AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
WORK SESSION DATE: August 28, 2018
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: Commercial Recreation
STAFF RESPONSIBLE: Cindy Houben, Community Development; Gary Tennenbaum,
Open Space and Trails; Alex Burchetta, Sheriff's Office; Brian Pettet, Public Works
ISSUE STATEMENT: Commercial recreation activities within Pitkin County have become
increasingly popular and have grown in volume and frequency as outfitters and organizers take
advantage of the County's landscape and resources. Per the Land Use Code, these activities are
subject to permitting and enforcement processes, however, the LUC does not outline
organizational procedures, or enforcement authority, for departments to address these uses.
Consequently, some commercial activity operates without the required permits and are
unenforceable outside Open Space and Trail jurisdiction. This memo serves to brief the BOCC on
interagency concerns with the current state of commercial recreation affecting Pitkin County, and
seeks direction on how to better coordinate and enforce these activities to mitigate potentially
adverse impacts on the community.
BACKGROUND: The County's commercial recreation permitting process is primarily overseen
by Open Space and Trails on OST's properties. Currently, Community Development does not
permit ongoing commercial recreation activities. While OST manages the permitting process for
commercial outfitters, guides and ongoing commercial uses, ComDev only permits one-time
special use activities that operate under land use policies and regulations both within, and outside
of, OST jurisdiction. Some commercial activities are coordinated and permitted by both ComDev
and OST, however, enforcement authority is designated only to OST on land managed under their
jurisdiction. With increased commercial and special use permit applications, the current process
for managing, coordinating and communicating between several agencies has become inefficient
for applicants and County operations. Further,the lack of direction to manage these uses has made
it increasingly difficult to manage recurring unsanctioned and noncompliant activity(Attachment
A).
KEY DISCUSSION ITEMS: As the volume of commercial recreation and special use activity
increases throughout Pitkin County, the current permitting process has become obsolete and there
lacks a coordinated permitting and enforcement process for departments (Community
Development, Sheriff's Office, Open Space and Trails, Road&Bridge) to coordinate, permit and
enforce uses. The issues are seen as follows:
• Multiagency concern of permitted and unpermitted activities adversely affecting County
resources and departmental operations due to unregulated growth.
• Companies and event organizers not acquiring necessary authorization because of
confusion or lack of clear direction from the County.
2
• Land Use Code requires commercial recreation and special uses to be permitted, but does
not outline permitting procedures or enforcement authority for these activities.
• Inefficient permitting process sometimes requiring multiple departments' approval prior to
issuance, resulting in poor communication and information distribution between
departments that may be impacted by proposed uses.
• Diminished public safety services due to lack of ample time for questions/comments and
to adequately staff proposed activities.
• Impact on public roads and traffic congestion.
• Parking infrastructure used as rendezvous points for commercial uses.
RECOMMENDED BOCC ACTION:
1. Status Quo
2. Enforce current code requirements, Sec. 4-30-40(q) (Attachment B)
a. Administrative Reviews Sec. 2-30-20 (Attachment C)
i. Special Review for Commercial Recreational Use on Pitkin County Open
Space and Trails property or on County-owned property or roads if below
thresholds established in Sec. 4-30-40(q)(3)(a).
ii. One-Step Reviews Sec. 2-30-30
1. Special Review for Commercial Recreational use on Pitkin County
Open Space and Trails property or on County-owned property or
roads.
3. Develop a comprehensive approach for permitting, including possible LUC amendments,
and bring back to the BOCC for discussion.
The following areas have been identified for improvement:
• A single-stream process/position that oversees all commercial recreation and
special use activity, responsible for issuing and tracking permit details and
compliance. A new permitting process could automate applicant tracking/follow-
up and eliminate the need for several individuals to coordinate between
departments.
• Interagency communication channels that provides County stakeholders with
important permit details and use conditions. This would allow for a review and
comment process on proposed uses that could impact departmental operations and
provide public safety services with adequate time and information to provide
comments and ask questions.
• Amend the Land Use Code to include a provision granting the County enforcement
authority to penalize noncompliant or delinquent uses.
4. Alternative 3, above, would require additional capacity in the form of a newly designated
position which has been requested in the 2019 budget.

Bicycle Tour of Colorado July 26, 2018
Alisha Powell
P.O. Box 1225
Morrison, CO 80465
Dear Ms. Powell,
I write to you on behalf of Pitkin County, the Sheriff's Office, Open Space and Trails and Community
Development Departments, as well as the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority,to censure you, the
"Organizer",for your egregious management of the Bicycle Tour of Colorado, "Event", in Pitkin County,
June 24-25, 2018.
This letter of censure serves to outline the Event's history of deliberate noncompliance with authorizing
agencies,the repeated abuse of Pitkin County resources, and the Organizer's blatant disregard for
obtaining necessary permissions to lawfully operate the Event in 2018.
On June 8, 2018, a Special Events Committee meeting was convened with Pitkin County Community
Development, Open Space and Trails (OST), Aspen Volunteer Fire Department, Aspen Ambulance
District, Pitkin County Sheriff's Department, and the City of Aspen Police Department,to gather more
information from the Organizer and assist with completing the proposed Permit Application.After this
review process, it was determined that a revised Medical Plan would need to be approved by Gabe
Muething, Director of Aspen Ambulance District, and a $4,000 bond check would be required by
Community Development to issue the Pitkin County Special Event Permit, pursuant to Pitkin County
Land Use Code Section 4-30-50 (j) (3) (n).
On 06/12/2018, OST denied the Event's permit application to use the Rio Grande Trail based on a history
of noncompliance and public safety and resource impact concerns. In the Event's three operational
years (2013, 2015 and 2018), a total of seven (7) citations and two (2) warnings have been issued for
violations of OST regulations: unpermitted use and unauthorized commercial use of the Rio Grande
Trail,vandalism/resource damage, insufficient marshaling and insufficient posting of the event.
On Friday June 22, 2018,the Community Development Director denied the Event's permit due to failure
to submit the cash guarantee for the conditions of the proposed permit. In this denial letter, it was
stated that the use of Pitkin County roads,trails or property for the proposed event would be
prohibited. Colorado State Patrol was notified and instructed to provide route safety along Highway 82
from the Aspen City Limits to the north Pitkin County line.
4
On June 24, 2018, it was observed by Pryce Hadley, Ranger Supervisor for OST, that the Event was
operating without a permit on County roads and open space. Hadley documented the event route on
McLain Flats, Upper River and Lower River roads, and operating at various locations under OST
jurisdiction. At 11:15am, Hadley spoke with the Organizer by phone and requested her presence at an
unauthorized aid station, positioned at Pitkin Iron,to issue a citation in person.The Organizer told
Hadley she was in Carbondale and was unable to leave as she was setting up a facility for her event
participants and would be unavailable for the next week or so as she followed the event. Due to time
constraints, Hadley was unable to leave the County to meet with Powell in Carbondale.
Per Hadley's report on June 25, a total of two (2) citations were issued to the Organizer: "violation of
12.40.030 (J) Commercial Activities Limited of Pitkin County Code.Additionally, spray-paint or spray-
chalk was documented on Emma Trail near the Emma trail underpass. These markings are considered
vandalism and constitute a violation of the 12.40.030(S) Resource Protection code (third offense)."
Alex Burchetta, Operations Commander for the Pitkin County Sheriff's Office, also documented an
unauthorized aid station at Pitkin Iron, spray paint on Upper and Lower River Roads, and Event
participants riding 2-3 abreast on County roads. Burchetta stated via email on June 25, "I feel that the
event organizer was delinquent in the application process, in providing required elements set forth in
that process and simply did not have the best interest of the community in which they impact as a
priority of their event. I would strongly recommend a denial of this permit for years to come and will be
sure to represent that sentiment to the organizer if needed."
Additionally, Brett Meredith, Trails and Corridor Manager for Roaring Fork Transportation Authority, is
responsible for the Rio Grande Trail in Garfield County, adjacent to Pitkin's north County line, and
authorizes special use. In a message from June 28, Meredith was "perplexed about the recent Bicycle
Tour of Colorado,they seemingly ignored the system and used the [Lower Valley] Rio Grande Trail
despite not having an approved permit."
It is the intention of Pitkin County to assist event organizers in planning safe and fun events that do not
negatively impact the community and public resources.The County has permitted and hosted a variety
of cycling events, including the US Pro Challenge, backcountry mountain bike races and many other
professional and amateur cycling tours. Under the Organizer's direction, never have these events been
as disruptive, disrespectful and inconsiderate of the Roaring Fork Valley community or its public services
as the Bicycle Tour of Colorado historically has been.
It is the request of Pitkin County, its authorizing and enforcement agencies,that any future
Bicycle Tour of Colorado routes bypass the Roaring Fork Valley entirely. Any future permit applications
submitted on behalf of the Bicycle Tour of Colorado, or by the Organizer,will be denied.Violation of this
warning will be enforced and penalized to the fullest extent under Land Use Code 4-30-50 (j) (6) (a).
This letter will be provided to the Board of County Commissioners and will be included the public record.
Please direct any questions to me at(970)920-5097 or cindy.houben@pitkincounty.com.
Sincerely,
Cindy Houben
Community Development Director
