All persons affected by the pro- posed variance are invited to appear ; and state their views, protests or objections.If you cannot appear personally at such meeting, then you are urged to state your views by letter particularly if you have objection to such variance, as the Board of Adjustment will give serious consideration to the opinions of surrounding property owners and others affected in deciding to grant or deny the request for variance. The particulars of the hearing and of the requested variance are as follows Date and time of meeting: Thursday May 19, 1966, 5:15 P.M. MDST Location or Description of Property: Lot 20, James H.

Based on the available information, staff finds that your structure substantially complies with the current provisions of the Home Occupation provisions of the Land Use Code.The only apparent diversion from these regulations regards the employment of a part- time secretary. Under the existing code, only " inhabitants" of the dwelling may be involved with the commercial/research operation. The County is, however, currently pursuing amendments to the Land Use Code which would provide for one employee, not housed in the structure.Given the timing of construction and operation, I am confident that this technical code conflict will be resolved before you are able to utilize the addition for research purposes. Therefore, staff is able to exempt the addition (less than 30% of the total floor area) from 1041 or General Submission review. This is based on a finding that the dwelling is in compliance with the code requirements for a home occupation (note: living area exceeds 50% of the structure). Sincerely, „.4 2..

Beer 303 925-2832 Meg Cain 20 May 74 Pitkin County Conmissioners PO Cox 4096 Aspen, Colorado 81611 Gentl eren: I wot-Id like to requesu permission to move my Biological Laboratory from its r.recent location on the property of James H. Smith to a location on the property of Peter and Barbara Guy about 150 feet to the East. The reason I must move tne lab is because I do not own the land upon which it has been located.The lab was built in 1966 and received a variance from the Board of Adjustments for the uses to which it has been put for the past 74 years. I will use the lab for only those stated purposes in the future. Prior to beginnine construction in 1966 I had a Gentlerrens Brreer,ent with Mr. Smith to the effect that I would be able to purchase the land as soon as a survey had been completed. Mr. Smith has chanced his plans, and now demands that I vacate the lab by June lst, 197*. Last week I received an escitate frop, Thorms rouse Fovers, arid unless I cat. move the bullainf: ir·mediately, the n,(,ving will heve to Le delayed for several conths. I presented Mr. Peter Guv with a prouosal for a five to seven yeer lease (see pronosed terms attached). At the end of the term of lease I would move the building to another site or sell it to Mr. and Mrs. Guy. It would be most exnedient if I could receive a rulinr from the commissioners so that I could con'nlv with Mr. Smiths original request to move the building by June 1, 1974. otnerwise, I would have to see the buildinti to him at a considerable loss.

(5) Storage of field collecting equipment necessary for the overation of the Institute of Field Eiol«gy. The Aspen Institute of Field Biology which has been in operation for the past four years under the joint sponsorship of the Aspen Institute for numanistic Studies and Colorado College is best described in the attached brochure. The Field Biology Program will be sponsored by San Diego State College this summer. An evaluation of this program is also attached. The future objectives of the program can be most adequately provided for if a permanent headquarters is estab- lished. It is to this end that the undersigned is applying for a building permit in the County of Pitkin on the land identified on the enclosed plat. Sincerely Yours, t Science Education Consultant 008007 2 Exhibit |'66.5 @ounty PURPOSES AND OBJECTIVES OF THE BIOLOGICAL RESEARCH STATION IN ASPEN, COLORADO The Community of Aspen is in a unique position to make significant contributions to the teaching of biology and geology in the public schools of the United States for several reasons: (1) A great variety of natural enaironments ranging from Upper Sonoran to Arctic Alpine exist within easy access to the town of Aspen. (2) The cultural and recreational opportunities in the Aspen community provide an added incentive for educators to work in this region. (3) The wide variety of plants and animals existing in this region will serve as exkmples for the production of art work, slides, film strips and films. (4) The extensive collections of preserved plants and animals made by participants in biology institutes in the past four years will serve as reference material for produc- tion of futther educational innovations. (5) Tlie resort community that is geared to provide accomo- dations for tourists can easily absorb ·the participants and visitors attracted by the continuance of the Aspen Institute of Field Biology. It has become increasingly apparent in the last few years that a. permanent headquarters for the Aspen Institute of Field Biology should be established and that year round activities in field biology should be encouraged in the Aspen area. It is to this end that the undersigned plans to construct facilities to be known as the Biological Research Station east :f Aspen on property belonging to James Hopkins Smith Jr. The following activities, amongst others, are anticipated: (1) Preservation and study of plant and animal organisms. 000(06 Case 66-5CERTIFICATE OF MAILING county I hereby declare that on in the U.

U bk Lada Vrany Com- plaint about Courthouse re- modeling Bidding procedure .. PITKIN COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS May 20, 1974 - 5 Robert Lewis presented a request to move his biological lab/residence on to the adjacent property which is owned by Peter Guy.This would be a non-conforming use.The building exists as a variance at present. After much discussion it was noted that the ultimate solution is for Lewis to find a piece of land which conforms and move the studio there. The commissioners indicaued a willingness to recognize that this was a hardship case, but Lewis must now go to P& Zor decide to sell ot abandon his building. ----- Bill Ellsberry brought to the commissioners a copy of the agreement that Elam Construction Co. had signed with the D. & R. G. Railroad in connection with the Gravel Permit, noting that on page 8, paragraph 5 of the agreement with the Commissioners and the Planning and Zoning Committee a change had been made to changing the method of payment from cash to a bond.Shellman moved approval subject to review by the County Attorney and if found to be in order, authorized the signature of the Chairman o f the Board of Commissioners. ; 2nd by Baxter; unanimousF A discussion followed between Shellman and Ellsberry concerning accusations that had come to Shellman's attention concerning his vote in the matter of granting the gravel pit permit to Elam.Shellman asked that in the future Ellsberry come to the Board of Commissioners first if he felt anything was wrong and thereby get the correct information before talking about it to others. ---- Lada Vrany complained to the commissioners about having worked on the metal building behind the courthouse and not having been given a chance to bid on the basement remodeling which had turned into a large job. Edwards explained that when the metal building was built they had a good idea of what needed to be done.In the basement it was impossible to bid the job because it was only as the job progressed that they knew what work had to be done.The work had to be done quickly so that the building did not have to be shut down.Now that the basement was gutted, the work could proceed with bids. Shellman noted that Vrany as a citizen had a right to question and seek information, and he asked him to check over the file and see if the County was over-charged and please to let the commissioners know if there 002 810was a problem. -5- STUART Mc LAUGHLIN 4.-8/4 6 724 7-"*#GLia. flul o-ric 9.0.20•* 341 ZO,A...'.4.. c#LAW ,/ 9 4.-460* .4- .4-Ga7.7 ,0£EAA .AE. +1 -.7- A lk- ,-,L * 7.- - 7 ac n=-5 r»44% 4 4¥*11-A-*k 11- 1>-4 9 »6-rn AL 5 1-a_ m./CU j-4 *101 ,*.•L· Prnif-4 Ld »14 '4-A,¥ ,&47/25&£39*964_ 1 000011 r ,4 STUART W MCLAUGHLIN Ir,800"PANGELY.

Have you found that the individua I research projects have been helpful in your teaching? Over 90% of the response was affirmative. The negative reactions reflected a feel ing that an opportunity to use any such knowledge gained had not arisen, but that they hoped to be able to utilize it in the future. Several answers made particular note of the value of having worked on an individual research project. One teacher has developed a unit on Fresh WaterBiology in his Advanced Biology course. Another does field work in his local area, directing special student projects on field problems. The process oflearning continued for a teacher whose project dealt wi th tundra ecosystems,and he has spent the past two summers in the French Alps doing further study. A participant who has just completed his M.A. credited his Aspen research project with taking him into an exciting specialty field which he used as thebas is for his thes is. A general consensus developed that through having donesuch a research project, the techniques of enqui ry could be more effect ivelytaught. 2. Have you found that the daily field work has been helpful to you in your teaching? The response was 100% affirmative. Several participants made specific ccmments."A 'valuable conditioning' which would have been otherwise impossible," "if a picture is worth 1,000 words, being there and experiencing must be worth millions." "It will play an even more important part as we are re-evaluatingour curriculum with thoughts toward more field work." "lt enabled me to use various plant communities in the area more completely," "lt gave me techniques for using my local area for field work. Consequently I have started a long-term, year-round study of a local pond and have reported four previously unreported species of algae in this area." "It enabled me to talk about biomes that beforewere unknown to me beyond a text book." 3. Do you feel that the weekend activities, hikes, camp trips, horseback rides, etc. served a useful purpose in the program? The response was again 100% affirmative. Reactions ranged from a comment that such activity "did a lot toward making me a more complete individual", to "1 gained a more complete knowledge of the area, and had a better chance to talk with others about their experiences".

If you have had a part in or been responsible for the organization or operation of any field-oriented program, please describe the program and activities as well as the location of the program. Comments here were widely varied, and a random selection of the descript;ons submitted follows. 008(16 Aspen Institute of Field Biology -3 - Evaluation by Past Participants Began a summer nature program for grades 6 - 10, set up similarly to the summer Aspen Field Biology Institute, with participants makiag collections and trapping small mammals. Hope to have two of these nature programs next year -- one a field biology course for high school students. (Bert Dineau, 1964) At Andover we have our own wildlife sanctuary -- used in two ways: (1) ecolooy is an important part of our courses, and a number of laboratory sessions are held in the sanctuary; (2) each boy is required to carry out a six-weel< project during his third semester -- many do work in ecology in the sanctuary. (Gil Burnett, 1963) Began the establ ishment of a "Brailie Trail" at Freedlander Park, Wooster, Ohio. Poison oak and poison ivy ended this particular location's value. Alternate locations are being investigated. (D,S. Blauch, 1964) Currently considering the development of a biologically-oriented program in conjunction with the Rocky Mounta in Camp at Divide, Colorado, for grades 7 - 12 -- to begin next summer. We hope also to develop a self-guiding nature trail for the blind there. (Les Cook, 1963) Currently ordering equipment to teach the BSCS Green Version Biology to the inmates at the Federal Correctional Institution in Denver. (Ken Horn, 1964) Have planned three field trips: (1) aquatic environment -- soap lake, a permanent shallow lake which provides good marsh a rea studies; (2) oak and redwood forest association, Mt. Madonna City, Gilroy, California; and (3) marine biome, Point Lobos, California. (Jim Huff, 1964) Developed a field study for high school students in the Frontiers of Science Institute. Two weeks of an eight-week course are spent on biology. Directing many field trips for different organizations in the different life zones of Colorado. (Ivo Landauer,1962) Initiated the BSCS program in local district, School administration was Verypleased and subsequently held a two-week extension course this summer. All of the district's high schools will start teaching from the BSCS versions this year. (Bob Rice, 1963) Setting up a school land laboratory, consisting of sixty 40' x 40' plots. So,ss of the plots have forestry-type planting of twenty-five trees, and others have specimen trees. There is to be a small pond, also several temporary lots of nursery stock, animals and biennials. Attention is being paid to attractive aspects so that wildlife will also move into the area. (J. Stearns, 1963) Field work projects during the past year include: (1) Biological Fuel Cell (isolated desulfo vibrio from our sewage disposal; (2) isolation of soil bacteria using differential media (cultured out and identified 40 species and were able to culture out several photosynthetic species for use in this year's work); (3) isolated plant pigments, using paper chromatography; 000(17 Aspen Institute of Field Biology -4- Evaluation by Past Partici pants (4) isolated bacteriophages from local pond water for several organisms; (5) made soil studies for presence of nitrogen-fixing organisms other than those symbiotic with legumes (did the same for pond waters); (6) worked out culture techniques for cultivation of pure strains of nitrogen-fixing blue-green algae isolated from our pond; (7) studied artificial crowding of populations, stick as mice, flies, drosophilia, and certain isolated bacteria; (8) studied the population of snakes in a limited area; and (9) continuation of the study of changing population in a jar of sea water (North Carolina, 1960; California, 1961 and 1965). (Suzanne R. Wicks, 1962) A senior advanced program of field biology using the BSCS Lab Blocks "Field Ecology" and "Plant Growth and Development" was developed. The background at Aspen was invaluable in this. Currently planning a sumner field biology course for juniors and seniors. (Bobby Whitefield, 1964) Working this summer as project di rector of a neighborhood Youth Corps group of 24 boys in the development of a nature center on a 65-acre area.Hope later that this may be used for biology classes in a field work section of study. (Elmer Meyers, 1964) 8. Would you like to be placed on the mailing list of a proposed newsletter that would include items concerning former participants' activities? The response was 100% affirmative. 9. Miscellaneous comments and suggestions: A random selection of comments and suggestions received follows. A teacher must have as much growth as possible. My general knowledge was enhanced by participation in the Aspen Institute of Field Biology. The experience could not be duplicated. (William Bollacker, 1963) I found the Institute of enormous value not only in Biology, but also in Anthropology. I have developed a course on strategic lines -- Man and Culturu on Planet Earth from Pliocene to Recent - Axes Through Computers. The stress is on the relationship between culture and environment, evolution of culture, evolution of skeleton and brain, evolution of society from nuclear groups th r,·ligh the United Nations.

Aspen Institute of Field Biology -5 - Evaluation by Past Participants One of the values of the Aspen Field Biology Institute was the broadening of my horizons as to how nature works with animals and plants under varying conditions. Having seen and experienced first hand, we can convey the subject to students with more meaning. (Art Satre, 1963) This was the most exciting academic experience of my life. I wish this were a sequential program so that we could return. (0. White, 1964) It would be helpful if the participants could get a brTef outline of the procedures and processes involved in starting a field program, such as financial aid, grants, expenses involved, and so forth. (W. C. Fraser, 1963) Very good Institute. The weekend activities and trips are a very excellent way of learning and enj oying at the same time. I would like to suggest more discussion on projects before and during the work on them. (John Eckert, 1964) It might be considered for the good of the Field Biology Institute to c.et upits own headquarters. (D. S. Blauch, 1964) The structure of this course was far more effective than that of most college courses with their tests and busy work. (Jim Huff, 1964) The program was excellent, and the instructors superior. 1 particularly likedthe visiting instructors. I wish I could participate again.

I ...?.P AL :411 #5 29 -14·.1. blp.¥01,..€ Colorado College of Col- do Springs and the Aspen Insfitute of Humanistic S.kies, in conjunction with the National Science Foundation, will present their fourth eigh,-week institute in field biology for high school teachers at Aspen, Colorado, from June 7 through July 30, 1965. The physical selling of Aspen is ideally suited lo the type of field program anticipated. The town, iii the heart of the Colorado Rockies, is in the center of a re· gion of great geological and climatic diversity. The high relief, as it exposes a varied array of geological forma- lions and creates many slope exposures, affords an enormously diverse selective potential for the biota. Within o twenty mile radius is to be found relatively untouched sagebrush, petran brushlond, pinyon-luniper, Douglas·fir, lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine, spruce-fir, aspen, olpine tundra, subolpine forbe, and many types of 1/W ow communities. in zonal order. In addition, an array of special habitats such as variouc types of marshes, fire-burn successions, ponds and lakes, brooks ond streams, slides and scree, which dramatically display the selective relation of the biota to its environ- ment. The village of Aspen, where this field program will center, is a bustling community with all of the facil- ifies necessary for modern living, an extremely active cultural life as well, but still with the romantic aura of a former mining camp. Program The direction of this field institute in biology will be to consider living organisms in the out-of-doors from the biotic community and ecosyste,nal standpoint. As a part of the program there will be consideration of methods of field study, including collecting techniques, identifica- tion, measurement of environmental faclors, methods of biolic community analysis such as censusing and sam- plingllchniques, determination of indicalors, preparal tioneld maps, etc. These techniques ore not con- slrudis ends in themselves but rather will be employed and emphasized as devices for the accumulation of in- formation, from which ecological concepts con be de- veloped. In this Inslitute teachers will have the experience of developing concepts based upon gathered data, and hence as a result of these meaningful field experiences they will be in 0 better position to utilize this approach to biology in their own teaching situation. In addition, participants will hove an opportunity to develop short- term field research proiects. This research experience, ever, though limited, may encourige teachers to con- tinue biological field research in their own communities as part of their professional activity. It is our hope thal Ihe teachevolved here will serve as nuclei for the formation or-,milar programs in their respective states, that cooperative planning between uni· versity biology departments, teachers colleges and state departments of education will evertually bring abou, science teacher institutes throughout the country organ- ized for the purpose of encburaging the inclusion of meaningful field work in the high school biology cur· riculum. The program's one course, Field Biology, will take an ecosystemal-community approach to field biology, with primary emphasis upon the development of ecological concepts, secondarily the development of field tech- niques and the accumulation of field-related biological facts. The "why" and "how" aspects of field biology will take precedence over the more common "what" op- proach. The basic underlying intent of the course will be to encourage teachers to incorporate field biology into their own teaching and give them the background, enthusiasm, and direction to do so. The first week of the program will involve a general Orientation on field biology, including development of the ecosystem and communily nature, organization and dynamics, the nature ond significance of environmental factors, and field analysis techniques. The geology and meleorology of the region will be stressed. The follow- ing six weeks will be devoted primarily to botanical and zoological field work, and the thirty-two participants will be divided into small field groups for the analysis of various biotic communities in the Aspen area. During the field studies of a community·type, each field group will work in a selected portion of the community-type under the leadership of a staff or visiting ecologist. The final week of the institute will be devoted to special field situations ond lo a summary of the summer's work, with consideration of the aspects that can be incorpo rated into high school biology teaching. Each week there will ber -ting ecologists incorporated inlo the program, partiC+!fting in the field work and giving special lectures. Throughout the summer, par- ficipants will maintain field and lab notebooks, make representative collections, write reports, carry out inde- pendent research projects, and make oral presentalions. Weekends can be devoted to individual research proi- ects, specially scheduled trips, or used for personal avo- calional purposes. Staff and Facilities The co·directors of the program are Dr. James H. Enderson (ecology, Colorado College) and Mr. Robert Lewis (ecology, Aspen Institute). The permanent staff, in addition, includes a plant ecologist and two animal ecologists, with a number of visiting regional scientists, each a specialist in some field discipline, participating from a day to a week. Much of the program, of course, will be pursued in the field. However, pertinent indoor activities will center at the Aspen Institute, where laboratory and library facil- ities are maintained. Eligibility This program is open to 32 teachers of biology al the high school level who have had at least three years of experience teaching high school biology. Preference Will be given to teachers who come from western Mates, although teachers from elsewhere will not be excluded from consideration. Participonis should be in excellenl physical health, able to do daily field work at mountain altitudes up to 12,000 feet. They should have on above· average lo strong academic background in biology but should not have a plethora of previous N.S.F. institutes. Applicants recently involved in academic year institutes will not be considered. Speciot attention will be given to teachers who are interested in incorporating field work into their own biology curriculum and teachers involved in the BSCS Green Version. This is an institute more expensive lo the participants concerned Ihon most, but on the other hand 11 affords unique experiences professionally and avocationally. Recreation In Aspen, with its variety of summer cultural c,ctivities, recreation i. no problem. Some leclures and seminar programs of the Aspen Institule of Humanistic Studies, as well as the fine musical presentations, will be made available to participants of the biology institute. Picnics and optional weekend activities will be planned for the interested institute members. There is, incidentally, a recreation fee of about $15 levied on all participants to pay for weekly dinners, picnicj and other special events, since N.S.F. funds are not available for 3uch activities 300<jt) ..29 .C STUART W.

Edgar Stanton, Jre, Chairlman Pitkin County Board of Adjustment County Court House Aspen, Colorado Gentlemen: I am wrdting this letter to confirm my understanding of hearing before your Board held at 5:15 p.me, May 19, 1966. This heariny covered a variance for a biological research station to be located on a two-acre tract somewhere in Lot 20 on the James k. Bmith ranch East of Aspene Mr. Robert B. Dewis, science education consultant, testified at the hearing that he was leasing the land fram Zto Smith under a perpetual lease apxwement for this biologi- cal researeli station installatian. The Board of Adjustment granted the variance cnly insofar as it would apply to two acres to be surveved. The surveyor's plat of this two acres is to be filed with the buildinp insDector. The sole reason for the variance is the fact that the zonin, ordinance does not specifically permit a biological research station. It was understood fram the testimony given at the hearing tliat this would be a non-cammercial use and that it could nor at any time be converted to a oorrmercial use:It was also understood that the variance applies only to the two acrese Uhder these circumstances, I wish to px) on record of ha,/in- no objection whatsoever to the variance e In facts I wish to state ,that I give it my unqualified supporte Very truly yours, 0 U« 4 »744«r ' Stuart W.
