If the shelter has any type of batteries in it, you will be required to have an automatic fire sprinkler head(s) in there, since the building has sprinklers. The construction documents will have the extension of the existing building sprinkler system into the addition shown on the drawings. 2. If the generator is located in the trash enclosure, there would be an increased risk of fire. Consider locating the generator elsewhere or designing the space to minimize the risk of fire. This portion of the project has been removed. Stormwater Contact Info: Glen Schlueter, 221-6065, gschlueter@fcgov.com 1. As presented, this project should add less than 1000 square feet of new impervious area. However, if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 1000 square feet, a drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required and must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. A grading plan is required when there is between 1000 and 350 square feet of new imperviousness, but no drainage study is required. In this case, a drainage letter or a statement in the planning objectives documenting the total increase in impervious area is all that is needed instead of the normal drainage report. A grading plan isn't really needed either as long as there won't be a change in the drainage patterns. The planning objectives should also include a statement of the intent to match PAP ITEM: Verizon Wireless Telecommunication Facility MEETING DATE: June 2, 2008 APPLICANT: Kelly Harrison 1918 Lowell Blvd. Denver, CO 80204 LAND USE DATA: Request to construct a wireless telecommunication facility at the existing Senior Center site including7the expansion of an elevator tower with small, wall -mounted antennas to the west of the main entry; an equipment enclosure addition to the north side of the existing building; and an expansion of the existing trash enclosure for a new generator.
