[12/8/05] After additional research and discussion, it has been concluded that boarding houses can be on the residential electric rate. Rate ordinances from several years ago stipulated that boarding houses would be on the commercial rate; however, current rates are silent on boarding houses. Since the expected electric use pattern is like that of a residence, it has been concluded that the appropriate rate is residential. Anyway, there is very little difference between the two rates. Jim Swanstrom Thank You Topic: General Number: 14 Created: 12 / 6 / 2005 [6/26/06] Repeat comment. How is this requirement being met? [12/6/05] This facility, proposed for 6 bedrooms, must provide for one van accessible handicap parking space with wheelchair access into the building. Based on the information provided, it is difficult to determine if this development proposal satisfies the requirement. Jim Swanstrom. I understand that this requirement is actually for properties with 10 or more. So it does not apply to this property Page i Number: 26 Created: 6/ 26/ 2006 [6/26/06] Based on the plan scale of 1" = 10', the width of the proposed 3- car off-street parking area scales to be 23.5' wide. This is not wide enough for the required 3 parking spaces off-street. Jim Swanstrom The dimension shown is correct for the concrete as it already exist. Which give us three parking spaces 9 wide for a total of 27 feet and 19 foot deep? The scaling has been corrected Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Dan DeLaughter Topic: General Number: 1 Created: 11 / 23 / 2005 [6/8/06] The sidewalk is only 32" here.

This site is in the Old Town drainage basin where the new development fee is $4,150.00/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. This fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued and is charged only when there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet. The fee may change as City Council is considering a new city wide drainage fee instead of the present fee which is based on a specific drainage basin. Comment: no change in run off proposed 2. In the Old Town drainage basin a drainage report and construction plans are required if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 5,000 square feet. They would need to be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. Comment: no change in run off proposed 3 2. If there is 5,000 square feet or less of new imperviousness, water quantity detention is not required nor is water quality extended detention. When on -site detention is required the release rate would be the 2-year historic for water quantity and extended detention would be required for water quality treatment. Parking lot detention is allowed as long as it is not deeper than one foot. If there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet, but less than 5,000 square feet, a grading plan is all that is required. If it can be shown that the total imperviousness, including one-half any adjacent streets or alleys, is equal to or less that the master plan imperviousness, the report and detention requirements are waived, but a grading plan is still required.

Topic: Site Plan Number: 10 Created: 12/6/2005 [ 12/6/051 Neither the Site Plan map nor the Vicinity Map are legible. The Site Plan must be enlarged to a measurable scale so that the information can be read and understood. For a site of this size it would not be unreasonable to have the Site Plan at a 1" = 20' or, better yet, a 1" = 10' scale. Also, it is impossible to determine where 605 Lake Street is based on the information provided on the Vicinity Map. Please see the attached example of a Vicinity Map that could be included on the Site Plan.
