Dear Merl:
We have received your letter asking to confirm our phone conversation in which we
established that the proposed height of 75 feet for the new fermentation tanks would be
allowed in the Industrial zoning district.
In the Industrial zone district, the maximum allowable building height for non-residential
uses is four stories. In measuring the height of a building in stories, no story shall have
more than 25 feet from floor to floor.
Since the fermentation, tanks are considered to be a "building," and will require a building
permit, the maximum allowable height would be 100 feet. Therefore, the request to
install 75 feet high fermentation tanks is permitted in the Industrial zone district and
would not require a height variance. Please feel free to call our office at 221-6750 if you
have any questions.
Sincerely:
Ted Shepard

Pursuant to our conversation regarding the expansion of New Belgium Brewing, I am confirming that
under the current City Plan Criteria we will be allowed to install 75 foot fermentation tanks without a
height variance. The industrial zone allows up to 4-story structures with stories less than 25 feet for a
total allowed height of 100 feet.
The fermentation tanks will be Phase 2 Tank Farm identified on the FDP approved on October 16, 1997.
Priority of Phase 2 and Phase 3 has been revised, with the Phase 3 Warehouse being previously
completed. Phase 2 will also be completed in smaller increments with approximately one-half of the
tanks as first phase. We will review expansion with Storm Water and we will be applying for an
Administrative Amendment for approval of each sub -phase.
Please call>if;�questions or if you have any concems/comments on this phase.
