d. The max. building height in the NCM is 2 stories. The roof just has to have a
pitch no less than 2:12 and no greater than 12:12. The only circumstance
where the height in feet is an issue is how it affects the amount of side
yard setback required from the property line. You can have buildings that �7
are up to 2 stories, and may exceed 18 feet in height, however whenever any q� /
portion of a wall or building exceeds 18 feet in height, such portion of the
wall or building shall be set back from the interior side lot line an additional
one foot, beyond the minimum required, for each two feet or fraction
thereof of wall or building height that exceeds 18 feet in height. So what
this means is that you can't have any portion of the building higher than 18
feet within 5 feet of the side property line, or you can't have any portion of
the building higher than 20 feet within 6 feet of the side property line, or
you can't have any portion of the building higher than 22 feet within 7 feet
of the side property line, or you can't have any portion of the building higher
than 24 feet within 8 feet of the side property line, etc.
e. In accordance with Section 4.7(B)(3)(a)(1), the project is subject to Planning
and Zoning Board review because it is a new multifamily building on a lot that
contained a structure on October 25, 1991.

of each unit, and are due at the time of building permit.
Current Planning:
a. Refer to Section 3 (General Development Standards), and Section 4.7 (NCM

g. Underground any existing overhead utilities.
h. Ensure that roof drain spill out locations don't run water across the sidewalk.
Water & Wastewater Utility:
a. There's a 4" water line in Smith on the west side, and a 6" sewer in the alley.
b. There's an old brick manhole that will probably need to be replaced as part
of this project.
c. Each building (if you will have more than one building) requires a separate
water line and sewer line. We currently are looking at the possibility of
changing the standards to allow multiple units on one service.
d. Plant investment fees and Water Rights are due at the time of building
permit.
e. The water conservation standards for landscape irrigation standards apply.
Contact Lauri D'Audry in Utilities for more information about water
conservation.
Natural Resources:
a. Contact Tim Buchanan, the City Forester regarding proper mitigation if you
plan to remove any trees_ Done.
b. We suggest that rather than demolishing the existing building and having it
put in the landfill, to deconstruct the building and donate the materials to
Habitat for Humanity. Being explored.
c. The State requires a permit for the removal of asbestos, or the demo of a
building with asbestos. Contact Lorimer County Environmental Health for

Done. See design.
e. Use native plants/grasses and reduce bluegrass lawns as per LUC Article
3.2.1(E)(2)(3).
Fire Department:

d. Check with the building department to determine if the carport connecting
two units would make the proposal considered as one or two separate
buildings. No longer applicable. All units are attached.
e. The floor area of the proposed building is limited to 50% of the area of the iqT� I
lot. The floor area includes each "finished or unfinished floor level", U1-
excluding the basement. When it comes to attics, any portion of the attic
with a ceiling height of 7' or greater is considered to be a story, and is
therefore a floor level.
Stormwater Utility Department:
1. This site is in the Old Town drainage basin where the new development
fee is $4,150.00/acre which is it is subject to the runoff coefficient
reduction. This fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is
issued.
2. A drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required
and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in
Colorado. Done.
3. Onsite detention is required with a 2 year historic release rate for water
quantity. However the existing imperviousness is grandfathered and
there is the masterplanned imperviousness that if the site does not
exceed it then water quantity detention is not required. If neither of
those requirements can be met, another justification for no detention
may be the timing of the runoff into the Oak St. outfall system. Water
quality extended detention is not required since this area drains to the
Udall open space and water quality ponds. See civil engineering report.
4. This site is on the Stormwater Utility inventory map 8H.
5. Since alley improvements are proposed, the design engineer will need pay ?
close attention when designing it so that the existing drainage patterns OV
can be maintained or improved.
Engineering Department:
a. Street Oversizing Fees and Lorimer County Road Impact Fees are likely to
apply. Check with Matt Baker for the specific amount of these fees for
your project.
b. A Traffic Impact Study (TIS) will need to be submitted for review. The
TIS needs to addresses site access, and all modes of transportation
including automobile, bicycle, pedestrian, and transit. Coordinate with Eric
Bracke from Traffic Operations to determine the level of detail necessary
for the vehicular scope of the TIS. Coordinate with Tom Reiff from
Transportation Planning to determine the level of detail necessary for the
bicycle, pedestrian and transit scope of the TIS.
