Chair continues lone Planning and Zoning item to May 21 after no quorum
Summary
Facing no quorum, the Chair of the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission moved to continue the single agenda item to May 21, 2025; a formal motion failed for lack of a second, but staff confirmed the Chair proceeded to continue the item and adjourned the meeting at 04:36PM.
The Chair of the Aspen Planning and Zoning Commission said, "I move to continue the item to 05/21/2025," after staff informed the meeting that there was not a quorum and that the Chair could set a date certain for continuation. The Chair attempted a formal motion but announced it "failed because you didn't have a 2nd."
Staff told the Chair, "Fortunately, there's not a quorum today," and advised that the Chair had the authority to set a continuation date; staff further confirmed, "The applicant is aware of this." Following that exchange, staff and the Chair agreed to continue the item to May 21, 2025, and the Chair adjourned the session, stating, "I will adjourn the meeting at 04:36PM." The meeting contained no substantive debate on the agenda item and no votes were recorded on its merits.
The continuance schedules the matter for the Planning and Zoning Commission on May 21, 2025; the record shows the single-item agenda was postponed due to the absence of a quorum and that the applicant had been notified, per staff confirmation.
