The building envelope locates the property as far from the Highway toward the Roaring Fork River as the 308 slope restrictions set forth in the 1041 approval will allow, thereby placing the proposed structure at 110 feet from Highway property line and 190 feet from Highway 82 itself. In order to comply with the 200 foot setback regulation, the structure would have to be placed in violation of the slope restrictions and partially in the river. Thank you.

County PO #301003 000015 Minutes Pitkin County Board of Adjustment Regular Meetinq July 6, 1993 Members Present: Rick Neiley, Chair Michael Cooper Bill Lukes Rod Dyer John Wheeler Evan Gull Staff: Joanna Schaffner, Zoning Enforcement Gull opened the meeting at 5:25 p.m. and introduced the Board to those present. Case 93-05. Robert F Leonard Lots 10 11'& 12 Block 5 Kistler Subdivision This case was tabled at the April 6, 1993, May 4, 1993, and June 15, 1993 meetings. Gull moved to table this case to the August 3, 1993 meeting. Dyer seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Case 93-15 Andrew Modell Lot 5 Block 2 Filin 2 Brush Creek Village Subdivision This application was tabled at the June 15, 1993 meeting. Glen Rappaport was present, representing Andrew Modell, to request a 26 foot front yard setback variance for an addition of the north side of the single family residence, and a 42 foot front yard setback variance for a deck addition of the east side of the house, where a 100 foot front yard setback variance is required in the AF- 1 zone district. Rappaport presented photographs to the Board. Gull stated that the proposed addition would increase the encroachment into the front yard setback and would exceed the 75 foot setback. He noted that either he could approve a 75 foot front yard setback, based on the AF-2 zone district requirements, or he could accept not complying with the 75 foot setback, if the addition did not encroach into the setback any more than the existing structure. Rappaport stated that he wanted to improve a specific area of the existing house, and, therefore, did not consider putting the addition on the other side of house, where it would not encroach into the setback, and added that he was trying to put the public space away from neighbor's property. oo~Ul~ There was no public comment. Cooper stated that he was an adjoining property owner, and asked if anyone objected to his voting on this case. There were no objections. Cooper moved to grant a 26 foot front yard setback variance for an addition on the north side of the existing house, and a 42 foot front yard setback variance for an addition on the east side of the existing house, due to topographic hardship and downzoning. Three members were in favor, with Gull and Lukes opposed. Motion failed. Discussion of the two separate front yard setback requests ensued. Gull stated that the topography of the site did not provide enough justification for the increased setback encroachment. Lukes moved to grant a 26 foot front yard setback variance for an addition on the north side of the existing house, and a 35.5 foot front yard setback variance for an addition on the east side of the existing house, due to topographic hardship. Neiley seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Case 93-16 Calvin Daks Lot R-45, Block 5, Starwood Subdivision This application was tabled at the June 15, 1993 meeting. Calvin Daks was present to request a 24 foot rear yard setback variance, where 30 feet is required in the AF-1 zone district, for construction of a detached garage. Daks noted that the application was tabled at the previous meeting pending receipt of a letter of approval of the variance request from the Starwood Homeowners Association. Neiley read into the record a letter from the Starwood Homeowners Association, stating their approval of the variance request. There was no public comment. Dick Fenton, a neighbor, stated by letter that he has no objection to the request. Lukes moved to grant a 24 foot rear yard setback variance, due to topographic hardship. Dyer seconded the motion. Four members were in favor, with Gull opposed. George Draper was present, representing the owner, to request a 40 foot front yard setback variance, where 100 feet is required in the 2 OYI~U~ Y RS-30 zone district, for construction of a garden shed attached to the existing garage. There was no public comment. Schaffner clarified that the front yard is considered the east side of the lot, and that a side yard setback variance was not required. Gull noted that the lot is approximately 1 acre, which is inconsistent with the zoning. Neiley moved to grant a 40 foot front yard setback variance, due to downzoning, in accordance with the plans submitted. Gull seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Case 93-20. William and Barbara Howell Lot 3 Block 3 Filing 2 Gateway of Snowmass Mesa Subdivision At the applicants' request, Dyer moved to table the application to the August 3, 1993 meeting. Gull seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Peter and Catherine Smith were present to request an 85 foot arterial highway setback variance, where 200 feet is required, for construction of a single family residence. Catherine Smith stated that their lot is a 4 acre lot, 2 acres of which are located on the river and up the bank on the opposite side. They received Minor 1041 Hazard Review approval for the building envelope. She noted that complying with the arterial highway setback requirement would put them in violation of the slope restrictions and in the river. There was no public comment. Gull moved to grant an 85 foot arterial highway setback variance, due to downzoning and topographic hardship. Dyer seconded the motion, and all were in favor. John Wheeler arrived at 6:05 PM. Case 93-22. David Swersky 4076 Lower River Road David Swersky was present to request a 100 foot front yard setback variance and an 18 foot NW side yard setback variance, where loo feet and 30 feet, respectively, are required in the AF-1 zone district, for relocation of an existing carport. Swersky stated that he is proposing to realign his existing carport 3 ~~~~~ to accomodate a new access to his property. The Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad Company issued a residential yard lease to him, which permits him to lease the land from his property line to the center line of railroad tracks. He also received a direct access permit from the railroad to cross the railroad tracks from Lower River Road to access his property, which is more convenient than the current access. The carport is located in the only flat spot on the property, so he would like to turn it and leave it in the same location. There was no public comment. Swersky noted that the carport will have less of a visual impact after it is turned, and that he will no longer need to use his neighbor's driveway to access his property. Dyer moved to grant a 100 foot front yard setback variance and an 18 foot NW side yard setback variance, due to downzoning. Gull seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Wheeler did not vote on this case. Tom Stevens was present, representing the owners, to request a 23 foot front yard setback variance, where 30 feet is required in the R-30 zone district, for construction of an attached garage. Stevens stated that an application for an administrative scenic overlay review is currently being reviewed by the Planning Office. He stated that a variance was granted in 1991 to allow an 18.4 foot front yard setback, but the proposed addition was not built. The current proposal is to construct an underground attached garage to accomodate two cars. The Ridge of Red Mountain Subdivision requires off-street parking for four cars; the owners currently have four surface parking spaces, which are all visible to the neighbors. The drop in grade on the side of the house is such that only the garage door would be visible and the garage would disappear underground.

William Baker, Lot 10 Holland Hills at Basalt Subdivision Bill Baker was present to request a 35 foot front yard setback variance, where 100 feet is required in the AF-1 zone district, and a 100 foot arterial highway setback variance, where 200 feet is required, for construction of a detached garage. Schaffner noted that Baker received a variance approval from the Board of Adjustment in February of 1992 (Resolution No. 92-15). Before granting the variance, the Board asked for additional information as to other setback variances granted along Highway 82 in the Holland Hills Subdivision. Research showed that a 100 foot arterial highway setback variance was generally being granted, and the Board granted that amount to Baker. Baker did not build the garage that was approved. Baker stated that the currently proposed garage is in a different configuration than the one previously approved, and was designed to take advantage of the new accessory height limit. There was no public comment. Neiley moved to grant a 35 foot front yard setback variance and a 100 foot arterial highway setback variance, due to downzoning. Dyer seconded the motion, and all were in favor. Gull did not vote on this case. **************************************************************** The meeting was adjourned at 6:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, ~~ m~~~ ~ 11,E ~` , Suzan a L.
