Now that Mr. Kaufman's house is completed, a problem has been discovered that results in a major energy drain, as well as a health problem for Mr. Kaufman. When the large front entry doors are open, cold air and wind whip through the house. Mr. Kaufman is from back east, and was not familiar with the severity of the weather in Aspen. Unfortunately, architects were changed halfway through the project, and this matter was overlooked. This results in a health hazard for Mr. Kaufman, who is in his 70s, as well as substantial energy loss. For these reasons, we are seeking an FAR variance. There are 24 sq.ft. of FAR remaining, and the airlock being requested requires 64 sq.ft., so we are requesting a variance of 40 sq.ft. The existing situation creates a hardship for the owner, given his advanced age and health, and also creates a major energy problem. We have retained the services of an energy consultant who has examined the project. He will be at the meeting to describe the energy savings associated with the proposed airlock. We seek the minimum variance in order to correct this problem. As you can see from the attached drawings, there is no visual difference, since an existing overhang is being utilized. It is impractical and less efficient to create an interior two- story vestibule. We believe that this small FAR variance is necessary to alleviate a health hardship to the owner, and will result in a significant energy improvement. I have also enclosed a check for $105.00, eleven copies of all items required for the Board of Adjustment, including legal Ms. Joanna Shaffner March 6, 1996 Page 2 description, survey, and floor plans of the house, as well as a list of adjacent property owners and stamped, addressed envelopes. if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Otherwise, I hope this item will be placed on the April, 1996 Board of Adjustment agenda. Thank you for your help and consideration. Very truly yours, LAW OF ICES OF KAUFMAN & PETERSON, P.

Property Location: Lot 1, Cheek Subdivision. Submitted to the Aspen Times on Mazch 19, 1996. To Be Published in the Aspen Times on Mazch 23, 1996. Pitldn County Account MINUTES Pitkin County Board of Adjustment April 2, 1996 Members Present: Michael Cooper Shira Geller Paul Rudnick Rod Dyer Ellie Brickham Bill Luker Staff: Joanna Schaffner, Zoning Officer Vicki Chavka, Acting Secretary Lukes opened the meeting, indicating that Geller would vote on the first case, Rudnick on the second, Geller on the third. Case #96-08, Alex Kaufman, Lot 1 Cheek Subdivision Luker introduced the case which requests approval for a FAR variance of 40 square feet where a maximum of 7227 square feet is allowed fora 1.3641ot in the R-30 zone district, for the construction of an airlock on an existing sing-family residence. Schaffner explained that the applicant wants to drop walls under the existing front porch roof which would add approximately 40 sq. ft. She indicated she had received a letter from an adjacent property owner. Luker read the letter from John W. Kronin, Jr., into the record, which stated that Kronin had no objections to the proposed glass enclosure and the requested variance. Ted Guy, as the current architect for the Kaufman residence, was present to request the variance. He stated that he had found the original plans to be lacking an airlock at the main entry, the area in question is already under roof, it is not visible from the street, an energy savings benefit would be gained, and there would be no impact on the neighbors. He showed a photograph indicating where the airlock would be placed. Public comment was solicited, none was offered. Luker questioned the basis on which a variance could be granted. Gideon Kaufman, attorney for the applicant, suggested that a hardship had been discovered in terms of the design of the house that created an energy drain on the house. Geller recalled a variance in Mtn. Valley that had been granted for the same reason. Jeff Dickinson, Energy Consultant, indicated that it is common practice to have an airlock to conserve energy. Dyer stated that he saw no reason not to grant the variance, but needed a reason to grant it. Luker supported the fact that minimal space would be added to achieve the energy savings. Cooper moved to approve the FAR variance of 40 sq. ft. where a maximum of 7227 sq. ft. is allowed fora 1.3641ot in the R-30 zone district, for the construction of an airlock on an existing single-family residence as per plans submitted. Dyer seconded. Motion passed 5-0. Case #96-06 Steve and Lynne Cordova. Lot 7 Crustal River Pazk. Lukes introduced the request for approval fora 4' north side yard setback variance, where 1~' is required, for the construction of asingle-family residence. Schaffner stated that Crystal River Park is a BOCC approved subdivision, requiring no 1041 or planning reviews. The property is bisected by a ditch with very large trees that the applicant is trying to avoid harming. An adjacent property owner, Mark Mueller, told her that he felt that if the house were tilted a little bit more to the south the variance would not be necessary, which he would prefer, but he had no strong objections to the request. Steve Cordova presented an adjusted survey and conveyed his main concern about any problem with the distance between the house and the drainage. He conceded that the adjustment corrected the encroachment on the lot line and that he would like to withdraw his application. Lukes suggested that the application be tabled, in case a need for the variance were to be found as the project progressed. Lukes requested public input, none was forthcoming. Lukes moved to table the application until the May 1996 meeting. Cooper seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Case #96-07 Yvo Eneerine Lot 8 Holland Hills Subdivision. Luker introduced the request for approval fora 92' arterial highway setback variance, where 200' is required as measured from the Highway 82 right-of-way, for the construction of asingle-family residence Schaffner indicated that this was a typical arterial highway setback, recalling the Boazd's approval of a very lazge berm at the foot of the property, stating that the applicant complies with all yard setbacks, but that the 200' setback requirement would not allow the applicant to build. Engering said that the berm did not yet exist, that he wanted to do all the work (berm and house) at the same time. No members of the public were present. Lukes expressed concern about the visibility of the proposed structure due to it being two stories with a pitched roof. The Boazd reviewed the blueprints for elevations. Cooper asked Engering if he would be willing to irrigate the berm. Engering responded yes. Dyer moved to grant approval of a 92' arterial highway setback variance, where 200' is required as measured from Highway 82 right-of- way, for the construction of a single- family residence in accordance with the plans shown due to downzoning with the proviso that the owner will provide irrigation and landscaping of the berm as shown on the plans. Brickham seconded. Schaffner questioned the timeframe for the irrigation. Dyer amended the original motion adding "prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy". Brickham re-seconded. Motion passed 5-0. Rudnick moved to approve the minutes of the March meeting, Cooper seconded, unanimously approved. A discussion ensued regarding making appropriate motions, with the conclusion being drawn that it is best to make motions for approval of vaziances, denying them if need be. If a motion fails it would be permissible for a Board member to frame a new motion regarding the same case. If no new motion is offered the case would be closed. Meeting adjourned at 6:15 PM.
