BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT VARIANCE APPLICATION
-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Dear Board of Zoning Adjustments
Thank you for considering our project for a zoning variance for the accesory structure setback requirements. Our
project is located at 1951 Alpine Avenue in Boulder, CO which is a single family residential property with an existing
residence. As part of the landscape renovation which includes new retaining walls, fences, steps, plantings and irriga-
tion, the owners have purchased a pre-manufactured sauna. This structure is 6.5’x 11’ x9’ tall and is constructed of high
quality construction materials. Due to the unusual nature of this site, which has a large front yard that faces both Alpine
Avenue to the south and Tyler Road to the north, the accesory structure setbacks limit the locations this element can be
placed. Aside from the challenges with the geometry, the site is faced with extreme grading conditions particularly on
the northeast side or rear yard which is one of the only locations within the accesory structure setbacks. The grading of
the rear yard is not only extreme but re-grading could compromise the stabalization of the adjacent lot which sits higher
in elevation than 1951 Alpine Avenue. We have submitted and been approved a retaining wall plan to provide a flat
space for a usable yard south of the existing residence which is the most suitable location for the sauna structure to be
placed.
Due to these existing conditions, the owners at 1951 Alpine are faced with a challenging lot which has very limited flat,
buildable areas located on the south side of the property. This is the reason for the location we are proposing the ac-
cesory building, on the southeast corner of the existing residence. We feel this is apropriate due to the hardship of the
site and have developed a landscape plan which incorporates the structure in a thoughtful manner that is respectful to
the neighborhood. This structure is crafted of quality construction materials and architecturally compliments the house. It
will also be set within a new fenced-in flat lawn area and hidden to the east through fencing and vegetation. Several
neighbors have seen the plans and structure and have expressed their support of the design in written letters which have
been submitted with this package. In order to ensure this design is an asset for the neighborhood, the landscape plan
which includes retaining walls, fences, steps and new plantings will enhance the entire corner increasing curb appeal
while complementing both the sauna structure and existing residence. In accordance with the BOZA variance criteria
we feel this proposal satisfies all of the criteria. Below we have listed these in detail:
(1) Physical Conditions or disability:
(A) (i) There is unusual physical circumstances or conditions including, without limitation, irregularity, narrowness, shallow-
ness of the lot, or exceptional physical conditions peculiar to the physical property.
Response: There are numerous physical conditions which are uniqure to this property which warrant the request for this front
yard setback variance. We have provided a series of diagrams which illustrate these conditions. These include, the setbacks
and easements, existing topography, existing retaining structures, existing neighboring deck and easement, inaccesability for
equipment along the east and northwest sides and negative impact a structure in this location will have on all neighboring lots.
Each of these conditions is described in detail to follow:
First, The unusual shape of the property and placement of the existing residence compresses the back yard to a small triangular
shape. There are side yard setbacks on two sides of 3’ and a 10’ utility easement which runs along the northwest property line
which futher compress the buildable area to a small space in which the proposed accesory building could not be placed with-
out violation of the structure offsets of 6’. These factors alone would be constraining enough to warrant a variance if this were a
flat site, which it is not.
Second, the grade itself on 1951 Alpine avenue slopes between 10-14 feet from the house to the property line which is
between 22 feet and 26 feet away from the residence. Re-grading this area, if it were possible, would result in slopes that are
steeper than is allowed in the City of Boulder. There are several existing timber retaining walls which sit directly in the location
any structure could be placed outside of the front yard setback. The existing retaining walls are critical to the stabalization of the
grade for 3 neighboring residences and span across property lines to the proerties east and northwest of 1951 Alpine.

BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT VARIANCE APPLICATION
-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Removing or reconstructing these retaining walls would cause a disturbance that would impact the slope stabilitzation of each
of these properties and compromise the integrity of the walls which run to the northest and east, crossing property lines and
stabalizing grades for 1965 Alpine, 1941 Tyler and 1975 Balsam Avenue.
Third, access to the northeast part of the site is exteremly challenging by foot and nearly impossible with any equipment. Along
the east property there is an existng easement which extends 5’ into the property and the neighboring owner has constructed a
deck which provides access to the 1965 Alpine residence. This easement, the narrow space between the east property line and
existing residence, the existing structure supporting the deck and grade along east side make access nearly impossible without
removing the structures which sit in the easement that the 1965 Alpine owner uses for access.
The west property line has significant grading challenges including a 9’ slope in 8’ which is held back by existing timber retain-
ing walls which extend across the property line into the property at 1941 Tyler avenue. Regrading to allow access along the
west properrty line is impossible without impacting the the slope on 1941 Tyler Avenue which sits 25 feet below 1965 Alpine.
Even if re-graded, access would still not be possible for any equiment with the resulting grades.
Fourth the neighbor to the east at 1965 Alpine Avenue has written support of the variance request as it places the accesory
building in a low impact location. If the accesory building were proposed in the northeast corner of 1951 Alpine, it would sit
directly in the sight lines to the west which would cause significant impact and, we have confirmed, would not be supported by
the neighbor. This location would be in the direct sight lines of both neighbors to the east.
(B)The unusual circumstances or conditions do not exist throughout the neighborhood or zoning district in which the
property is located, and (see response to item C)
Response:This site is unique to both the neighborhood and zoning district in that it is a corner lot with a geometric alignment of
the property lines which compresses what would appear to be the rear yard, has very shallow side yards and the front yard
requires front yard setbacks on both the south and west sides because the lot is bordered by Alpine Avenue to the south and
Tyler Road to the west. When offseting the front yard property line by 12.5’, side yards by 5’ to the southeast and 10’ to the
northwest and 3’ from the smaller rear property line there are no remaining areas in which an accesory structure of this size (the
size considered acceptable as a shed (6.5’x11’) can be placed and still conform with the offsets from the main residence. This is
unique to the neighborhood as few sites of this size have the unique character of bordering two streets and having such a small
size for the rear yard. The grading of this site is also unique to the neighborhood in that the rear yard has significant slopes but is
also retaining the grade for the adjacent properties which side higher in elevation. There are no other lots within the neighboor-
hood which feature both of these constraining factors.
C) Because of such physical circumstances or conditions the property cannot be reasonably be developed in conform-
ity with the provisions of this chaper and (see response D):
Response: There is no location on the 1951 Alpine Avenue site that can be developed with an accesory structure by-right,
without a variance. There is only a small area which can even be developed without a variance from the Front Yard Accesory
Structure Setback and the process with which to develope this area is not reasonable due to the existing physical and legal
constraints listed in the response to (1) (A)(i). Knowing that any location on the site will require a variance we are proposing a
location for the accesory building that has the least impact to the site, immediate neighbor and the neighborhood. The existing
residence, which was constructed well before it was purchased by the homeowners, is placed on the site in a location in which
the remaining rear yard is not large enough for this structure to be located within it while conforming to the accesory structure
offsets from main residence. The side yards are both narrow and inaccesible with any kind of equipment and the front yard
wraps two sides of the residence, limiting the constructable area in the rear yard due to the uniquely large front yard setback.
The topography, setbacks, easements and existing structure in the rear yard location do not allow for the construction of a
structure witout requiring the removal of retaining walls which will compromise the stabalization of the residences adjacent to
the site, add significant scarring of the land to construct footings and require the removal of existing retaining structures which
will create unstable sloping conditions on the neighboring lots, in particular 1941 Tyler Rd. The residence east of 1941 Tyler
Road sits 25’ below the site of 1965 Alpine and the slope between the two sites is being retained by walls at 1951 Alpine Ave
running west between the two sites.

BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT VARIANCE APPLICATION
-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Removing any part of these walls could pose hazard by risking the slope stabilization above the 1941 Tyler Rd. residence.
When we spoke to the project structural engineer about this area his opinion was “It can be difficult to modify portions of exist-
ing timber walls (guessing that’s what’s there based on the rest of the site), and I could see a scenario where a large percentage
of the existing wall would need to be removed. Additionally, constructing new walls there would likely result in the need to ex-
cavate a fairly large area for construction, extending back into the neighbor’s property. Not really knowing what the neighbor’s
structural systems are (in particular their foundation) I would be really hesitant to go anywhere near those.”
D) Any unneccesary hardship has not been created by the applicant.
Response:
The existing conditions of this site were the conditions in place when the current owners purchased the property. The property
lines , setbacaks and unusual easements cause the constraints with accesory structure placement and the topography is in the
condition of the site as it was purchased. The hardships were created from conditions that were established long before the
homeowners purchased this property and the only modifications they have made are currently being constructed to help retain
the slopes and improve the stabalization of the site. The homeowners are exercising their right to have an accesory building
on the property. They are proposing a structure which is within an allowable SF and does not exceed any building coverage,
size limitations or solar fence impacts on the neighboring lots. The by-right location is constrained by multiple mitigating factors
including the setbacks and easements which do not allow a structure to be constructed without a variance request. Beyond this,
any location not in the front yard setback has a far greater impact on the neighboring homes, greater environmental impact
and significantly impacts many other properties. The proposed location and variance request was done in an effort to limit
the hardships of the site. In addition, as a good faith effort, the owners are making a large investment in the beautification of
the landsacpe in the front of the house by replacing aged retaining walls and walkways with new masonry walls placed to
preserve the existing trees, vegetation, fencing and walkways and patios which will be a benefit to both the architecture and
the neighborhood. The proposed location of the structure will have the least amount of impact to the grading and drainage and,
combined with the new landscape which is unders construction, will actually improve the setting and condition of the existing
sites grading, drainage and richness of the public-facing facade of the project.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL VARIANCE APPROVALS:
(5) (A) Would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood or district in which the lot is located.
Response: The current neighborhood features an eclectic range of architectural styles and scale ranging from traditional design
materials such as masonry and wood to stucco and glass modern homes. Many of the more attractive landscape materials in
the neighborhood, which are an integral part of the streetscape experience, include wood fences, steel planters and perenni-
als and grasses. All of these materials will be installed at 1951 Alpine Avenue as a part of the landscape renovation currently
under construction. Traveling west along Alpine Avenue many of the sites have detached garages which face Alpine Avenue
adding a smaller scale structure to the neighborhood experience. The proposed accesory structure, will be largely concealed
behind a new fence and plantings but when viewed will harmonize with the home’s color and is constructed of high qualityma-
terials which will enhance the texture of the streetscape.
Placing the structure outside of the front yard setback would significantly alter the neighborhood’s character. The building
would be placed directly in the sightlines of the neighboring residences, would sit much higher in elevation and require distur-
bances that would impact existing structures and slopes on all of the neighboring properties.
(B) Would not substantially or permanently repair the reasonable use and enjoyment of the development of adjacent
property
Response: The homeowners at 1951 Alpine have spoken with the neighbors who are within the closests proximity of the loca-
tion of the sauna structure for which the variance is being requested (The neighbors to the east and northwest,1965 Alpine and
1941 Tyler Rd, and two neighbors to the south,1996 Alpine Avenue and 2001 Mesa Drive). These neighbors have reviewed
the proposed variance and design and will provide written documentation supporting the variance. The structure itself is only 9
feet tall and will be concealedbehind a 6’ fence. The neighboring property to the east is the only property directly adjacent to
the proposed structure and is currently concealed from it by a large existing Pine tree. The structure itself because of its location
will also have no impact on the solar of any of the adjacent neighbors. The neighbor to the east 1965 Alpine Avenue would be
significantly impacted by the site if it were placed in the rear yard.

-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
(C) Would be the minimum variance that would afford relief and would be the least modification of the applicable
provisions of this title.
Response: The design team considered all of the possible locations for the proposed accesory building and every possible
location would require a variance due to the unique constraints of the site. The location to the northeast of the house, the
“Rear Yard” will require multiple variances due to the minimal space from the house to the accesory structure setback which is
compressed by existing easments. In order to access this location, the homeowners would be required to request the removal
of the deck on the 1965 Alpine Avenue property which encroaches, via easment into 1951 Alpine. This process is even more
significant and impactful than a variance. The grading as well would require extensive retaining walls and without terracing
would require variances to retain the height needed in order to create a surface large enough for any structure, as the setbacks
required between walls is not acheivable with the utility setback from the northeast lot line.
The proposed location is the most logical placement on this site and requires the least modification of the applicable provi-
sions as we are asking for an exemption from the front yard accesory structure setback only and have provided additional
screening and design elements which will express the intent of the front yard setback by screening the accesory structure from
the sidewalk level and providing a “setting” for the structure which gives it intention. This location also requires the least use of
resources, regrading and retaining. The proposed location will also create the lowest impact on all of the adjacent neighbors
which is evident in the support the owners have received in this variance application.
D) Would not conflict with the provisions of Section 9-9-17, Solar Access B.R.C. 1981
Response: Within section 9-9-17 of the B.R.C. this lot is considered located in SA Area I (the site is zoning district RL-1) and
“No person shall erect an object or structure on any other lot that would shade a protected lot in SA Area I to a greater degree
than the lot would be shaded by a solar fence twelve feet in height, between two hours before and two hours after local solar
noon on a clear winter solstice day” In the solar access worksheet it states “If the proposed construction consists exclusively of
building elements that are shorter than the solar fence in Question, no solar analysis is required. Our Zone district is protected
by a12’ solar fence and our structure is 9’ in height so we are below the required height required for a solar analysis.
Please see the attached plans and diagrams which illlustrate the information on the existing site conditions, the accesory
building and depict the landscape renovation which has been permitted and is currently under consttuction. We look
forward to reviewing this with you and providing any additional information you may request.

BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT VARIANCE APPLICATION
-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Dear Board of Zoning Adjustments
Thank you for considering our project for a zoning variance for the accesory structure setback requirements. Our
project is located at 1951 Alpine Avenue in Boulder, CO which is a single family residential property with an existing
residence. As part of the landscape renovation which includes new retaining walls, fences, steps, plantings and irriga-
tion, the owners have purchased a pre-manufactured sauna. This structure is 6.5’x 11’ x9’ tall and is constructed of high
quality construction materials. Due to the unusual nature of this site, which has a large front yard that faces both Alpine
Avenue to the south and Tyler Road to the north, the accesory structure setbacks limit the locations this element can be
placed. Aside from the challenges with the geometry, the site is faced with extreme grading conditions particularly on
the northwest side or rear yard which is one of the only locations within the accesory structure setbacks. The grading of
the rear yard is not only extreme but re-grading could compromise the stabalization of the adjacent lot which sits higher
in elevation than 1951 Alpine Avenue. We have submitted and been approved a retaining wall plan to provide a flat
space for a usable yard south of the existing residence which is the most suitable location for the sauna structure to be
placed.
Due to these existing conditions, the owners at 1951 Alpine are faced with a challenging lot which has very limited
flat, buildable areas located on the south side of the property. This is the reason for the location we are proposing the
sauna structure, on the southeast corner of the existing residence. We feel this is apropriate due to the hardship of the
site and have developed a landscape plan which incorporates the sauna in a thoughtful manner that is respectful to
the neighborhood. This structure is crafted of quality construction materials and architecturally compliments the house. It
will also be set within a new fenced-in flat lawn area and hidden to the east through fencing and vegetation. Several
neighbors have seen the plans and structure and have expressed their support of the design (we are gathering and
will provide letters of support to the BOZA from adjacent lots). In order to ensure this design is an asset for the neigh-
borhood, the landscape plan which includes retaining walls, fences, steps and new plantings will enhance the entire
corner increasing curb appeal while complementing both the sauna structure and existing residence. In accordance
with the BOZA variance criteria we feel this proposal satisfies all of the criteria. Below we have listed these in detail:
(1) Physical Conditions or disability:
(A) (i) There is unusual physcual circumstances or conditions including, without limitation, irregularity, narrowness, shal-
lowness of the lot, or exceptional physical conditions peculiar to the peculiar to the physical property.
Response: the unusual shape and extreme topography on the lot limit the ability for construction to an area located south of
the residence, which is currently not in conformance of the accesory structure setbacks. The side yard setback on the east and
west do not allow clearances from the adjacent property lines and the existing residence to provide adequate space for this
structure. The northwest side of the property sits, in elevation, well below the adjacent property at 1965 Alpine Avenue and is
currently retaining the grade of the adjacent property. Any disturbance of the existing slope could compromise the stability of
the land on both the properties at 1965 Alpine Ave. and 1975 Balsam Drive.
(B)The unusual circumstances or conditions do not exist throughou the neighborhood or zoning district in which the
property is located, and (see response to item C)
Response:This site is unique to both the neighborhood and zoning district in that it is a corner lot with a geometric alignment of
the property lines which compresses what would appear to be the rear yard, has very shalow side yards and the front yard
requires front yard setbacks on both the south and west sides because the lot is bordered by Alpine Avenue to the south and
Tyler Road to the west. When offseting the front yard property line by 12.5’, side yards by 5’ to the southeast and 10’ to the
northwest and 3’ from the smaller rear property line there are no remaining areas in which an accesory structure of this size (the
size considered acceptable as a shed (6.5’x11’)) in which the proposed sauna can be placed and still conform with the offsets
from the main residence. This is unique to the neighborhood as few sites of this size have the unique character of bordering two
streets and having such a small size for the rear yard. The grading of this site is also unique to the neighborhood in that the rear
yard has significant slopes but is also retaining the grade for the adjacent properties which side higher in elevation. There are
no other lots within the neighboorhood which feature both of these constraining factors.

BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT VARIANCE APPLICATION
-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
C) Because of such physical circumstances or conditions the property cannot be reasonably be developed in conform-
ity with the provisions of this chaper and (see response D):
Response:The existing residence which was constructed well before it was purchased by the homeowners is placed on the site
in a location in which the maining rear yard is not large enough for this structure to be located within it while conforming to the
accesory structure offsets from main residence (the largest distance from the main residence to the accesory structure setback
line on the northwest is 14’ which means the structure would sit 4’ from the main residence. The side yards are both narrow
(2’3” to the northwest and 6’ on the southeast and the front yard wraps two sides of the residence, limiting the constructable
area The topography in this location also does not allow for the construction of a structure witout requiring extensive retaining
which may compromise the stabalization of the residences adjacent to the site. This site is unique to this condition as the usable
remaining usable spaces on the site are the west and south sides of the property which are bordered by Tyler Rd on the west
and Alpine Avenue on the south, which causes a larger “front yard” setback on both sides. This with the existing house creates
a scenario in which there is no way to install an accesory structure on the site. Within this neighborhood these two factors
together combine to make this is a unusual circumstance.
D) Any unneccesary hardship has not been created by the applicant.
Response:The existing conditions of this site were the conditions in place when the current owners purchased the property. The
existing property lines whihc are causing the constraints with accesory structure setbacks and the topography is in the condition
of the site as it was purchased. In addition, as a good faith effort, the owners are making a large investment in the beautification
of the landsacpe in the front of the house by replacing aged retaining walls and walkways with new masonry walls placed to
preserve the existing trees, vegetation, fencing and walkways and patios which will be a benefit to both the architecture and
the neighborhood. The proposed location of the structure will have the least amount of impact to the grading and drainage and,
combined with the new landscape which is unders construction, will actually improve the setting and condition of the existing
sites grading, drainage and richness of the public-facing facade of the project. The hardships was created from conditions that
were established long before the homeowners purchased this property and the only modifications they have made are currently
being constructed to help retain the slopes and improve the stabalization of the site.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL VARIANCE APPROVALS:
(5) (A) Would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood or district in which the lot is located.
Response: The current neighborhood features an eclectic range of architectural styles and scale ranging from traditional design
materials such as masonry and wood to stucco and glass modern homes. Many of the more attractive landscape materials in
the neighborhood, which are ad integral part of the streetscape experience, include wood fences, steel planters and perenni-
als and grasses. All of these materials will be installed at 1951 Alpine Avenue as a part of the landscape renovation currently
under construction. Traveling west along Alpine Avenue many of the sites have detached garages which face Alpine Avenue
adding a smaller scale structure to the neighborhood experience. The proposed sauna structure, will be largely concealed
behind a new fence and plantings but when viewed will harmonize with the home’s color and is constructed of high quality
materials which will enhance the texture of the streetscape. The scale of the sauna will also provide interest to a stretch of Alpine
Avenue that is somewhat sterile and unfriendly for both pedestrians and vehicular experience.
(B) Would not substantially or permanently repair the reasonable use and enjoyment of the development of adjacent
property
Response: The homeowners at 1951 Alpine have spoken with the neighbors who are within the closests proximity of the loca-
tion of the sauna structure for which the variance is being requested. The neighbor to the east 1965 Alpine, and two neighbors
to the south (1996 Alpine Avenue and 2001 Mesa Drive). These neighbors have reviewed the proposed variance and design
and will provide written documentation supporting the variance. The structure itself is only 9 feet tall and will be concealed
behind a 6’ fence. The neighboring property to the east is the only property directly adjacent to the proposed structure and is
currently concealed from it by a large existing Pine tree. The structure itself because of its location will also have no impact on
the solar of any of the adjacent neighbors.

-PROJECT DESCRIPTION
(C) Would be the minimum variance that woudl afford relief and would be the least modification of the applicable
provisions of this title.
Response: The design team considered all of the possible locations for the proposed sauna and every possible
location would require a variance due to the unique constraints of the site. The location to the northeast of the
house, the “Rear Yard” may require multiple variances due to the minimal space from the house to the accesory
structure setback. The grading as well woudl require extensive retaining walls and without terracing would require
variances to retain the height needed in order to create a surface large enough for the structure. The proposed
location is the most logical placement on this site and requires the least modification of the applicable provisions as
we are asking for an exemption from the front yard accesory structure setback only and have provided additional
screening and design elements which will express the intent of the front yard setback by screening the sauna from
the sidewalk level and providing a “setting” for the structure which gives it intention. This location also requires the
least use of resources, regrading and retaining.
(D) Would not conflict with the provisions of Section 9-9-17, Solar Access B.R.C. 1981
Response: Within section 9-9-17 of the B.R.C.this lot is considered located in SA Area I (the site is zoning district
RL-1) and “No person shall erect an object or structure on any other lot that would shade a protected lot in SA
Area I to a greater degree than the lot would be shaded by a solar fence twelve feet in height, between two hours
before and two hours after local solar noon on a clear winter solstice day” In the solar access worksheet it states
“If the proposed construction consists exclusively of building elements that are shorter than the solar fence in Ques-
tion, no solar analysis is required. Our Zone district is protected by a12’ solar fence and our structure is 9’ in height
so we are below the required height required for a solar analysis.
Please see the attached plans and diagrams which illlustrate the information on the sauna and depict the landscape
renovation which has been permitted and is currently under consttuction. We look forward to reviewing this with you
and providing any additional information you may request.
