Bennett Special Review
REQUEST: The Applicant requests approval to 9mend the prior condition of approval, which limited the
floor area on the parcel, in order to accommodate an addition to the residence.
The application was originally scheduled to be considered by the BOCC on October 13, 2004, but was
continued at the request of the Applicant to December 1, 2004, January 12, 2005, July 13, 2005 and July 27,
2005.
APPLICANT: L. Russell Bennett
REPRESENTATIVES: Rick Magill & Bart Johnson
LOCATION: 2000 Stone Road; Parcel 13, West Sopris Ranch
ZONING/LOT SIZE: The parcel is zoned RS-30/PUD and contains 35.437 acres.
BACKGROUND: The BOCC granted 1041 hazard review and general submission approval for a building
envelope pursuant to Resolution No. 93-21. The 1041 site plan was recorded in Plat Book 31 at Page 74.
Condition #6 of Resolution No. 93-21 states,
The home shall be limited to a maximum height of 26 feet. The home shall also be limited in floor
area to 2400 square feet with the exception that the floor area of the structure may be increased by
up to 30percent without further review. Any indrease in floor area that exceeds 30percent of the
permitted 2 400 square feet will require further review by the Board of County Commissioners. The
home shall be a log structure with a non-reflective roof. The garage shall utilize similar exterior
materials and shall be one story in height.
The owner at that time agreed to limit the size of the house, based on concerns raised by the BOCC with
regard to the potential "zone of influence" on wildlife (the property is within elk and mule deer winter
range) and agreed to come back to the BOCC for special review approval for additional floor area.
Joanna Schaffner provides a detailed history of the development on this parcel in her comments
(Attachment A). As she notes, additional development has been approved over time either because it did
not count as "floor area" or based on the interpretation by staff that the condition above only limited the
floor area of the main residence and not accessory buildings. Ms. Schaffner estimates (based on building
permits) that there are approximately 6,164 square feet on the property, not all of which count as floor area.
The Applicant estimates 6,140 square feet.
In 2003, the Applicant obtained a permit and constructed a 1,600 square foot agricultural building, which
was exempt fi`om floor area. A staff inspection in 2004 revealed that the structure was being used as a
garage and garden tool storage, and that no agricultural activity was evident. The Applicant has since
proposed to utilize a portion of the structure as a garage (827 square feet) and to utilize and deed restrict the
remaining 893 square feet for agricultural uses to support an alpaca breeding operation (refer to Attachment
B). The 893 square feet would be exempt from floor area pursuant to Ordinance No. 20-2004.
REFERRAL AGENCIES: Comments from Zoning are attached for reference.
STAFF COMMENTS
GMOSExemption: The parcel was created prior to June 12, 1978, and would, therefore, be exempt from
growth management up to 5,750 square feet of floor area, if the square footage limitation spec}fled in the
1993 approval was eliminated.
Special Review: Special review approval is required to increase the floor area for the residence beyond the
3,120 square foot limit (2,400 square feet + 30%) imposed by Resolution No. 93-21. As described in the
"background" section above, staff's interpretation of this condition has allowed additional development
beyond the 3,120 square feet, such that the Applicant now appears to have a total of 5,247 square feet of
floor area (per the Applicant). Therefore, amending the condition to allow up to 5,750 square feet would
actually allow only a 503 square foot increase.
A. The special review use shall consider the applicable County Master Plan.
Response: The Down Valley Comprehensive Plan is the applicable plan for this area, as the recently
formed Emma Caucus has not yet created a master plan. The property is within the "Rural/Residential" and
"Scenic Foreground" designations in the DVCP. Allowing up to 5,750 square feet of floor area on the
parcel is not inconsistent with the DVCP. The prior approval includes conditions limiting the height of
structures on the property to ensure that the development is not visible from Highway 82.
B. The special review use shah not conflict with any applicable sections of the Pitkin County Land Use
Code, including the County Land Use Policies in Article 2.
Response: The proposed use does not conflict with any applicable Code sections. The proposed additional
floor area would be accommodated within the previously approved building envelope and would be
attached to the ex/sting residence.
C. The special review use shall be consistent with the intent of the Zone District in which it is proposed
to be located.
Response: The intent of the RS-20/PUD zone district is in part "to permit low density, single family
residential development and customary accessory uses, while recognizing natural hazards, wildlife areas,
limited utility service, reads or schools, and other facilities may constitute a constraint precluding the
realization of zoned density." The additional floor area is not inconsistent with the intent of the zone
district.
D. The special review use shall be compatible with the character of the immediate vicinity of the parcel
proposed for development and surrounding land uses, or shall enhance the mixture of complimentary uses
and activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel proposed for development.
Response: When the original 1041 approval was granted in 1993, it appears that only one residence bad
been built/n West Sopris Ranch (fka Terliamis Tracts). Since that time, the County has granted
development approvals for 12 of the' 15 parcels (13 are privately owned; 1 is owned by the County and 1 is
owned by the USFS) and residences have been built on 8 of the parcels. The other parcels in West Sopris
Ranch are exempt fi-om growth management up to 5,750 square feet, and do not have further floor area
limitations, with the exception of Parcel 14, which is directly adjacent to the Applicant's parcel on the ridge
at the top of Stone Road. The BOCC granted an extension of vested rights to Pamel 14 hi 2000, and limited
the floor area to a maximum of 5,750 square feet of floor area. Therefore, the additional floor area up to
5,750 square feet is compatible with the adjacent residential development. Staff recommends that the floor
area be limited to a max/mum of 5,750 square feet, as is Parcel 14, given the location on the top of the
ridge.
E. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed special review use must be in
harmony with the surrounding area and minimizes adverse effects, including visual impacts, impacts on
pedestrian and vehicular circulation, traffic generation, parla'ng, Wash, service delivery, air/water pollution
or other impacts on natural resources, noise, vibrations and odor on surroundingproperties.
Response: The Applicant states that the visual impacts "will be negligible given the house location in
relation to adjacent properties and the distance fi-om Highway 82." The additional floor area will be
attached to the existing residence and within the approved building envelope, and will also be subject to the
prior restriction on building height. The additional floor area will not otherwise create any additional
impacts on surrounding properties.
During the original review in 1993, the BOCC was discussing the concept of a "zone of influence" related
to wildlife impacts and felt that limiting the size of the house would limit the impact on wildlife. The
County has since obtained additional information on the effect of residential development on wildlife
(report by Eric Odell and Richard Knight, CSU, titled "Wildlife Communities and Exurban Development in
Pitkin County, Colorado"). The report did not fred a correlation between house size and wildlife response,
therefore, staff fmds that the additional floor area will not create additional impacts on wildlife.
Ms. Schaffner notes that the 26 foot height restriction in Resolution No. 93-21 is not clear as to the intent-
whether height would be calculated to the midpoint of the roof or the roof ridge. Staff has reviewed the
record and found that the Applicant represented that 26 feet would be the maximum height to the top of
ridge, therefore, this is clarified in the conditions. Ms. Schaffner also notes that the height of the garage was
limited to "one story," which does not provide a clear height limitation. The existing barn/garage is 16' to
the top of roof ridge; staffrecommends that accessory structures be limited to that height.
F. There must be adequate public facilities and services to serve the special review use including but not
limited to roads, potable water, sewer, solid waste, parks, police, fire protection, emergency medical
services, hospital and medical services, drainage systems, and schools.
Response: Al1 necessary services, including water and septic, are already in place. Stone Road was
improved by the Stone Road Association to address safety concerns.
An application for a special review use must demonstrate to the Board of County Commissioners that
the proposed development will not:
1. Materially endanger the public health, safety or welfare; and
2. Substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property.
Response: Staffhas no information that would indicate that the additional floor area will endanger the
public health, safety or welfare, or injure the value of adjacent properties.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Bennett Special Review, subject to the
attached Resolution.

RE: Bennett Special Review to Amend a Development Permit
Parcel ID# 2465-153-00-006
I have reviewed the above referenced application and offer the following comments.
FLOOR AREA
History:
In 1993, the BOCC approved resolution 93-21 granting 1041 Hazard Review and General
Submission approval for the Harris-Bent parcel. The home was also limited to 2400
square feet of floor area with the exception that the floor area of the structure may be
increased up to 30 percent (720 sf) without further review. Any increase in the floor area
that exceeds 30 percent of the permitted 2400 square feet requires further review by the
BOCC.
In June of 1993, a building permit was issued to Harris-Bent, for a 2,759.5 sf residence
which utilized the 30 % exception mentioned above. A 546 sfgarage was approved
under the garage exemption available at the time, and an additional 408 sfart studio was
approved exempt from floor area because it is a detached strucpare (only the main
residence was limited to the 2400 sr.) Gross square footage at this point equals 3,713.5
sf.
In 1997, Harris-Bent constructed a family room addition of 704 sf without proper permits
or approvals from Pitkin County. He subsequently applied for a permit which was
issued.
In 2002, work began, again without approvals or permits, to fill in an atrium area that was
previously exempt from floor area calculations. Although there was no change to
building footprint, an additional 176 sf of floor area was added.
Finally, in 2003, after much discussion with various staff members, Mr. Bennett applied
for an agricultural building of approximately 1600 sf, exempt from floor area
calculations. Mr. Bennett was informed numerous times that the structure had to be used
for agricultural purposes for it to be exempt from floor area. He was given the definition
of Barn. An impromptu inspection made in the summer of 2004 revealed that the
structure was being used as vehicle and garden tool storage. No agricultural activity was
evident.
While Zoning records indicate that the gross floor area on the parcel appears to be
approximately 4,579 sf, the Building Depa~hnent measured only 3,005. sf of area. If
these numbers are correct, it appears that the residence exceeds the allowed 3,120 sfby
519.5 sr. (status of the "agricultural" structure aside).
Allowed Floor Area
Permitted Floor Area
Exempted Residential
Exempted Agricultural
Gross Square Footage
2400 + 720 = 3,120~sf
2730 + 704 + 176 = 3,610 s£
546+408 = 954s'f
1600 = 1,600 sf
6,164 sf
This sttmmer, the agricultural exemption for unlimited floor area was restricted to 58 sq ft
of agricultural square footage per acre. Based on this, the agricultural exemption allowed
for this 35.4 acre site is 2,053 sq fL
It is not clear how the residence has come to exceed the allowed floor area. Considering
the history of construction without permits, it is suggested that as-built plans be drawn
and that the existing floor area be accurately determined.
HEIGHT:
BOCC 93-21 limited the maximum building height of the residence to 26 feet. Since
building height is measured to the roof's midpoint, the 26 foot height restriction implies
an additional 5 feet is allowed for pitched roofs, plus an additional allowance for roof
"accessories". If26 feet is intended as a maximum height limit for all improvements,
then the language should be strengthened.
BOCC 93-21 also restricts the height of the garage to "one story". "One story" is
somewhat vague and does not address an actual height limitation. If the height limit for
accessory structures is to be more restrictive than the current 20 foot limitation, the
language should be clarified.
PROPOSAL BY RUSSELL BENNETT FOR RESOLVING RESIDENTIAL FLOOR
AREA ISSUE WITH PITKIN COUNTY
This proposal is made by Russell Bennett ("Bennett") to Pitkin County (the "County")
for the purpose of detailing Bennett's plans for addressing a floor area issue that arisen on his
property.
A. Background.
Bennett is the owner of Parcel 13, West Sopris Ranch within Pitkin County (the
"Property"). Pursuant to the Pitkin County Land Use Code (the "Code"), the Property is
permitted a total floor area of 5,750 square feet.
There currently exists within the primary building envelope on the Property a residential
structure containing a total of 4,420 square feet. Bennett has submitted an application to the
County seeking approval for a modest addition to this home. The County has informed Bennett
that the addition cannot be permitted because the total existing floor area on the Property already
exceeds 5,750 square feet.
In addition to the primary residential restructure, there exists on the property a recently
constructed accessory building with a total floor area of 1,720 square feet. Though this structure
was permitted and constructed as a bam, the County's zoning officer has determined that the
structure should be characterized as a garage. If the structure were a barn, its floor area would
not be counted toward the Property's allowable floor area under the Code. As a garage,
however, the structure's floor area is counted toward the allowable floor area. This means that
from the County's perspective the total floor area currently existing on the Property is 6,140
square feet.
B. Summary of Proposal.
Bennett is proposing that a portion of the accessory structure be converted and deed
restricted to agricultural uses. The converted portion would have a floor area of 893 square feet.
Subtracting this 893 square feet from the total existing square footage on the Property would
reduce the total square footage from 6,140 to 5,247 square feet. At 5,247 square feet, the
Property would be allowed an additional 503 square feet (~/0~- 5,247) that could be used for
Bennett's proposed addition to his home. 5'~/~o
C. Details of Proposed Plan.
Bennett's proposal includes the following three elements:
1. Corral/Pasture for Alpacas. Bennett would construct a fenced
corral/pasture to the east of the existing accessory structure. The fenced pasture would measure
approximately 50 feet by 75 feet. Within this pasture/corral he will maintain one female and one
male alpaca. Alpaca's are domesticated animals of Peruvian origin that are similar to llamas,
only smaller. They are hardy animals that are bred to live in cold and high altitude climates.
Bennett hopes to successfully breed his two alpacas.
2. Use of a Portion of the Structure for Agricultural Purposes. To support the
alpaca operation, Bennett would convert two areas of his accessory structure to agricultural uses.
First, the back room of the structure would be used for storing straw; hay; feed grains;
grooming tools; an assortment of hand tools such as shovels, hoes, pry bars, rakes and pitch
forks; pesticides for weed and insect control; fence mending materials; and veterinary supplies
for the alpacas. This is preliminary list of the anticipated materials. As the alpaca operation gets
underway, there will undoubtedly be additional items. The back room contains 480 square feet,
having dimensions of 12 feet by 40.
Second, one of the three front bays of the structure would be used to store additional
Straw, hay and feed grains as well as a John Deer Mule. A Mule is a small vehicle similar to a
4-wheeler (though sometimes they have 6 wheels) with a hauling bed on the rear. They are
designed for light, agricultural applications such as hauling feed, straw and supplies. The bay
would also be used for storage of a small tractor if a tractor became necessary for the alpaca
operation. Each front bay of the structure contains approximately 413 square feet (when
including 3 feet of the 8-foot overhang on the front of the structure).
The use of these two areas of the structure for agricultural purposes will result in 893
square feet (480 + 413) of the structure being used for agricultural purposes. By reducing this
amount from his total existing floor area of 6,140, Bennett would be left with 503 square feet of
additional floor area available under the applicable cap of 5,750.
3. Restrictive Covenant. If the County agrees with Bennett's approach, then
as a condition of approval for his addition to his residence, Bennett would agree to record a
restive covenant in a form approved by the County Attorney restricting the use of portions of his
accessory structure to agricultural purposes as described above. This restrictive covenant would
expressly prohibit use of the designated areas for automobile parking. The restrictive covenant
would run in favor of the County and would be enforceable by the County. The covenant would
be recorded and would bind future owners of the Property.

RE: Bennett Special Review to Amend a Development Permit
Deo. r Suz~ulne,
L. Russell Bennett, hereinafter "the Applicant", is requesting Pitkin County approval of a
relatively minor increase in floor area for Lot 13 of West Sopris Ranch. Lot 13 is over 35 acres in
size, and currently contains a residence and attached studio of approximately 4,750 square feet.
The Applicant is requesting that the allowable floor area be increased to 5,750 square feet to
accommodate the expansion of two bedrooms and the construction of a covered entry. Attached is
a brief development history of the parcel, prepared by the Applicant, which describes several
County-approved increases in floor area since the original owner constructed the residence/studio
in 1994.
In response to Section 3-210-020: Special Review, the Applicant believes that the proposed
increase in floor area does not in any way conflict with the applicable County Master Plan or the
Pitkin County Land Use Code. The proposed residential use is consistent with the AFR-10 zone
district and is certainly compatible and consistent with character, surrounding land uses and
activities in the immediate vicinity of the parcel. The visual impacts of the proposed additions
will be negligible given the house location in relation to adjacent properties and the distance from
Highway 82. All necessary public facilities and services are in place for this pamel, and West
Sopris Ranch development as a whole, and have been proven sufficient over time. Lastly, the
proposed additions will not materially endanger the public health, safety or welfare nor will it
injure the value of adjoining or abutting property.
Please let me know if any farther information can be provided to facilitate your review.
