The fire stand pipe system may be installed in the same trench as the 6" water line and the domestic water lines provided that the line is at least 18" below the surface and at 1eas"c 2 feet adjacent to the water lines. This line should have a drainage system located at the "Y" where fire truck connections can be made to insure total drainage of the dry.,system to pro'cect from freezing. This would have a curb box valve below frost dep'ch which would be used to drain the line. 3. Excavation on this site with machine equipment would take place only within the 20 foot easement for the 6" water line. 4. In order to insure adequate soil absorption, roof drains shall be installed and drain underneath the exposed section of each house. 5. 'Durant '73 houses will be ,constructed on concrete piers and will require no excavating equipment that would damage the exiting vegeta- tion. 6.

In paragraph 5, Chen & Associates letter dated May 22, 1973, Chen & Associates believe it is safe to construct the proposed units in areas where the general surface slope is less than 50%. Construction on steeper slopes would require a more detailed analysis. Care should be taken during construction to minimize cuts and to provide surface drainage along noted drainage ways. ;-, ,~ S P E C I F I CAT ION S For Durant Houses - 1973 -2- 9.

Hibberd, Subdivision Exemption , "} r , I I 1 I . ! I ! , City Eng.ineer Ellis outlined his recommendations on this subdivision which included comments by the Fire Chief. Mr. Ellis outlined the following points: The site con- ditions can be overcome but not without detrimental af- fects to a substantial portion of the site asa whole. No construction should be allowed on slopes that are greater than 50%. Footers' shall be at a minimum of 6'. Great amoun't of vegetation will be destroyed causing erosion and drainage problems. A new 6" water main will be required to adequately serve these sites which will require crossing 100% grade. Mr. Ellis gave the following recommendations: (1) Wright and McLaughlin Engineers be retained to make specific recommendations for drainage and storm water retention for units proposed for 1973; (2) Chen and Associates should perform a site inspection of the excavations dur- ing construction to determine if the soil is stable. (3) All cut and'fill areas should be controlled with either concrete retaining walls or timber cribbing: (4') A 6" ductile fire main be extended from the City's 12" main on Li.ttle Nell and a 6" fire hydrant be in:-, stalled at the ground level of the existing units. A 20' easement be granted to the City for maintenance, also a fire hydrant at top of site. (5) A system of stand pipes and hose cabinets be installed as speci- fied by the Fire Chief and City Engineer: (6) All disturbed areas shall be revegetated with fast growing trees, shrubs snd grass as per a landscaping plan: (7) Developer shall dedicate the existing ski trail below proposed site. Dedication should be by metes and bounds description; 18) A detailed site plan be submitteC: for the 1973 units showing existing structural locations, proposed sites, utility and service plan, plus items mentioned ,above: (9) Developer and home owners associa- tion shall agree to maintain private fire protection system; (10) Developer and home owners association shall agree to join in future improvement districts: (11) Developer shall provide bond for the cost of completing all items listed ~bove. Commission requested the technical requirements be worked out with the City Engineer and Fire Chief. Commission stated their main concerns were drainage and steepness of slope. Question even if this project can bE accomplished. ~ Mr. Ellis stated that Wright McLaughlin drainage report pstateS -that historically run off in this area is within normal range because of the growth. When development ~ 1""'\ ./ RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves f'ORMllI C.r.HOECKELe.B.&L.Co. Regular Meeting Aspen Planning & Zoning June 1'1, 1973 occurs, they request only 10' around each site be dis- turbed, Just that amount of disturbance will increase the run off by 200%. It is Questionable if re-vege- tation can take place to take care of the drainage. Mr. HibBerd stated he would excavate with very small equipment and in some areas would excavate by hand. Mr. Hibberd also presented a $4,000 bond to cover the replanting. Mr. Hibberd also stated he would be willing to redesign his plans to eliminate the foundations and put the structures on columns. Vice Chairman Gillis recommend only one unit be allowed this year to see what the impacts to the land are. Mr. Hibberd stated he would commit to having no excavation equipment on de site. Commission request Mr. Hibberd work out all technical requirements with the City Engineer and Fire Chief and their report be in writing. Further Mr. Hibberd either redesign the structures (3) sites) with no excavation or Commission will con- sider only 1 site for 1973 with excavation. View Planes Vice Chairman Gillis opened the public hearing on view plane from the Hotel Jerome and from Rubey Park. Assistant Planner Wooden reviewed with the Commission and citizens maps showing the view to be retained from the Hotel Jerome frontage on Main of Aspen Mountain and Shadow Mountain. Slides of the view were shown es- tablishing the height of buildings in the view plane of 20'. Feel this is a legitimate request because it does start on public right-of-way; consideration is now under way of designating the Hotel Jerome as a his- toric site; and the Hotel Jerome plays a major part as relates to meeting of people. Resolution approving the view plane and recommending same to Council was submitted. i I J I i 1 Mr. Russ Pielstick stated he was against this proposal, presently the architect on the proposed building for the vacant lot across the street. By the time this proposal was heard ,of, the design of the project was con~lete and had met with the Building Inspector and met all code requirements. Mr. Pielstrick showed to the Commis- sion the plans of the building and what the view plane does to the project. Stated this creates a zoning en- velope, view of the back of the Opera House and further feel the mountains are a part of the heritage of the City and should be enjoyed by all by view corridors from the mall, Chamber of Commerce steps, Paepcke Park, etc. i[::Gi!l.~tffi~~~~~~~~}fi~iii;P~~~~'~*~~ m~~17~~~~~~ff:N~~Ji~i~~' " f"""",. ,.....,., ~ RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves "OR~. 10 C.

Rubey Park View Plane Mr. Wooden pointed out the points from which the view of Aspen Mountain and Independence Pass were estab- ltshed. Height of buildings within the view plane of Aspen Mountain would be 25' allowed and of Independence Pass ranging from lq' to 30'. Slides and maps were reviewed.

Mr. Bartel explained as relates to the vegetation, erosion, etc. ,the Commission would have to review the site when weather permits. Also Mr.v Hibberd's development falls under the new definition of a subdivision which is condominiums and he must follow the subdivision procedures. Planning and Zoning will also require plat phases, applicants position of construction methods to best preserve the site, preliminary plat and geological report. Public Hearing-Historic Preservation Committee was present. Mr. David Finholm presented the findings of the HPC: 1) "Because the Stallard House meets the standards and criteria as outlined in the City Zoning Code for designation as an H-Historic Overlay District, (2) because it has significant importance both historically and architecurally as one, of the few remaining examples of fine.. Victorian architecture, and (3) because it h8s both current and future importance as a his- torical museum, HPC recommends that public hear- ings be held to consider an H-Historic Overlay District'zon~ for Lots A-G & K-S and portions of the alley of Block 23 now zoned R-6 residential."

Request states as follows: :_ "setback regulation tequires 25' setback from front property line, present 1 plot'plan is within this setback, however it cannot be setback 25' from the easements on front property line without creating an extreme hardship to the owner and excessive excavation into the existing hillside. Request to have a setback of 15' from the edge of the existing road." I \ I I Mr. Starodoj stated he ownes the property on both sides of the road. Road easement and pedestrian right of way and utility easement are 40'. This is. a private road under the subdivision regulations. Building Inspector felt that at sometime the City might want to widen the road to the 40' that is why it was felt the house should be setback 25'. Mr. Meyring pointed out under the zoning ordinance the structure has to set back 25' from the ease- ment. Mr. Starodoj stated he interpreted the ordinance to mean from the eenter line of the road. Further stated that in his deed there is a restric- tion that the hill would not be excavated. Also wish to save the trees which are now existing. . Board reviewed the plot plan. From review it was determinded a 7' variance is all that would be required, not 15'. Board discussed 5' being sufficient for the architect to work with. 1 Paterson moved that we grant Robert Starodoj a 5' varisnce from the easement line which would be equal to 40' from the center line of the easement and the Board does not feel there would be any adverse affect on the neighborhood property that way and also grant the variance to protect the existing trees and minimize excavation of the hill.

Mr. Hibberd stated he will meet with the Building In- spector and fire chief to go through the entire project and wlll provide all the fire fighting facilities within the correct distance of all houses and hydrants. Equipment will be stored in sheds next to the hydrants. Access can be from the old county road at the top of the project.

Job No. 9413 Mr, Fred Hibberd Hibberd Construction Company 1127 Race Street Denver, Colorado 80206 Dear Mr. Hibberd: In continuation of our Jetter of May 22, 1973, we are providing our opinion on t.he proposed construction. Based on our continued inspection and observations at this site and further consideration of the data we have previously collected, we bel ieve the slope underlying this development is stable. The material comprising .the subsoi 15 consrsts of vel~Y granular material, and the water table is well below the surrace or bedrock and appears to be ralrly stable, In a dry condition, this material will stand on 1:1 slopes that vii 11 eventually ravel to approximately 1,\-: I slopes. As mentioned in our previous ietter, we bel ieve tne areas where the slopes are steeper than 50% should be avoided for construction. This is not so much for stability as it is for construction difficulty ,and the possible difficulty in revegetating the slope if it is disturbed. Fig, I indicates the general areas where we believe it is suitable for construction. The locations can be determined In the field by the break in slopes, These areas were roughly marked in the field on June 1, 1973. The dry and granular n~ture of these subsoils indicates that subsurface drainage is good, They should have a fair capacity for absorbing moisture as long as they are not excessively saturated. As mentioned above, excessive saturation would affect stabil ity. We bel ieve that the retaining structure at the base of the slo~e may be constructed in a manner similar to that which is now under way, This consists of timber wood cribbing which is tied into the back slope. The purpose of this cribbing would be to prevent surface , ,~/'" t"""'\ ~, .; !1r. F'-eo Hibberd Hibberd Construction.

Job No. 9413 Mr, Fred Hibberd Hibberd Construction Company i 127 Race Street Denver, Colorado 80206 Dear Mr. Hibberd: Introduction: A previous report was submitted by us on April 2, 1973, Because or the site being covered with snow and lack or access, no conclusions were drawn at that time. r'\ddltional investigatIons v/ere undertaken \'Ihen the sno", was gone to determ i ne the roundat i on type and maximum soil pressure ror the building and stability or the steep slope upon which they were to be placed. We have not rinished the investigation but are providing you with what we bel ieve will be the final conclusions. Additional observations are needed to substantiate the conclusions. ~roposed Construction: The proposed construction is similar to that described previously, A small shallow excavation wi,ll be required ror the lower level. The length parallel to the'slope will be about 34 fee, and the width perpendicular to the slope Vlil1 be about 15 reet. It is proposed to util ize both cut and fill to minimize the depth or excavation required. Footings Vlill be stepped down to be placed on natural soils. The buildings are to be relatively light construction, Field investigation: Two test holes were drilled near the east property boundary or the site, The purpose or these test holes Vias to determine the depth and type Or soils overlying bedrock,'the type or bedrock underlying the site, and the depth to rree water. Logs or these test hOles and a previous test pit are shown on Fig. 2. The two test holes indicate that bedrock I ies at a depth or 20 to 40 reet below the present ground ~urface. In Test Hole 1, no water was measured to a depth of 72 reet, and in Test Hole 2 water Vias measured at 50 reet eight days arter drilling. Subsoil Conditions: The subsoil conditions described in our previous report remain val id. The depth to bedrock indicated in the test holes and,exposure behind the Durant Apartment Building varies rrom 20, feet in '" , ; .;--- r'\ .^, Mr. Fred Hibberd Hibberd Construction Company flay 22, 1973 Page 2 Test Hole I, 40 feet in Test Hole 2 to about 7 reet in the cut exposure, The upper soils consist of a heterogeneous mixture of cobbles, gravel and sand with a silt matrix. Swell-consolidation tests indicate the upper soi15 wIll settle and the bedrock has a low swel1 potential, see Fig. 4. The results or a gradation test on the small sized portion of this mixture are shown in Fig. .5. The bedrock is tentative1y identified as the Belden formation of Pennsylvanian origin. !t is quite hard and dry. Preliminary Construction Areas: Based on our investigation to date, we believe it is safe to construct the proposed units in the areas \"here the ground surrace slope is less than 50%. These areas are shown on Fig,), Construction on steeper s]opes viould require a more detai led analysis. Care should' be taken during construction to minimize cuts and to provide surrace drainage along natural drainage ways or orr the project area where there are natural drainage ways. This must be done both during and after construction. , I Frorn a stabi 1 it"y point of vievJ, of more concern is the steep cut behind the present Durant lI,parthlent Bui lding, \1e bel ieve this steep cut should be provided with some type of retaining structure. The structure may be-either reinforced concrete or gravity. The reinforced concrete type structure will require less working space than the gravity wall. Lateral earth pressure design should be based on an equivalent rluid weight of 60 pcf. The soils in place have a dry unit weight of about 130 pcf with moisture content of about 10%. The wall will be 10 to 15 feet high, Foundation Recommendations: Based on the soils revealed in our test pit and drill holes, we bel ieve spread footings would be the most desirable type foundation. Spread rootings can be designed for a maximum soil pressure or 3,000 psf. Continuous foundation walls should be heavily reinrorced to span an unsupported length or at least 12 reet and to resist lateral earth pressure based on an equivalent fluid weight of 60 pcf, All footings should be placed below frost depth, We also recommend that the excavation be inspected by a competent soil engineer to determi~e i( the footings are placed on rirm soil capable or support- ing the recommended design pressures. Surrace Orainage: Provision must be made to provide adequate surface drainage so that water passing onto and OVer the site will not cause erosion or excessive saturation or the upper soils, We suggest that a drainage study be made to determine the most desirable way to handle the runorr. Runoff should be kept ofr or the present cut slopes as they are unvegetated and erode very easily, Particular care wil I be needed during construction to prevent the excavations from becoming excessively -.,. :JIIJ."

Final Report: As mentioned above, we bel icve that additional observations are required to determine the suitability of the entire site for construc- tion. We will continue this investigation and report the results to you as soon as possible, In the meantime, if we can provide additional information or discuss the results of our investigation). please let us know. - . ~)>~~ ,," S) C lit. ~ 1"1J.~~ 0\S'T;~ P4-~o ,'~ ",<J ~b ~ b -:;J:.. 1~\ U1 ~ 6538 J ,'I l..\,..."\ U'" 0 0 ~~~N~~~:~~ "'-~ RCH/bn Encls.

We went through your ~~~ file and determined that the following are necessary: ,Jo{ W'" 1. A landscaping plan and bid for the revegetation of the waterline together with bond for performance. I might add here that Donna made reference to sending the plan to the Soil Conservation Service in Glenwood Springs and in anticipation of that recommendation, we should consider doing that ourselves with the hope of obtaining a favorable recommendation from that Service prior to the meeting of December 18th. 2. The parking plan - I believe that you told me that parking had been worked out and I assume if it has, it will appear on the plat. If r am mistaken about this, please let me know. 3.

According to Donna, we will only have to go through the initial conceptual stage of Ordinance 19 and then we can pursue only the sUbdivision regulations. In reviewing the exceptions or exemptions to subdivision and Ordinance 19, it appears to me that you probably don't comply. We should be able to have a final decision of approval or dis- approval no later than the second thirty day period provided for in the Subdivision Regulations, which I would interpret to be around February 2Qth. If you wish to formally pursue exemp- tions or exceptions, we can discuss this when you are here later this month.

This comment was made because we feel that the construction of runoff detention tanks and similar facilities is an extreme measure in order to deve I op a site. However, the solution discussed does provide a workable way of detain- ing and managing increased runoff from the site.
