THRU: Cindy Houb``enn,,�Community Development Director
FROM: Lance Clarkl ssistant Director
RE: Cathcart Request to Remove Employee Dwelling Unit Deed Restriction and Substitute a
Caretaker Dwelling Unit Deed Restriction
REQUEST: The Applicant requests approval to remove the Employee Dwelling Unit ("EDU") deed
restriction on an existing accessory dwelling unit and replace it with a Caretaker Dwelling Unit ("CDU")
deed restriction.
APPLICANT/OWNER: Scotty and Pam Cathcart
LOCATION: 90 Sagebrush Lane, Brush Creek Village
ZONING/LOT SIZE: The lot is 2.7 acres, and is non -conforming in the AR -10 zone district.
BACKGROUND: The BOCC originally approved the EDU on the property in 1994. The Applicants
had applied for a CDU status on an existing attached accessory dwelling unit. The unit had been built
without benefit of building permits, and it can be seen from the attached minutes of the 1994 BOCC
meeting that the Board felt that the fact that the unit had been built without permit warranted a more
"complete" deed restriction.
The Applicants obtained the proper permits, recorded the EDU deed restriction, and were granted a
Certificate of Occupancy for the EDU. The unit has been occupied as an EDU for 20 years.
STAFF COMMENTS: The owners have indicated that changes in their family needs over time have led
them to request that the status of the accessory unit be changed from an EDU to a CDU.
The Land Use Code no longer includes an EDU as an allowed use.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the BOCC adopt a motion "to approve the Cathcart
request to remove the EDU deed restriction and substitute a CDU deed restriction, subject to the attached
Resolution."

Attn: Lance Clark, Planner
Re: Scotty and Pam Cathcart
90 Sagebrush Lane
Aspen, CO 81611
The intention of this letter is to explain the purpose of our request to amend the development
permit on the above referenced property. We are asking for a status change from the present,
EDU to an ADU.
A little history... We built and moved into our house in 2003 and at that time the attached unit
was unfinished. Our intention was to finish it as we could, apply for legal status and rent it out to
local, working people. Friends of ours were losing their live in nanny as she had decided to live
with her boyfriend and they wanted a place of their own. They, we knew, would be the perfect
tenants for us because our two children already knew the nanny (as our kids played together
with our friends' children) and the couple agreed that they would be willing to help us with our
kids occasionally too. They were in a hurry to move in so we decided to quickly finish the unit
and apply for legal status with the county later as we knew the permitting process could be
lengthy and we'd lose the renters that we wanted. In other words we "put the cart before the
horse" so to speak. To make a long story short, the BCCC were unhappy with us for not
following the proper procedure and we were "penalized" by giving the unit EDU status.
For the past 21 years the EDU status has never been a problem since our intention for the very
beginning was to rent, as I said earlier, to local, working people. The fact that the rental price is
controlled hasn't mattered at all because we usually charged less that what was allowed
anyway. The reason we are requesting a status change at this time has to do with Scotty's
health. Four years ago he had a kidney transplant and even though the surgery was deemed
successful, clearly his overall health has been deteriorating ever since making it more and more
difficult for him to work in his field; electrical contracting. Consequently, meeting our financial
obligations has become quite difficult. We have had our house on the market for the past three
summers with very little interest. The time has come that we feel we need to occupy the rental
unit ourselves and rent the main house until such time as it sells. In addition, lifting the EDU
status might make the home more attractive to a potential buyer.
Please let us know if you have any questions about the above information.
Thanks you for your consideration.

CATHCART EMPLOYEE DWELLING //UNIT
Resolution No. 94-./ "g-4
RECITALS
1. Scotty and Pam Cathcart, hereinafter "Applicants", have
applied to the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County,
Colorado, hereinafter "Board", for approval of a caretaker
dwelling unit pursuant to Section 3-1511 of the Land Use Code.
2. The Applicant's lot is zoned AFR-10 and is approximately
2.7 acres in size.
3. Said parcel is located at 0090 Sage Brush Lane, Snowmass
Village, legally described as Lot 5, Block 3, of the Brush
Creek Village Subdivision.
4. The Applicants propose to deed restrict the caretaker
dwelling unit pursuant to Section 3-1511(4) of the Land Use
Code.
5. The Board heard this application at a regularly scheduled
meeting on July 12, 1994, at which time evidence and testimony
was presented with respect to this application.
6. The Board found that the Cathcarts had constructed and
rented this unit without the benefit of County approvals and
as a consequence, the Board required that an employee deed
restriction be applied to the rental unit, pursuant to Section
3-1510 of the Code. The Board determined that this is an
appropriate variation of the EDU requirements (1500 sq.ft.
minimum livable area), given the size of the lot and the

rectified to the satisfaction of the Chief Building official
within 90 days of the initial inspection.
2. The Applicant shall record a employee unit deed restriction
on the existing residence pursuant to Section 3-1510 of the
Code. The Applicant shall record the deed restriction within
30 days of final approval by the Building Department.
3. The Applicant shall pay double Zoning Plan Check and double
Building Permit fees, prior to final approval by the Building
Department.
4. The Applicant shall comply with all material representations
made in the application and in the public meeting.

Ireland moved approval of the Rubey Caretaker Dwelling Unit. With
a second by True, the motion passed unanimously.
RESOLUTION GRANTING APPROVAL TO THE CATHCART CARETAKER DWELLING
UNIT - MOTION TO APPROVE AS AMENDED -
True said he would be abstaining from discussion and action on this
matter necause o2 his special relationship with the Cathcarts.
Rick_ Magill introduced this item as an application, submitted by
Scotty and Pam Cathcart to request approval of a caretaker dwelling
unit to be located within the existing single family residence at
0090 Sage Brush Lane, Brush Creek Village Subdivision. The
applicants wish to convert approximately 600 square feet of an area
above an attached garage to a caretaker unit. The total floor area
for the residence is 3,500 square feet, including the 600 square
feet to be converted to the caretaker unit.
Magill submitted a letter receivsd by the Planning Office on July
8, 1994. He said t`iis letter clearly indicates that the caretaker 4
unit has indeed been built and has been occupied since May 1, 1994.
A copy of this letter is made a part of this record as BMIBIT "A".
He said in the memorandum, staff recommended approval of the
application, but he would suggest that it is now up to the Board's
discretion on how to proceed. But staff would suggest that the
bandit unit type conditions be imposed, i.e., the 30 day inspection
by the building department and giving them 90 days to rectify any
UBC violations and tying the deed restriction to a certain amount
of time which is typically 30 days. The other option would be to
remove the tenants that are currently there and then remove the 1
kitchen an reapply under the same section of the land use code.
Magill said the only other issue that staff has been made aware of
that is that of a water line easement dispute with the adjacent
property owner;. He referred to a letter from the Brush Creek
Metropolitan District, which would seem to indicate that they have
adequate water to serve the unit. A copy of this letter is made a
part of this record as EXHIBIT 11899.
Glenn Horn, representing the applicant, said the applicants came
to him for his advise on this matter and what they should do about
it. And he advised them that he thought the best thing to do would
be to write a letter to the Planning Office and the County
Commissioners advising them about the entire situation regarding
this unit. He said Scotty misjudged the amount of time that would
be necessary to get approval for a caretaker unit in this space.
The space already existed in his house and he and his wife had made
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 3 JULY 121 1994
OU -0000
a commitment: to Lesa Miller and Terrance McGuire, the qualified
employees who are living in the unit. there is no doubt that the
work that they did was done without permits and not legal. They
did it so they could honor their commitme,it to Terrance and Lesa
to putting in that unit, and they know that they have not done the
right thing and therefore, they are trying to go through the
process now to get all the leaal land use and building permit
approvals.
Ireland advised the applicants that their actions puts the Board
in a very difficult situation. He said he thought the community
was becoming familiar with people building something and then
applying for the permits, and the public outrage that this causes.
He referred to instances such as Wilk Wilkinson's and Peter c-+•ber's
illegal structures. He told the Cathcarts that this puts the Board
in a difficult position of not only having to impose wasteful
punishment on the them, but it puts the Board into a position where
they have to inflict harm on Lesa Miller and Terrance McGuire, who
are hostages to the oversight.
Mr. Cathcart explained that he realized there was an opportunity
to apply for a permit before he left for Central America this
March. However, he had a lot going on in his mind related to this
trip and he just overlooked the permitting process.
Tuite commented that he is concerned about approving this because
it is inviting precedent by the Board, but we are trying to house 0
employees, He said he would like to hear from the applicant what
they are renting the unit for and what kind of terms are involved. t
Mrs. Cathcart replied that they are renting the unit for $700 a
month with a third of the electric bill, and a month to month
lease. The tenants do some child care for them, but they
compensate them for that.
Child advised the Cathcarts that when they build something without
a permit they are also putting people at risk if there is faulty
wiring or something of that nature. That is one reason the whole
caretaker unit ordinance came to be because there were people at
risk and the Board wanted to make sure that situation dial not exist
anymore.
Child opened the hearing to public comment.
Sezanne and Stan Tener, adjoining neighbors commented that the
Cathcart's water line is trespassing across their property and they
do not think the Board should approve a caretaker unit when the
water is illegal in the first place. They said that Mr. Cathcart
has consistently violated rules since he has been their neighbor
and they are moving into litigation with him with regard to the
water line issue. With respect to the caretaker unit, Mrs. Tener
said there is a need for housing under the rules, but the Cathcarts
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 4 JULY 121 1994
000010
have not followed the rules. She said they applied for a caretaker
unit and it took them over eight months to get through the
permitting process, inspections, etc.
Tim Whitsitt, County Attorney, addressed the water line issue by
saying that it is clear that the Cathcarts are in a snbdivision
that has an adequate water supply and they may have put their water
line in the wrong place, but that is not an issue that is pertinent
to whether or not they are going to have an employee unit in place.
A r--,ident of the Brush Creek Village Subdivision asked if a person;
in Brush Creek who is building a new home, applies for a caretaker
dwelling unit at the same time as they apply for a permit on the
home, if it was apt to be approved?
Whitsitt _-esponded that there is no different standard for review
if you c --.ie in having already built the house and asking to add a
caretake-_ unit as opposed to coming in to build a house and
caretake_ unit. it would be the same standard of review and the
same iss-2s involved.
There be -ng no further comment, Child closed the public comment
section cf the hearing and brought the matter back to the Board for
a decision.
Whitsitt suggested that the Board make payment of the building and
planning fees a requirement or a condition of granting of this.
He noted that the building code requires that people who go ahead
and build without the I.ermit, are assessed double fees and there
are also planning department fees.
Suzanne Konchan commented for the benefit of the applicant, that
the land use code fees in the Planning Office state that for
applications proposed for after the fact approvals, have an
additional $300 charge added in addition to whatever are etandard.
A discussion ensued with regard to a caretaker unit versus an
employee dwelling unit.
Konchan explair..1 that under the County's Land Use Code, an
employee dwelling unit has a more restrictive deed restriction than
the caretaker unit under that provision in that it requires the
unit to be rented rather than making the rental voluntary. Also,
it caps the rental price at no greater than the Category III rental
restrictions in place under the housing guidelines.
Child said given the facts under this case, it would be his
tendency to approve it, but approve it as a employee dwelling unit
ratner than a caretaker dwelling unit. He thinks tha Board does
have this authority. He thinks to remove a unit once it has been
built is something that is bard for im to do.

Ireland said he c,n not approve the application as appl'ed for.
He simply cannot have pecrle blowing off the rules and regulations
when they have every opportunity and ability to know those
regulations and to comply with them. He chinks maybe converting
it into an EDL' and letting the tenants stay in it warrants some
consideration.
Tuite said he wou h -i like to hear from the applicant about
converting it into u,, employee dwelling unit.
Mr. Cathcart commented that the reason they are renting the unit
for $700 a month is because they need the income; that the only
concern he has is that he can still rent it for that amount.
Glenn Horn asked if the Board were apt to go with an employee
dwelling unit rather than a caretaker unit, that a finding be made
to address the issue of nonconforming. He said this is a sub-
standard size lot, and the code says a caretaker dwelling unit, but
when it comes to an employee dwelling unit, it dictates that they
be on lots that are of a standard size in the zone. So he would
not want to place Pam and Scotty in a situation where they have a
sub -standard size lot and also, a nonconforming use because of the
fact that it is an employee dwelling unit instead of a caretaker
dwelling unit.
Whitsitt addressed the issue by saying that he thinks the finding
can be male because the lot is in a platted subdivision.
Horn suggested that the finding be that because the unit is less
than 700 square feet in size and to qualify as an employee dwelling
unit, and to necessitate a lot that is standard size, it: would have
to be 700 square feet.
whitsitt said that he thinks these findings can be made; given the
size of the lot and given the late application for approvals.
Child asked the applicants if they understood the provisions of an
employee dwelling unit.
Cathcart said he understands everything, but what is hard is the
amount of rental they can charge.
Tuite moved that based upon the findings as discussed here, be
Mould approve an employee dwelling unit for this application,
specifically not a caretaker dwelling unit because of the
discussion and the presentation that we have had. with the
applicant paying the penalties and the additional fees as
discussed. And to direct the planning staff to mane a finding with
respect to the nonco!,,:)rmity., With a second by Ireland, the motion
passed unanimously.

CARETAKER DWELLING UNIT: According to Section 4-30-50(e)(1), CDU as Permitted
Accessory Use, in the RS -160, RS -35, RS -30, RS -20, AR -10, AR -2, R-30, R015, R -15A and R-6
zone districts one CDU shall be a permitted accessory use provided that:
1. It is attached to a single-family home (the principal dwelling).
2. The caretaker dwelling unit shall not exceed 1000 net livable square feet on lots or parcels
that are 30,000 square feet or greater in lot area, and 700 net livable square feet on lots or
parcels that are less than 30,000 square feet in lot area.
3. The floor area of the caretaker unit shall be included in the total allowed floor area for the
lot or parcel of land.
4. Two off-street parking spaces shall be provided for each caretaker dwelling unit.
The applicant shall, by deed restriction or other permanent commitment running with the
land, guarantee that the caretaker unit:
a. shall not be required to be rented;
b. shall not be sold or otherwise conveyed or separated from the original parcel
regardless of the ultimate form of ownership of the caretaker unit;
c. shall be limited to occupancy by not more than two adults and related children, who
qualify as (and have been found by the Housing Authority to be) employees of the
community under such guidelines as may be from time to time established, or by
members of the owner's immediate family even though they may not qualify as
employees of the community;
d. shall be rented for terms not less than six months if rented.
6. The caretaker dwelling unit restriction may be removed by the property owner upon
approval of the Community Development Director, subject to the requirement that the
dwelling is removed or modified. If modified, the remaining improvements must no longer
be capable of occupancy as a dwelling unit and must meet otherwise applicable Code
requirements.
7. The provisions of this regulation are for the purpose of providing a voluntary caretaker
dwelling unit on a legally created lot or parcel in the County. Any unit approved under this
provision shall not be used for mitigation of employee housing requirements as established
elsewhere in the Land Use Code.
Section 4-30-50(e)(2)(c) allows a caretaker dwelling unit, as a special review, to be detached
from the principal single-family dwelling on the lot or parcel.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: There is not a requirement to have a fully deed -restricted
employee dwelling unit on this property; therefore, APCHA recommends approval to record a
caretaker dwelling unit deed restriction to supersede the deed restriction recorded at Reception No.
374438, as long as the unit meets the following criteria:
1. Conditions 1 through 5 stated above in the CDU section are met.
2. The kitchen contains at a minimum a two-bumer stove with oven, standard sink, and a
refrigerator plus freezer. The oven must be able to bake and broil and be at least 5 cubic

Re: Scotty and Pam Cathcart
90 Sagebrush Lane
Aspen, CO 81611
The intention of this letter is to explain the purpose of our request to amend the development
permit on the above referenced property. We are asking for a status change from the present,
EDU to an ADU.
A little history... We built and moved into our house in 2003 and at that time the attached unit
was unfinished. Our intention was to finish it as we could, apply for legal status and rent it out to
local, working people. Friends of ours were losing their live in nanny as she had decided to live
with her boyfriend and they wanted a place of their own. They, we knew, would be the perfect
tenants for us because our two children already knew the nanny (as our kids played together
with our friends' children) and the couple agreed that they would be willing to help us with our
kids occasionally too. They were in a hurry to move in so we decided to quickly finish the unit
and apply for legal status with the county later as we knew the permitting process could be
lengthy and we'd lose the renters that we wanted. In other words we "put the cart before the
horse" so to speak. To make a long story short, the BCCC were unhappy with us for not
following the proper procedure and we were "penalized" by giving the unit EDU status.
For the past 21 years the EDU status has never been a problem since our intention for the very
beginning was to rent, as I said earlier, to local, working people. The fact that the rental price is
controlled hasn't mattered at all because we usually charged less that what was allowed
anyway. The reason we are requesting a status change at this time has to do with Scotty's
health. Four years ago he had a kidney transplant and even though the surgery was deemed
successful, clearly his overall health has been deteriorating ever since making it more and more
difficult for him to work in his field; electrical contracting. Consequently, meeting our financial
obligations has become quite difficult. We have had our house on the market for the past three
summers with very little interest. The time has come that we feel we need to occupy the rental
unit ourselves and rent the main house until such time as it sells. In addition, lifting the EDU
status might make the home more attractive to a potential buyer.
Please let us know if you have any questions about the above information.
Thanks you for your consideration.

AGREEMENT FOR PAYMENT OF LAND USE APPLICATION FEES
PITKIN COUNTY (hereinafter "COUNTY") and 7 c
(hereinafter "APPLICANT") AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
APPLICANT has submitted to COUNTY an application for
(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 the 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.
4. APPLICANT and COUNTY agree that fees charged for the processing of land use applications shall
accumulate if an application includes more than one type of land use review.
5. COUNTY and APPLICANT further agree that it is impracticable for COUNTY staff to 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 full prior to decision.
6. 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 $
which is based on_ 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.

Resolution No. 94- Ia G
RECITALS
1. Scotty and Pam Cathcart, hereinafter "Applicants", have
applied to the Board of County Commissioners of Pitkin County,
Colorado, hereinafter "Board", for approval of a caretaker
dwelling unit pursuant to Section 3-1511 of the Land Use Code.
2. The Applicant's lot is zoned AFR-10 and is approximately
2.7 acres in size.
3. Said parcel is located at 0090 Sage Brush Lane, Snowmass
Village, legally described as Lot 5, Block 3, of the Brush
Creek Village Subdivision.
4. The Applicants propose to deed restrict the caretaker
dwelling unit pursuant to Section 3-1511(4) of the Land Use
Code.
5. The Board heard this application at a regularly scheduled
meeting on July 12, 1994, at which time evidence and testimony
was presented with respect to this application.
6. The Board found that the Cathcarts had constructed and
rented this unit without the benefit of County approvals and
as a consequence, the Board required that an employee deed
restriction be applied to the rental unit, pursuant to Section
3-1510 of the Code. The Board determined that this is an
appropriate variation of the EDU requirements (1500 sq.ft.
minimum livable area), given the size of the lot and the
ui�t�r703 �.

7. The Board also found that the Applicants shall pay double
Zoning Plan Check and double Building Permit fees.

criteria established in Section 3-1510 of the Land Use Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board that it does
hereby grant approval to the Cathcart Employee Dwelling Unit
application subject to the following conditions:
1. Within 30 days of approval by the Board of County
Commissioners, the Applicant shall request an inspection of

compliance issues are identified, said issues shall be
rectified to the satisfaction of the Chief Building Official
within 90 days of the initial inspection.
2. The Applicant shall record a employee unit deed restriction
on the existing residence pursuant to Section 3-1510 of the
Code. The Applicant shall record the deed restriction within
30 days of final approval by the Building Department.
3. The Applicant shall pay double Zoning Plan Check and double
Building Permit fees, prior to final approval by the Building
Department.
4. The Applicant shall comply with all material representations
made in the application and in the public meeting.

I copied the Certificate of Occupancy for the EDU and added it to your paper file. My only comment is that the
Deed Restriction for the CDU not be recorded until the EDU restriction is lifted from the property. APCHA may do
this in one document, but the idea is to not let the EDU restriction linger. (I know it's what the applicant wants, but
it's what we want too.)

RE UEST: The applicant is seeking approval to convert the approved, fully deed -restricted

LOT SIZE:
SUMMARY:
Scotty and Pam Cathcart
Scotty and Pam Cathcart
90 Sagebrush Lane
-11=1I
2.7 acres
CARETAKER DWELLING UNIT: According to Section 4-30-50(e)(1), CDU as Permitted
Accessory Use, in the RS -160, RS -35, RS -30, RS -20, AR -10, AR -2, R-30, R015, R -15A and R-6
zone districts one CDU shall be a permitted accessory use provided that:
1. It is attached to a single-family home (the principal dwelling).
2. The caretaker dwelling unit shall not exceed 1000 net livable square feet on lots or parcels
that are 30,000 square feet or greater in lot area, and 700 net livable square feet on lots or
parcels that are less than 30,000 square feet in lot area.
3. The floor area of the caretaker unit shall be included in the total allowed floor area for the
lot or parcel of land.
4. Two off-street parking spaces shall be provided for each caretaker dwelling unit.
The applicant shall, by deed restriction or other permanent commitment running with the
land, guarantee that the caretaker unit:
a. shall not be required to be rented;
b. shall not be sold or otherwise conveyed or separated from the original parcel
regardless of the ultimate form of ownership of the caretaker unit;
c. shall be limited to occupancy by not more than two adults and related children, who
qualify as (and have been found by the Housing Authority to be) employees of the
community under such guidelines as may be from time to time established, or by
members of the owner's immediate family even though they may not qualify as
employees of the community;
d. shall be rented for terns not less than six months if rented.
6. The caretaker dwelling unit restriction may be removed by the property owner upon
approval of the Community Development Director, subject to the requirement that the
dwelling is removed or modified. If modified, the remaining improvements must no longer
be capable of occupancy as a dwelling unit and must meet otherwise applicable Code
requirements.
7. The provisions of this regulation are for the purpose of providing a voluntary caretaker
dwelling unit on a legally created lot or parcel in the County. Any unit approved under this
provision shall not be used for mitigation of employee housing requirements as established
elsewhere in the Land Use Code.
Section 4-30-50(e)(2)(c) allows a caretaker dwelling unit, as a special review, to be detached
from the principal single-family dwelling on the lot or parcel.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: There is not a requirement to have a fully deed -restricted
employee dwelling unit on this property; therefore, APCHA recommends approval to record a
caretaker dwelling unit deed restriction to supersede the deed restriction recorded at Reception No.
374438, as long as the unit meets the following criteria:
1. Conditions I through 5 stated above in the CDU section are met.
2. The kitchen contains at a minimum a two -burner stove with oven, standard sink, and a
refrigerator plus freezer. The oven must be able to bake and broil and be at least 5 cubic
feet; the sink must measure at least 14"WX16"DX5.25"H; refrigerator must be at least 5.3
cubic feet and include at least a .73 cubic foot freezer.
3. A caretaker dwelling unit deed restriction shall be recorded prior to building permit; the
CDU deed restriction shall be provided by APCHA, superseding the deed restriction
recorded at Reception No. 374438.
