(Re:
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
PITKIN COUNTY
RESOLUTION NUMBER 74-16
Zoning Resolution and Map Amendments)
WHEREAS, the Pitkin County Commissioners initiated
proposed amendments to the Pitkin County Zoning Maps and the
Pitkin County Zoning Resolution on November 5, 1973 and
referred such proposed amendments to the Pitkin County
Planning Commission for their review and comment, and
WHEREAS, the Pitkin County Commission reviewed
the proposed amendments on November 5, 1973 and certified
their comments and recommendations with respect thereto to
the Board of County Commissioners, and
WHEREAS, after public notice given pursuant to
law, the Pitkin County Commissioners held a public hearing
to consider comments on such proposed amendments on January
29, 1974 at 9:00 a.m. in the District Courtroom of the
County Courthouse, and
WHEREAS, after consideration of the recommendations,
testimony, comments and exhibits resulting from such public
hearing, the Board of County Commissioners determined that
certain changes should be made to the proposed amendments
to the zoning maps and the zoning resolution, and re-submitted
such revised proposed amendments to the Planning Commission
for comment on the 20th day of March, 1974, which recommended
adoption of the amendments, and
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners has
reviewed all of the evidence, testimony and exhibits submitted
at the public hearing, as well as the comments and recormmend-
ations of'the Pitkin County Planning Commission, together
with the various studies and land-use p~ans, and it has
reached the follov~ing conclusions or findings:
1. The Pitkin County Zoning Resolution and Maps
were originally adopted in 1955. The Master Plan for a
portion of Pitkin County, adopted pursuant to C.R.S. 1963,
Section 106-2-5, et seq., entitled The Aspen Area General
Plan Final Report 1966, was adopted on June 6, 1966. Not-
withstanding the recommendations contained therein, the
Master Plan has never been implemented through the zoning
resolution and the county has never been rezoned in accordance
with those recommendations. That subsequent to the adoption
of the Master Plan, certain events have occurred, such as
the lack of construction of the Little Annie Ski Basin, which
make some of the recommendations of the original Master
Plan inappropriate at the present time. That as a result
of certain of these changes in conditions, the Master Plan
has been amended with respect to the recommendations for the
areas of the Roaring Fork Valley to the immediate east of
the town of Aspen and to the northwest of the town of Aspen
extending to the Pitkin County Airport and such amendments
to the Plan were adopted by the Pitkin County Planning Com-
mission and certified on February 20, 1974. That the com-
prehensive planning process for Pitkin County has been con-
tinued since the date of the adoption of the Master Plan
and is illustrated by the adoption by the Pitkin County
Planning Commission of, among other things, the Criteria
for Sardy Field, as adopted July, 1971; the Trail System
Plan, as adopted March 14, 1973, and amended February 20,
1974; the Roaring Fork Greenway Plan, Aspen, Colorado, as
adopted September 26, 1973~ the Capital-Snowmass Creek Land
Use Concepts, as adopted December 5, 1973; Planning Com-
mission Resolution Amending the Aspen Area General Plan in
the Buttermilk and Roaring Fork East Areas, as adopted
February 20, 1974; and the Urban Runoff Management Plan,
as adopted by the City of Aspen Planning and Zoning Com-
mission on November 21, 1973.
That in addition to the plans and studies which
have been officially adopted as set forth above, the county
has contracted for or obtained significant additional plan-
ning and impact studies relating to Pitkin County, a list
of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference as Addendum B. That the proposed amendments to
the map and zoning resolution are necessary to begin imple-
mentation of the recommendations contained in the above-
listed Master Plan, amendments thereto, and other planning
studies and reports.
2. That subsequent to the original zoning resolu-
tion and maps enacted in 1955, and even subsequent to the adop-
tion of the Aspen Area General Plan (Master Plan) in 1966,
there has occurred a substantial change in conditions and
circumstances in the area. Some of these changes in condi-
tions and circumstances are as follows. The population of
Pitkin County has more than doubled every ten years since
1950. It is the fastest growing county in the State of
Colorado and during the last five years has grown at an
estimated rate of 15 percent per year, which rate will cause
the population to double every five years. That the number
of skier days, according to the statistics of the Aspen
Skiing Corporation, have increased from 62,000 during the
1954-55 season to 1,173,528 during the 1972-73 season, and
during the last five years has increased at an annual rate
of 22 percent per year, which rate will cause the skier
day figure to double every three and one-half years. That
during the last five years the number of multiple-family
housing units (primarily condominiums) has increased at an
annual rate of 19 percent per year. That the total local
government spending has increased at the rate of 17 percent
per year, and that figure discounts the increases caused by
devaluation of the dollar or inflation (i.e., 1967 fixed
dollars), and law enforcement costs have increased during
the last five years at an annual rate of 20 percent per
I~OOK
year based on 1967 fixed dollars. That at a 20 percent
annual growth rate a quantity doubles in less than four
years. That the extremely rapid growth rates experienced
by this county have created a serious lag in the ability
of the public to provide the necessary services and facilities
to meet the needs of the community and that the community
has reached a critical size, such that if the above growth
rates continue the viability of local government to meet
the community needs will be seriously threatened.
That there has developed a serious imbalance in
tourist housing as compared to ski hill capacity in various
ski areas in Pitkin County. That, for example, the town of
Aspen contains approximately 9,000 tourist beds, while the
Aspen Mountain ski hill capacity is approximately 3,300. That
such imbalance in tourist beds located away from the ski hills
where excess capacity exists compared to base facilities,
necessitates substantial and expensive public transportation
facilities to move the skiers twice daily. This imbalance
would indicate that further expansion of tourist housing
in the immediate Aspen area should be closely regulated.
That the growth rates recited above have caused a
substantial impact of numbers of people upon the required
public services and facilities such as roads and maintenance,
water and sewage treatment, police and fire protection, air-
port, hospital, sanitary landfill, parks, and public trans-
portation. Certain serious deficiencies in such facilities
and services currently exist and would be obsolete shortly
after upgrading in the event such growth rates were to con-
tinue.
That the attitude of the general public towards
growth expansion and services in Pitkin County and the
Aspen area have changed substantially in recent years, per-
haps in realization of the danger inherent in such continued
growth rates, such public opinion being reflected in the
election of public officials, both city and county, whose
campaigns were based upon pledges of controlled and orderly
growth, and by the vote or approval by public officials of
the ultimate expenditure of some $7,000,000 for the pur-
chase of land to maintain open space, create parks, and
the like, and the commitment of over $2,000,000 in public
funds by the City of Aspen to attempt to implement a trans-
portation plan and reduce traffic congestion.
That the amendments to the zoning map and resolu-
tion herein are necessary to preserve the viability of
local government, and the ability of such local government
to effectively deal with the public facilities and services
deficiencies and other problems raised by the changing condi-
tions and circumstances recited.
3. That in order to protect
the economy in government expenditures
the tax base and secure
and the viability of
local government, it is necessary to provide for a logical,
continuous, and phased expansion of public services and faci-
lities. That a number of areas within the county currently
zoned for high density development are outside of the service
areas of municipal water and sewer treatment facilities. That
at the present time the Metro Sewer Plant, which just this
year completed a $431,000 expansion program, is already surg-
ing to 70 percent capacity and must be expanded again when
such surges reach 80 percent of capacity. That the county
currently has determined that it is necessary to build a
new hospital at a total cost of $4,000,000, and that
it is necessary to expand the airport and its facilities,
the first phase of which will cost an estimated $5,500,000.
That additional facilities and service deficiencies exist
and these deficiencies are increasing in the area of fire
and police protection and surface and storm water runoff.
That the recent Urban Runoff Management Plan indicated that
the most significant source of pollution of the Roaring Fork
River was such storm and surface drainage runoff. That,
* c 429
further, the local government needs to plan for a logical
expansion of other public services such as schools, sanitary
landfills, parks, and public transit facilities.
That the Planning Commission calculated the
theoretically permissible densities under existing zoning
in May of 1972 and determined that accommodations could be
built under such existing zoning for approximately 206,000
persons in the portion of Pitkin County encompassed within
the Aspen Area General Plan, omitting from such calculation
the unzoned and the agriculture and forestry zoned areas,
and omitting the City of Aspen. That the County of Pitkin
currently has on file applications for subdivision approval
or building permits to construct 3,227 units, primarily
condominium multi-family units. Assuming the planning
figure of 3.2 people per unit, these densities would
convert to housing for in excess of 10,000 people in a
county, which, according to the 1970 census, had a popula-
tion of 6,190. That in addition to this, the City of Aspen
currently has on file applications for 730 units, or approx-
imately 2,340 additional population in a town that, accord-
ing to the 1970 census, contained 2,400 persons. That the
above densities are all allowed by right under existing
zoning. That the amendments to
resolution herein are necessary
tax base and secure the economy
the zoning map and zoning
to protect the existing
and governmental expendi-
tures and to protect the viability of government.
4. That in order to lessen congestion on the
roads and prevent the waste inherent in an excessive amount
of roads, it is necessary to provide for the logical and
continuous expansion of a road system in accordance with
development and not to allow the overloading or congestion
of the county roads. That according to the Road Network
Analysis of Pitkin County, Colorado prepared by Briscoe-
Maphis, Inc., management consultants, and presented to the
county on October 23, 1973, certain undeveloped portions
of the county currently zoned for high density uses are
served by inadequate and already overloaded road systems,
which road systems would be entirely inappropriate and
unable to handle any additional traffic loads created by
any such further high density development. That the amend-
ments to the zoning map and to the zoning resolution con-
tained herein are necessary to lessen congestion on such
roads and prevent waste caused by excessive amounts of
roads.
5. That for the safety and welfare of the
present and future inhabitants of the county and visitors
thereto, it is necessary to regulate and control residen-
tial high density and commercial uses on steep slopes,
unstable soils, in flood plains, in potential avalanche,
rockfall and landslide areas, and in potential wildfire
areas. That at the present time certain areas of the
county are zoned to allow high density commercial and
residential uses in such hazard areas.
That further for the safety and welfare of the
inhabitants and visitors, it is necessary to avoid undue con-
centration of densities which would create air, noise, or
water pollution. That at the present time certain areas
of the county are zoned such as to allow such undue concen-
tration.
That further for the safety and welfare of the
inhabitants and visitors, it is necessary to regulate high
density residential and commercial uses in the vicinity of the
centerline extended of the Aspen-Pitkin County Airport runway to
lessen the dangers from crashes and of noise annoyance. That
certain areas near the centerline extended of the runway of the
Aspen-Pitkin County Airport are currently zoned for high
density accommodation uses and are within the excessive
noise envelope that is shown for the Master Plan for the
Aspen-Pitkin County Airport prepared by Isbitl and Associates.
-7-
That further for the safety and welfare of the
inhabitants and visitors, it is desirable to have high density
accommodations, residential and commercial uses connected to
municipal water and sewage treatment facilities. That currently
high density zoning uses are allowed in the county in
areas which are beyond the services areas of any such
municipal systems.
That for the safety and welfare of the present and
future inhabitants and visitors to the county the within
amendments to the zoning map and resolution are required.
6. That to preserve the prosperity and welfare of
the present and future inhabitants of the community and
visitors thereto it is necessary to maintain a viable econ-
omic base. That approximately 70 percent of the personal
incomes of the inhabitants of Pitkin County are derived from
the recreation and tourism industry. That an essential
element of the attractiveness of Pitkin County as a tourist
and resort area is its aesthetically-pleasing and unspoiled
natural environment, including its high quality air and water,
as well as the small town experience of Aspen. That it is
essential to such tourist industry to retain and maintain
such natural setting and small scale without congestion and
degradation of the quality of the air, water, natural
vegetation, and wildlife. That the development and densi-
ties allowed under existing zoning, even if only partially
built, would seriously erode if not destroy the necessary
resort experience to maintain the tourist economy of the
area. That such development would cause extreme congestion
and extreme degradation of the air, water, and natural
setting quality of the area. That the proposed amendments to
the zoning map and resolution are therefore essential to
maintain the prosperity and welfare of the present and future
inhabitants of the county.
7. That the amendments to the zoning resolution
and maps herein will allow flexibility in land use development
in sentitive areas through the establishment of mandatory
planned unit development districts in certain areas, which
will allow greater efficiency for the provision of roads
and other public utilities and facilities as well as better
preserving the natural setting for the benefit of the
enhancement of the tourist economy, as well for those who
here permanently reside.
8. That the amendments to the zoning resolution
and the maps as contained herein will correct certain errors
to the zoning map and resolution which were discovered as
a result of the preparation by the county in early 1973 of an
updated set of zoning maps showing all changes to such date.
9. That the amendments to the zoning resolution
and maps herein will still allow reasonable use of all lands
affected by such amendments.
10. The amendments to the zoning resolution and
maps are part of a continuing planning process and further
rezoning will be made as further study and analysis or
changes in conditions reveal and make apparent the subsequent
need for such additional rezonings in a manner and in an
area where development is logical, safe, and appropriate
and can be served by the necessary public services and
facilities.
11. That the Planning Commission has recommended
two additional changes on the maps, namely changing the Colo-
rado Ute and Airport Business Center area and part of the
West Village expansion area, and those changes are accepted
by the Board and are now indicated on the maps accompanying
this resolution (sheets 9 and 12).
NOW BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Pitkin County
Zoning Resolution be amended as provided herein in Addendum
A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and
that the official Pitkin County Zoning Maps, sheets numbered
cover sheet, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 be amended,
and new sheet numbered 28 with a zoning change as indicated
-9-
with this resolution and incorporated herein by reference; and
such maps and resolution shall be placed on file in the office
of the Pitkin County Building Inspector and shall be further
filed with the Pitkin County Clerk and Recorder.
