incurred for connectio,ns, wire, trenching and condui t to the
existing transformer location behind the Mirrers Building.
Any questions in regards to this project can be directed to
me. Don Gilbert, Electric Superintendent, 925-2020,
Thank you,

FROM:
Glenn Horn, Assistant Planning Director
DATE:
Elli of Aspen Trash Area Special Review
April 23, 1987
RE:
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
We have received an application from the Can-Am Aspen Development
Company requesting a reduction in the required trash area for the
recently approved expansion of Elli of Aspen. The expansion was
approved in accordance with section 24-11.2 (b) of the municpal
code which permits expansions of historically designated structu-
res. Elli of Aspen is located at the corner of Mill and Main
Streets and is zoned CC. The trash area is located on the south
side of the building on the alley. According to section 24-3.7
(h) (4) of the land use code the applicant is required to have 30
feet parelle1 to the alley as a trash area in order to service
the proposed floor area of 12,130 square feet. A reduction to 25
feet is being requested.
The land use code requires a minimun length of 20 feet parellel
to the alley for the first 6,000 feet of floor area and 5
additional feet for each incremental additon of 6,000 square feet
of floor area. Based upon this formula the trash area must be
increased from 25 feet to 30 feet just to serve 130 feet of floor
area.
section 24-3.5 of the land
special review criteria to
commission in reviewing trash
use code establishes the folowing
assist the Planning and Zoning
area reduction requests.
1. " The adequacy of trash vehicle access to site." Our review of
the proposed site plan indicates that there will be adequate
access to the trash area.
2. " The amount of trash which might be expected to be generated
given the nature of the proposed uses of the building and
total square footage of the building." The analysis submitt-
ed by the applicant shows that the proposed uses can be
accommodated by the proposed trash area.
3. "Any unique measures provided for enclosing trash bins and
making them easily movable by trash personnel. "Although
nothing unique is being done to improve the trash area,the
handling of the trash dumpsters by trash personnel can be
accommodated given the proposed improvements to the alley
and trash area.
~
,.-
4. "Any prov1s1ons for trash compaction which would be used by
the development and potentially by other land uses on the
block." Trash compaction is not economical for an operati-
on of this size.
5. "The comments of Aspen trash and city Engineering personnel
which shall be solicited by the Planning Office prior to
scheduling before the Planning and Zoning commission." The
City Engineer has commented in support of the trash area
reduction.
6. "Adequacy of area for public utility placement and mainten-
ance." The proposed space will be more than adequate for
the buildings utility placement and maintenance.
The City Engineering Department has reviewed the applicant's
request based upon the criteria cited above and the information
presented by the applicant in the attached letter. Elyse Elliot
comments in her April 22, memorandum that she has no problem with
the requested trash area reduction to 25 feet parellel to the
alley. Additionally, Elyse states that the Engineering Department
would even consider further reductions if the proposed electric
transformer is not required.
Based upon the Planning Offices's review of the request and the
comments from the Engineering Department, it is recommended that
the Planning and Zoning commission approve the applicants request
to reduce their proposed trash area parellel to the alley from 30
feet to 25 feet in accordance with section 24-3.5 of the land use
code.

Re:
El1i's of Aspen - Special Review for Trash Reduction
===============================================================
The engineering Department has no problem with the applicant's
request to reduce the trash and utility area's length from 30' to
25'. This area will adequately house three 2-yard dumpsters and
a 6' long utility area. We would consider further reducing the
utility area size if a transformer is not required.

Re: Special Review Application/Elli of Aspen Trash Area
Reduction
Dear Steve:
Please consider this letter an application for special
review approval pursuant to Section 24-3.5(b) of the
Municipal Code to reduce the trash and utility access area
requirement for the proposed expansion of the Elli of
Aspen building, an existing commercial structure located
in the Commercial Core zone district. The owner of the
property and Applicant is Can-Am Aspen Development, Inc.
Pursuant to Section 24-3.7(h)(4), a minimum trash and
utility area of twenty (20) feet by ten (10) feet is
required for up to six thousand (6,000) square feet of
building floor area, with an additional five (5) feet of
length required for each building addition of six thousand
(6,000) square feet or less. As the following table
indicates, the external floor area of the proposed
expansion is approximately 12,130 square feet, sub-
stantially below the approximately 13,500 square feet
allowed under existing zoning.

Applying the above criteria, the building would require a
trash and utility access area thirty (30) feet long (i.e.,
twenty (20) feet for the building's first 6,000 square
feet of floor area, five (5) feet for the second 6,000
square feet, and an additional five (5) feet for the
building's remaining 130 square feet. However, based on
actual trash generation calculations and our experience
with similar commercial structures, we believe that a
twenty-five (25) foot by ten (10) foot trash and utility
access area will be more than adequate for a building of
this size.
With respect to the specific review requirements of
Section 24-3.5(b), the following comments are provided in
support of the Applicant's request for a reduction in the
size of the building's required trash and utility access

2. The principal use for the building is an-
ticipated to be retail commercial. It is pos-
sible, however, that a portion of the building's
second floor may be leased for office and/or
restaurant purposes. Based on BFI Waste
systems' national standard of one (1) cubic yard
of trash per 2,500 square feet of commercial
floor area per day, the proposed building would
generate approximately four (4) cubic yards of
trash each day, assuming all leasable floor area
were devoted to retail purposes. In the event a
portion of the second floor were leased for
office purposes, the daily volume would be
considerably less, as the national standard for
office uses is one (1) cubic yard per 10,000
square feet of floor area. Similarly, if a
portion of the second floor were utilized for a
restaurant (maximum of 3,000 sq. ft.) the
building's daily trash generation might be
expected to increase. In no instance, however,

would totaJ. trash generation be expected to
exceed five (5) to six (6) cubic yards per day.
In order to accommodate this volume, approxi-
mately two (2) to three (3) two cubic yard
dumpsters (the largest dumpster that can be
conveniently handled during the winter months)
would be required. Assuming that the average
two cubic yard dumpster measures approximately
four (4) by seven (7) feet, three (3) such
dumpsters could easily be placed within the
building's twenty-five (25) foot by ten (10)
foot trash area while still maintaining adequate
space for utility needs. It should be noted,
however, that the above standards are general in
nature and, therefore, not necessarily indica-
tive of commercial trash generation in the City
of Aspen. For example, the Mill Street Plaza
building, which contains approximately 27,000
square feet of commercial area (including three
restaurants), requires only three (3) dumpsters
to adequately handle its trash requirements.
3. The building's trash and utility access area
will be enclosed on three sides, covered, and
contain a concrete floor. In addition, the area
reserved for dumpster storage will be screened
from the alley via a sliding overhead door,
thereby significantly improving the alley's
visual appearance. Given the size of the
dumpsters to be used (i.e., two cubic yard), the
spaciousness of the at-grade trash area, and the
paved alley surface, dumpster handling by
collection personnel should pose no significant
problems.
4. Trash compaction is neither economically viable
nor practical for a commercial structure of this
size. As discussed above, ample area exists for
trash receptacles which can be conveniently
accessed by collection vehicles.
5. Both BFI and the City's Engineering Department
have previously supported similar requests for
trash area reductions. For example, the Hunter

Plaza Building received P&Z approval for an
identical reduction, from thirty (30) feet to
twenty-five (25) feet. For purposes of com-
parison, the Hunter Plaza Building's external
floor area was approximately 12,800 square feet
while its net leasable floor area was approx-
imately 11,300 square feet, both significantly
greater than Elli of Aspen.
6. The proposed space will be more than adequate
for the building's utility placement and main-
tenance requirements (i.e., electric panels,
meters, telephone pedestal, etc.).
In summary, a reduction of Elli of Aspen's trash and
utility access area requirement would appear to be ap-
propriate based on the above comments. The Applicant,
therefore, respectfully requests special review approval
to reduce the building's trash area from thirty (30) feet
to twenty-five (25) feet as illustrated on the attached
drawing.
Should you have any questions regarding our application,
or if we can be of any further assistance, please do not
hesitate to give me a call. As the Applicant wishes to
begin construction this Spring, any assistance you might
be able to provide in expediting our application's review
would be sincerely appreciated.
