Fri, 05 Jun 2026 22:16:30 GMT https://regulations.comparent.com/regulations/colorado/aspen/ Pitkin County (governing unincorporated areas around Aspen including Snowmass Village environs and Basalt) is coordinating with the city to develop consistent STR policies that prevent displacement of restricted Aspen operators into surrounding county areas. Sun, 01 Jun 2025 00:00:00 GMT colorado-aspen-2025-06-01 https://regulations.comparent.com/regulations/colorado/aspen/ Aspen implemented a cap on total investor-owned STR licenses and a tiered licensing fee structure that charges significantly higher annual fees for properties not used as the owner's primary residence. Revenue from STR fees is directed to the Aspen/Pitkin County Housing Authority. Tue, 01 Aug 2023 00:00:00 GMT colorado-aspen-2023-08-01 https://regulations.comparent.com/regulations/colorado/aspen/ Aspen STR licenses do not transfer when a property is sold. Buyers of properties operating under STR licenses must reapply, and given the investor-tier cap, there is no guarantee a new license will be issued. This directly affects the investment value of STR-licensed Aspen properties. Tue, 01 Aug 2023 00:00:00 GMT colorado-aspen-2023-08-01
