1. LUC 3.2.2(K) One parking space is required on each lot. Plan concepts A and B would meet this
requirement; Plan C would not meet the requirement. For the driveway layout, Plan B appears to be the

the City's Demolition/Alteration Review Process, Municipal Code Section 14-72. This process begins
with a determination of eligibility, which identifies the appropriate review process(es). The determination
of eligibility requires current color photographs, of all sides of each building or structure. Sufficient
photos should be taken to show the current condition of the building, especially any previous alterations
or additions. Digital photos are encouraged, and may be sent to jeinberg@fcgov.com or
kmcwilliams@fcgov.com. Hardcopies may be sent to P.O. Box 580, 80522; or dropped off at CDNS, 1st

2. The eligibility of a property for landmark designation does not, in any way, designate the property as a
Landmark; it does define which of the various City review processes the development application would
be reviewed under. If any of the buildings or structures are found to be individually eligible for Landmark
designation, then the project would be reviewed for compliance with LUC Section 3.4.7. Section 3.4.7. is
intended to ensure that, to the maximum extent feasible: (1) historic sites, structures or objects are
preserved and incorporated into the proposed development and any undertaking that may potentially
alter the characteristics of the historic property is done in a way that does not adversely affect the integrity
of the historic property; and (2) new construction is designed to respect the historic character of the site
and any historic properties in the surrounding neighborhood.
3. Owners of properties that are eligible as landmarks may choose to have the property officially
recognized as a landmark, and then qualify for financial incentives. Financial programs include 20%
State Tax Credits, $7,500 yearly no -interest loans, $15,000 Historic Structure Assessment grants, State
Historic Fund grants of $200,000 and more, and, for income producing properties, an additional 20%
Federal Tax Credit. Any work, both interior and exterior, which protects or promotes a building's historic
character by meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Standards
(hftp://www.cr.nps.gov/hps/tps/standguide/index.htm) can qualify. For more details on financial
incentives, please contact Historic Preservation staff.

1. It is important to document the existing impervious area since drainage requirements and fees are based
on new impervious area. An exhibit showing the existing and proposed impervious areas is required.
2. In the Old Town drainage basin a drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required
if there is an increase in impervious area greater than 5000 square feet. They must be prepared by a
Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. If there is less than 5000 square feet of new impervious
area, a drainage letter should be sufficient to document the existing and proposed drainage patterns. If
there is less than 5000 but more than 350 square feet of new impervious area; a site grading and erosion
control plan is required instead of a complete construction plan set.
3. Water quality treatment is also required as described in the City's Stormwater Criteria Manual. Extended
detention is the usual method selected for water quality treatment; however the use of any of the BMPs is
encouraged. (hftp://wvM.udfcd.org/downloads/down_ critmanual_vollll.htm)
4. The city wide Stormwater development fee (PIF) is $6,390.00/acre ($0.1467/sq.ft.) for new impervious
area over 350 sq.-ft., and there is a $1,045.00/acre ($0.024/sq.ft.) review fee. No fee is charged for
412 N. Whitcomb
