I, (print) , a Colorado registered professional engineer, verify that construction
of all stormwater facilities and grading is complete and hereby submit this certification.
Please answer the following questions by initialing the appropriate response. For each question initialed “No,” attach an
explanation detailing how this will affect stormwater drainage for this lot and any adjacent lots.
1. Certification includes attached Stormwater-approved grading plan. (NOTE: City’s
Building Department does not approve grading plans).
2. Certification includes the attached as-built survey dated (must be within 60
days of the date the certification is submitted) accurately and truthfully depicting
elevations for:
z Top of foundation/finished floor
z Finished grade on each side of the structure
z Quarter points along each lot line (not more than 50 feet apart)
z Break points/high points
z Swales
z Berms
z Retaining walls
z Air conditioning pads
z Window wells
z Any other appurtenance(s) within an easement
ϯ͘All elevations are within a 0.2 foot tolerance of the approved grading plan.
ϰ͘The top of foundation is at least 6 inches above the highest grade surrounding the
structure.
ϱ͘There is a minimum grade of 5% away from the structure within the first 5 to 10 feet
adjacent to the residence.
ϲ͘All slopes meet or exceed the minimum requirement of 2% (1% is acceptable on single
family lots when the swale is draining the runoff from only two adjoining properties)
and are not steeper than ϯϯ% (ϯ:1).
ϳ͘All flow lines of stormwater drainage swales are a minimum of 6 inches below the
elevation of ground adjacent to the structure and will direct drainage as shown on the
Stormwater-approved grading plan.
ϴ͘All downspout locations and discharge directions are shown on the as-built survey.
Runoff is directed into an appropriate drainage system or lot line swale, and it is not
directed onto neighboring properties.

In accordance with applicable standards of practice, I hereby certify the grading pattern is in
substantial conformance with the approved site and grading plan for 6449 Southridge Greens Blvd (Lot

Engineering representative visited the site on September 26 2019. Elevations denoted with ( ) on the
redlined site and grading plan attached mean an elevation is not within construction tolerance however
drainage pattern is in substantial conformance with approved site and grading plan.
· Main finished floor elevation is 06.24.
· Basement finished floor elevation is 96.37.
