HEHORANDUH TO: overlay Zone District Sub-Committee FROM: Kim Johnson, Planner RE: Moore Residence, N. Spring St. DATE: April 5, 1995 ======== ===--==----============================= SUHNARY: This project is located in the Smuggler neighborhood, therefore both the general guidelines (Chapter 1 of the "Neighborhood Character Guidelines") and the specific guidelines for Smuggler (Chapter 4) will be applied. The applicant requests approval for a new residence. The proposed FAR for this 12,632 sq. ft. lot is 4,150 sq. ft., plus a 250 s.f. FAR bonus because of an Accessory Dwelling Unit. Allowable FAR by the underlying zoning is 4,150 s.t. The special review process is mandatory but compliance with any Committee findings is voluntary as the parcel is greater than 9,000 s.f. APPLICANT: Gary and Debra Moore LOCATION: North Spring Street, Oklahoma Flats (Lot 1 and 2 and south 1/2 of Lot 3, Block 1, Oklahoma Flats Addition). Theparcel is in the bend of the Roaring Fork River, across the river from the start of the "kayak course" in the Rio Grande Park area. STAPF COMMENTS: Please refer to the application for the complete representation of the proposal. Planning staff finds that the garage and entryway elements of the proposed structure are not sympathetic to the characteristic mass and scale of most of the residences in this neighborhood. It is not in substantial compliance with the several general and specific neighborhood guidelines. In addition to the Spring Street frontage, this parcel borders the Roaring Fork River and a major City park across the river. Thus, the rear of the site shall be considered in this review. This site will also be subject to a Stream Margin review and Conditional Use review for the ADU by the P&Z. At this point, it appears that the ADU exceeds the square footage maximum allowed by the land use regulations. Rather than discuss each individual review guideline, staff finds the following guidelines are pertinent to this proposal: .1 .- ~'-~. -'....~--~. ~..

As a less preferred alternative, the garage entry shou e moved to the side of the structure, although this would maintain the bulk on the street elevation. .13. Driveways.

Any additional parking apron dr1ve s be qrasscrete type of surface. RECOHHE1mATION: Recommendations from this review is advisory only. However, staff strongly recommends that the developer revise the design in the following manner: dO, 3, L/!j 1~1 13 2) Delete one garage bay. Detach the garage 6r relocate the garage doors to the side of the building. 2) Reduce the driveway width to a maximum of 18'. . Any additional parking apron adjacent to the driveway should be grasscrete . type paving. 3) Relocate the home's entrance so that it is visible and inviting from the front of the structure.

A curre1'",t cet'tificate ft'om Stewat't Title r1'",sura1'",ce Co. disclosing ownership etc... from attorney Tom Todd is attached as Exhibit 3. 4b. An 8 1/2"xl1" vicinity map locating the subject parcel within the City of Aspen is attached as Exhibit 4. 5. The property described above in #2 lies within an eclectic neighb,;:orhood with a varie.ty of architectut'al styles. This nei ghborhood cor,si ts .;:of old and new sing Ie fami ly homes, most of which contain Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU). Home sizes range from small (f'.lture developement parcels) to one of the largest houses located in the city limits. The existing topography of the neighborhood is mostly flat, surrounded by the river on one side (south and west) and a steep bank or. the north arld east bour,dry. Special features include the river and large cottonwood trees throughout. (Please see photographs attached to #7 Exhibit 5) 1 "....., ,-, 6. We are proposing to build a Single Family Dwelling with an attached, above grade, Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). This ADU will be used as interim housing for immediate family. The allowab- le FAR of 4,150sq' includes 700 sq' of an ADU, qualifying for the 250sq' FAR Bonus. This proposed developemer,t ce.mpl ies with the "Nei ghbot'hood Character Design Guidelines" in that: A) MASS 8< SCALE The building is designed in proportional segments that are connected and the eaves are low at setback perimeters on the north and east property boundries. The roof lines rise up to the main ridges which are located toward the center of the building envelope. The larger dormers/gable ends tend to face the views to the south and west. B) BUILDING FORM The unique curved river front lot creates an interesting building design which are common in the Oklahoma Flats area. We have a variety of roof forms; gable and shed. A unique stair tower creates a vertical compliment to the surrounding 50 to 100 foot tall Aspen and Cottonwood trees. The lot has dozens of these trees and the scale of them should help the proposed house to nestle into the site. Minimum trees will be removed as the majority are within proposed setbacks. Porch roofs define the entries for both the main house and the ADU. The recessed walls under these porches create broaken wall masses and add shadow 1 i nes. C) SITE PLAN To create more open space in the front yard, we kept the house away from the setback which provides additional area for landscaping and yard use. The primary entrance is within this space, making it fuctional and appealing to pedestrans, even though the lot is at the vary end of Spring Street, a "dead end". The garage is set back 40 feet from the Spring Street proterty 1 it",e, allowing a large tt'ee to remair, in the centet' e.f the frorli; yard with proposed driveway curving around it. Another huge (150 foot) Cottonwood will offset the proposed garage corner and ADU entry, thus shielding the.garages mass from Spring Stree. D) BUILDING MATERIALS External building materials will consist of river horizontal wood siding with vertical siding on Coppet' star,d i r,g seam roofs cover the shed de.t"mers. are on the 12/12 pitches. All materials are natural rock and stair towet'. We.od shi rIg les te. the area. E) ARCHITECTURAL FEATURES Pot'ches identify the primat'y em'Gt'ance and the ADU erltrar,ce, both oriented to the street. As shown in the elevations, there are a variety of windows and door shapes which are similar in scale to those in this neighborhood. ;:::. . ~ ~ 7.See attached site/landscape plan, floor plans, elevations, etc. Should you i nfot'mat ic,n, have and quest ic.ns ct' requi re please do not hesitate to call. al"Y additional You", '"uly, j 1:v ~~,L:e !~~""~ /lkJ GDM:dvd Attachments (5 Exhibits) ,., ", ,,-,\ E'>4'\ibi+ ~ ~ HOLLAND & HART AT1-o~NEYS AT l.A W , '.

You will note that there are some additional title exceptions relating to some "wild deeds" to the property from around the turn of the century. I believe most of the problems with these old conveyances relate to inadequacies in legal desoriptions. I will mail to you under separate cover copies of all of the title exceptions for your review.
