ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
OF PITHIN COUNTY, COLORADO, APPROVING THE GOLDEN SPIRIT TRIANGLE
LLC MINOR AMENDMENT TO A DEVELOPMENT PERMIT
Administrative Decision No. c)C9_ -2015
RECITALS
Golden Spirit Triangle, LLC (hereafter "Applicant"), has applied to the Community Development
Director of Pitkin County, ("Director"), for a Minor Amendment to a Development Permit to amend
Administrative Decision No. 25-2014, specifically condition #5 that requires demolition of all
structures within the 50' of the mean high water mark of Conundrum Creek and site restoration by
September 15'x, 2014. The Applicant proposes to extend this date for demolition to September 30',
2015.
2. The parcel is zoned AR -10 PUD and contains approximately 1.8 acres according to the Pitkin County
Assessor.
3. The parcel is located at 761 Conundrum Creek Road and is legally described in Attachment A.
4. The parcel is subject to Administrative Decision No. 25-2014 which approved an Activity Envelope
and Caretaker Dwelling Unit (CDU). Due to the number of structures that did not receive a permit
and do not comply with the Land Use Code or Building Code, a specific condition was approved
that generally states that all structures within the 50' setback of Conundrum Creek shall be
demolished and area restored by September 15, 2014. This demolition has not fully occurred.
5. The Director finds that the request to amend condition #5 in Administrative Decision No. 25-2014
to extend the demolition date to September 30th, 2015 will not violate any provision of the Land
Use Code and is generally consistent with all other previous land use actions regulating the subject
property.
6. The Director further finds that the request is consistent with the requirements of the Pitkin County
Land Use Code.
APPROVED by the Director, subject to the following conditions:
1. The Applicant shall adhere to all material representations made during the application process.
2. The Applicant shall adhere to all requirements of Administrative Decision No. 25-2014, except as
amended with this Decision.

Page 1 of3
"By September 300, 2015, all structures within the 50' setback from the
mean high water mark of Conundrum Creek shall be demolished and the
area restored in accordance with best management practices for
riparian/wetland revegetation. A revegetation plan shall be submitted and
reviewed by the Community Development Director that employs
techniques that do not allow sedimentation to reach Conundrum Creek
and utilizes species and seed mixes that are in concert with the primarily
riparian environment of the property. Demolition permits shall be
obtained for the deconstruction of these structures. The Community
Development Department shall conduct a site inspection to verify
completion of the demolition and revegetation.
3. Failure to comply with the conditions of this approval may result in revocation of this approval,
or any subsequent permit(s) or approval(s) related to this property, or vested rights associated
with this property.
4. As manager of Golden Spirit Triangle, LLC I acknowledge these recitals and conditions of
approval. I also acknowledge that if these conditions of approval are not met or if representations

Re: Request for Minor Amendment to Development Permit; Administrative Decision No.
25-2014 granting land use approvals for the real property located at 761 Conundrum
Creek Road, Aspen, Colorado, PID # 291102300019
Dear Mike,
As you know, this firm represents Golden Spirit Triangle, LLC ("Applicant") and its Managing
Member, Marta J. Steinmetz. Administrative Decision No. 25-2014, approved and signed by the Pitkin
County Community Development Director on March 11, 2014, established two (2) activity envelopes on a
metes and bounds parcel containing approximately 1.8 acres, which parcel was legally created prior to June
12, 1978 and retains one development right for construction of up to 5,750 square feet of floor area exempt
from Growth Management Quota Systems. Applicant hereby requests a minor amendment to
Administrative Decision No. 25-2014, extending the deadline for demolition of certain structures located
within the 50' setback from Conundrum Creek. A check in the amount of $936.00, payable to the Pitkin
County Treasurer, is attached hereto in payment of the Planning Office flat fee. In addition, and in
accordance with the Pre -Application Conference Summary, the following information in support of the
request for minor amendment is also attached:
Exhibit A - A copy of Administrative Decision No. 25-2014;
Exhibit B - The Quit Claim Deed conveying the property to the Applicant, an Affidavit Regarding
Title to Real Property issued by a Colorado attorney, and a current certificate of ownership,
including encumbrances of record, issued by Stewart Title Company;
Exhibit C - The Activity Envelope Plan, which includes a metes and bounds legal description and a
vicinity map (8 y:" x 11" and 24" x 36" copies);
Exhibit D - The Agreement for Payment of Land Use Application Fees, signed by Marta Steinmetz,
Managing Member of the Applicant;
Exhibit E - The Owners consent to process the application and identifying this firm as its authorized
representative; and
Exhibit F - A copy of the Pitkin County Pre -Application Conference Summary.
This letter provides a summary of and constitutes Applicant's request to amend condition #5 of
the above -referenced land use approval, which provides in pertinent part as follows:

PID # 291102300019
"By September 15'fi ' 2014, all structures within the 50' setback from the mean high water
mark of Conundrum Creek shall be demolished and the area restored in accordance with
best management practices for riparian/wetland revegetation."
Applicant removed some, but not all, of the structures required to be demolished prior to the September
15, 2014 deadline, and seeks to amend the date by which demolition and re -vegetation is to be
accomplished. It has taken Applicant longer, and cost significantly more, than initially anticipated to
complete the removal or demolition of the structures located within the 50'setback of Conundrum Creek.
Ms. Steinmetz, Managing Member of the Applicant, has very little income other than her social security
income, and has been unable to fund the balance of the demolition. The property is currently offered for
sale and has only recently generated significant interest from prospective purchasers. If the land use
approvals contained in Administrative Decision No. 25-2014 are lost, Applicant will be unable to sell the
property prior to the due date of Applicant's loan, and the property will be forfeited to Applicant's lender.
Applicant's broker is informing all prospective purchasers that any remaining structures within the 50'
setback from the creek must be demolished and the area restored.
Applicant respectfully requests that the deadline for demolition of these structures and restoration
of the property be extended to September 30, 2015, and submits that this extension meets the criteria set
forth in Pitkin County Land Use Code Section 2-20-150(b) concerning minor amendments to a development
permit as follows:
(1) The extension is consistent with actions taken during the previous land use approvals, as the
concerns expressed by the County with respect to the structures to be demolished pertained
to the use and occupancy of these structures as living spaces. In accordance with condition #4
of the Administrative Decision No. 25-2014, all structures within the 50' setback were to be
rendered uninhabitable within thirty (30) days of the decision. This was accomplished by the
Applicant and confirmed by the Community Development Department.
(2) The extension of time requested to remove the remaining structures does not change the use
of the proposed development between residential, commercial and tourist accommodation
uses.
(3) The extension of time requested does not change the basic character of the approved use of
land on which the activity will occur; it simply extends the deadline for removal of the
structures to be demolished.
(4) The extension of time requested does not constitute a new land development activity, as the
demolition of the structures was always contemplated by the approvals.
(5) The requested extension of time does not increase off-site impacts in the surrounding
neighborhood, as the demolition was always contemplated by the land use approvals. Off-site
impacts, if any, are simply deferred.
(6) The extension of time requested to remove the structures does not endangerthe public health,
safety or welfare, as all structures have been either rendered uninhabitable or removed. The
removal of the remaining structures will be easier to complete once the snow and ice has
melted from the roofs of the structures and the ground adjacent thereto.
(7) Applicant is seeking only to extend the time for compliance with Administrative Decision No.
25-2014 and is not requesting to change any condition contained therein. As such, the
extension of time does not violate any Land Use Code standard.
PID # 291102300019
(8) The requested extension of time for the demolition of the structures within the 50' setback
does not increase the need for on-site parking or utilities, or affect affordable housing
generation.
(9) The minor amendment to the development approvals has not requested any increase in the
floor area or any decrease in open space.
We appreciate your consideration of Applicant's request for a minor amendment to Administrative
Decision No. 25-2014. Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions, comments,
concerns or require additional information. Thank you.

ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION OF THE PITKIN COUNTY, COLORADO, COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR GRANTING APPROVAL FOR THE GOLDEN SPIRIT
TRIANGLE LLC ACTIVITY ENVELOPE REVIEW AND SPECIAL REVIEW FOR A
CARETAKER DWELLING UNIT
Administrative Decision No. -2014
RECITALS
1. Golden Spirit Triangle, LLC (hereafter referred to as the "Applicant") has applied to the
Community Development Director of Pitkin County, Colorado ("Director") to establish two (2)
Activity Envelopes on the parcel and obtain Special Review approval for a Caretaker Dwelling Unit
(CDU).
2. The property is a metes and bounds parcel located at 761 Conundrum Creek Road (Legal
Description, Attachment A). The parcel is bound by Conundrum Creek to the north and Conundrum
Creek Road to the south and is commonly referred to as "Parcel A". PID#: 291102300019.
3. The parcel is approximately 1.8 acres, is in the AR -10 zone district, and is non -conforming in size.
4. The parcel is currently developed with multiple structures. Some were built pursuant to duly issued
building permits and some were not Some structures have been converted into dwelling units or
constructed without appropriate permits. The parcel was legally created prior to June 12, 1978 and
retains one (1) development right for construction up to 5,750 square feet of floor area exempt from
Growth Management Quota Systems (GMQS). An application was submitted in 2006 to establish a
building envelope for the site, however the 2006 application has been withdrawn from consideration.
5. The parcel has been subject to a previous merger analysis and boundary dispute. In question are two
parcels owned by the Applicant commonly referred to "Parcel A" and "Parcel B". The Applicant has
represented a parcel configuration as depicted by the boundaries on the survey by Sopris Engineering
LLC dated 6/27113. This boundary configuration will be used to review the proposal. The
Community Development Director has reviewed the legal descriptions of both Parcel A and Parcel
13, and finds that the Applicant has provided a survey that accurately depicts the boundaries of Parcel
A. The Director further finds that, Parcel A in accordance with its legal description and surveyed
boundaries, is not contiguous with Parcel B, and therefore, is not merged pursuant to Section 9-20-
20(a).
6. The Lot is located within a medium wildfire hazard area and the Applicant will be required to
comply with standards for development in the Art Hougland wildfire report dated June 27h, 2013.
The Applicant has also proposed envelopes that avoid steep slopes. The property is mapped within
an avalanche hazard area. The "red" avalanche zone and the "blue" avalanche zone have been
delineated by an avalanche specialist. The report states that a "red" avalanche zone exists west of the
property boundary and does not encumber the subject property. The `blue" zone is stated to extend
to the western most building, where the envelope is not proposed to be located and this existing
building is proposed to be demolished and the area restored.
Page J of
EXHIBIT A
Ll
PID # 291102300019
in accordance with Section 7-20-80(4xa), the envelope has been proposed within the 100' setback of
Conundrum Creek. Due to steep slopes on the southern portion of this lot, this request is appropriate
and the envelope can be reduced to 50' from the mean high water mark of the Creek as proposed.
The area within the 50' setback contains numerous structures and the Applicant has proposed to
remove these structures within an agreed upon timeframe. The Applicant has also provided a
wildlife and wetland assessment and it has been detemrined that the proposed envelopes will not
encumber jurisdictional wetlands. The property does not contain any big game ranges.
8. The Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife (CDPW), and the Aspen Fire District were referred on
the application. No comments were received.
9. Public notice was published on August 1" 2013 and mailings were sent to property owners within
300' of the subject property on July 31', 2013. No objections were received within 30 days.
APPROVED by the Director, subject to the following conditions:
I. The Applicant shall adhere to all material representations made in the current or prior applications
that were approved or in public meetings or hearings and shall consider those representations to be
conditions of this approval, unless amended by other conditions.
2. Within 30 days of this approval, the Applicant shall be required to submit for approval by the
County Attorney and Community Development an Activity Envelope Plan in accordance with
Land Use Code Section 2-30-20(g) and Application Manual Section 2.1.1. The above referenced
approvals shall be a condition precedent to finalization and recordation.
3. Site plan approval is required prior to submission of any building permits. Approval of an Activity
Envelope does not ensure approval of site plan review. Demolition permits are exempt from this
condition and may be applied for and issued.
4. Within 30 days of recordation of the Activity Envelope Plan, the Applicant shall render all
structures without applicable building permits uninhabitable and shall have no occupancy in these
structures. These structures are identified on the accompanying Activity Envelope plan recorded
at BK PG at Reception No. The Community Development
Department shall conduct a site inspection to verify these structures have been rendered
uninhabitable.
5. By September 15', 2014, all structures within the 50' setback from the mean high water mark of
Conundrum Creek shall be demolished and the area restored in accordance with best management
practices for riparian/wetland revegetation. A revegetation plan shall be submitted and reviewed
by the Community Development Director that employs techniques that do not allow
sedimentation to reach Conundrum Creek and utilizes species and seed mixes that are in concert
with the primarily riparian environment of the property. Demolition Permits shall be obtained for
the deconstruction of these structures. The Community Development Department shall conduct a
site inspection to verify completion of the demolition and revegetation.

Subject: Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Recommendations for the Steinmetz, Parcel A
Property, on Conundrum Creek Road, Pitkin County, Colorado
Dear Mr. Haas,
Thank you, Jodi Jacobson, Marta. Steinmetz and other for meeting with me at the
Steinmetz property on Monday, May 20, 2013 and for orienting me to the proposed
Activity Envelope and for later sending me a pdf site plan. The Activity Envelope is
generally level with a slope of less than 10%. Within the Activity Envelope there are
scattered conifer, cottonwood, willow, aspen and other native brush and grasses.
The Activity Envelope does not indicate the location of any proposed houses or other
structure and I assume that this is not known at this time. For this reason it is uncertain
which trees and brush will need to be removed to accommodate the construction of
building when that time comes. My comments and recommendations are intended to be
general in nature and, for the most part, applicable to any structures proposed in the
future. The property provides the opportunity to provide defensible space for proposed
structures. The area of the Activity Envelope resembles a Medium Wildfire Hazard Area.
vegetation Management and Modification Recommended:
Around any future proposed structures for a distance of 15 -feet the area should be of
primarily noncombustible hard scape surfaces, low growing perennials, flowerbeds,
out grass and deciduous, well -trimmed and irrigated plants. Woody vegetation should
not be planted within tltis area. Firewood or other combustible materials should not
be stored within this area. If the owner would like to have a few ornamental trees
near the buildings this may be done if the 15 -foot area is extended outward from the
furthest growth expected from the mature trees. In other words, these trees should
have defensible space as the building do.
000057
PID # 291102300019
2. Beyond the 15 -foot area up to 35 -feet, to the property line or to the steep and heavily
wooded slope to the east southeast maintain natural and/or irrigated grass at less than
6 -inches. Thin any remaining existing trees and brush into individual or clusters.
Remaining trees should have dead branches removed and should have limbs pruned
to one half the height of the tree or 10 -feet, whichever is less. Conifers should have
lower limbs pruned to a height of 10 -feet or one thud the height of the tree,
whichever is less. No brush or shrubs which when mature will be tall enough act as
ladder fuel should be provided or maintained around the trees. Clusters of bushes or
shrubs should be separated from each other and from those beyond the 35 -foot area
by a distance of 2 %: times the height of the mature vegetation. The diameter of a
cluster should be limited to 2 1/2 times the height of the mature vegetation. As an
example: If the expected mature height of the vegetation is 10 feet then the diameter
of the cluster should be no greater than 25 feet and the distance between clusters
should be greater than 25 feet. Ideally the plant material growing between trees and
clusters of bushes or shrubs is grass maintained at 6 -inches or less. Cut materials
should be either removed or chipped and spread.
3. Remove or chip all standing dead and deadfall within the Activity Envelope. There is
some standing dead and deadfall between the Activity Envelope and Conundrum .
Creek that is within the Riparian Area. From a wildfire safety standpoint it is best if
it could be removed. If this is in any way in conflict with Riparian Area standards, I
would defer to a determination by the Aspen Fire Protection District Fire Marshal
regarding this.
MEDIUM WILDFIRE HAZARD AREAS:
New Construction, Additions:
Pitkin County has Structural Design and Construction Requirements, the following are
paraphrased from the Pitkin County Land Use Code, chapter 7, Section 7-20-60 Wildfire
Hazards and may or may not contain exact language but it is intended to be consistent
with the intent and purpose of the Pitkin County requirements:
Roofs shall be constructed with a Class -A roof assembly as defined in the 2003
International Building Code (IBC) Section 1505.2. Wood shake/shingle roof coverings
are prohibited in all wildfire hazard areas. Roofs with less than a 3:12 pitch are not
permitted in wildfire areas unless they comply with the following:
1} All roof coverings shall be Class -A materials approved for installation on
a Class -A roof assembly.
2) All roof coverings shall have a surface that shall facilitate the natural
process of clearing the roof.
3) All roof designs shall facilitate the natural process of clearing roof debris.
Protrusions above the roof line, such as parapets, shall be prohibited.
4) Roofs shall be installed as required by the adopted building code and shall
have a minimum slope of 1:48.
5) All roof designs, coverings or equivalent assemblies shall be specifically
approved by the Fire Marshal prior to submittal of a building permit
application.

PID # 291102300019
6) Vents: Soffit Vents shall be located in the outer 1/3rd of the overhang and
screened with corrosive resistant wire mesh, with mesh one-fourth inch
('/d') maximum.
Maintenance:
a) Roofs and gutters shall be kept clear of debris.
b) Area shall be kept clear of all litter, slash and flammable debris.
c) All flammable materials shall be stored on a parallel contour a minimum
of fifteen feet (15') away from any structure.
d) Weeds and grasses within the fifteen -foot (15') perimeter and under trees
shall be maintained to a height of not more than six inches (6").
Miscellaneous:
a) Firewood/wood piles shall be stacked on a parallel contour a minimum of
fifteen feet (15') away from the structure.
b) Fences shall be kept clear of brush and debris.
c) Wood fences shall not connect to the structure.
d) Any outbuildings or additional structures shall adhere to the same
standards as structures.
e) Each structure shall have a minimum of one ten (10) pound Class ABC
fire extinguisher.
f) Addresses shall be clearly marked with two-inch (2") non-combustible
letters and shall be visible at the primary point of access from the public or

I also recommend a publication titled "Firewise Construction Design and Materials"
available from the Colorado State Forest Service.
If you have comments, questions or require additional information please contact me.
Sincerely,
Art Hougland
NOTICE: This Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Analysis along with observations and
recommendations is intended to be an aid to the owner, architect and vegetation management
and/or landscape design and implementation professionals in the development of defensible space
and of fire wise construction documents. The review of the existing wildfire hazard potential on
this property and the observations and recommendations for the mitigation of these hazards does
not constitute an acceptance of any responsibility by Hougland & Associates for errors, omissions
or discrepancies. The behavior of wildfire is acknowledged to be capricious in nature. Hougland
& Associates does not proclaim that circumstances, including improper maintenance, may not
arise that would permit wildfire to overwhelm the mitigation measures recommended or
implemented. Observations and recommendations are intended to be collaborative with wildfire
hazard mitigation guidelines of the Colorado State Forest Service and of other nationally
recognized standards and are intended to be constructive and in support of the owners interest.
