[12/8/05] After additional research and discussion, it has been concluded that boarding houses can be on the residential electric rate. Rate ordinances from several years ago stipulated that boarding houses would be on the commercial rate; however, current rates are silent on boarding houses. Since the expected electric use pattern is like that of a residence, it has been concluded that the appropriate rate is residential. Anyway, there is very little difference between the two rates. Jim Swanstrom Great Thank You Topic: Site Plan Number: 9 Created: 12 / 6/ 2005 [6/22/06] The revised Site Plan, as submitted, still does not show the aforementioned concrete pad/ parking space in the front yard. This comment is still relevant. This 4-bedroom boarding is required to have a minimum of 2 off-street, unobstructed parking spaces. Is this being met? [12/6/05] Based on a site visit to Blevins Court, the Site Plan does not correctly show the off-street parking spaces in the front yard of this property. There is one additional concrete paved parking space to the northeast of the parking as shown on the plan. It is over the sidewalk as shown. Because of this additional space the allowable 40% parking in a front yard may be exceeded. This must be verified. Jim Swanstrom The existing layout has 4 parking spaces if you count tandem. But only 3 that connect directly to the street. With the boarding house permit the third space would have to be removed to meet the 40% rule. Are there any exceptions? The property was this way when I purchased it in 95 and everything works fine. Department: Engineering DeLaughter Topic: fire Number: 18 Issue Contact: Dan Created: 6 / 9 / 2006 [6/9/06] Dimension the existing access easement.

I am leaning towards converting this but need to have a complete understanding of the affect. I am thinking the only major change would be additional parking space but can it be tandem in this case.

Whom do I talk to about this issue? I have attached all of the redlined plans. If 1 understand the revision routing sheet correctly I am to hand in 2 copies of the revised site plans. That many are attached along with the two redlined site plans previously returned.

This site is in the Old Town drainage basin where the new develp.pment fee is $4,150.00/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. This fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued and is charged only when there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet. The fee may change as City Council is considering a new city wide drainage fee instead of the present fee which is based on a specific drainage basin. Comment: no changes planned 2. In the Old Town drainage basin a drainage report and construction plans are required if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 5,000 square feet. They would need to be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. 3 Comment no changes planned 3. If there is 5,000 square feet or less of new imperviousness, water quantity detention is not required nor is water quality extended detention. When on -site detention is required the release rate would be the 2-year historic for water quantity and extended detention would be required for water quality treatment. Parking lot detention is allowed as long as it is not deeper than one foot. If there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet, but less than 5,000 square feet, a grading plan is all that is required. If it can be shown that the total imperviousness, including one-half any adjacent streets or alleys, is equal to or less that the master plan imperviousness, the report and detention requirements are waived, but a grading plan is still required. Comment: no changes planned Water Wastewater Contact Info: Roger Buffington, 221-6854, rbuffington@fcgov.com 1. No changes planned to the existing water/ sewer services; therefore, no comments.

Based on the information provided on your Site Plan, there would be 4 boarders in 1,448 square feet, or 362 square feet per boarder.

Page 1 Number: 10 Created: 12/6/2005 [12/6/05) The Site Plan is relatively illegible and must be enlarged to a measurable scale of 1" = 20', or better yet, 1" = 10'. Also, the Vicinity Map is illegible and it is impossible to identify where 300 Blevins Court actually is on the map. Please see the attached example of a Vicinity Map that could be included on the Site Plan.
