Vos Caudill, Pitkin County, CO —� DETERMINATION OF THE HEARING OFFICER OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT OF PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO, APPROVING THE GOVT 33 LLC SCENIC VIEW PROTECTION REVIEW Determination No. .9 -2012 7. The Hearing Officer considered the application at public hearings on January 19 and February 16, 2012. 8. The Hearing Officer finds that the proposed residence complies with the provisions of Sec. 7-20 - 120(d) of the Code, as it is not located on the most visible portion of the site as seen from Highway 82 and does not project above a ridgeline; the residence is broken up vertically by stepping up and back into the hillside with the upper two floors set back from the lower level; the hip gable roof has a low profile; the residence will be built into the hillside and earth - sheltered on three sides; and earth - toned and natural exterior building materials will be used. 9. The Hearing Officer further finds that the two alternatives proposed by the Applicant to mitigate for potential rockfall hazard and slope instability — (1) tiered Ground Nail Walls on the sides and rear of the residence, or (2) a combination of tiered Ground Nail Walls to the rear and Hybrid Micropile and Ground Nail Wall Systems on the sides of the residence — are feasible and will have negligible visual impacts as seen from Highway 82. With both alternatives the retaining walls will not be visible behind the structure of the residence and the architectural plans /renderings, site plan and landscape plan remain the same. The first alternative can only be accomplished if the Applicant obtains easements for soil RECITALS 1. GOVT 33 LLC ( "Applicant') has applied to the Pitkin County Community Development Director G ( "Director ") for scenic view protection review approval to construct a new single family residence. 2. Neighbors Austin and Georgie Gleason and Arnold Porath submitted objections to the application, _t" therefore, the application was continued to a public hearing before the Hearing Officer. 0 3. The property is located above the Silverlode/Williams Ranch Subdivision on Lower Smuggler O Mountain at the top of Spruce Street; and is more specifically described as Lot 33, in Section 7, U Township 10 South, Range 84 West of the 6" P.M. � c N 0 4. The parcel contains 1.581 acres and is a non - conforming size parcel in the TR -2 zone district. N V 5.

The Land Use Code authorizes the Community Development Director to grant Scenic View Protection Review approval. However, a public hearing before the Hearing Officer is required if any objections are received from the adjacent property owners. Objections to the application have been submitted by neighbors Austin and Georgie Gleason and Arnold Porath; therefore, the application is being considered by the Hearing Officer. Neighbor Todd Martin has also submitted comments supporting the objection. Tom Smith, representing Gleasons and Poraths, has also submitted a letter. All emails and letters are attached for reference. The Hearing Officer continued the application on January 19, and requested additional information from the Applicant on the geologic hazard mitigation and the scenic impacts of the mitigation alternatives. APPLICANT: GOVT 33 LLC REPRESENTATIVE: Mitch Haas LOCATION: Top of Spruce Street ZONING/LOT SIZE: The parcel contains 1.581 acres and is nonconforming in size in the TR -2 zone district. ISSUES: The Applicant submitted a letter from HP Geotech and a plan sheet showing the approximate locations of all slope stability /retaining walls that will be involved in the construction and mitigation efforts. The plan shows tiered Ground Nail Walls to the rear (northeast) of the residence, and Hybrid Micropile and Ground Nail Wall Systems on the sides (northwest and southeast) of the residence. The Hybrid System would eliminate the need to encroach onto adjacent properties for the soil nails. HP Geotech states, • "The retaining walls uphill of the pool house will create flat areas to help catch rocks and the shoring walls of the cut faces will mitigate dislodging rocks from the cut face and rolling off of the site." • "The risk of rocks being dislodged by erosion on the natural hillside is considered low and typical of this area. Development of the proposed pool house will not increase the hillside rockfall risk to adjacent properties below the pool house site." The Applicant will continue to pursue easements from the adjacent property owners (McCallum and Pitkin County) to allow soil nails to encroach onto those properties below the surface. The Applicant asserts that the mitigation alternatives (Ground Nail Walls on three sides or combination of Ground Nail Walls to the rear and Hybrid System on the sides) have similar and negligible visual impacts as seen from Highway 82, as the retaining I of walls will not be visible behind the structure of the residence, and that the architectural plans /renderings, site plan and landscape plan remain the same with either alternative. The Applicant also notes that a rockfall netting fence has been installed below the driveway to the adjacent Smuggler C parcel. The fencing is to remain in place during construction and for one year after the Certificate of Occupancy is issued for the Smuggler C residence. The Applicant commits to extend this fencing through the GOVT 33 parcel along the length of the downhill side of the driveway, and to maintain the fencing during construction and for one year after the Certificate of Occupancy is issued for the GOVT 33 residence. The fencing is not visible from Highway 82. Staff believes that the Applicant has demonstrated that the two alternatives to mitigate for potential rockfall hazard and slope instability are feasible and will have negligible visual impacts as seen from Highway 82. The rockfall netting fence below the driveway will provide additional off -site mitigation during construction. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Hearing Officer approve the GOVT 33 LLC Scenic View Protection Review, subject to the attached Determination. ATTACHMENTS: A.

Box 8114 Aspen, Colorado 81612 robs'O-T ,irchiteture_alui Job No. 107 287A Subject: Review of Proposed Grading and Shoring Wall Plans with Regard to Rockfall Risk, Lichtenstein Pool House, Lot 33, Spruce Street, North of Aspen, Pitkin County, Colorado Gentlemen: As requested by Scott Kraelmke with RGS Architecture, we have reviewed the Site Plan and Grading Plan provided by RGS Architecture and the Shoring Wall Location Plan by Yeh and Associates dated January 9, 2012 with regard to rockfall risk to the proposed pool house development at the subject site. We previously conducted a subsoil study for design of foundations at the site and presented our findings in a report dated November 30, 2007, Job No. 107 0287 and a geologic site assessment that included Lot 33 in a report dated June 8, 2007, Job No. 107 0280. A cursory review of the site was made on January 31, 2012 by the undersigned representative of Hepworth - Pawlak Geotechnical. The site is essentially the same as described in our previous reports. The driveway to Lot 33 had been rough cut and additional excavation in the pool house site had apparently not been made. The proposed excavation for the pool house foundation is proposed to be retained by shoring walls on the 3 cut sides and will be made in 3 levels stepped into the hillside. The uppermost cut and shoring will be for a site wall separate and uphill of the pool house that will provide for surface drainage away from and around the pool house. The risk of rockfall impacting this site was evaluated m our geologic site assessment and consists of rocks being potentially undermined by erosion on the steep hillside above the pool house and rocks being dislodged by excavation for the pool house foundation. The retaining walls uphill ofthe pool house will create flat areas to help catch rocks and the shoring walls of the cut faces will mitigate dislodging rocks fi-om the cut face and rolling off of the site. 3 Warren Lichtenstein January 31, 2012 Page 2 The risk of rocks being dislodged by erosion on the natural hillside is considered low and typical of this area. Development of the proposed pool house will not increase the hillside rockfall risk to adjacent properties below the pool house site. The flat areas uphill of the pool house will help to further reduce the potential for rockfall impact to the pool house but the site should not be considered totally risk free. We understand that this low rockfall risk is acceptable to the owner. Based on these conditions, no further rockfall risk mitigation is needed. The recommendations submitted in this letter are based on our understanding of the proposed grading, construction and owner accepted risk, and our previous experience at the site. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our office. Sincerely, HEPWORTH — PAWLAK CONICAL, INC. Steven L.

Smuggler Parcel C has already received 1041 and Scenic Review approvals and has been issued a building permit. Construction has recently commenced on that property and, as a precautionary measure, a rockfall netting fence has been installed below the driveway. (Please see the two photos attached to this letter.) In getting the building permit issued, the applicant agreed to keep this fencing in place during construction and for one year after the Certificate of Occupancy (C /O) is issued for the Smuggler Parcel C residence. An extension of the same type of fencing will be sufficient for rockfall mitigation on the Government Lot 33 parcel as well. As such, and with Scenic Review approval for Government Lot 33, the applicant will commit to the extension of the rockfall fencing along the length of the downhill side of the driveway through the parcel and will retain it throughout construction and for one year after a C/O is issued for the Govt 33 residence. It is noted that the existing fence is barely visible from the bottom of the driveway. Therefore, it will not be visible from State Highway 82 and, thus, will have no bearing on the Scenic Review approval now being considered for the Government Lot 33 parcel. Should you have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sheet Number: Lichtenstein Residence Pool House I 1 of 1 MEMORANDUM TO: Pitkin County Hearing Officer FROM: Suzanne Wolff, Senior Planner i7tiv RE: GOVT 33 LLC Scenic View Protection Review DATE: January 19. 2012 SUMMARY: The Applicant is requesting Scenic View Protection Review approval to construct a new single family residence. The Land Use Code authorizes the Community Development Director to grant Scenic View Protection Review approval. However, a public hearing before the Hearing Officer is required if any objections are received from the adjacent property owners. Objections to the application have been submitted by neighbors Austin and Georgie Gleason and Arnold Porath; therefore, the application is being considered by the Hearing Officer. Neighbor Todd Martin has also submitted comments supporting the objection. Tom Smith, representing Gleasons and Poraths, has also submitted a letter. All emails and letters are attached for reference. The Hearing Officer will conduct a site visit prior to the hearing on January 19. The Applicant has notified staff that story poles will be erected for the site visit. APPLICANT: GOVT 33 LLC REPRESENTATIVE: Mitch Haas LOCATION: Top of Spruce Street ZONINGILOT SIZE: The parcel contains 1.581 acres and is nonconforming in size in the TR -2 zone district BACKGROUND: The Hearing Officer denied a request for 1041 Hazard Review and Conceptual Submission approval, pursuant to Determination No. 25 -2004. The BOCC then determined that the denial constituted a taking, and remediated the taking by granting approval for development of a single family residence, pursuant to Resolution No. 006 -2005. The BOCC subsequently extended the vested rights for seven years until April 13, 2012, pursuant to Resolution No. 044 -2005. The 1041 Hazard Review Site Plan is recorded in Plat Book 73 at Page 73. The Hearing Officer granted Scenic Overlay Review approval for a driveway to serve the GOVT 33 LLC parcel and the adjacent Smuggler C LLC parcel, pursuant to Determination No. 15 -2004. The owner subsequently obtained an access permit and constructed the driveway. Condition #3 of Resolution No. 006 -2005 states, "Prior to submission of any building permit applications, the Applicant shall submit an application and gain approval for a Scenic Overlay Review, pursuant to Section 3 -60- 040 of the Land Use Code [now Sec. 7 -20 -120 of the 2006 Land Use Code: Scenic View Protection Review], once plans for the proposed residence have been prepared. The application shall include a detailed landscaping plan. The Applicant shall erect story poles to represent the height of the proposed residence, prior to the hearing date for the scenic overlay review." The prior approvals are attached for reference. UUOCIUi REFERRAL COMMENTS: The application was referred to the North Spruce Street Homeowners Association, but comments were not received from the HOA. NEIGHBOR COMMENTS: The initial objections submitted by the Gleasons and Poraths addressed the following issues: • Question whether the photographic simulations are accurate. • Concern with development on slopes in excess of 30 %, slope stability and potential rockfall impact on neighboring residences. • Visibility of residence from Highway 82. • Height of residence. • Fire mitigation. • Drainage issues. • Road damage caused by construction. Tom Smith, representing Anne and Amy Porath and Georgie and Austin Gleason, submitted a letter dated January 9, 2012, in which he asserts that the application is incomplete, due to lack of a landscaping plan and the lack of complete building plans. In particular, Mr. Smith asserts that the application should address retaining walls and other improvements necessary to develop the residence on steep slopes, which should be considered as part of the Scenic Review. STAFF COMMENTS: SCENIC VIEW PROTECTION REVIEW (LUC Sec. 7 -20 -120): The property is within Highway 82 scenic view protection area ( "SVPA "). a. The proposed development shall utilize existing topography and natural vegetation, such as ridges, hills, and existing trees, to screen buildings to the maximum extent practicable when viewed from those rights - of -way listed in subsection (b) above. Response: Staff agrees with the Applicant that the existing topography and vegetation afford little opportunity for screening as seen from the highway, as there are no ridges, hills or stands of trees that would provide screening. b. The proposed development shall avoid the location of structures within the Scenic View Protection Areas, and shall avoid the location of structures within any Viewplane identified in the State Highway 82 Corridor Master Plan and Down Vallev Comprehensive Plan if possible. If location outside the Scenic View Protection Area and defined Viewplanes is not practicable, then the proposed development shall not be located on the highest ground or most visible portion of any site as viewed from those corridors listed in subsection (b) above. Response: The entire property is within the mapped SVPA, but it is not within an identified viewplane. The residence will not be located on the highest ground, as the property continues farther up the steep hillside. The visibility from the highway will be at a substantial distance and from limited vantage points. C. The proposed development's height and bulk shall be designed to avoid, to the maximum extent practicable, the visibility of buildings from those corridors listed in subsection (b) above. This may include, but shall not be limited to, breaking the mass of the building down into a series of smaller forms, articulation of the building facades to avoid a wall or row effect, and staggering roofines to avoid a long unbroken plane. LJtJQ(�`J� Response: The residence will be built into the hillside and earth - sheltered on three sides, due to the steep slope. The Applicant notes that horizontal articulation and modulation of forms is not practicable given the narrow dimensions of the property and the steep slope. Rather than designing the residence as one continuous mass, the residence is broken up vertically by stepping up and back into the hillside. The upper two floors are set back from the lower level, and the hip gable roof has a low profile. Staff agrees that the design responds to the constraints that were acknowledged when the prior approvals were granted. d. The proposed structure shall be placed so it does not project above a ridgeline such that a structure silhouettes against the sky when viewed from those corridors listed in subsection (b), unless there are no alternate building sites on the lot or parcel. Response: The proposed residence will not project above a ridgeline, as seen from the highway. e. The proposed development shall be designed to complement the natural topography of the land through the use of techniques such as earth - sheltered design, the use of natural materials and coloring, the use of low - reflectance materials, or clustering of structures on the least visible portions of the site. When a building is proposed near a ridgeline, then its form (particularly its roofform) shall replicate, parallel, or complement the natural form of the ridgeline so that it appears to be an element of the natural ridgeline. Response: The Applicant intends to utilize natural materials and coloring. A substantial portion of the residence will be built into the slope. The neighbors have questioned whether the photographic simulations accurately represent not only the residence, but retaining walls and other improvements necessary to develop the residence on steep slopes. The Applicant states that no retaining walls are proposed separate from the residence, and that soil nails will be used to stabilize the slope (Applicant has proposed to submit a letter from a civil engineer, but the letter was not available to include with this memo). Due to the narrowness of the parcel, the soil nails would extend into the two adjacent parcels — one owned by William and Yvonne McCallum and one owned by the County as open space. The Applicant has not demonstrated the right to extend the soil nails into the adjacent properties. If permission is not granted, then the Applicant must provide alternative mitigation, which may affect the design of the residence. f. The proposed development shall preserve natural vegetation and avoid development within irrigated meadows, to the maximum extent practicable. Response: The Applicant plans to remove as little vegetation as practicable, and to reseed disturbed areas. g. The proposed development shall install utilities in locations and through procedures that minimize visual impacts to the maximum extent practicable. Response: All utilities will be installed underground. h. All satellite dishes in the proposed development shall be located to minimize visibility from those rights -of- way listed in subsection (b), and shall use earth tone colors and /or screening to minimize their visual impact. Response: The Applicant shall comply. The proposed development shall not use earth moving and berms as the primary means of compliance with these regulations, but earth moving may be utilized in conjunction: with other techniques to comply with standards in this section. Where earth moving techniques are necessary, man -made forms should be undulating and natural in appearance. Response: Earthmoving and berms are not proposed. 0,0 iIUJ j. The exterior of all development, except development located and designed in the form of a ranch compound, shall be built or painted with indigenous earth tone materials or colors. The exterior of a ranch compound should be built or painted with indigenous earth tone materials, or shall be painted or stained using local, traditional ranch colors, which shall include shades of red, brown, or white. Paints or stains that simulate weathered barn wood also shall be permitted. k All roofs shall have a non - reflective color or composition. Reflective roof materials shall not be used unless the materials are treated prior to installation to eliminate reflection, with the exception of materials associated with solar or photovoltaic equipment. 1. Lands disturbed by earth moving or berms should be revegetated using native species that are already growing on or near the site. Topsoil shall be stockpiled and placed on disturbed areas. Irrigation shall be provided to the revegetated areas if it is necessary to ensure survival of planted native species. Response: Earth tone materials or colors shall be used. All roofs will have a non - reflective color or composition. All disturbed areas will be revegetated. m. To the maximum extent practicable, roads and driveways shall be located to skirt the edge of and avoid dividing meadows and pastures and to avoid major road cuts. Roads and driveways should take advantage of the screening potential of natural topography and existing vegetation. Existing roads and driveways shall be used where practical. To enhance screening, a row of trees may be planted along the roads or driveways. To the maximum extent practicable, roads and driveways located around the edge of or in meadows shall be laid out with soft, curving edges and shall avoid straight line corridors that are incongruous with the natural setting. Response: The driveway will remain in its current location, which was approved through Scenic Review prior to its construction. RURAL CHARACTER GUIDELINES: The property does not include any open meadows or pastures, and there are no stands of vegetation or topographic breaks to locate behind. The residence is located within the approved building envelope, which was the deemed the best possible location on the site, given the constraints. LANDSCAPING AND VEGETATION PROTECTION (LUC Sec. 7 -20 -130): As noted above, condition #3 of Resolution No. 006 -2005 requires the Scenic Review application to include a detailed landscaping plan. Landscaping is shown on the site plan (Exhibit 4 to the application). The plan shows limited plantings on the north and south sides of the residence, and plantings on the west side of the driveway. These plantings are not identified by size or type. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Hearing Officer continue the GOVT 33 LLC Scenic View Protection Review to 2012 to allow the Applicant to submit additional information, as follows: • Civil engineer report on mitigation to stabilize slopes. If soil nails are required, then the Applicant must provide easements to allow the soil nails to extend onto adjacent properties. If permission is not granted, then the Applicant must provide alternative mitigation, which may affect the design of the residence. • Detailed landscape plan, including size and type of plantings. ljUUJ04 ATTACHMENTS: A.

We appreciate Bonnie sending them. It further supports our opinion that there needs to be additional review of this project. The photographs do not appear to be realistic in respects to the skyline nor the surrounding structures. We are strongly opposed to this project for many reasons. The fact that is has gone this far with the slope being more than 30 degrees is a puzzle to us. If it could be built it would look like a house stacked atop another house. Not to mention that one loose boulder could destroy our home and our lives. And we believe the likelihood of that happening is great. We appreciate your time in this matter. Respectively, Austin and Georgie Gleason Email secured by Check Point Gr ui lu6 Suzanne Wolff From: Arnold Porath <alp @crgpm.com> Sent: Monday, December 19, 20116:53 PM To: Suzanne Wolff Cc: ggleas @comcast.net;'Yvonne MCCALLUM' Subject: Govt 33 Ilc Scenic View Protection Rview (Case P088 -11) Suzanne, This e-mail will serve to follow -up on our conversation of last week. There are many issues regarding the approval of Case P088 -11, too numerous to describe in a brief e-mail. I understand that the noticed review concerns scenic overview issues exclusively yet I believe there exist other extenuating circumstances that directly and indirectly affect the consideration of application for the referenced case. In particular the information submitted by the applicant has not fully satisfied the letter or spirit of the ordinance; as described the proposed building will clearly be visible from Highway 82 and severely so if the structure is taller than one story. Has the applicant stated that the structure will be limited to one story, has a story pole been used to describe the height of a single or two story structure? As we discussed, once this application has been approved it will almost be impossible to voice any objection to the development process and I remain concerned that once construction plans are submitted we will be without a voice to critique or object to the size or massing of the structure, visible or not from Highway 82. Fire suppression remains a very important concern for those homeowners downhill from the proposed site. There have been severe drainage issues a few years ago that affected many of the homes on Spruce as well as those at the bottom of the hill, disturbing the hillside for a construction site that will be greater than 30% above the natural grade only exacerbates the potential for severe damage from debris downhill. Two homes are in a direct line with the proposed construction site where severe rock and debris flow has the potential for property damage and one must also consider the life safety issue that could result in personal injury or loss of life. The owner of this parcel (State Parcel Identification Number 2737- 071 -00 -040) 1 believe has finally completed construction of another house on Spruce Street after five long years of development resulting in various inconveniences and damage. More particularly we have been subjected to noise and dust pollution and considerable road damage which the applicant has to date refused to repair. Please note that our road is a private roadway and therefore we have to bear the cost of any repairs to the roadway or underlying utilities. The applicant, as you are aware, has another lot adjacent to the referenced property and I suspect he will want to develop that site as well. The applicant was aware of the existing ordinance that prohibits construction of any improvement where the site is in excess of 30% above the natural grade, yet with full knowledge he decided to purchase the properties with all its benefits and burdens and now he cries foul and at the peril of adjacent neighbors and wants various agencies to address his grievencess. One last point, the homeowners provided a road access easement to the previous owner of the subject property knowing full well that the existing ordinance would not allow the construction of any structure above a 30% grade. I for one would not have agreed to provide an easement had I known that construction above the 30% limit would be disregarded placing all homeowners on Spruce in a compromising situation. It is not out of the question to revisit the terms of the access easement and if for any reason access should now be reversed or denied than the Scenic View Review Application is rendered moot. For the reasons stated above, I respectfully request that the hearing scheduled to review the application be delayed until such time as many of the important issues may be settled to the satisfaction of all the affected parties. Respectfully, Arny Porath 707 Spruce Street Aspen, CO 81611 Suzanne Wolff From: Todd Martin <tdmgml @gmail.com> Sent: Monday, January 09, 2012 12:39 PM To: Suzanne Wolff Cc: Georgie Gleason Subject: Government 33 Development Concerns Dear Suzanne, My wife Martha and I own and live about half of the year at 313 Silverlode, directly below the Government C (888 Spruce) and Government 33 developments owned by Warren Lichtenstein. This letter is to express our grave concerns about these projects. First, we agree with the objections raised by Austin, Pierce & Smith PC in their letter to you of January 7. These two construction projects are on 30 degree slopes, directly above our houses, and stability is far from assured. The projects present significant dangers of falling rock and boulders, which can create significant and irreparable damage. The insurance policy taken out by Mr. Lichtenstein does not provide any comfort. Damage done may not be possible to compensate for, either financially or otherwise. Also, the projects are not fully and adequately specified. We do not know what Mr. Lichtenstein will plant or remove within the property, or what the result will look like. The result may well not unattractive for us, our neighbors, Pitkin County, and the City of Aspen. We were not notified of 888 Spruce (Government C) and given an opportunity to review development plans or to object. Having walked the parcel two weeks ago, I cannot imagine how a house will be built on such a slope and with such limited and difficult access. Given Mr. Lichtenstein's 6 -year construction project at 777 Spruce, having far more accessible land, it is highly likely that the next two construction projects, if they proceed, will create a multi -year mess and hardship across our neighborhood. It will be impossible for these projects to proceed without gross intrusion upon at least a dozen houses, and many more Aspen residents, below. We join with our neighbors in objecting to these projects and asking you to deny permits necessary for their construction. Thank you very much for your consideration of these concerns and interest in this matter, and please keep us informed.

Galena Street Aspen, CO 81611 Re: Government 33 LLC — Application for Scenic Review Dear Suzanne, We represent Anne and Arnie Porath, and Georgie and Austen Gleason, owners and residents of properties adjacent to and in close proximity to the property which is the subject of the above - referenced application. This letter is submitted for inclusion in the record of proceedings on the application, and we hereby request to be notified of all further proceedings and documents submitted in connection with the application. It is our position that the pending application is incomplete for the following reasons: 1. Lack of Landscaping Plan. BOCC Resolution No. 006 -2005, whereby the County Commissioners found a taking and approved remediation, included numerous conditions. Condition 3 requires the application for Scenic Overlay Review which is currently pending. This condition states that "The application shall include a detailed U i �� AUSTIN, PEIRCE & SMITH, P.0 Attorneys at Law Suzanne Wolff Letter January 9, 2012 Page 2 landscaping plan." However, the application contains no landscaping plan, detailed or otherwise. This condition is in addition to the Code requirements of Section 7 -20 -120, and the applicant County staff, and the Hearing Officer do not have the discretion to ignore this requirement. The application states "The existing topography and vegetation do not provide an opportunity for screening." However, this does not address Condition No. 3, which adds the requirement for a landscaping plan. Additionally, §7 -20 -120 (e)(2)(b) states that where natural vegetation does not provide adequate screening, "vegetation shall be planted to augment the existing vegetation and maintain the visual integrity of the protected view." 2. Lack of Complete Building Plans. The sketches attached to the application identify the location of the proposed residence and include a rudimentary design of the exterior of the home. However, this information is incomplete for the purpose of this review. Section 7 -20 -120 applies to all of the "proposed development' on the property, notjust the residence. (See §7 -20 -120 and §7 -20 -120 (d)). "Development' includes all of the building activity that will occur on the property (See §Ch. 11, Definitions, "development") The Hearing Officer previously found that the property is comprised of slopes in excess of 30 %, with the majority of the area comprised of slopes in excess of 45 %, areas where development is usually prohibited. Also, it is apparent from other development in the immediate area that significant mitigation will be required for construction on the steep slopes comprising the property. We understand that HP Geotech has done work on this property in connection with the geologic in stability of the site. BOCC Resolution No. 006 -2005 also requires a plan prepared by a professional engineer or geologist to address mitigation of geologic hazards. We believe that such mitigation will require retaining walls and related improvements which will compromise part of the "development' of the property. However, no such improvements are identified in this application. It is our fear that if this approval is granted without information regarding all of the development to occur on the property, the applicant may later claim that the improvements associated with mitigation of the geologic hazards are exempt from further Scenic Review. Since structural mitigation and additional development beyond the footprint of the residence are part of the development of the property, Scenic Review approval should not be granted in the absence of such information. Based upon the foregoing, we request that the pending application be tabled pending the satisfaction of the above requirements. UL1t.�,�w;J AUSTIN, PEIRCE & SMITH, P.C.

Mitch Haas 6'd 0 11.i RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMIVHSSIONERS OF PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO, APPROVING AN EXTENSION OF VESTED REAL PROPERTY RIGHTS FOR TIMROTH LLLP Resolution No. 0'1q -2005 RECITALS Timroth LLLP ( "Applicant ") has applied to the Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners ( "BOCC ") to consider a 15 year Extension of Vested Real Property Rights pursuant to Section 4 -140- 30 of the Land Use Code ( "Code "). 2. The parcel is located above the Silverlode /Williams Ranch Subdivision on Lower Smuggler Mountain at the top of Spruce Street; is referred to as Government Lot 33; and is more specifically described in Exhibit A. 3. The parcel contains 1.581 acres, is a nonconforming size parcel in the AFR -10 zone district, and is located outside of the Urban Growth Boundary. 4. Government Lot 33 existed prior to June 12, 1978 and has not merged with any adjacent parcels. The Applicant acquired the parcel in 1997 through a land exchange with the US Forest Service. 5. The Hearing Officer denied the 1041 hazard review and conceptual submission, pursuant to 9 Determination No. 25 -2004. The BOCC found the denial to be a taking, and remediated the taking v m pursuant to Resolution No. 006 -2005. A 3 year vested right was granted with the approval. Nom m 6. The BOCC heard this application at a duly noticed public hearing on April 13, 2005 at which time a mm O evidence and testimony were presented with respect to this application. Lo n o 7. The BOCC finds that 7 year extension of vested rights isaieappropriate, given the Applicant's m m o commitment to limit house size. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners that it does hereby approve an Extension of Vested Property Rights for Timroth LLLP. Statutory vested rights for the approval granted pursuant to Resolution No. 006 -2005 are granted pursuant to the Pitkin County Land Use Code and Colorado Statutes, subject to the exceptions set forth in Pitkin County Land Use Code, § 4 -140 and C.R.S., § 24 -68 -105.

Timroth LLLP ( "Applicant") applied to the Pitkin County Hearing Officer ( "Hearing Officer ") for 1041 Hazard Review and Conceptual Submission approval to establish a building envelope to construct a single - family residence and accessory structures. 2. The parcel is located above the Silverlode/Williams Ranch Subdivision on Lower Smuggler Mountain at the top of Spruce Street; is referred to as Government Lot 33; and is more specifically described in Exhibit A. 3. The parcel contains 1.581 acres, is a non - conforming size parcel in the AFR -10 zone district, and is located outside of the Urban Growth Boundary. Government Lot 33 existed prior to June 12, 1978 and has not merged with any adjacent parcels 4. The Hearing Officer denied the application at a duly noticed public hearing on October 19, 2004, pursuant to Determination No. 25 -2004. The Hearing Officer found that the entire parcel is encumbered by slopes in excess of 30 %, where development is prohibited pursuant to Section 3- 80-050(C) of the Land Use Code ( "Code "). 5. . The Applicant submitted a request for a takings determination pursuant to Sections 3 -290, 4 -150 and 5 -220 of the Land Use Code on November 4, 2004 to determine whether the Hearing Officer's denial of the application constitutes a taking of private property without just compensation. 6. The BOCC considered the takings request at regular meetings on November 17 and December 15, 2004, at which time further evidence and testimony were presented with respect to the taking. 7. The BOCC determined that a taking had occurred pursuant to Sections 3 -290 and 4 -150 of the Code, based on the following findings: A. There are not any areas on the property that are not encumbered by slopes in excess of 30 %; B. The proposed building envelope is the best possible location on the property for development; and C. The denial constitutes a taking of all reasonable use and economic return from the subject property. 8. The BOCC considered the remediation at a regular meeting on January 12, 2005, at which time the conditions of approval were accepted. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the BOCC that the denial of the Timroth LLLP 1041 Hazard Review and Conceptual Submission constitutes a taking pursuant to Sections 3 -290 and 4- 150 of the Pitkin County Land Use Code. 5 ©69 @9 UtJi�,l�.6 1111111nIHlllllllllllllllllllllllll�IIII 'll��lllll�ll 88:47 SILVIA DAVIS PITKIN COUNTY CO R 0.00 D 0.00 3 � - C= — � -t 41ck l / Resolution No.00 -2005 Page 2 BE TT FURTHER RESOLVED by the BOCC that it does hereby remediate the taking by granting approval, subject to the following conditions, which shall run with the land and be binding on all successors in interest: 1.

Ljor- Ie tr HAAS LAND PLANNING, LLC November 7, 2011 Pitkin County Community Development Department c/o Suzanne Wolff, Senior Planner 130 South Galena Street Aspen, CO 81611 RE: Government 33 LLC Scenic Review (Parcel ID 2737 - 071 -00 -040) Dear Suzanne: The applicant is requesting Scenic Review approval as required under BOCC Resolution 006 -2005. The 1041 approval on the subject property was granted pursuant to said Resolution and remains vested until April 13, 2012. Therefore, this application is subject to the Scenic Review standards but not the other Site Plan Review criteria of the current (2006 adopted) Pitkin County Land Use Code. The subject parcel is located immediately outside of the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). Background Government Lot 33 is a 1.581 acre parcel located above the Silverlode /Williams Ranch Subdivision on Lower Smuggler Mountain and at the top of Spruce Street. The parcel existed prior to June 12, 1978 and has not merged with any adjacent parcels. The site is a sub - standard sized parcel within Pitkin County's AR -10 Zone District. In 2004, the previous owner applied for a 1041 Environmental Hazards Review and Conceptual Submission Approval to establish a building envelope to construct a single - family residence and accessory structures. The Hearing Officer denied the application in Determination No. 25 -2004, finding that the entire parcel is encumbered by slopes in excess of 30 %. An application was then submitted requesting a takings determination to establish whether the denial constituted a taking of private property without just compensation. BOCC Resolution 006 -2005 determined that a taking had occurred, and remediated the taking by granting 1041 approval for development of a GMQS - exempt single - family home of 5,750 square feet, subject to certain conditions. A three -year vested right was granted with the approval. The previous owner then applied for an extension of the associated vested rights, and the BOCC extended the vested rights 201 N. MILL STREET, SUITE 108 • ASPEN, COLORADO • 81611 PHONE: (970) 925 -7819 • FAX: (970) 925 -7395 Govt 33 LLC Scenic Review Application November 7, 2011 for seven years, until April 13, 2012. One of the conditions of Resolution 006 -2005 stated that, prior to the submission of a building permit application, scenic overlay approval would need to be granted. In that Resolution, the BOCC found that the proposed building envelope is the best possible location on the property for development. The Proposal In order to preserve the character of Pitkin County, careful attention must be paid to the visible impacts of proposed development. Section 7 -20 -120 of the Pitkin County Land Use Code (the Code) establishes Scenic View Protection areas that are proximate to and most visible from specific roads in the County. The standards of Section 7 -20 -120 are designed to minimize the visual impact of new development and to preserve the character of all Rural Areas of the County. Since this property is visible from State Highway 82 (Main Street, Aspen), and State Highway 82 is a road specified in Section 7- 20- 120(b) of the Code, the standards of Section 7- 20- 120(d) must be followed. This review is for the development of the approved home, within the approved building envelope on Government Lot 33. RGS Architecture (RGSA) has prepared photographic simulations depicting the character of the proposed home from State Highway 82 (SH 82). As the provided materials show, this home will be earth - sheltered on three sides and tucked into the hillside, just above the Silverlode /Williams Ranch homes and the blue roofs of the Centennial Housing complex. The existing topography and vegetation do not provide an opportunity for screening, but the home will not be located on the highest or most visible portion of the site and will not project above a ridgeline. The Smuggler Mountain ridgeline is actually several hundred feet above the proposed home. There is no way to fully eliminate visibility of the proposed development from SH 82, although any visibility from SH 82 will be at a substantial distance and from limited vantage points. Any visual impact will be similar to that associated with the existing homes on surrounding lots. The plans, therefore, demonstrate an effort to adhere as closely as possible to the standards for Scenic View Protection by minimizing negative visual impacts and through the use of earth - sheltered design, and natural and earth -toned color and materials. The review criteria of Section 7- 20- 120(d) are provided below in italicized print, and each is followed by a response demonstrating compliance and /or consistency therewith, as applicable. Parcel ID 2737- 071 -00 -040 Page 2 Z Govt 33 LLC Scenic Review Application November 7. 2011 (1) The proposed development shall utilize existing topography and natural vegetation, such as ridges, hills, and existing trees, to screen buildings to the maximum extent practicable when viewed from those right -of -way listed in subsection (b) above. The existing topography and vegetation afford little opportunity for frontal screening. There are no ridges, hills or stands of trees that would provide screening for this development. That said, as the provided materials show, this home will be tucked into the hillside and earth- sheltered on three sides. The visibility of this home from SH 82 will be the same or less than that of existing homes on Smuggler and Red Mountain, which are largely obscured and /or obstructed by buildings along Main Street. (2) The proposed development shall avoid the location of structures within the Scenic View Protection Areas, and shall avoid the location of structures within any Viewplane identified in the State Highway 82 Corridor Master Plan and Down Valley Comprehensive Plan if possible. If location outside the Scenic View Protection Area and defined Viewplanes is not practicable, then the proposed development shall not be located on the highest ground or most visible portion of any site as viewed from those corridors listed in subsection (b) above. There is no way for this development to completely avoid the Scenic View Protection Area. However, this development will not be located on the highest ground or most visible portion of the site as viewed from SH 82. Accordingly, the building envelope is limited to areas below the 8,240 foot elevation (as directed and approved by the BOCC). (3) The proposed development's height and bulk shall be designed to avoid, to the maximum extent practicable, the visibility of buildings from those corridors listed in subsection (b) above. This may include, but shall not be limited to, breaking the mass of the building down into a series of smaller forms, articulation of the building fagades to avoid a wall or row effect, and staggering rooflines to avoid a long unbroken plane. Although the home will be visible from parts of SH 82, it will be at a substantial distance and will be in character with existing development patterns on Smuggler Mountain. Horizontal articulation and modulation of forms is not practicable given the narrow dimensions of the property, the setback requirements, and the steep slopes. Notwithstanding the horizontal constraints, rather than designing the building as one continuous mass, the proposed home is broken up vertically by stepping up and back into the hillside. The design takes advantage of the topography by cutting into the slope and sheltering a substantial portion of the structure below ground. The upper two floors of the Parcel ID 2737- 071 -00 -040 Page 3 I Govt 33 LLC Scenic Review Application November 7, 2011 home will be significantly set back from the lower level. This distance between the vertical rises, as well as the glass railing above the garage, the breeze de soleils that intersect the two upper levels, and the minimal profile hip gable roof, all combine to help to break up the perceived mass, bulk and height of the home. (4) The proposed structure shall be placed so it does not project above a ridgeline such that a structure silhouettes against the sky when viewed from those corridors listed in subsection (b), unless there are no alternate building sites on the lot or parcel. The proposed residence will not project above a ridgeline. There are no ridgelines affecting the subject site. The Smuggler Mountain ridgeline is several hundred feet above the subject property and the proposed home. (5) The proposed development shall be designed to complement the natural topography of the land through the use of techniques such as earth - sheltered design, the use of natural materials and coloring, the use of low- reflectance materials, or clustering of structures on the least visible portions of the site. When a building is proposed near a ridgeline, then its form (particularly its roof form) shall replicate, parallel, or complement the natural form of the ridgeline so that it appears to be an element of the natural ridgeline. The applicant intends to utilize natural materials and coloring. A substantial portion of the proposed residence will be built into the slope (earth - sheltered on three of its four sides), rendering such areas invisible from above -grade and from SH 82. (6) The proposed development shall preserve natural vegetation and avoid development within irrigated meadows, to the maximum extent practicable. The applicant plans to remove as little vegetation as practicable for the development, and simply reseed any disturbed areas with a native mix of grasses and forbs. The seed mix will be chosen in consultation with the County's Land Management Department. There are no irrigated meadows associated with or near this property. (7) The proposed development shall install utilities in locations and through procedures that minimize visual impacts to the maximum extent practicable. All utilities will be installed underground and in locations that minimize visual impacts. Parcel ID 2737 - 071 -00 -040 Page 4 y Govt 33 LLC Scenic Review Application November 7, 2011 (8) All satellite dishes in the proposed development shall be located to minimize visibility from those rights -of -way listed in subsection (b), and shall use earth tone colors and/or screening to minimize their visual impact. Any satellite dishes will be located so as to minimize visibility from SH 82, and will use earth tone colors. (9) The proposed development shall not use earth moving and berms as the primary means of compliance with these regulations, but earth moving may be utilized in conjunction with other techniques to comply with standards in this section. Where earth moving techniques are necessary, man -made forms should be undulating and natural in appearance. Due to surrounding topography and the shape/ configuration of the subject property, earth moving and /or berms do not provide a viable means of screening for the proposed home. Instead, the primary means of compliance are achieved by breaking up the mass, employing earth - sheltered design techniques, and committing to the use of earth -toned and natural exterior building materials and colors. (10) In the Rural Areas only, development shall be located so that activities and development occur in at least one of the locations specified in subsection (0 as they may apply to the particular property. This standard actually refers to subsection (e) and is addressed below. (11) The exterior of all development, except development located and designed in the form of a ranch compound, shall be built or painted with indigenous earth tone materials or colors. The exterior of a ranch compound should be built or painted with indigenous earth tone materials, or shall be painted or stained using local, traditional ranch colors, which shall include shades of red, brown, or white. Paints or stains that simulate weathered barn wood also shall be permitted. Earth tone materials and colors will be used where and to the extent possible. The ranch compound principles have no application to the subject site. (12) All roofs shall have a non - reflective color or composition. Reflective roof materials shall not be used unless the materials are treated prior to installation to eliminate reflection, with the exception of materials associated with solar or photovoltaic equipment. Parcel ID 2737- 071 -00 -040 Page 5 �l Govt 33 LLC Scenic Review Application November 7, 2011 All roofs will have a non - reflective color or composition. Roofing materials will not be reflective. (13) Lands disturbed by earth moving or berms should be revegetated using native species that are already growing on or near the site. Topsoil shall be stockpiled and placed on disturbed areas. Irrigation shall be provided to the revegetated areas if it is necessary to ensure survival of planted native species. All disturbed areas will be revegetated. Also, see the response to standard (6), above. (14) To the maximum extent practicable, roads and driveways shall be located to skirt the edge of and avoid dividing meadows and pastures and to avoid major road cuts. Roads and driveways should take advantage of the screening potential of natural topography and existing vegetation. Existing roads and driveways shall be used where practical. To enhance screening, a row of trees may be planted along the roads or driveways. To the maximum extent practicable, roads and driveways located around the edge of or in meadows shall be laid out with soft, curving edges and shall avoid straight line corridors that are incongruous with the natural setting. The driveway will remain where it is currently located. The existing driveway went through Scenic Review and received approval prior to its construction. All developments in Rural Areas are subject to additional guidelines that must be followed, pursuant to Section 7- 20- 120(e) of the Code. Said section states that, Development in Rural Areas should be located so that activities and development occur in one or a combination of the following locations as they may apply to the particular property: (1) at the edge of an open meadow or pasture; (2) behind an existing stand of vegetation; (3) behind or built into a change in natural topography; or (4) within a pasture or meadow, clustered in the form of a ranch compound, or adjacent to or integrated into an existing ranch compound. This property does not encompass any open meadows or pastures and there are no existing stands of vegetation to locate behind. No natural topographic break exists on or near the property. The home will be situated in a previously approved and vested building envelope, which was deemed the best possible location on the property for development by the BOCC in Resolution 006 -2005. The home has been designed to follow the natural contours of the site, while still complying with all other county regulations.

Karbank (hereinafter APPLICANT) AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 1. APPLICANT has submitted to COUNTY an application for Scenic Review (hereinafter, THE PROJECT). 2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that Pitkin County Ordinance No. 30 -2009 establishes a fee structure for land use applications and the payment of all processing fees is a condition precedent to a determination of application completeness. The fee structure is based on the County's policy that development shall pay, in full, the cost of development review in Pitkin County. Fees have been set to be consistent and fair to the public and to reflect the expense incurred in providing such services to the public. 3. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree that because of the size, nature or scope of the proposed project, it may not be possible at the time of application to ascertain the full extent of the costs involved in processing the application. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree fees charged for the processing of land use applications shall accumulate if an application includes more than one type of land use review. 4. COUNTY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for COUNTY stafito complete processing or present sufficient information to the Planning Commission and/or Board of County Commissioners to enable the Planning Commission and /or Board of County Commissioners to make legally required findings for project approval, unless current billings are paid in fill prior to decision. 5. Therefore, APPLICANT agrees that in consideration of the COUNTY's waiver of its right to collect full fees prior to a determination of application completeness, APPLICANT shall pay a base fee in the amount of S 1.639* which is for 5* hours of staff time, and if actual time spent by staff to process the application exceeds the average number of hours by more than 20 %, then the COUNTY will bill the APPLICANT quarterly for the additional time spent. Such periodic payments shall be made within 30 days of the billing date. APPLICANT further agrees that failure to pay such accrued costs shall be grounds for suspension of processing.

A Scenic Review application should identify all above ground structures. The most recent information clarifies this issue, and it now appears that all above ground improvements have been identified. We anticipate that final building plans will be consistent with the plans submitted for Scenic Review. A condition of approval of this application should state that if additional visible structures are identified in the building permit application, the applicant must obtain Scenic Review approval for such improvements.

Sinclair' Subject: RE Gov't Lot 33 Hi Tom. The current plan includes soil nails within the confines of the Gov't Lot 33 property only and, therefore, will need no easements. The soil nailing to the rear /north will stay well within the property itself. The hybrid micropile /soil nail walls on the east and west sides also stay within the property boundaries. Should we later be successful in obtaining easements that would accommodate pure soil nail walls on the east and /or west sides without the hybrid micropile part, then we would likely switch the plan on either or both of those two sides, but there would be no visual impacts associated as the soil nails would be below the surface. I hope I'm explaining this well enough, but I've copied Rob Sinclair (project architect) on this email so that he may shed additional light on this that he feels would be helpful, if any. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or if I can be of further help in any way. Best regards, Mitch Mitch Naas Haas Land Planning, LLC 201 M.

HIGH STREET DENVER, COLORADO 80210 Parker 303. 841 -7119 • Colorado Springs 719. 633 -5562 • Silverthorne 970 - 468 -1989 6000O1 of / t/ -2- natural slope of the site is very steep down to the west at grades up to about 50 %. There is about 15 feet of elevation difference across the proposed building area. Vegetation on the site consists ofscruboak, sagebrush, grass and weeds. Scattered cobbles and boulders were exposed on the ground surface. FIELD EXPLORATION The field exploration for the project was conducted on August 29, 2007. Two exploratory borings were drilled at the locations shown on Figure I to evaluate the subsurface conditions. The borings were advanced with 4 inch diameter continuous flight augers powered by a track - mounted CME 45 drill rig. The borings were logged by a representative ofHepworth- Pawlak Geotechnical, Inc. Samples of the subsoils were taken with a 1% inch I.D. spoon sampler. The sampler was driven into the subsoils at various depths with blows from a 140 pound hammer falling 30 inches. This test is similar to the standard penetration test described by ASTM Method D- 1586. The penetration resistance values are an indication of the relative density or consistency of the subsoils. Depths at which the samples were taken and the penetration resistance values are shown on the Logs of Exploratory Borings, Figure 2. The samples were returned to our laboratory for review by the project engineer and testing. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS Graphic logs of the subsurface conditions encountered at the site are shown on Figure 2. The subsoils consist of about 1 to 3 feet of granular fill due to the access benches overlying relatively dense, slightly silty to silty sand and gravel with cobbles and boulders to the drilled depths of 14 and 17 feet in Borings 1 and 2, respectively. Drilling in the dense granular soils with auger equipment was difficult due to the cobbles and boulders and drilling refusal was encountered in the deposit. A boring drilled nearby at the guest house encountered similar soils and no groundwater to the bottom of the boring, 40 feet. Laboratory testing performed on samples obtained from the borings included natural moisture content and gradation analyses. Results of gradation analyses performed on small diameter drive samples (minus 1' /z fraction) of the coarse granular subsoils are shown on Figure 4. Job No. 107 0287 Uu0004 -3- No free water was encountered in the borings at the time of drilling and the subsoils were moist. DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS FOUNDATIONS Considering the subsurface conditions encountered in the exploratory borings and the nature of the proposed construction, we recommend the building be founded with spread footings bearing on the natural granular soils. The design and construction criteria presented below should be observed for a spread footing foundation system. 1) Footings placed on the undisturbed natural granular soils should be. designed for an allowable bearing pressure of 4,000 psf. Eccentrically loaded footings can be designed for up to a one third increase in toe pressure provided the resultant falls within the central third of the footing section. Based on experience, we expect settlement of footings designed and constructed as discussed in this section will be about 1 inch or less. 2) The footings should have a minimum width of 16 inches for continuous walls and 2 feet for isolated pads. 3) Exterior footings and footings beneath unheated areas should be provided with adequate soil cover above their bearing elevation for frost protection. Placement of foundations at least 42 inches below exterior grade is typically used in this area. 4) Continuous foundation walls should be reinforced top and bottom to span local anomalies such as by assuming an unsupported length of at least 10 feet. Foundation walls acting as retaining structures should also be designed to resist lateral earth pressures as discussed in the "Foundation and Retaining Walls" section of this report. 5) All existing fill, topsoil and any loose or disturbed soils should be removed and the footing bearing level extended down to the relatively dense natural granular soils. Voids created by boulder removal should be backfilled with compacted sand and gravel. The exposed natural soils in footing area should then be moistened and compacted. Job No. 107 0287 CD&tech 660605 M 6) A representative of the geotechnical engineer should observe all footing excavations prior to concrete placement to evaluate bearing conditions. FOUNDATION AND RETAINING WALLS Foundation walls and retaining structures which are laterally supported and can be expected to undergo only a slight amount of deflection should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of at least 50 pcf for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Cantilevered retaining structures which are separate from the pool house and can be expected to deflect sufficiently to mobilize the full active earth pressure condition should be designed for a lateral earth pressure computed on the basis of an equivalent fluid unit weight of at least 40 pcf for backfill consisting of the on -site granular soils. Backfill should not contain vegetation, topsoil or oversized rock. All foundation and retaining structures should be designed for appropriate hydrostatic and surcharge pressures such as adjacent footings, traffic, construction materials and equipment. The pressures recommended above assume drained conditions behind the walls and a horizontal backfill surface. The buildup of water behind a wall or an upward sloping backfill surface will increase the lateral pressure imposed on a foundation wall or retaining structure. An underdrain should be provided to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup behind walls. Backfill should be placed in uniform lifts and compacted to at least 90% of the maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum Backfill in pavement and walkway areas should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density. Care should be taken not to overcompact the backfill or use large equipment near the wall, since this could cause excessive lateral pressure on the wall. Some settlement of deep foundation wall backfill should be expected, even if the material is placed correctly, and could result in distress to facilities constructed on the backfill. Compacting the wall backfill to at least 98% of the maximum standard Proctor density would help to reduce potential settlement of deep foundation wall backfill. The lateral resistance of foundation or retaining wall footings will be a combination of the sliding resistance of the footing on the foundation materials and passive earth pressure Job No. 107 0287 G&Rech 0001J06 -5- against the side of the footing. Resistance to sliding at the bottoms of the footings can be calculated based on a coefficient of friction of 0.50. Passive pressure of compacted backfill against the sides of the footings can be calculated using an equivalent fluid unit weight of 400 pcf. The coefficient of friction and passive pressure values recommended above assume ultimate soil strength. Suitable factors of safety should be included in the design to limit the strain which will occur at the ultimate strength, particularly in the case of passive resistance. Fill placed against the sides of the footings to resist lateral loads should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum FLOOR SLABS The natural on -site soils, exclusive of topsoil, are suitable to support lightly loaded slab - on- grade construction. To reduce the effects of some differential movement, floor slabs should be separated from all bearing walls and columns with expansion joints which allow unrestrained vertical movement. Floor slab control joints should be used to reduce damage due to shrinkage cracking. The requirements for joint spacing and slab reinforcement should be established by the designer based on experience and the intended slab use. A minimum 4 inch layer of free - draining gravel should be placed beneath basement level slabs to facilitate drainage. This material should consist of minus 2 inch aggregate with at least 50% retained on the No. 4 sieve and less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve. All fill materials for support of floor slabs should be compacted to at least 95% of maximum standard Proctor density at a moisture content near optimum Required fill can consist of the on -site granular soils devoid of vegetation, topsoil and oversized rock. UNDERDRAIN SYSTEM Although free water was not encountered during our exploration, it has been our experience in mountainous areas that local perched groundwater can develop during times of heavy precipitation or seasonal runoff. Frozen ground during spring runoff can create a perched condition. We recommend below -grade construction, such as retaining walls and basement areas, be protected from wetting and hydrostatic pressure buildup by an underdrain system. Job No. 107 0287 CVortech OUCJC7 The drains should consist of drainpipe placed in the bottom of the wall backfill surrounded above the invert level with free - draining granular material. The drain should be placed at each level of excavation and at least 1 foot below lowest adjacent finish grade and sloped at a minimum 1 % to a suitable gravity outlet. Free - draining granular material used in the underdrain system should contain less than 2% passing the No. 200 sieve, less than 50% passing the No. 4 sieve and have a maximum size of 2 inches. The drain gravel backfill should be at least 1 %: feet deep. SITE GRADING The risk of construction - induced slope instability at the site appears low provided cut and fill depths are limited. We understand that the cut depths for the garage level will be about 20 feet. Fills should be limited to about 8 to 10 feet deep. Embankment fills should be compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density near optimum moisture content. Prior to fill placement, the subgrade should be carefully prepared by removing all vegetation and topsoil and compacting to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density. The fill should be benched into the portions of the hillside exceeding 20% grade. Permanent unretained cut and fill slopes should be graded at 2 horizontal to 1 vertical or flatter and protected against erosion by revegetation or other means. Steeper slopes should be retained. The risk of slope instability will be increased if seepage is encountered in cuts and flatter slopes may be necessary. If seepage is encountered in permanent cuts, an investigation should be conducted to determine if the seepage will adversely affect the cut stability. This office should review site grading plans for the project prior to construction. SURFACE DRAINAGE The following drainage precautions should be observed during construction and maintained at all times after the residence has been completed: 1) Inundation of the foundation excavations and underslab areas should be avoided during construction. Job No. 107 0287 GgReCh Ouciod -7- 2) Exterior backfill should be adjusted to near optimum moisture and compacted to at least 95% of the maximum standard Proctor density in pavement and slab areas and to at least 90% of the maximum standard Proctor density in landscape areas. 3) The ground surface surrounding the exterior of the building should be sloped to drain away from the foundation in all directions. We recommend a minimum slope of 10 percent in unpaved areas and a minimum slope of 2 percent in paved areas. Free - draining wall backfill should be capped with about 2 feet of the on -site finer graded soils to reduce surface water infiltration. 4) Roof downspouts and drains should discharge well beyond the limits of all backfill.

The project site is located about three- quarters of a mile northeast of the Aspen town center, see Figure 1. The study was conducted to evaluate the geologic conditions at the project site and to assess if the geology could present constraints and risks to the proposed two buildings. The study was performed according to our April 25, 2007 proposal to Warren Lichtenstein. A field reconnaissance of the two parcels and vicinity was made on May 1, 2007 to observe and map the geology. In addition, we have reviewed published regional geology studies, looked at aerial photographs and reviewed our previous studies in the area. Based on thus information, an assessment of the potential influence of the geology on the two buildings was made. This report summarizes our findings and presents our conclusions and recommendations. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The locations of the two buildings and driveway are presented on Figure 5. Architectural plans available at the time of this study show that the pool house will be a three level building with parking and a swimming pool on the lower level and office, recreational and living facilities on the second and third levels. The building will have a footprint area of about 4,600 square feet and the building will be stepped up the hillside. The cut required for the structure will have a maximum height of about 37 feet in two steps. The guest house with also be a three level building. The buildings footprint will cover about 5, 700 square feet. The basement level will have a walkout on the west. The driveway, parking and tum -a -round area on the north side of the building will be at the grade of the main level. A 30 foot high retaining wall will be built along the east side of the building and on the east and north side of the parking and turn-a -round area. Fill will be required for the basement walkout on the west side of the building. Job No. 107 0280 G9 teCh uuLJ33 -2- SITE CONDITIONS The project site is located on the northern side of the Roaring Fork River valley to the south of where Hunter Creek flows into the valley. see Figure 1. The general topography in the project area is presented on Figure 3. Detailed topography at the two building sites is presented on Figure 5. The valley side at the project site is very steep, about 50 percent and faces nearly due west. An old, excavated bench has been cut into the hillside just upslope of the guest house site. This bench appears to be a drill pad of a probable mineral exploration boring. Major drainages do not cross through the two building sites but a small ephemeral drainage with a alluvial fan at its mouth crosses between the two building sites. At the time of this study, the driveway had been rough graded to the north side of the ephemeral drainage channel. Pioneer roads had been constructed to the three geotechnical boring at the guest house site. Vegetation on the hillside in the project area is oak brush and other brush. The main Lichtenstein residence, which was under construction at the time of this study, is located at the switch -back at the north end of the driveway leading to the two building sites. Other residences are located on nearby properties to the west of the project site. REGIONAL GEOLOGIC SETTING The project site is located in the west central part Southern Rocky Mountains to the west of the Rio Grande rift, see Figure 2. The site is on the western side of the north- trending Sawatch Range uplift, a first -order geologic structure that developed during the Laramide orogeny about 40 to 89 million years ago. Precambrian-age crystalline rocks that form the core of the uplift crop out about one -half mile to the east of the project site. West dipping, Paleozoic -age sedimentary rocks are present in the project area, see Figure 3. Older Paleozoic rocks (Pzo) lie to the southeast of the northeast - trending, Silver fault and include the Sawatch Quartzite, Peerless Formation, Manitou Dolomite, Chaffee Formation and Leadville Limestone in ascending stratigraphic order. Younger Paleozoic rocks (Pzy) lie to the northwest of the Silver fault and include the Belden, Gothic and Maroon Formations in ascending stratigraphic order. The Silver fault is a bedding plane fault that is downthrown on its west side. The fault and the Paleozoic sedimentary rocks Job No. 1070280 - - C�tech uJv�it�4 -3- dip steeply to the west. Bedding in the project area strike northeast parallel to the Silver fault and dips are in the range of 40 to 70 degrees to the northwest (Bryant, 1971). The Roaring Fork and Hunter Creek valleys in the project area were occupied by valley glaciers several times during the middle and late Pleistocene. Lateral moraines and colluvium (Qc) derived from the eroded moraines cover the Paleozoic rocks in the project area and rock outcrops are not present, see Figure 3. Older moraines (Qmbo) probably associated with an older Bull Lake glaciation underlie the rolling upland near the top of Smuggler Mountain to the east of the project site. Younger moraines (Qmby) probably associated with a younger Bull Lake glaciation are present on the lower valley side to the south of the project site. The Bull Lake moraines were probably deposited between about 132 and 302 thousand years ago. Glacial oulwash (Qopo) probably associated with the older of two late Pleistocene -age Pinedale glaciations forms terraces along northeast side of the Roaring Fork River valley in the southwestern part of the project area. This outwash was probably deposited about 65 to 79 thousand years ago. Small, coalescing alluvial fans (Qf) have developed in post - glacial times along the lower valley sides in the project area. These fans are geologically young, less than 15,000 years old, and many parts of the fans are active. The active part of the fans and the ephemeral channels above the fan heads are potential sites for future debris flows and floods. The Silver fault and other faults in the Aspen area are geologically old and are not considered capable of generating large earthquakes. The closest geologically young, post - glacial faults, considered capable of generating large earthquakes are in the Rio Grande rift to the east, see Figure 2. Post - glacial faults are present in the Williams Fork Mountains Fault Zone (Q50) about 58 miles to the northeast and in the southern section of the Sawatch Fault Zone (Q56b) about 37 miles to the southeast. At these distances, large earthquakes on tltese two fault zones should not produce strong ground shaking at the project site that is greater than that considered by the U. S. Geological Survey National Hazard Map (Frankel and Others, 2002). 106 No. 107 0280 tech i7ilcA5_ -4- UNDERGROUND MINE WORKINGS Extensive underground mine workings associated with mining of silver, lead and zinc ores are present along the northeast -trend of the Silver fault. The main mine shafts and tunnel portals in the project area are shown on Figure 3. A map of the underground mine working compiled by Rohlfing (1948) is presented on Figure 4. The underground mining started about 1880, peaked around 1890 and by the early 1930's mining had substantially declined with very little mining since 1952. The workings at the Free Silver Level 11 are located just to the southeast of the guest house site at a depth of about 1,230 feet. At this depth caving in the mine workings should not present a significant ground subsidence risk to the guest house or the pool house. PROJECT SITE GEOLOGY The main geologic features at the project site are shown on Figure 5. This map and the project area geology map (Figure 3) are based on our field observations and are modifications of the regional geology map by Bryant (1971). SURFICIAL SOIL DEPOSITS The hillside at the pool house and guest house sites is underlain by colluvium (Qc) derived mostly from erosion of the middle Pleistocene -age, Bull Lake moraines. The colluvium consists of gravel to boulder -size rocks in a silty to clayey sand matrix. The rocks are typically rounded and boulders of about 6 to 8 feet in size are common. The three geotechnical borings drilled by Hepworth - Pawlak (2007) to date at the guest house site indicate that the colluvium in this area is greater than 4 to 17 feet deep. The ephemeral stream channel that crosses between the pool house and guest house sites transitions to a geologically young alluvial fan (Qf). The stream channel and fan are potential sites of infrequent debris flows and floods. The flows and floods would be triggered by unusually intense thunderstorms or rapid melting of an unusually heavy snowpack. Job No. 107 0280 Gec�teCh OucJ66 -5- FORMATION ROCK The regional geologic map by Bryant (1971) indicates that the colluvium at the project site is probably underlain by the Pennsylvanian-age Gothic Formation. It is predominantly a gray, tan and brown sandstone, siltstone, shale and limestone. The depth to formation rock at the pool house and guest house sites is not ]mown based on the geotechnical borings drilled to date (Hepworth- Pawlak Geotechnical, 2007). GROUNDWATER The geotechnical borings drilled at the project site to date have not encountered groundwater. These borings are between 4 and 17 feet deep. Sounding of the probable mineral exploration boring to the southeast of the guest house indicates that this boring is greater than 200 feet deep with groundwater at a depth of 182 feet. The boring locations are shown on Figure 5. GEOLOGIC SITE ASSESSMENT There are several conditions of a geologic nature that should be considered as project planning and design proceeds. Geologic conditions that should be considered, their potential risks, and mitigations to reduce the risks are discussed below. CONSTRUCTION RELATED SLOPE INSTABILTY The hillside at the pool house and guest house sites is steep and relatively deep cuts will be needed to construct the two buildings. There is a relatively high risk of construction related slope instability if the grading for the two buildings and the turn-a -round and parking area are not properly engineered. Also, dislodged boulders in the construction excavations could develop into rockfalls that could potentially damage downslope buildings. Precautions during excavation at the two buildings should be taken to control potential rockfall. Geoteclmical recommendations for site grading, retaining walls and slope reinforcement will be presented in our geotechnical engineering reports for the pool house and guest house. These studies are in progress at this time. Job No. 107 0260 glech U��J'vT � as PROSPECT PIT A 25 foot diameter, mineral prospect pit is located near the western side of the guest house, see Figure 5. The pit is currently about 2 to 6 feet deep but the pit walls have caved and the original depth of the pit can not be determined from surface observations. The caved material in the pit is not suitable for building foundation support and it should be removed and replaced with compacted backfill during construction. If the caved material is too deep to be effectively removed with earth excavating equipment such as a large backhoe, then compaction grouting could be required. 11100IN 11 13 1Z�Z�Z. The ephemeral drainage channel between the pool house and guest house is subject to infrequent debris flows and floods that could potentially damage the driveway. These infrequent flows will contain boulders and organic debris that will likely plug culverts sized to pass clear water floods. One possible mitigation would be a dip in the driveway where it crosses the channel. The driveway fill at the channel crossing will need to be stabilized to prevent erosion. A grouted rip -rap faced fill using the on -site boulders is one possible method for constructing a stabilized fill. ROCKFALL Erosion over time on the steep hillside above the pool house and guest house has the potential for producing rockfalls by undermining and dislodging the boulders in the colluvium. The likelihood that a future rockfall will hit the two buildings during a reasonable exposure time for the building, in our opinion, is low. However, if a rockfall were to hit the buildings there is a potential for severe building damage and there is also safety concerns for occupants of the buildings. If this low risk is not acceptable then rockfall mitigation should be implemented to reduce the potential risks. Because of the steep hillside, rockfall mitigation options will be limited. Woven wire cable, catching nets located upslope of the two buildings should be a feasible mitigation measure. Site specific rockfall dynamic modeling will be needed to assess the feasibility UUCJ08 Job No. 1070280 ~6e Aech -7- of rockfalI mitigation and to develop design parameters. The existing hillside bench upslope of the guest house is a good site for the catching net in that area. Excavation of a bench above the pool house will be needed to provide a construction site for a catching net in that area. SNOW AVALANCHE Regional snow avalanche hazard mapping shows that the pool house and guest house site are not in high or moderate snow avalanche hazard zones (Mears, 1979). The hillsides above the two building sites are steep enough to produce small avalanches under some snowpack conditions. However, because of their west - facing aspect these slopes seldom, if ever, have snowpack conditions that could produce avalanches (Bryant, 1972). In our opinion, the snow avalanche risk to the two buildings is acceptable without mitigation. The rocicfall catching nets, if installed, would further decrease the very low risk of snow avalanche. EARTHQUAKE CONSIDERATIONS Historic earthquakes within 150 miles of the project site have typically been moderately strong with magnitudes less than M 5.5 and maximum Modified Mercalli Intensities less than VI, see Figure 2. The largest historic earthquake in the project region occurred in 1882. It was located in the northern Front Range and had a estimated magnitude of about M 6.2 and a maximum intensity of VII. Historic ground shaking at the project site associated with the 1882 and the other larger historic earthquakes in the region does not appear to have exceeded Modified Mercalli Intensity VI (Kirkham and Rogers, 1985). Modified Mercalli Intensity VI ground shaking should be expected during a reasonable exposure time for the project structures, but the probability of stronger ground shaking is low. Intensity VI ground shaking is felt by most people and causes general alarm, but results in negligible damage to structures of good design and construction. The pool house and guest house should be designed to withstand moderately strong ground shaking with little or no damage and not to collapse under stronger ground shaking. The U. S. Geological Survey 2002 National Seismic Hazard Map indicates that Job No. 107 0280 _ Hptech UUuJU%' -8- a peak ground acceleration of 0.068 has a 10% exceedence probability for a 50 year exposure time and a peak ground acceleration of 0.208 has a 2% exceedence probability for a 50 year exposure time at the project site (Frank] and Others, 2002). This corresponds to a statistical recurrence time of about 500 years and 2,500 years, respectively. The probabilistic site accelerations given above are for firm rock sites with shear wave velocities of 2,500 fps in the upper 100 feet. The pool house and guest house site should be considered 2003 International Building Code, Seismic Class D sites unless shallow bedrock is encountered or site specific shear wave measurements show otherwise. LD41TATIONS This study was conducted according to generally accepted engineering geology principles and practices in this area, at this time. We make no warranty either express or implied.

Additional study will be deeded to evaluate the feasibility and design of rockfall mitigation if you decided to implement rockfall mitigation.
