ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION OF THE PMUN COUNTY, COLORADO, COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR GRANTING APPROVAL FOR THE 10 MAROON DRIVE LLC
ACTIVITY ENVELOPE AND SITE PLAN
Administrative Decision Noaq-2016
RECITALS
10 Maroon Drive LLC (hereafter referred to as "Applicant") has applied to the Community Development
Director of Pitkin County, Colorado ("Director") for Activity Envelope and Site Plan Review to demolish a
single family residence and redevelop a new single family residence. The Applicant also requests approval to
construct a lap pool, detached pool house and patio, and landscaping improvements. The residence is
proposed to contain approximately 8,180 square feet of gross floor area. The Applicant has proposed to use
one (1) Transferrable Development Right (TDR) for development over 5,750 square feet of gross floor area.
The Lot is located at 27 Maroon Drive (formally 10 Maroon Drive) and is legally described as Lot 10
of the BOCC approved Pyramid View Subdivision. The Lot is within the Aspen Urban Growth
Boundary (UGB). PID#: 273511101002
2. The Lot is approximately 45,274 square feet, is in the R-30 zone district, and is conforming in
size. The Lot received Activity Envelope and Site Plan approval pursuant to Administrative
Decision No. 05-2010 (Reception No. 566812). The Activity Envelope and Site Plan was
recorded at BK93 PG29. This approval is no longer vested and was not acted upon.
3. Pursuant to 6-30-100(Bxlxa), the Lot is exempt from the Growth Management Quota System
(GQMS) up to 5,750 square feet of gross floor area. The Applicant has indicated the intent to apply
one (1) TDR to this Lot for development exceeding 5,750 square feet of gross floor area. Final
maximum gross floor area for the Lot is proposed to be approximately 8,180 square feet. Pursuant to
Section 6-30-50(bxl), the Lot is exempt from Special Review for a TDR Receiver Site because the
Lot is located within the Aspen UGB.
4. The Lot is visible from Hwy 82. Staff has conducted a site visit and the future residence will not
obstruct a ridgeline as viewed from the Highway. The parcel is not mapped within any big game
ranges. The Applicant has provided a 2009 wildfire report from the previous Activity Envelope and
Site Plan application which states the Lot is mostly within a low wildfire hazard area on the flat
portion of the Lot, but is within a severe wildfire hazard area on the steep, western portion of the Lot.
The severe wildfire hazard rating is due to heavy vegetation and steep slopes. Staff conducted a site
visit at the Lot and the site conditions and vegetation outlined in this 2009 report still exist and the
report is applicable. The wildfire report states that thinning must occur on the steep slope to mitigate
the hazard. The Applicant has committed to hand thinning to accomplish this. The report also
recommends that within 37' from the top of the steep western slope, severe wildfire construction
techniques shall be used for construction of the residence. The Applicant will be required to comply
with these recommendations.
The existing residence is served by the Aspen Consolidated Sanitation District and the City of
Aspen Water Service. Both utilities will continue to provide service to the future residence.

RE: 10 Maroon Wildfire Hazard Review
E
Dear Courtney:
0 0
0 4
I am pleased to present this wildfire hazard review letter report for the residence
g c
at 10 Maroon. The project site is currently developed but is identified for
improvements, including a new (replacement) single-family residence, outdoor
n
terrace, gardens and vegetated screening for County Scenic View Protection from
a m
Highway 82 and HOA screening from Maroon Drive. I have reviewed the parcel's
—
existing conditions, including topography, vegetation, built improvements and the
c
proposed site plan. My observations are based on a site visit and technical
information made available to me by the consultant team.
"
Current/ Proposed Conditions
The subject property was visited on August 19, 2009. The property is not mapped
on the Pitkin County adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps (1997 Colorado Forest
'Low
„
Service). Based on my site visit the majority of the site is considered to be
Hazard' as it is typified by moderate slopes and mesic vegetation. The western
o
quarter of the parcel is considered to be a'Severe Wildfire Hazard' condition for its
t
steep slopes and continuous horizontal and vertical fuel paths.
5
gThe
topography found on site are as illustrated on the site survey. Occupying a
site above Maroon Creek, slopes are relatively flat for the majority of the parcel.
Slopes exceeding 15% and ranging as high as 60%, are found along the western
edge of the parcel where the topography slopes continuously down to Pyramid
Road and Maroon Creek. Man-made berms, approximately 4 -feet in height, border
the north and south property lines from Maroon Drive to the top edge of the
western slope.
The vegetation found on site Is primarily native grasses and Sage. Mature
Serviceberry, Gambel Oak and native grasses dominate the steep western slope.
Mature irrigated conifer and aspen trees can be found near the existing residence.
It is understood that some of these mature trees will be preserved. The man-
made berms found along the adjoining north and south property lines are irrigated
and densely planted with conifers and aspens for visual screening purposes.
The proposed site plan shows the new residence situated near the top edge of the
western slope. The steep continuous grades and vertical and horizontal continuity
0 0
of down-slope fuel paths associated with this area will require a combination of
wildfire hazard mitigation techniques, including the creation of defensible space,
and special structural design and construction techniques. General mitigation
measures relative to site design and construction are outlined below along with
specific techniques for mitigating the 'Severe Wildfire' condition. Overall, the
prescribed mitigation measures provide a balance between adequate wildfire
mitigation and County and HOA scenic screening requirements.
Mitigation Recommendations
Defensible Space - Western Slope
For the areas situated west and down-slope of new construction the following
mitigation requirements shall provide a zone of defensible space, protecting new
construction from wildfires, while maintaining a smooth visual transition between
the development and the adjacent natural vegetation.
From the top edge of the western slope and extending thirty (30) feet down-slope:
o Maintain natural and/or irrigated grass at less than six (6) Inches and thin
existing trees and shrubs into discrete clumps.
o Maintain separation between tree and shrub clumps by a distance no less
than 2.5 times the height of the mature vegetation.
o Tree limbs shall be pruned to one half the height of the tree or ten (10)
feet, whichever is less.
o Remove all brush, which when mature, will be tall enough to act as ladder
fuels to clumps.
All branches of existing/ preserved trees that extend over the roof eaves
shall be trimmed and all branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall
be removed.
All down-slope deadfall shall be removed.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the down slope vegetation requirements.
o New woody vegetation shall not be planted in this area except for specific
Highway 82 Scenic View Protection purposes with the following conditions:
o New screening shall be sited along the northern property line on
slopes no greater than 15% and no closer than twenty (20) feet to
new construction.
o Maintain down-slope spacing to trees and shrubs clumps as
described above.
o All new shrubs or trees are to be irrigated to keep fuel moistures
high.
Defensible Space - General
o Brush, debris and non -ornamental vegetation shall be removed within a
minimum fifteen (15) foot perimeter around all structures and the drip line
of any preserved trees within this offset.
0 0
Spacing between clumps of brush and vegetation up to the thirty (30) foot
perimeter shall be a minimum of two (2) times the height of the fuel.
Maximum diameter of the clumps shall be equal to the height of the fuel.
All measurements shall be from the edges of the crowns of the fuel.
o All branches from trees and brush within the thirty (30) foot perimeter
shall be pruned to a height of ten (10) feet above the ground with removal
of ladder fuels from around trees and brush.
o Tree crown separation within the thirty (30) foot perimeters shall have a
minimum of ten (10) feet between the edges of the crowns, except for
mature stands of aspen trees where ladder fuels have been removed. In
areas of aspen regeneration, understory shrubs and down and dead
materials shall be removed.
0 All branches that extend over the roof eaves shall be trimmed and all
branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall be removed.
0 The density of fuels up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter of the
structures shall be reduced where natural reduction has not already
occurred.
All deadfall up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter shall be removed.
o No new conifer trees shall be planted within ten (10) feet of a residence.
0 Flammable mulches (wood chips) are not allowed within two (2) feet of the
residence.
C The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the general vegetation requirements.
Access
0 Because the property lies within the Urban Growth Boundary, access roads
and driveways shall be built to City of Aspen standards. Standards may be
increased based on comment by local fire protection district input for
emergency vehicle access.
o Conifers are not allowed within fifteen (15) feet of the driveway (except at
the Maroon Drive access for visual screening of the garage and residence).
o Low vegetation (grasses, ground covers and shrubs) shall be kept mowed
to less than six (6) inches within ten (10) feet of either side of the
driveway.
Water Supply for Fire Safetv
o The subdivision is supplied with pressurized water through a fire hydrant
system.
Structural Design Materials and Construction Techniques
Due to the close up -hill proximity of the proposed development to the severe wildfire
hazard, important structural and construction techniques must be implemented to make
the new residence more fire -resistive where it faces or closely adjoins the west slope.
Severe wildfire construction techniques and materials shall be implemented for all portions
0

Dear Courtney:
u m
o
I am pleased to present this wildfire hazard review letter report for the residence
c
at 10 Maroon. The project site is currently developed but is identified for
improvements, including a new (replacement) single-family residence, outdoor
d o
terrace, gardens and vegetated screening for County Scenic View Protection from
a m
Highway 82 and HOA screening from Maroon Drive. I have reviewed the parcel's
—
existing conditions, including topography, vegetation, built improvements and the
3 o
proposed site plan. My observations are based on a site visit and technical
information made available to me by the consultant team.
"
Current/ Proposed Conditions
The subject property was visited on August 19, 2009. The property is not mapped
Z
on the Pitkin County adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps (1997 Colorado Forest
—„
Service). Based on my site visit the majority of the site is considered to be 'Low
Hazard' as it is typified by moderate slopes and mesic vegetation. The western
n
quarter of the parcel is considered to be a'Severe Wildfire Hazard' condition for its
r
steep slopes and continuous horizontal and vertical fuel paths.
5
$
The topography found on site are as illustrated on the site survey. Occupying a
M
site above Maroon Creek, slopes are relatively flat for the majority of the parcel.
Slopes exceeding 15% and ranging as high as 60%, are found along the western
edge of the parcel where the topography slopes continuously down to Pyramid
Road and Maroon Creek. Man-made berms, approximately 4 -feet in height, border
the north and south property lines from Maroon Drive to the top edge of the
western slope.
The vegetation found on site Is primarily native grasses and Sage. Mature
Serviceberry, Gambel Oak and native grasses dominate the steep western slope.
Mature irrigated conifer and aspen trees can be found near the existing residence.
It is understood that some of these mature trees will be preserved. The man-
made berms found along the adjoining north and south property lines are irrigated
and densely planted with conifers and aspens for visual screening purposes.
The proposed site plan shows the new residence situated near the top edge of the
western slope. The steep continuous grades and vertical and horizontal contlnulty
of down-slope fuel paths associated with this area will require a combination of
wildfire hazard mitigation techniques, including the creation of defensible space,
and special structural design and construction techniques. General mitigation
measures relative to site design and construction are outlined below along with
specific techniques for mitigating the 'Severe Wildfire' condition. Overall, the
prescribed mitigation measures provide a balance between adequate wildfire
mitigation and County and HOA scenic screening requirements.
Mitigation Recommendations
Defensible Space - Western Slope
For the areas situated west and down-slope of new construction the following
mitigation requirements shall provide a zone of defensible space, protecting new
construction from wildfires, while maintaining a smooth visual transition between
the development and the adjacent natural vegetation.
From the top edge of the western slope and extending thirty (30) feet down-slope:
o Maintain natural and/or irrigated grass at less than six (6) inches and thin
existing trees and shrubs into discrete clumps.
o Maintain separation between tree and shrub clumps by a distance no less
than 2.5 times the height of the mature vegetation.
o Tree limbs shall be pruned to one half the height of the tree or ten (10)
feet, whichever is less.
o Remove all brush, which when mature, will be tall enough to act as ladder
fuels to clumps.
All branches of existing/preserved trees that extend over the roof eaves
shall be trimmed and all branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall
be removed.
o All down-slope deadfall shall be removed.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the down slope vegetation requirements.
e New woody vegetation shall not be planted in this area except for specific
Highway 82 Scenic View Protection purposes with the following conditions:
o New screening shall be sited along the northern property line on
slopes no greater than 15% and no closer than twenty (20) feet to
new construction.
C, Maintain down-slope spacing to trees and shrubs clumps as
described above.
o All new shrubs or trees are to be irrigated to keep fuel moistures
high.
Defensible Space - General
o Brush, debris and non -ornamental vegetation shall be removed within a
minimum fifteen (15) foot perimeter around all structures and the drip line
of any preserved trees within this offset.
Spacing between clumps of brush and vegetation up to the thirty (30) foot
perimeter shall be a minimum of two (2) times the height of the fuel.
Maximum diameter of the clumps shall be equal to the height of the fuel.
All measurements shall be from the edges of the crowns of the fuel.
o All branches from trees and brush within the thirty (30) foot perimeter
shall be pruned to a height of ten (10) feet above the ground with removal
of ladder fuels from around trees and brush.
o Tree crown separation within the thirty (30) foot perimeters shall have a
minimum of ten (10) feet between the edges of the crowns, except for
mature stands of aspen trees where ladder fuels have been removed. In
areas of aspen regeneration, understory shrubs and down and dead
materials shall be removed.
v All branches that extend over the roof eaves shall be trimmed and all
branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall be removed.
c The density of fuels up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter of the
structures shall be reduced where natural reduction has not already
occurred.
All deadfall up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter shall be removed.
No new conifer trees shall be planted within ten (10) feet of a residence.
o Flammable mulches (wood chips) are not allowed within two (2) feet of the
residence.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the general vegetation requirements.
Access
Because the property lies within the Urban Growth Boundary, access roads
and driveways shall be built to City of Aspen standards. Standards may be
increased based on comment by local fire protection district input for
emergency vehicle access.
o Conifers are not allowed within fifteen (15) feet of the driveway (except at
the Maroon Drive access for visual screening of the garage and residence).
Low vegetation (grasses, ground covers and shrubs) shall be kept mowed
to less than six (6) inches within ten (10) feet of either side of the
driveway.
Water Supply for Fire Safety
o The subdivision is supplied with pressurized water through a fire hydrant
system.
Structural Design Materials and Construction Techniques
Due to the close up -hill proximity of the proposed development to the severe wildfire
hazard, important structural and construction techniques must be implemented to make
the new residence more fire -resistive where it faces or closely adjoins the west slope.
Severe wildfire construction techniques and materials shall be implemented for all portions
of the building that fall within a thirty seven (37) foot offset from the top of slope. This
calculation assumes:
c Average slope (and indirect uphill convective and radiant energy path) of 45%
o Roof line of seventeen (17) feet
General construction techniques and materials are outlined below along with
appropriate recommendations for the 'Severe Hazard' condition. Any methods
approved for the Severe Wildfire Hazard Areas may be used in other areas.

The subject property is a 1.03 acre parcel in the R-30 zone district. The proposed 8,179 sq.ft.
residence will completely replace the existing 1,541 sq.ft. residence. The proposed residence is sited
within the proposed Activity Envelope that avoids all constrained area and complies with all applicable
setbacks.
The applicant's entire property is located within the Scenic View Protection Area. However, the
residence can only be seen from the bridge over Maroon Creek on State Highway 82. The proposed
residence is of simple modern architectural style, using contextual, natural materials and tones that
will complement the surrounding landscape. Much of the proposed structure is sub -grade with only
one-story above grade, making the building appear smaller and less bulky. The spatial configuration
of the home is a courtyard organization with the bulk of the house orientated towards Maroon Drive.
The residence will also be screened by landscaping and vegetation and will therefore have a minimal
impact on the protected view.
The development is consistent with the goals and intentions of the R-30 zone district and complies
with all applicable sections of the Pitkin County Land Use Code. Please let me know is there is
additional information which I can provide.

contains a steep slope to Pyramid Road. The proposed development occurs only on slopes less than o 0
thirty (30%) percent. Screen planting exists to the north of the development. Additional screen w P
planting is provided along the easterly property line along Maroon Drive, where a berm already exists. g P
Along the southern lot line, a combination of perennial plants and screen trees exist. The western lot � w
line is the sloped terrain where native perennials and scrub oak exist.
The applicant's entire property is located within the Scenic View Protection Area. However, the
residence can only be seen from a portion of State Highway 82 along the bridge over Maroon Creek.
(See attached rendered collages) The proposed residence is of simple modern architectural style,
using contextual, natural materials and tones that will complement the surrounding landscape. Much
of the proposed structure is sub -grade (2,910 sq. ft.). The building has a single story above grade,
making it smaller and less bulky then many of its neighbors. The spatial configuration of the home is
a courtyard organization with the bulk of the house orientated towards Maroon Drive. The residence
will also be screened by landscaping and vegetation and will therefore have a minimal impact on the
protected views. The lot is located at a similar elevation to State Highway 82, therefore occupying the
valley corridor. The location in no way impacts the ridgelines visible from State Highway 82.
The applicant will adequately mitigate all hazards that may exist on the property. The building
footprint is located to minimize impacts on the natural terrain and avoid slopes over 30%_ A portion of
the parcel is mapped as a Severe Hazard Wildfire Area, and the appropriate defensible space will be
created around the building as well as building materials and design that comply with the application's
wildfire mitigation report.
The applicant will follow all County regulations to minimize the impact of the proposed development
on wildlife. No wildlife habitat is mapped on the property. There is proximity to a riparian area to the
west of the property although the steep embankment and Pyramid Road act as a buffer from the
proposed residence, far from the 100'-0" stream setback.
No significant grading will occur on the site, as the building envelope is located on the upper bench of
the slope. The natural berms that occur along the eastern edge of the property will remain and
additional landscaping will be added to enhance screening from Maroon Drive. The lot is a part of an
already established subdivision and utilities are in place. The lot is currently accessed from a
driveway off of Maroon Drive and access will remain in the same location.

Section 2-30-20 ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW PROCEDURE
(g) CRITERIA FOR APPROVAL
(1) General
Except as stated in subsections (2) through (18) below, an application for administrative review shall be
approved if it complies with (a) all applicable provisions of this Land Use Code, (b) all applicable Land Use
Policies listed in Sec. 1-60, and (c) all prior development approvals applicable to the subject property. Where
the decision of staff with result in the approval of a land use that is not permitted by right in the zone district
where the property is located, compliance with the requirements of this Land Use Code shall include, but shall
not be limited to, compliance with those standards for special review uses in Secs. 2-30-30(h)(2) and 2-40-20,
as applicable.
This application complies with all applicable provisions of the Pitkin County Land Use Code
and the Pitkin County Comprehensive Plan. An activity envelope, site plan and GMQS
exemption for a TDR receiver site for this property was approved on December 5, 2010
(Administrative Decision No. 05-2010) and is no longer vested. The property is located in the
Aspen Tennis Club Subdivision which is within the R-30 zone district. The proposed single-
family residence complies with all dimensional requirements for this zone district as well as
the zoning intent for the R-30 district.
(2) Site Plan
A Site Plan shall be approved if it complies with (a) all applicable provisions of this Land Use Code, (b) any
Activity Envelope previously approved for the property pursuant to Sec. 7-10-50, and (c) all prior development
approvals applicable to the subject property. Where the property contains Constrained Areas, the Community
Development Department staff shall follow those Priorities for Locating New Activity or Development listed in
Sec. 7-10-60. If an Activity Envelope has not been previously established for the property pursuant to Sec. 7-
10-50, one shall be established as part of the Site Plan Review process.
The proposed Site Plan complies with all applicable provisions of the Pitkin County Land Use
Code. The residence will be sited along the top of the slope overlooking Pyramid Road on the
western side of the property within an activity envelope that conforms to the top of slope and
avoids all constrained areas while utilizing the areas of the property that are currently
disturbed and developed.
(3) Activity Envelope
An application for designation of an Activity Envelope shall be approved if it complies with the standards and
criteria established in Sec. 7-10-50. If the applicant chooses to apply for definition of an Activity Envelope
separately from approval of a Site Plan, the Activity Envelope shall be designed to accommodate the largest
home and related septic field possible on the site pursuant to Table 5-1 after the use of TDRs or a GMQS
allocation to increase house size. The definition of an Activity Envelope based on a maximum house size and
septic field shall no create any presumption that a Site Plan for a house smaller than the maximum allowed
under Table 5-1, and in that event the Activity envelope will be designed to accommodate a house and septic
field of that size. Where the property contains Constrained Areas, the Community Development Department
staff shall follow those Priorities for Locating New Activity or Development listed in Sec. 7-10-60. Actual siting
of the septic field shall require final approval pursuant to the Environmental Health and Natural Resources On -
Site Wastewater Treatment System regulations.
The proposed Activity Envelope has been designed to comply with Section 7-10-50 of the
Pitkin County Land Use Code. According to the underlying zoning, the applicant has the
development right to construct a 5,750 sq. ft. house exempt from Growth Management
(GMQS) and up to 8,250 sq. ft. in gross floor area with the use of TDRs. The proposed
Activity Envelope encompasses the entire developable area of the 1.03 acre lot and includes
July 20, 2016

architecture and urban design
the currently developed and utilized areas of the site. The proposed Activity Envelope is large
enough to contain the proposed residence, landscaped outdoor living area and infrastructure.
Chapter 7: DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
Section 7-10-50 SITE PLAN AND ACTIVITY ENVELOPE
(a) The intent of this Chapter 7 is to allow activities and development to take place where they comply with the
provisions of this Land Use Code and with the Pitkin County Comprehensive Plan for the area. Compliance will
generally involve avoidance of "Constrained Areas" through the identification of an "Activity Envelope," as well
as approval of a Site Plan. For purposes of Chapter 7, "Constrained Areas" include all areas included in each
of the following categories, as defined and regulated by this Land Use Code: (i) Areas of Statewide Interest
listed in C.R.S. 24-65.1-101 et. Seq.), (ii) steep and potentially unstable slopes, (iii) water courses, drainage
channels, and areas subject to erosion, (iv) floodplain hazard areas, (vi) severe or low to moderate wildfire
hazard areas, (vii) wildlife habitat areas, (viii) river and stream corridors and wetlands (ix) irrigated lands for food
or crop production, (x) historic preservation areas, and (xi) archeological resource areas.
The proposed Activity Envelope has been designed to avoid all constrained areas as defined
by 7-10-50 of the Pitkin County Land Use Code. Of the categories defined and regulated by
the Land Use Code, the applicant's site contains constraints related to steep slopes and
severe or low to moderate wildfire hazard area.
The proposed Activity Envelope avoids these contained areas and mediates some of the
hazard in terms of Wildfire Hazard by thinning the trees along the western edge of the
property. The design of the proposed residence responds to the hazard by using appropriate
building assemblies and materials. See attached Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Report. The
applicant will carry out the mitigation techniques listed in the report.
The proposed Activity Envelope avoids steep slopes (greater then 3051o) and mitigates for
wildfire hazard. Otherwise, no drainage channels, geological hazards, historic preservation
areas, irrigated lands, or archeological resources exist on the property.
(b) The Site Plan process incorporates an "Activity Envelope' approach in which the County staff works with the
applicant to determine which portions of the site (if any) would permit the proposed activity or development to
be conducted in compliance with this Land Use Code and in conformity with the Comprehensive Plan for the
area. In general, this process will involve both a determination of (i) which portions of the site are not available
for development because of the existence of Constrained Areas, and (ii) of the remaining portions of the site,
which areas would accommodate the activity or development so as to minimize impacts on surrounding
properties, maximize compliance with the requirements of the development standards in this Chapter 7, and
maximize compliance with the Comprehensive Plan goals and objectives.
The proposed Activity Envelope has been designed to avoid all constrained areas. The
proposed envelope complies with the County's goal to allow moderate density residential
development on Maroon Drive which is within the Urban Growth Boundary.
(c) In general, the defined Activity Envelope for development of primary uses shall be large enough to
accommodate the proposed principle use of the property and traditional permitted accessory structures,
infrastructure (roads and septic systems), and uses, but should not be significantly larger than the area needed
for such structures. In the case of a site with few Constrained Areas, the defined Activity Envelope may include
more than one potential building site for a new single family home. The defined Activity Envelope may include
non-contiguous areas (including separate areas for septic fields, landscaping, driveways to public roads,

lowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
mitigation measures required in connection with any provision of this Chapter 7, and/or areas to be disturbed
only during construction on the property - including staging areas and materials storage areas). Constructions
of trails will not require an Activity Envelope analysis except as required by Sec. 7-20-50.
The proposed Activity Envelope encompasses the entire developable area of the 1.03 acre lot
and includes the currently developed and utilized areas of the site. The area is large enough
to accommodate the single family residence, associated outdoor living space, landscaping in
the courtyard configuration and its related infrastructure.
(d) Clearing, grading, grubbing, earthmoving that exceeds fifty (50) cubic yards, or changes in the natural
drainage of the site shall occur only after an Activity Envelope has been defined and all applicable local, state
and federal permits have been obtained. In addition, Site Plan Approval is required if these activities will occur
on a property within a Scenic View Protection Area.
Clearing and grubbing work, including vegetation removal, will occur within the proposed
envelope with the exception of noxious weed removal. Vegetation to be removed, illustrated
on the Planting Plan prepared by Land Design 39, and the extent of proposed grading,
illustrated on the Grading Plan, within the Activity Envelope demonstrate compliance with
these requirements. The application's wildfire mitigation recommendations include selective
thinning and pruning of vegetation located outside of the Activity Envelope. Trees to be
pruned and/or removed will be flagged in the field and reviewed with County staff prior to work
being performed.
This application requests Site Plan Approval, as the proposed single-family residence is within
the Scenic View Protection Area.
(e) Activity Envelope and Site Plan Review for a Stream Restoration Project shall adhere to all development
standards in 7-20-40 and 7-20-80 and shall be reviewed by the BOCC as set forth in Table 2-1.
This code provision is not applicable to this application.
(f) Once an Activity Envelope has been defined, the natural grade, topography, vegetation and drainage of
areas outside the defined areas shall not be disturbed except as specifically permitted in this Land Use Code.
Prior to any development activity on the parcel, the boundaries of the Activity Envelope shall be identified with
construction fencing, and such fencing shall remain in place until development has been completed.
Areas outside the proposed Activity Envelope will not be disturbed unless specifically
permitted by the Land Use Code. This may include additional wildfire mitigation as
recommended in the Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Report. The boundaries of the Activity
Envelope will be identified and marked during construction with a construction fence.
(g) While it is preferable to obtain approval of an Activity Envelope as part of the Site Plan approval process,
applicants who are not prepared to submit a Site Plan for a specific structure may request approval of an
Activity Envelope separately. Prior to the issuance of a Development Permit, the applicant shall be required to
apply for and obtain approval of a Site Plan confirming that the proposed development is consistent with the
defined Activity Envelope and with other standards in this Land Use Code not considered at the time the Activity
Envelope was defined.
This application seeks approval of the proposed Activity Envelope as part of the Site Plan
Review.

HAZARDS
Section 7-20-10 SITE PREPARATION AND GRADING
(a) Grading and Fill Placement
Grading and filling on a site shall take place only within a defined Activity Envelope. All grading and fill
placement that exceeds fifty (50) cubic yards shall be indicated on the Site Plan.
All proposed grading and filling work on the site will be located within the Activity Envelope.
Proposed grading is illustrated on Grading Plan prepared by High Country Engineering and
contained within this application.
(b) Clearing, Grubbing, and Vegetation Removal
Clearing or grubbing of land, or removal of vegetation shall take place only within an approved Activity Envelope,
except removal of noxious weeds may occur outside of an Activity Envelope. Each Site Plan shall document
compliance with the requirements of this Sec. 7-20-10(b) and Sec. 7-20-130.
Clearing and grubbing work, including vegetation removal, will occur within the proposed
envelope with the exception of noxious weed removal. Vegetation to be removed, illustrated
on the Planting Plan prepared by Land Design 39, and the extent of proposed grading,
illustrated on the Grading Plan, within the Activity Envelope demonstrate compliance with
these requirements. The application's wildfire mitigation recommendations include selective
thinning and pruning of vegetation located outside of the Activity Envelope. Trees to be
pruned and/or removed will be flagged in the field and reviewed with County staff prior to work
being performed.
(c) Tree Removal and Mitigation
Each tree with six (6) inches or larger diameter at breast height (D.B.H.) that is removed within the Activity
Envelope shall be replaced with one (1) or more trees with total D.B.H. at least equal to the caliper(s) of the
tree(s) removed, to the maximum extent practicable. Any tree that (i) is diseased, or (ii) is required to be
removed pursuant to the provisions of Sec. 7-20-60, as those requirements may be varied by a wildfire expert
approved by the County, may be removed and no replacement shall be required. All revegetation shall also
comply with the Pitkin County Revegetation Guidelines. Required replacement trees that do not survive for at
least one (1) year after installation shall be replaced at the owner's expense, and the County may require
financial security for such replacement pursuant to Sec. 7-20-130(b)(7).
The proposed residence requires the removal of fifteen (15) trees, or one -hundred twenty-
seven (127) caliper inches. The applicant may request an adjustment to the required
mitigation based on the health of these trees as determined in fall 2016. The applicant is
proposing to mitigate the removed trees with a minimum of thirty-seven (37) trees totaling one -
hundred thirty (130) caliper inches. The Planting Plan illustrates the number and size of the
proposed trees.
(d) Protection of Natural Terrain
The County Engineer or Community Development Director shall suggest and may require design and
construction techniques that lessen or mitigate any physical and visual damage caused by the proposed activity
or development to Constrained Areas or to the natural terrain, stream vegetation, and other natural features of
the landscape within the Activity Envelope. Techniques shall include, but are not limited to,

architecture and urban design
(1) REVEGETATION
Revegetation and reforestation utilizing native or similar horticultural material, to be completed during the first
planting season after construction; where vegetation is removed, it shall be replaced with vegetation that will
reach similar density and height to that removed within two (2) years following conclusion of construction.
The proposed plant material will be installed during the first planting season after construction
of the residence. The proposed plant materials in total will equal similar density and height to
that removed within two (2) years of installation.
(2) TOPSOIL
Removing and saving topsoil prior to any grading or excavating and replacement for revegetation.
The applicant proposes to remove and stockpile topsoil for use during the landscape
installation.
(3) WEED PREVENTION
Weed prevention, thistle management, and prohibition of non-native plants, which may include reducing animal
damage to vegetation cover, as determined by the United States Soil Conservation Service Soil Survey.
The applicant will comply with this code provision.
(4) UTILITY INSTALLATION
Locating and installing utilities in a manner minimizing damage to the natural environment and scenic quality.
The site is currently served by utilities, which are located within the immediately adjacent road
right-of-way. Any new utility service will be extended to the site from the adjacent road right-
of-way and will not create damage to natural environment and scenic qualities.
(5) EROSION, SEDIMENTATION, AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Land uses shall:
(a) Not cause erosion problems and, if practicable, retain all soil on site;
(b) Minimize disturbance of natural vegetation and soil cover;
(c) Ensure that all cuts and fills are adequately designed and vegetated to control erosion as well as
stability of the slope area;
(d) Ensure that natural drainage patterns are preserved and protected from increased water flows that
subject existing channels and adjacent areas to increased erosion; and
(e) Preserve natural vegetation and soil cover within those buffer distances adjacent to rivers, streams,
lakes, reservoirs and wetlands/riparian areas established in Sec. 7-20-80.
Mitigation measures identified in an approved erosion, sedimentation, or stormwater management plan shall
remain in place until revegetation is viable.
The proposed Grading and Planting Plans illustrate compliance with this code section. All
work is proposed within the Activity Envelope, which excludes steep slopes. Site drainage is
proposed to be collected and treated on the property and will not cause erosion concerns.
The applicant will ensure appropriate erosion and sedimentation control measures are in
place and maintained throughout construction and until revegetation is sufficiently established.

Section 7-20-20 STEEP AND POTENTIALLY UNSTABLE SLOPES
The following provisions shall apply whenever steep slopes or potentially unstable slopes occur within the
Activity Envelope, but do not apply when the Activity Envelope have been defined to avoid such areas.
(a) Slope Delineation
Slopes shall be delineated within the Activity Envelope with two (2) foot contour intervals. Slopes between each
two (2) foot contour in each of the following categories shall be designated by a distinct graphic pattern.
1) Slopes that are fifteen (15) percent or greater, but less than thirty (30) percent;
2) Slopes that are thirty (30) percent or greater, but less than forty-five (45) percent;
3) Slopes that are forty-five (45) percent or greater.
The Slope Delineation Plan illustrates topography within the property, including delineations
for slopes 15 percent and greater, in the categories described in this code section.
(b) Forty-five (45) Percent or Greater Gradient
Development is prohibited on slopes with a slope gradient equal to or exceeding forty-five (45) percent, except:
(1) Where:
The lot is in a legally platted subdivision, recorded prior to 1972, and
There is no alternative building site that avoids areas of slope exceeding forty-five (45) percent, and
An engineer or geologist licensed in the State of Colorado demonstrates that the site can be engineered so that
there is no hazard posed by the location of development on such slopes, and
The proposed development complies with all standards in subsection (c)(1) below applicable to slopes of thirty
(30) percent or greater, and
(2) As provided in subsections (c)(3) or (c)(4) below.
No development is proposed for slopes with a slope gradient equal to or exceeding forty-five
(45) percent.
(c) Thirty (30) Percent or Greater Gradient
Development is prohibited on slopes with a slope gradient of thirty (30) percent or more, except as follows:
(1) NO ALTERNATIVE BUILDING SITE
If there is no alternative building site available on the parcel with slopes of less than thirty (30) percent,
development (but not roads or driveways) may be approved by the Community Development Department
through the Site Plan process subject to the following development standards:
An engineer or geologist licensed in the State of Colorado shall be required to demonstrate that the site can be
engineered so that there is no hazard posed by the location of development on such slopes.
To the extent possible, the development shall be designed so as to: avoid adding water to the site that would
cause decreased stability; avoid removing the toe of the slope without adequate mechanical support; avoid
increasing the weight load on top of the slope; re -contour disturbed slopes so that they can be re -vegetated;
avoid steepening of existing slopes.
Any development approved pursuant to this section shall be conditioned upon compliance with the engineer or
geologist's recommended mitigation measures.
Following Site Plan review, and prior to the application for a Building Permit, a precise engineer or geologist
approved mitigation plan shall be submitted by the applicant that shows the area of disturbed slope, any re-
grading required and the exact size and location of all mitigation devices. The mitigation measures must be
determined by the Community Development Department to be the least visually and ecologically obtrusive
alternatives.
(2) PARCELS WITH SOME AREAS OF LESS THAN THIRTY (30) PERCENT SLOPES
If a parcel contains areas with less than thirty (30) percent slopes that are accessible by a road or driveway that
meets the requirements of this Land Use Code, but such areas (after exclusion of Constrained Areas) are not
large enough to develop the floor area permitted by underlying zoning, then areas containing slopes of less than

10 Maroon Drive -Activity Envelope
JOOOUv ,
rowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
thirty (30) percent must be utilized to develop as much of the floor area as can feasibly be accommodated.
Areas containing slopes of thirty (30) percent or greater (but not exceeding forty-five (45) percent) may then be
used for development of the remainder of the permitted floor area. The resulting area specified for development
should define a contiguous area with slopes of less than thirty (30) percent to the maximum extent practicable.
Development on slopes equal to or exceeding thirty (30) percent (but less than or equal to forty-five (45) percent)
shall be subject to the development standards in Sec. 7-20-20(c)(1)(a) through (d)., and shall minimize
disruption of natural terrain as viewed from any of those roads identified in Sec. 7-20-120(b).
(3) MINOR SLOPE ANOMALY
Through the Site Plan process, exceptions for minor changes in slope -development may be permitted on lands
that have a slope equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent when the slope is due to the presence of a minor
natural or minor man-made change in the gradient of a continuous slope, provided that an engineer or geologist
licensed in the State of Colorado demonstrates that the slope's ground surface is not prone to instability or
failure and that the proposed development will not cause greater instability or increase the potential for slope
failure.
The Slope Delineation Plan illustrates two areas where minor slope anomalies occur within
the property.
(4) EXISTING ROADS AND DRIVEWAYS
Through the Site Plan process, an exception for minor road and driveway improvements may be permitted to
existing roads and driveways that traverse previously disturbed slopes equal to or in excess of thirty (30)
percent, provided that the applicant demonstrates that all of the following conditions are met:
(a) The road or driveway was legally created, as demonstrated by (i) a valid copy of the permit for the road
or driveway, or (ii) evidence that the road or driveway was constructed prior to the County's road or
driveway permit system in 1993, or (iii) that a permit was not required to construct the road or driveway.
(b) The proposed use of the road is an existing legal use (i.e., if residential development is proposed, it shall
be demonstrated that the road already services an existing, legal residential structure). The current use
of the road or driveway shall not change between residential, commercial, lodging or industrial use. No
road improvements shall be permitted pursuant to this provision to allow the development of any
structure where there is no pre-existing, legal structure (e.g., a mining road orjeep road that provides
access to a vacant parcel shall not be improved pursuant to this provision to create access to a new
residence).
(c) The improvements shall be limited to existing roads and driveways that traverse previously disturbed
slopes equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent and comply, or can comply without impacting slopes
equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent, with the minimum requirements in the Pitkin County Road
Management and Maintenance Plan for width, grade and curvature. New road and driveway
improvements that traverse undisturbed slopes equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent are prohibited.
(d) The improvements shall be minor in scope and shall be the minimum required to ensure the safety of
both the general public and safety agency personnel. Improvements that may be permitted pursuant to
this provision may include, but not be limited to, pullouts, turnarounds or grading, if the road or driveway
otherwise complies with the standards of the Pitkin County Road Management and Maintenance Plan.
Improvements that would create further impacts on slopes equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent in
order to bring an existing road or driveway into compliance with the minimum standards of the Pitkin
County Road Management and Maintenance Plan are prohibited.
(e) An engineer or geologist licensed in the State of Colorado demonstrates that the slope's ground surface
is not prone to instability or failure, and that the proposed improvements will not cause greater instability
or increase the potential for slope failure.
(5) SHORT DRIVEWAY ENCROACHMENTS
Through the Building Permit process, an exception for short driveway encroachments may be permitted as
follows:
(a) This exception may only be utilized where there is no alternative alignment on slopes less than thirty
(30) percent and the proposed driveway is free of all of the following hazards: high hazard avalanche

zone (red zone) and moderate hazard avalanche zone (blue zone), landslide areas, or rockfall areas.
(See Sec. 7-20-50).
(b) For a maximum of one -hundred (100) linear feet per lot or parcel, the driveway may encroach on slopes
between thirty (30) percent and a maximum of forty-five (45) percent gradient. The maximum of one
hundred (100) linear feet of permitted encroachment shall be measured along the centerline of the
driveway.
(c) All development permitted pursuant to this section shall be subject to the development standards of Sec.
7-20-20(c)(1)(a) through (d).
(6) MICRO HYDROELECTRIC SYSTEMS
Construction and maintenance of micro hydroelectric system improvements on steep slopes may be approved
by the BOCC through the Special Review and Site Plan process subject to the following development standards:
(a) An engineer or geologist licensed in the State of Colorado shall be required to demonstrate that the site
can be engineered so that there is no hazard posed by the location of the system components on such
slopes.
(b) To the extent possible, the system components shall be designed so as to: avoid adding water to the
site in a manner that would cause decreased stability; avoid removing the toe of the slope; re -contour
disturbed slopes so that they can be revegetated; avoid steepening of existing slopes.
(c) Any development approved pursuant to this section shall be conditioned upon compliance with the
engineer or geologist's recommended mitigation measures.
(d) Following site plan review and prior to the application for a building permit, a precise engineer or
geologist approved mitigation plan shall be submitted by the applicant that shows the area of disturbed
slope, any re -grading required and the exact size and location of all mitigation devices. The mitigation
measures must be determined to be the least visually and ecologically obtrusive alternatives, and can
include but are not limited to hand -burial or non -burial of transmission pipelines; prohibition of the use of
excavation equipment for foundation improvements; and the positioning of facilities so that vegetation
removal is kept to a minimum.
(T) HABITABLE RETAINING STRUCTURES
Through the Site Plan process, an exception for "habitable retaining structures" and similar types of construction
may be permitted at the toe, or along the base of slopes equal to or in excess of thirty (30) percent, including
slopes in excess of forty-five (45) percent. This section shall not modify other prohibitions on development
including but not limited to those in Section 7-20-50 Geologic Hazards. This section is available only when all of
the following conditions are met:
(a) The property on which the habitable retaining structures are proposed to be built has previously been
developed with a structure(s) that meets County Codes for human habitation and that was built pursuant
to valid County land use approvals and building permits (as applicable).
(b) An engineer or a geologist licensed in the State of Colorado has provided a report demonstrating to the
satisfaction of the BOCC that the site can be engineered so there is no hazard posed by the location of
the proposed habitable retaining structures on such slopes.
(c) The proposed structures shall be designed to function principally as retaining structures, but may also
be permitted for human habitation. A habitable retaining structure that also meets the Code definition of
a residential dwelling unit, or is a structure that would typically be accessory to a residential dwelling
(such as a garage), or any structure that includes plumbing facilities shall not be allowed pursuant to this
sub -section.
(d) The proposed development at the toe or base of the slope shall be designed to avoid adding water to
the site that would cause decreased stability or would increase the weight load on the top of the slope.
(e) Slopes that are disturbed by the proposed development shall be re-contoured so they can be re -
vegetated, and a plan for such re -vegetation shall be provided which restores the exposed slopes to a
stable, natural condition.
(n The proposed habitable retaining structures shall comply with the standards for retaining walls found in
Section 7-20-20 (e) (6) of this Code as applicable, but shall not be subject to the limits on changing
natural grade, the limits on graded, excavated or filled manmade slopes, and the guidelines for retaining
walls found in Section 7-20-20 (e) (2), (3), and (5) of this Code.

This code provision is not applicable to this application,
Section 7-20-50 GEOLOGIC HAZARDS
This code provision is not applicable to this application.
Section 7-20-60 WILDFIRE HAZARDS
This section establishes the standards for development in wildfire hazard areas. The level of hazard is
determined primarily by grade or slope and continuity of fuels. As a general guideline, low hazard is located on
slopes of zero to twenty (0-20) percent with discontinuous fuels; moderate hazard is located on slopes of ten to
twenty (10-20) percent with continuous fuels, or on slopes greater than twenty (20) percent with discontinuous
fuels; and severe hazard is located on slopes of greater than twenty (20) percent with continuous fuels.
(a) Wildfire Hazards Map
Areas of "Severe Wildfire Hazard" and "Low to Medium Wildfire Hazard" are designated on the Pitkin County
adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps, which are maintained in the Community Development Department.
However, the maps are only a general reference, and actual wildfire hazards shall be field verified. In the event
field verification identifies areas of wildfire hazard not identified on such maps, the provisions of this Sec. 7-20-
60 shall apply to such areas. In each case where an applicant's property is located partially or entirely within an
area of "Severe Wildfire Hazard" or "Low to Medium Wildfire Hazard," a wildfire expert acceptable to the County
shall visit the property to evaluate the level of risk in more detail. The wildfire expert may confirm the levels of
risk indicated on the Wildfire Hazard Area Maps, or may recommend that all or a portion(s) of the site be
reclassified to a higher or lower level of wildfire risk. In addition, the wildfire expert shall make recommendations
regarding any mitigation measures that should be implemented in light of the proposed activity or development,
and such recommendations shall be considered by the County in the Site Plan process.
The subject property is classified as a Low to Medium Wildfire Hazard on the Pitkin County
adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps. A Wildfire Hazard Review was conducted in October
2009 by Bluegreen, a County approved wildfire expert, and a letter report prepared that
documents site observations and mitigation recommendations. The Low to Medium Wildfire
Hazard Area designation was verified by the wildfire expert, with the exception of the steeply
sloped area of the property. This portion of the property is determined to be a Severe Wildfire
Hazard area. The Wildfire Hazard Review letter report is included in this application.
(b) Wildfire Hazard Area Delineation and Activity Envelope
If requested by the Community Development Department during a pre -application conference, the Site Plan shall
delineate all areas of "Severe Wildfire Hazard" and "Low to Medium Wildfire Hazard" within the Activity Envelope
and within one hundred (100) feet outside the Activity Envelope. In the case of varying hazard levels within the
Activity Envelope, it shall be sufficient to label the entire Activity Envelope with the highest level hazard existing
in any part of such area. The Activity Envelope should be designed to avoid areas of "Severe Wildfire Hazard",
12
July 20, 2016
10 Maroon Drive - Activity Envelope

rowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
and to mitigate wildfire hazards in areas of "Low to Medium Wildfire Hazard" as set forth in this Sec. 7- 20-60. All
wildfire mitigation and creation of defensible space shall occur within the Activity Envelope.
The proposed Site Plan includes the Low to Medium and Severe Wildfire Hazard delineations.
The Activity Envelope allows compliance with the mitigation and defensible space
recommendations, combined with pruning and/or thinning of vegetation outside of the Activity
Envelope. The recommended pruning and/or thinning will be flagged by Bluegreen and
reviewed with County staff prior to performing work.
(c) Standards Applicable to All Wildfire Hazard Areas
Development is allowed in wildfire hazard areas subject to conformance with the following development
standards, (which may be varied upon recommendation by the wildfire expert), and conformance with the
additional standards in subsection (d) as applicable.
(1) DEFENSIBLE SPACE
The area around all buildings/structures, limited by property boundaries that may limit a property owner's ability
to comply with this section, shall incorporate landscaping with wildfire defensible space considerations as follows
(note: actual vegetation manipulation to meet these conditions may not be necessary where the natural
vegetation patterns have already fulfilled these conditions):
(a) Brush, debris and non -ornamental vegetation shall be removed within a minimum ten foot (10')
perimeter around all structures.
(b) Vegetation shall be reduced to break up the vertical and horizontal continuity of the fuels at a minimum
of a thirty (30) foot perimeter around a structure built on flat ground. (For greater slopes, reference the
CSFS Safety Zone chart in Wildfire Guidelines For Rural Homeowners, which provides general
guidelines that may be modified by a wildfire expert acceptable to the County).
(c) Spacing between clumps of brush and vegetation up to the thirty (30) foot perimeter shall be a minimum
of two (2) times the height of the fuel. Maximum diameter of the clumps shall be equal to the height of
the fuel. All measurements shall be from the edges of the crowns of the fuel.
(d) All branches from trees and brush within the thirty (30) foot perimeter shall be pruned to a height of ten
(10) feet above the ground with removal of ladder fuels from around trees and brush.
(e) Tree crown separation within the thirty (30) foot perimeters shall have a minimum of ten (10) feet
between the edges of the crowns, except for mature stands of aspen trees where ladder fuels have
been removed. In areas of aspen regeneration, understory shrubs and down and dead materials shall
be removed.
(fJ All branches that extend over the roof eaves shall be trimmed and all branches within fifteen (15) feet of
chimneys shall be removed.
(g) The density of fuels up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter of the structures shall be reduced where
natural reduction has not already occurred.
(h) All deadfall up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter shall be removed.
(i) No new conifer trees shall be planted within ten (10) feet of a residence.
Q) No flammable mulches shall be placed within two (2) feet of a residence.
(k) The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of the defensible space
vegetation requirements.
(2) ACCESS
(a) Access roads and driveways shall be built to County standards; however, these standards may be
increased to mitigate wildfire hazards based on comments provided by the Colorado State Forest
Service, the Sheriffs Department, local fire protection districts and/or a person approved by the County
as an expert in wildfire area designation and mitigation. Where feasible, looped routes of access/egress
to a public road shall be incorporated in the design of a proposed development. Looped routes of
access/egress is defined as two (2) or more dedicated access roads to the main artery/highway for
widely separated ingress/egress; looped drives with one (1) entrance point or divided single entrances
do not satisfy this condition. Where this is not feasible, the Community Development Department may
approve vehicular turnaround areas a maximum of seven hundred fifty (750) feet apart installed between
13

rowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
the road intersection and its terminus. Turnaround areas shall be the same standard as cul-de-sac
turnaround pads; these may be incorporated into the proposed driveway entries.
(b) New dead-end streets shall not be permitted, except for cul-de-sacs and other turnarounds accepted by
the applicable local fire district.
(c) Cul-de-sac turnaround pads shall have a minimum of a thirty (30) foot drivable surface inside turning
radius or a hammerhead or other T -turn area acceptable to the applicable local fire district.
(d) New driveways and access roadway shall enter the roadway at a ninety -degree (90°) angle for the first
twenty-five (25) feet of the driveway.
(e) Fuel breaks as recommended by a wildfire expert approved by the County may be incorporated into the
design of access roads or driveways.
(3) WATER SUPPLY FOR FIRE SAFETY
(a) When access to a public or private pressurized water system is not available or if it is necessary to
augment fire protection water systems, private ponds may be used if approved by the Community
Development Department and the local fire district.
(b) Any fire department recommendation for individual structure water supply and storage shall be
accessible to fire department vehicles from the exterior of the structure through a fire department
approved mechanism (such as a fire hydrant). The amount of storage capacity shall be determined by
the fire protection district with a minimum of one thousand (1,000) gallon storage capacity per structure.
(c) Regardless of size, all structures (including detached garages and horse barns) where humans
congregate regularly that are located within areas identified as containing "C-- Severe Hazard: Trees" or
"X --Severe Hazard: Brush" wildfire hazard shall be required to install in-house sprinkler systems that
meet the standards of the local fire protection district and the adopted Building Code.
(d) All structures greater than five thousand (5,000) square feet in size shall be required to install in-house
sprinkler systems that meet the standards of the local fire protection district and the adopted Building
Code. At building permit submittal, the local fire protection district may require smaller structures to be
sprinkled due to hazard considerations, emergency access difficulties and lack of proximity to fire
protection services.

Section 7-20-120 SCENIC VIEW PROTECTION
Preservation of the character of Pitkin County requires careful attention to the visible impacts of proposed
development. In general, the standards of this Sec. 7-20-120 are designed to minimize the visual impact of new
development (including expansions to existing structures) when viewed from designated road corridors, as well
as to preserve the rural character of all Rural Areas of the county. Scenic View Protection Areas shall be
considered at the time of Site Plan approval and Building Permit issuance.
(a) Intent
The intent of this Sec. 7-20-120 is:
(1) To establish a Scenic View Protection Area that includes lands that are proximate to and most visible
from specific roads in the County, with specific concerns for the areas that constitute the visual entrance
"image" and passage through Aspen and Pitkin County as well as views of ridgelines from those roads.
(2) To maintain a natural ridgeline silhouette against the sky and to steer development away from ridgelines
and skylines throughout the County as viewed from public roadway corridors.
(3) To insure that new development is designed and located to complement the natural landscape and the
natural features within the public viewplane in order to achieve an aesthetically pleasing, rural
atmosphere.
(4) To reduce visual damage to the natural landforms and views throughout the County.
(b) Applicability
All areas shown on the County's Scenic View Protection Area maps, which are maintained in the Community
Development Department, shall comply with the standards of subsection (d) below. The Scenic View Protection
Area map includes scenic foreground areas, public viewplanes, and ridgelines. The mapped areas are identified
as viewed from the following rights-of-way:
(a) State Highway 82;
17

architecture and urban design
(b) Brush Creek Road;
(c) Capitol Creek Road;
(d) Snowmass Creek Road;
(e) State Highway 133;

(g) Castle Creek Road;
(h) Maroon Creek Road;
(i) West and East Sopris Creek Roads;
G) Owl Creek Road;
(k) Upper and Lower River Roads;
(I) McLain Flats Road; and
(m) Woody Creek Road.
The subject property is located within the State Highway 82 Scenic View Protection Area.
All development in the Rural Area shall be sited in consideration of the rural character guidelines of subsection
(e) below.
(c) Exemptions
These standards shall not apply to:
(1) Activity or development that is covered by a valid building permit.
(2) All interior remodels that do not change any outside visual aspect of the structure.
(3) Lots within platted subdivisions approved by the County, which have designated Activity, Builcing or
Development Envelopes, unless the terms of the approval require ridgeline or scenic review ploy to
construction.
(4) Any proposed development for which the Community Development Director determines that:
a. The proposed development is not visible from those rights-of-way listed in subsection (b) above;
or
b. A proposed addition to or remodel of an existing structure has been located to minimize
perceived mass when viewed from those rights-of-way listed in subsection (b) above. For
purposes of this section, visible means that a structure or use is discernible to the naked eye
from the designated roadway.
(d) Standards for Development Within Scenic View Protection Areas
All non-exempt development located within a mapped Scenic View Protection Area shall comply with the
following standards.
(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-ways
listed in subsection (b) above.
Existing natural and installed vegetation is preserved to help screen the residence from State
Highway 82. Proposed vegetation is located to further screen the proposed residence from
view, to the extent practicable, given wildfire mitigation constraints.
(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.
The applicant's lot is situated within the Scenic View Protection Area. The lot is located at a
similar elevation to State Highway 82, therefore occupying the valley corridor. The location in
no way impacts the ridgelines visible from State Highway 82. Existing residences and ample
18

rowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
vegetation line both sides of State Highway 82 and the subject property is located
perpendicular to the road with minimal disruption to the existing views. A residence already
occupies the site and can be seen from the same location on State Highway 82.
The only portion of the lot that is at a lower elevation is located on a steep and unstable slope,
defined as a constrained area, thereby making development on this portion of the property
impossible.
(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
facades to avoid a wall or row effect, and staggering rooflines to avoid a long unbroken plane.
The proposed residence has been designed to minimize the perceived height and bulk of the
structure. With only one story above grade the building sits modestly next to it's neighbors on
Maroon Drive. The facades of the proposed residence are broken into smaller forms, with the
articulation of taller elements that define the programmed space within. Glazing is broken into
clerestory and banded elements. The use of an outdoor patio space with an overhang also
helps break the horizontal reading of the primary facade facing State Highway 82.
(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 applicant's property is not set near a ridgeline as viewed from the protected corridors.
The subject property is located at a similar elevation as State Highway 82, therefore
occupying the valley corridor.
(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.
This property does not have variations in the topography except as it drops steeply towards
Pyramid Road. The developable portion of the lot does not allow for earth -sheltered design.
However, the shape and materials of the proposed residence will make the house blend into
the surrounding vegetation. The facade and roof will be treated with low -reflective, natural -
toned elements.
(6) The proposed development shall preserve natural vegetation and avoid development within irrigated
meadows, to the maximum extent practicable.
The proposed improvements to the site preserve the natural vegetation visible from State
Highway 82.
(7) The proposed development shall install utilities in locations and through procedures that minimize visual
impacts to the maximum extent practicable.
Utilities that serve the existing structure will be used for the proposed residence. Any
additional utilities located on -grade are sited to minimize their visibility and also will be
screened with vegetation.

architecture and urban design
(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 future dish will comply with Pitkin County regulations regarding screening and minimizing
the visual impact.
(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.
Low, naturally appearing berms are proposed. Berming is combined with vegetation to
facilitate compliance with this code provision. These berms will not be visible from State
Highway 82.
(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 (f) as they may apply to the particular property.
This provision is not applicable as the subject property is located within the Aspen Urban
Growth Boundary.
(11) Earth Tone Materials
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
weather barn wood also shall be permitted.
The shape and materials of the proposed residence will make the house blend into the
surrounding vegetation. The facade and roof will be treated with low -reflective, natural -toned
elements.
(12) Roofs
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.
The shape and materials of the proposed residence will make the house blend into the
surrounding vegetation. The facade and roof will be treated with low -reflective, natural -toned
elements. There are photovoltaic panels proposed for the roof, although the specified panels
are a matte finish and should not contribute to unwanted reflection off the roof. In addition, the
panels are oriented away from State Highway 82.
(13) Revegetation of Disturbed Areas
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.
The areas to be disturbed will be revegetated using native and/or hardy species found on and
near the site, and in accordance with the Pitkin County Revegetation Guide. The property is

architecture and urban design
currently developed with a single-family residence. Irrigation will be used to establish and
maintain the planted species.
(14) Driveways Avoid Dividing Meadows and Pastures
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 existing driveway alignment is reused for the proposed development. The existing
driveway uses a straight line corridor that is appropriate to this site's relatively flat topography
and neighborhood context.
(e) Rural Character Guidelines for Building Location
This code provision is not applicable to this application.
Section 7-20-130 LANDSCAPING AND VEGETATION PROTECTION
All development in Pitkin County shall comply with the Pitkin County Landscape Guidelines and portions of
development adjacent to public roads shall comply with the Roadway Landscaping Guidelines contained in the
Pitkin County Asset Management Plan. In case of conflict between the provisions of these two documents and
the standards below, the guideline documents shall apply.
(a) Purpose
These regulations are intended to preserve existing vegetation on development sites to the maximum extent
consistent with the permitted development, and to ensure that specific types of man made improvements are
screened from view in order to preserve the rural character of the County, and to prevent the use of landscaping
in ways that would compromise the rural character of the County.
(b) General Provisions
(1) PROTECTION OF NATURAL VEGETATION
In order to protect the rural character of Pitkin County, natural vegetation should be preserved to the maximum
extent practicable, and any installed landscaping shall use the species plant materials naturally occurring on the
site or on neighboring properties (except for flower gardens). Restrictions on removal of natural vegetation, and
requirements for revegetation, are set forth in other portions of this Chapter 7.
The property, located within the Aspen Urban Growth Boundary, is also located within an existing subdivision
and is currently developed with a single-family residence. Natural vegetation is preserved in all areas located
outside of the proposed activity envelope, with the exception of necessary wildfire mitigation. Installed plant
materials will be similar to those found on site and on neighboring properties.
(2) CONFORMANCE WITH WILDFIRE REGULATIONS
In the event the provisions of this Sec. 7-20-130 conflict with any provisions of Sec. 7-20-60, as those
requirements may be varied by a wildfire expert approved by the County, the provisions of Sec. 7-20-60 shall
govern.
The existing and proposed vegetation and installed plant materials meets the mitigation
recommendations specified by the project's wildfire expert.

(3) BERMS
Berms may be incorporated into any required landscaping, buffering, or screening area, provided that the
County determines, during the development approval process, that the proposed berms will not cause drainage
or erosion problems. No installed berm shall have a slope of greater than four -to one (4:1), nor a height greater
than four (4) feet above grade.
Berms are included in the proposed site improvements. They are not greater than four (4) feet
above grade or steeper than four -to -one (4: 1).
(4) LANDSCAPE ENCLOSURES
Landscaping shall not be used to mark or enclose the boundary of a parcel, or to privatize an otherwise public
viewplane. Use of indigenous shrubs or trees to enclose a portion of the property immediately surrounding a
dwelling, barn, and/or accessory buildings (as opposed to the entire property or a large area of the prcperty) are
permitted if made to resemble similar windbreaks located near older properties in Rural Areas of the County.
The landscape is proposed to visually screen Maroon Drive and neighboring structures, while
not obstructing public viewplanes. The proposed landscape is also similar in character to
that of neighboring properties.
(5) VISIBILITY CLEARANCE
All landscaping shall be installed and maintained so that it does not interfere with the ability of drivers to see
nearby traffic at the intersection of any driveway with a public road, or at the intersection of two public roads.
The proposed landscape will comply with this code provision as the proposed driveway meets
Maroon Drive, a private drive serving the Tennis Club Subdivision.
(6) UTILITY EASEMENTS
Whenever the provisions of this Sec. 7-20-130 would require the installation of trees or shrubs over or on utility
easements, where branches or roots might interfere with utility lines or pipes, the required location for such trees
and shrubs shall be modified to require installation at the closest location that would avoid potential conflicts with
utilities and would enable the trees and shrubs to serve the same landscaping purpose.
The proposed landscape is designed to minimize interference with utility easements.
(7) FINANCIAL SECURITY
The Community Development Department may require financial security in a form acceptable to the County
Attorney to ensure completion of installation of all required landscaping and/or successful establishment of
plants.
Financial security will not be necessary to ensure completion of the landscape and its
successful establishment. This will be the applicants primary home and it is in his best interest
to install the required plant materials and to ensure their success.
(8) MAINTENANCE
All plants shall be maintained continually in a healthy condition in accordance with generally accepted
professional horticultural standards and practices. Within areas required to be landscaped with installed plant
materials, plants that die or are unhealthy shall be replaced. Landscape areas shall remain free of weeds, litter,
junk, rubbish and other nuisances and obstructions.
The applicant will comply with this code provision.
(c) Required Landscaping in Rural Areas

Section 7-20-140 LIGHTING
(a) Applicability
The standards in this Sec. 7-20-140 are applicable to all lighting in Pitkin County. No lighting shall be installed or
continued that violates the standards of this section.
(b) Bulb Visibility
All exterior lighting shall be designed so that the bulb (point light source) is not directly visible from adjacent and
neighboring properties or public rights-of-way. This can be accomplished using fixtures that "fully shield" the bulb
behind opaque shielding (i.e., the light distribution is primarily down and/or up directed) or which utilize non -
transparent diffusion material (e.g. glass, acrylic, or polycarbonate) in the case of fixtures with some sort of
translucent lens(es) around the bulb compartment. In the case of opaque shielding, wattage shall be limited to
sixty (60) incandescent watts per fixture or twenty-five (25) compact fluorescent watts.
(c) Light Trespass
Light trespass is defined as the shining of light produced by a light fixture beyond the horizontal boundaries of
the property on which it is located and vertically above the property. For all types of uses, light level shall be no
greater than one-half (1/2) of a foot-candle at the property line.
(d) Maximum Heights and Intensities
Maximum heights and intensities of lighting shall conform to the following table.
Area Overhead Feet Intensity
in
Foot-
candles
Public Parking Lots 12--15 0--0.5
Pedestrian Walkways and 4 0.1 --
Driveways 0.5
Vehicular Intersections 20--25 0.5--

V J v —
rowland+broughton
architecture and urban design
To light a primary entrance, when the lighting fixture is wall -mounted under an architectural element (e.g., roofs
over walkways/entries or overhanging, non -translucent eaves) and that this element contains the illumination,
and
To light flags, when no more than two light fixtures per flag are used, with a maximum of one hundred fifty (150)
watts each. The fixture must be shielded such that the point source is not visible outside a fifteen foot (16)
radius.
(f) Highlighting
Illumination of building facades, driveways, and landscaping shall be prohibited. Lighting intended to illuminate
the Roaring Fork, Frying Pan and Crystal Rivers or their tributaries shall be prohibited.
(g) Floodlighting
Floodlighting is only permitted when it is down -directed and controlled by a motion sensor that is triggered by
activity within the owner's property lines, and when fully -shielded such that the light source is not visible from
adjacent and/or neighboring properties. Ground -mounted floodlighting of a structure is prohibited.
(h) Safety and Security Lighting
The use of motion sensors, photocells, or photocell/ timers to control duration of nighttime illumination is required
for safety and security lighting. In all cases, light intensity shall be limited to between one and two (2) foot-
candles.
Motion Sensors are the preferred method for controlling nighttime illumination. These are only permitted where
the sensor is triggered by activity within the owner's property lines.
Photocells are only permitted under the following conditions:
At primary points of entrance (e.g., front entries) or in critical common areas for commercial and multi -family
properties;
Where the light sources are fully shielded by opaque material (i.e., the fixture illuminates the area but is not itself
visibly bright);
For residential properties, the light source is fluorescent (or compact fluorescent) to eliminate excess electricity
consumption; and
For non-residential properties, HID light sources (high pressure sodium and metal halide) may be used instead
of fluorescent lighting.
Timer/Photocell Combinations are a preferred method when used for nighttime control at primary points of
entrance (e.g., front entries) and may be used with fully shielded lighting fixtures with non -transparent diffusion
material.
(f) Properties Adjacent to Public Rights of Way
In addition to being in compliance with the above sections, no exterior lighting may be used in any manner that
could interfere with the safe movement of motor vehicles on public thoroughfares. Specifically, the following is
prohibited:
Any light not designed for roadway illumination that produces direct or reflected glare that could be disturbing to
the operator of a motor vehicle.
Any light that may be confused with or construed as a traffic control device except as authorized by State,
Federal, or County government.
a) Mercury Vapor and Low Pressure Sodium Sources
These light sources are prohibited.
(k) Non -Residential and/or Mixed Residential and Commercial Fixture Heights and Types
Fixture heights (as measured from grade to the bottom face of a fixture) shall be ten (10) feet or less in height, or
the fixture must be fully shielded ("cutoff'), non-adjustable, and down -directed (or building mounted and directed
back at a facade). For the following special use areas, the specified heights shall apply:
(1) PUBLIC PARKING LOTS
Lights shall be between twelve (12) feet and fifteen (15) feet high. Light intensity shall be between zero (0) and
one-half (1/2) foot-candles.
(2) PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS
The preferred option is for low-level "bollard" or pipe -mounted fixtures that are fully shielded and down -directed
and have a maximum of four (4) feet height and minimum spacing of twenty-five (25) feet. If pole -mounted
fixtures are desired, ten (10) feet is the maximum height with a minimum spacing of fifty (50) feet. Pole -mounted

RE: 10 Maroon Wildfire Hazard Review
E O Dear Courtney:
U m
E o
a m I am pleased to present this wildfire hazard review letter report for the residence
e at 10 Maroon. The project site is currently developed but is identified for
d improvements, including a new (replacement) single-family residence, outdoor
d a terrace, gardens and vegetated screening for County Scenic View Protection from
3 m Highway 82 and HOA screening from Maroon Drive. I have reviewed the parcel's
— existing conditions, including topography, vegetation, built improvements and the
3 ; proposed site plan. My observations are based on a site visit and technical
information made available to me by the consultant team.
Current/ Proposed Conditions
The subject property was visited on August 19, 2009. The property is not mapped
on the Pitkin County adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps (1997 Colorado Forest
Service). Based on my site visit the majority of the site is considered to be'Low
m Hazard' as it is typified by moderate slopes and mesic vegetation. The western
N quarter of the parcel is considered to be a'Severe Wildfire Hazard' condition for its
t steep slopes and continuous horizontal and vertical fuel paths.

0
o The topography found on site are as illustrated on the site survey. Occupying a
site above Maroon Creek, slopes are relatively flat for the majority of the parcel.
Slopes exceeding 15% and ranging as high as 60%, are found along the western
edge of the parcel where the topography slopes continuously down to Pyramid
Road and Maroon Creek. Man-made berms, approximately 4 -feet in height, border
the north and south property lines from Maroon Drive to the top edge of the
western slope.
The vegetation found on site is primarily native grasses and Sage. Mature
Serviceberry, Gambel Oak and native grasses dominate the steep western slope.
Mature irrigated conifer and aspen trees can be found near the existing residence.
It is understood that some of these mature trees will be preserved. The man-
made berms found along the adjoining north and south property lines are irrigated
and densely planted with conifers and aspens for visual screening purposes.
The proposed site plan shows the new residence situated near the top edge of the
western slope. The steep continuous grades and vertical and horizontal continuity
000069
of down-slope fuel paths associated with this area will require a combination of
wildfire hazard mitigation techniques, including the creation of defensible space,
and special structural design and construction techniques. General mitigation
measures relative to site design and construction are outlined below along with
specific techniques for mitigating the 'Severe Wildfire' condition. Overall, the
prescribed mitigation measures provide a balance between adequate wildfire
mitigation and County and HOA scenic screening requirements.
Mitigation Recommendations
Defensible Space - Western Slope
For the areas situated west and down-slope of new construction the following
mitigation requirements shall provide a zone of defensible space, protecting new
construction from wildfires, while maintaining a smooth visual transition between
the development and the adjacent natural vegetation.
From the top edge of the western slope and extending thirty (30) feet down-slope:
o Maintain natural and/or irrigated grass at less than six (6) inches and thin
existing trees and shrubs into discrete clumps.
o Maintain separation between tree and shrub clumps by a distance no less
than 2.5 times the height of the mature vegetation.
o Tree limbs shall be pruned to one half the height of the tree or ten (10)
feet, whichever is less.
o Remove all brush, which when mature, will be tall enough to act as ladder
fuels to clumps.
All branches of existing/ preserved trees that extend over the roof eaves
shall be trimmed and all branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall
be removed.
o All down-slope deadfall shall be removed.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the down slope vegetation requirements.
c New woody vegetation shall not be planted in this area except for specific
Highway 82 Scenic View Protection purposes with the following conditions:
o New screening shall be sited along the northern property line on
slopes no greater than 15% and no closer than twenty (20) feet to
new construction.
o Maintain down-slope spacing to trees and shrubs clumps as
described above.
o All new shrubs or trees are to be irrigated to keep fuel moistures
high.
Defensible Space - General
o Brush, debris and non -ornamental vegetation shall be removed within a
minimum fifteen (15) foot perimeter around all structures and the drip line
of any preserved trees within this offset.
o Spacing between clumps of brush and vegetation up to the thirty (30) foot
perimeter shall be a minimum of two (2) times the height of the fuel.
Maximum diameter of the clumps shall be equal to the height of the fuel.
All measurements shall be from the edges of the crowns of the fuel.
o All branches from trees and brush within the thirty (30) foot perimeter
shall be pruned to a height of ten (10) feet above the ground with removal
of ladder fuels from around trees and brush.
o Tree crown separation within the thirty (30) foot perimeters shall have a
minimum of ten (10) feet between the edges of the crowns, except for
mature stands of aspen trees where ladder fuels have been removed. In
areas of aspen regeneration, understory shrubs and down and dead
materials shall be removed.
o All branches that extend over the roof eaves shall be trimmed and all
branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall be removed.
o The density of fuels up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter of the
structures shall be reduced where natural reduction has not already
occurred.
o All deadfall up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter shall be removed.
o No new conifer trees shall be planted within ten (10) feet of a residence.
o Flammable mulches (wood chips) are not allowed within two (2) feet of the
residence.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the general vegetation requirements.
Access
o Because the property lies within the Urban Growth Boundary, access roads
and driveways shall be built to City of Aspen standards. Standards may be
increased based on comment by local fire protection district input for
emergency vehicle access.
o Conifers are not allowed within fifteen (15) feet of the driveway (except at
the Maroon Drive access for visual screening of the garage and residence).
o Low vegetation (grasses, ground covers and shrubs) shall be kept mowed
to less than six (6) inches within ten (10) feet of either side of the
driveway.
Water Supply for Fire Safety
o The subdivision is supplied with pressurized water through a fire hydrant
system.
Structural Design Materials and Construction Techniques
Due to the close up -hill proximity of the proposed development to the severe wildfire
hazard, important structural and construction techniques must be implemented to make
the new residence more fire -resistive where it faces or closely adjoins the west slope.
Severe wildfire construction techniques and materials shall be implemented for all portions
D00071
of the building that fall within a thirty seven (37) foot offset from the top of slope. This
calculation assumes:
o Average slope (and indirect uphill convective and radiant energy path) of 45%
o Roof line of seventeen (17) feet

RE: 10 Maroon Wildfire Hazard Review
Dear Courtney:
ATTACHMENT 1
I am pleased to present this wildfire hazard review letter report for the residence
at 10 Maroon. The project site is currently developed but Is Identified for
improvements, including a new (replacement) single-family residence, outdoor
terrace, gardens and vegetated screening for County Scenic View Protection from
Highway 82 and HOA screening from Maroon Drive. I have reviewed the parcel's
existing conditions, Including topography, vegetation, built Improvements and the
proposed site plan. My observations are based on a site visit and technical
Information made available to me by the consultant team.
Current/ Proposed Conditions
The subject property was visited on August 19, 2009. The property Is not mapped
on the Pitkin County adopted Wildfire Hazard Area Maps (1997 Colorado Forest
Service). Based on my site visit the majority of the site is considered to be 'Low
Hazard' as it is typified by moderate slopes and mesic vegetation. The western
quarter of the parcel is considered to be a 'Severe Wildfire Hazard' condition for its
steep slopes and continuous horizontal and vertical fuel paths.
The topography found on site are as illustrated on the site survey. Occupying a
site above Maroon Creek, slopes are relatively flat for the majority of the parcel.
Slopes exceeding 15% and ranging as high as 60%, are found along the western
edge of the parcel where the topography slopes continuously down to Pyramid
Road and Maroon Creek. Man-made berms, approximately 4 -feet in height, border
the north and south property lines from Maroon Drive to the top edge of the
western slope.
The vegetation found on site Is primarily native grasses and Sage. Mature
Serviceberry, Gambel Oak and native grasses dominate the steep western slope.
Mature Irrigated conifer and aspen trees can be found near the existing residence.
It is understood that some of these mature trees will be preserved. The man-
made berms found along the adjoining north and south property lines are Irrigated
and densely planted with conifers and aspens for visual screening purposes.
The proposed site plan shows the new residence situated near the top edge of the
vvestern slope. The steep continuous grades and vertical and horizontal continuity

of down-slope fuel paths associated with this area will require a combination of
wildfire hazard mitigation techniques, including the creation of defensible space,
and special structural design and construction techniques. General mitigation
measures relative to site design and construction are outlined below along with
specific techniques for mitigating the 'Severe Wildfire' condition. Overall, the
prescribed mitigation measures provide a balance between adequate wildfire
mitigation and County and HOA scenic screening requirements.
Mitigation Recommendations
Defensible Space - Western Slope
For the areas situated west and down-slope of new construction the following
mitigation requirements shall provide a zone of defensible space, protecting new
construction from wildfires,. while maintaining a smooth visual transition between
the development and the adjacent natural vegetation.
From the top edge of the western slope and extending thirty (30) feet down-slope:
c Maintain natural and/or irrigated grass at less than six (6) inches and thin
existing trees and shrubs into discrete clumps.
o Maintain separation between tree and shrub clumps by a distance no less
than 2.5 times the height of the mature vegetation.
o Tree limbs shall be pruned to one half the height of the tree or ten (10)
feet, whichever is less.
o Remove all brush, which when mature, will be tall enough to act as ladder
fuels to clumps.
o All branches of existing/preserved trees that extend over the roof eaves
shall be trimmed and all branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall
be removed.
o All down-slope deadfall shall be removed.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the down slope vegetation requirements.
o New woody vegetation shall not be planted in this area except for specific
Highway 82 Scenic View Protection purposes with the following conditions:
o New screening shall be sited along the northern property line on
slopes no greater than 15% and no closer than twenty (20) feet to
new construction.
o Maintain down-slope spacing to trees and shrubs clumps as
described above.
o All new shrubs or trees are to be irrigated to keep fuel moistures
high.
Defensible Soace - General
o Brush, debris and non -ornamental vegetation shall be removed within a
minimum fifteen (15) foot perimeter around all structures and the drip line
of any preserved trees within this offset.
10 maroon wildfire hazard review 20 October 2009 p. Z of 7
U5 -'ZOIC)
e Spacing between clumps of brush and vegetation up to the thirty (30) foot
perimeter shall be a minimum of two (2) times the height of the fuel.
Maximum diameter of the clumps shall be equal to the height of the fuel.
All measurements shall be from the edges of the crowns of the fuel.
o All branches from trees and brush within the thirty (30) foot perimeter
shall be pruned to a height of ten (10) feet above the ground with removal
of ladder fuels from around trees and brush.
o Tree crown separation within the thirty (30) foot perimeters shall have a
minimum of ten (10) feet between the edges of the crowns, except for
mature stands of aspen trees where ladder fuels have been removed. In
areas of aspen regeneration, understory shrubs and down and dead
materials shall be removed.
u All branches that extend over the roof eaves shall be trimmed and all
branches within fifteen (15) feet of chimneys shall be removed.
c The density of fuels up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter of the
structures shall be reduced where natural reduction has not already
occurred.
o All deadfall up to a one hundred (100) foot perimeter shall be removed.
o No new conifer trees shall be planted within ten (10) feet of a residence.
o Flammable mulches (wood chips) are not allowed within two (2) feet of the
residence.
o The property owner shall be responsible for the continued maintenance of
the general vegetation requirements.
Access
o Because the property lies within the Urban Growth Boundary, access roads
and driveways shall be built to City of Aspen standards. Standards may be
increased based on comment by local fire protection district input for
emergency vehicle access.
Conifers are not allowed within fifteen (15) feet of the driveway (except at
the Maroon Drive access for visual screening of the garage and residence).
o Low vegetation (grasses, ground covers and shrubs) shall be kept mowed
to less than six (6) inches within ten (10) feet of either side of the
driveway.
Water Supply for Fire Safety
o The subdivision is supplied with pressurized water through a fire hydrant
system.
Structural Design. Materials and Construction Techniques
Due to the close up -hill proximity of the proposed development to the severe wildfire
hazard, important structural and construction techniques must be implemented to make
the new residence more fire -resistive where it faces or closely adjoins the west slope.
Severe wildfire construction techniques and materials shall be implemented for all portions

PITKIN COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
AGREEMENT FOR PAYMENT OF LAND USE APPLICATION FEES
PITKIN COUNTY (hereinafter "COUNTY") and Matt and Anna Freedman
(hereinafter "APPLICANT") AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. APPLICANT has submitted to COUNTY an application for 10 Maroon Drive
(hereinafter, the "PROJECT").
2. APPLICANT understands and agrees that Pitkin County Ordinance No. 008-2008
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 $ 3,744 which is based on 12 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.

Hi Alex,

Can you please confirm a correct address for me on Maroon Drive? We had a planning application submittal, but I'm
getting two different addresses for this parcel number.... no CDU that I can find. The parcel number is 2735-111-01-002.
On the Assessor's web page, it gives an address of 10 Maroon Drive. In our Eden system, I get 27 Maroon Drive. On
the County GIS website, I initially get 10 Maroon Drive, but when I click on parcel overlay, it shows 27 Maroon Drive. If
you can help me with this, I would really appreciate it. Time is somewhat of the essence since this is a planning
application.
Thank you,

Hi Kristi and Mike,
After investigating 10127 Maroon Dr, I have determined that the proper address for this property is 27 Maroon Dr. This
was updated from 10 Maroon Dr in April of 2010 by Community Development and seemingly was not properly updated in
all of the address databases. I have reached out the Applicant informing them that 27 needs to be used moving forward,
and will be issuing a formal Address Verification later today to ensure that everyone will be using the proper address
moving forward. Let me know if there are any questions.

Bonnie,
Below are the comments for the proposed development at 27 Maroon Dr.:
1. With the proposed additional square footage, utility upgrades will be necessary. The water service line will have to
be upsized most likely. A plan showing all utility upgrades will be required at building permit and reviewed through the
City utility review of County building permits.
2. Fire calculations will be required at building permit in order verify necessity of water service line.
3. Electrical service/capacity will also need to be addressed at building permit
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to comment on the project at this stage. Please let me know if you need anything
more from us moving forward. Thanks.

RE: 27 Maroon Drive LLC Activity Envelope and Site Plan Review with Vesting (PID 2735-
111-01-002; Case P063-16)
Dear Mike,
Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) has reviewed the proposed Activity Envelope and Site Plan
with Scenic Review for 27 Maroon Drive. The applicant is proposing to obtain Site Plan and
Scenic Review approval for construction of a 8,179 sq. ft. single family home in place of the
existing 1,541 sq. ft. home.
Based on CPW's Species Activity Maps (SAM), CPW feels that this residence will not have any
direct effects on threatened, endangered, or other wildlife.
CPW stresses that the applicant adhere to all other Pitkin County land use code requirements
that relate to wildlife, specifically black bears. Important measures include:
1. Install round -handled door knobs on all exterior doorways.
2. Prohibit all berry, nut, and fruit producing trees or shrubs for landscaping.
3. Use only bear -proof dumpsters and store trash securely until morning of pickup.
4. During construction all food trash must be stored in a bear -proof container or taken off
site at each day's end.
5. Contractors should not be allowed to take dogs on-site during construction; after
construction all dogs must either be kenneled or leashed.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife appreciates the opportunity to comment on this project. If there
are any questions or needs for additional information, don't hesitate to contact Land Use
Specialist, Taylor Elm, at (970) 947-2971 or District Wildlife Manager, Kurtis Tesch, at
