Incorporated in 1881 as a thriving silver mining town, the City of Aspen is now recognized for its world-class skiing, shopping, and high-priced real estate. With robust real estate sales, land development, land-use planning, and general public inquiry, it's critical for Aspen to have an easy-to-read zoning map.
Every public and private parcel is mapped within one of the twenty-four adopted zone district classifications, which determine the development use, dimensions, and intensity regulations on the property. Eight different zone district overlays are also depicted as certain areas of the city require additional regulations. The underlying aerial image provides reference of existing development and proximity to other locations.
In addition to the printed map, zoning information featuring such attributes as description, ordinance number, comments, and general zone classification, is also available online. The map is widely used by city departments and the private sector for land administration, permitting, planning, and analysis. The information in this map comes from enterprise GIS layers that are updated on a daily basis.
