Reference: Horch Accessory Dwelling Unit - File Number GAPA-01-17-8510
Dear Mr. Horch,
This letter is provided to you as the owner of a parcel of land located at 2567 SH 82 just
south of the City of Glenwood Springs in unincorporated Garfield County. The application
for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) was submitted on January 13, 2017 and has been
reviewed for technical completeness. Community Development provides the following
comments that need to be addressed:
1. Please review the names and mailing addresses provided for properties within 200'
of the subject site as it appears that the list submitted contained an omission. Has
this list been created within the past 2 weeks or more recently updated?
2. The application must demonstrate that legal and physical water is available to
serve the ADU. The application does not demonstrate how water is currently
provided to the single family home nor is there any documentation on how water
will be provided to the ADU. Based upon the pre -application meeting the existing
home is served by the City of Glenwood Springs water, however proof of this must
be provided. In addition a "can and will serve" letter from the City regarding
provision of water to the ADU is required.
3. The application must demonstrate how wastewater from the ADU will be satisfied.
The application does not demonstrate how wastewater is currently provided to the
single family home, however based upon the pre -application meeting the existing
home is served by the City of Glenwood Springs sewer system. The Applicant
must provide proof of this service as well as a "can and will serve" letter from the
City regarding provision of wastewater to the ADU.

4. An updated Title Commitment is required. Please provide a paper copy as well as
a linked electronic version.
5. The Pre -application Conference Summary Form is not the most recent
documentation completed on the property — please provide a copy of the form
dated March 4, 2016.
6. The applicant is responsible for providing the names and mailing addresses of
mineral owners of the subject site. Please see the attached information on how to
complete research on mineral ownership. If no mineral owners are found please
state that none were found and provide documentation on how the research was
completed.
7. The applicant is responsible for provided names and mailing addresses of owners
within 200' of the subject site. The information provided does not appear to be
recent and therefore must be updated as it was not complete.
8. Copies of building permits must be provided for the existing structure.
9. Access to the site has not been adequately addressed. Access to the site from
the state highway is through adjacent properties, please provide a copy of
easements or other documents regarding legal access to the highway. This
includes a State Highway Access Permit from the Colorado Department of
Transportation.
10. The Site Plan and the Grading and Drainage Plan must be submitted in 24" x 36"
size plans.
11. The application requests waivers from the submittal requirements as noted below:
a. 4-203 F. Landscape Plan — an ADU does not require submittal of a Landscape
Plan therefore a waiver is not required.
b. 4-203 L. Traffic Study — The application appears to discuss the trip generation
of an ADU and should further discuss legal access through adjacent properties
and the state highway access permit for access to the highway (please see
number 8. Above). The requested waiver for a basic traffic analysis is not
appropriate and therefore is not granted
c. 4-203 J. Development Agreement — This document is not applicable to an ADU
therefore waiver is granted on this submittal requirement.
d. 4-203 K. Improvements Agreement - This document is not applicable to an
ADU therefore waiver is granted on this submittal requirement.
