RE: Supplemental Memorandum: No-Rise Certification to Floodplain Use Permit
112 West Magnolia Street, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525
CES Project No. 6300-01
This memorandum serves to supplement and further describe the work proposed with the Floodplain Use
Permit for Wells Fargo. The project site is located in the Old Town Basin 100-yr floodplain, a City of
Fort Collins regulatory floodplain. Since improvements area proposed within the High Risk Flood Fringe,
City Floodway, and Moderate Risk Floodplain, all work contained therein is subject to Chapter 10 of the
City of Fort Collins Municipal Code Flood Prevention and Protection.
The subject property itself is located within a Moderate Risk Zone and High Risk Flood Fringe, as defined
-yr floodplain for the Old Town Basin. Additionally, the adjacent public
right-of-way for Magnolia Street and College Avenue both contain High Risk Floodway and Flood Fringe
areas. Appendix A illustrates the existing Flood Hazard Areas affecting 112 West Magnolia Street. The
High Risk Flood Fringe boundary line starts at the back edge of the sidewalk along Magnolia Street and
covers the south half of the site. The Moderate Risk Floodplain covers the north half of the site.
The proposed Wells Fargo parking lot improvements do not require hydraulic analysis to show no-rise
because there are no changes to the Old Town Basin HEC-RAS model. The HEC-RAS cross-section is
located at an existing access to the parking lot, but is modeled with an ineffective area past the right-of-
way. The proposed work for the site will abandon this existing access, and be replaced with curb and
gutter. Since the existing Old Town Basin Model represents the proposed conditions, the City of Fort
Collins does not require an analysis to justify no-rise. Other improvements in addition to the parking lot
to be constructed within the 100-yr High Risk Flood Fringe include paving, curbs, sidewalk, utilities, and
landscaping. These standard site work items are allowed within the 100-yr Old Town Basin High Risk
Flood Fringe without the need for special provisions or additional documentation. See the appendix for
the location of the HEC-RAS cross-section and the section view of the cross-section
However, a portion of the proposed improvements (curb & gutter and asphalt patch), also reside within
the 100-yr High Risk Floodway. Per Chapter 10 of the Municipal Code, all work within the floodway
must be accompanied by No-Rise Certification. The High Risk Floodway follows the back of sidewalk
past the centerline of Magnolia Street and College Avenue. This means that a portion of the driveway,
sidewalk, and sidewalk chase will occur within the floodway. Curb and gutter will be replaced at existing
grade.

The primary technical justification used to support the No Rise Certification is the existing and as-built
survey information. Detailed existing survey data was gathered by King Surveying. A copy of the existing
conditions survey can be found in the appendix. The new curb, gutter, and sidewalk elements to be
constructed within the High Risk Floodplain shall not exceed the existing survey elevations when rounded
to the tenth of a foot. The permeable pavers underdrain storm system connection will also occur in the
floodway. All hardscape within the High Risk Floodway will be placed at or below existing grade, and
will be validated by an as-built survey.
There are two existing driveways along Magnolia Street and one existing driveway along College Avenue
that will be abandoned within the floodway to eliminate vehicular access to the site at these locations. A
new driveway cut and ADA access ramps will be installed on Magnolia Street to replace the abandoned
accesses. Filling in the old driveways and cutting in the new driveway should not impact the floodplain
since the existing driveways are represented with ineffective flow areas behind the right-of-way in the
hydraulic model. Existing and as-built survey points shall confirm that the elevation along the curb and
gutter is maintained. Therefore, the net effect results in no change to the floodway or flood fringe
boundaries and does not alter the Base Flood Elevations.
The purpose of Chapter 10 of the City of Fort Collins Municipal Code is to promote the public health,
safety and general welfare and to minimize public and private losses due to flood conditions in flood
hazard areas, which is accomplished by the governing methods and provisions contained therein. The
specific sections of Chapter 10 applicable to this particular Floodplain Use Permit are:
Sec. 10-27. Floodplain Use Permit A floodplain use permit shall be obtained before any construction or
development within the flood fringe and floodway pursuant to Chapter 10. The sitework proposed herein
qualifies as development by Sec. 10-16.
Sec. 10-45. Floodway Evaluations the proposed sitework within the floodway will result in no increase
in base flood elevations. This document accompanies the requisite No Rise Certification. Existing survey
information has been provided for the sitework area within the floodway. As-built survey information
shall be provided after the sidewalk, driveway, and parking lot improvements have been constructed to
ensure no change in the floodway boundary or increase in base flood elevations.
Sec. 10-111. Specific Standards for Nonstructural Development in Flood Fringe There are two existing
driveways along Magnolia Street and one existing driveway along College avenue that will be abandoned
within the floodway to eliminate vehicular access to the site at these locations. A new driveway cut and
ADA access ramps will be installed on Magnolia Street to replace the abandoned accesses. These non-
structural improvements are allowed in the floodway contingent upon the No Rise Certification reference
in Sec. 10-45 above.
This memorandum serves as documentation of the sitework proposed within the 100-yr High Risk Flood
Fringe and Floodway of the Old Town Basin floodplain. Improvements will occur with the Development
Construction Permit for Wells Fargo. The applicable sections of Chapter 10 of the City of Fort Collins
Municipal Code are reference above. A post-construction certification shall also be supplied to ensure that
the construction activities covered under this permit were consistent with the governing plans and
requirements. As-built field survey information shall be supplied in support of the post-construction
certification.

CERTIFICATION OF NO-RISE
This is to certify that I am a duly qualified registered professional engineer licensed to practice in
the State of Colorado.
It isto further certify that the attached technical data supports the fact that proposedor as-built
(Name of Development) activities in the
floodway willnot create an adverse rise or drop inthe 100-year flood elevations, change the
watercourse location, orimpact the 100-year flood elevations, floodway elevations, or floodway
widthson (Name of Stream) in accordance with
Section 4.2.2 of the Larimer County Land Use Code atpublishedcross-sections in the Flood
Insurance Study for Larimer County revised on February 6, 2013 and will not createan adverse
rise or drop in the 100-year flood elevations, change the watercourse location, or impact the 100-
year flood elevations, floodway elevations, or floodway widths at unpublished cross-section in
the vicinity of the proposed development.
