A worker-housing project proposed for an east Aspen neighborhood now has legal hurdles to clear in addition to governmental ones.
An Aspen condominium association and a nonprofit organization filed separate complaints late Friday against the city of Aspen over City Council’s 3-2 decision April 19 to remand an application for a five-unit housing complex back to the Historic Preservation Commission, which originally denied the proposal.
Using attorneys from different Aspen law firms, the plaintiffs Cooper Avenue Victorian Condominium Association Inc. and the group Save Aspen introduced the complaints in Pitkin County District Court.

The developers of a proposed affordable housing project are appealing last month’s denial of their proposal by the city of Aspen’s Historic Preservation Commission.
The appeal filed by Jim DeFrancia and Jean Coulter to the city means that the HPC’s Feb. 17 meeting will be reviewed by City Council, which could overturn the 3-1 vote to reject the proposal.
After listening to hours of public comment mostly from neighbors who oppose the project at two public hearings in January and February, HPC members denied the five-unit housing complex located at 1020 E. Cooper Ave. citing that it was too dense. ....
