APPLICABLE LAND USE CODE: Estes Valley Development Code
DISCUSSION: This is a request to rezone the Aspen Brook PUD development
from “RM” Multi-family residential to “A” Accommodations.
The applicant, Phil Moenning, asserts the property was incorrectly zoned “RM”
with the comprehensive valley-wide rezoning in 2000, and that the property should
have retained the “A” designation.
Mr. Moenning further asserts the zoning designation should revert to “A”, and has
submitted this request to the Estes Valley Planning Commission and Larimer
County Board of County Commissioners to alleviate this perceived mistake.
Section 3.3.B3 provides that “within one (1) year from the effective date of this
Code, any property owner may apply for rezoning on the basis that an error in the
original zoning was made.”
Under the “RM” zoning designation, short-term rentals are allowed as Vacation
Homes, which place a limitation of 8 guests. The “A” zoning designation does not
include this limit. The “A” district also allows accessory uses such as restaurants
and wedding facilities.
Zoning History. Philip and Tara Moenning were granted a rezoning of the property
from “E” Estate to “A” Accommodations by the Larimer County Board of County
Commissioners in April 1988.
Phase I of the PUD was approved by the Board of County Commissioners in
March 1989.
Phase II of the PUD was approved by the Board of County Commissioners in April
1993. The zoning resolution specifies “the uses of these lots shall be limited to
single-family dwellings and accessory uses.” This condition was implemented
through the placement of a note on the plat.
Legislative Rezoning. In the year 2000, the Estes Valley was rezoned to
implement the Future Lane Use Plan contained in the 1996 Estes Valley Plan.
The Future Land Use Plan was intended to zone for the actual use of the property
where possible, and for planned future land use.
The “Existing Land Use” map contained in the Estes Valley Plan indicates the use
of the Aspen Brook property was multi-family residential.
Neighborhood Correspondence. Staff has had phone conversations with two
notified property owners.
One property owner lives across the Big Thompson River from Aspen Brook. This
adjoining property owner phoned to protest the change. Concerns include
additional traffic and guests, and loss of privacy.
The other phone conversation was with a resident of Aspen Brook, who expressed
opposition to the proposed change in zoning. This resident noted that when he
purchased his Phase I unit in 2004, he “understood the units closer to the road
would be summer rental, but those in Phase II would not be.” This resident noted
that there were only four people present at the HOA meeting, and most votes were
cast by proxy.
Draft minutes from the Planning Commission hearing are attached. The meeting
may be viewed on-line at http://estesgovtv.pegcentral.com/.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board of County
Commissioners accept the Estes Valley Planning Commission findings and
recommendation to disapprove the requested change in zoning for the Aspen
Brook PUD Phases I and II from “RM” Multi-Family to “A” Accommodations.
PLANNING COMMISSION FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION: On Tuesday,
August 17, 2010 the Estes Valley Planning Commission found:
1. The Aspen Brook PUD Phases I and II was correctly assigned the “RM” zoning
designation with the year 2000 legislative rezoning that implemented the
Future Land Use Plan set forth in the 1996 Estes Valley Plan.
2. The proposed rezoning does not comply with review standards set forth in
Section 3.3.D of the development code.
Page #2 – Aspen Brook PUD Rezoning
3. The amendment is not necessary to address changes in conditions in the
areas affected;
4. The proposed rezoning is not compatible and consistent with the policies and
intent of the Comprehensive Plan and with existing growth and development
patterns in the Estes Valley;
5. The development does not comply with General Development Standards set
forth in Chapter Seven of the Estes Valley Development Code.
6. This is a recommendation to the Larimer County Board of County
Commissioners.
Based on these findings, the Planning Commission voted 6-1 to recommend
DISAPPROVAL of the requested change in zoning for the Aspen Brook PUD
Phases I and II from “RM” Multi-Family to “A” Accommodations.
SUGGESTED MOTION: I move disapproval of requested change in zoning for the
Aspen Brook PUD Phases I and II from “RM” Multi-Family to “A” Accommodations.
