This area is a part of a delineated floodplain area and requires a Special Use Permit in accordance with Section 6 of Garfield County Zoning Resolution . The purpose of county floodplain regulations is to permit only such uses that will not endanger life, health, public and private properties due to flood conditions. The property was included in the January 3, 1986 Flood Insurance Study of Unincorporated Garfield County produced by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and is determined to be mapped within the Zone AO area. The area is classified as an alluvial fan floodplain area with a shallow (1 foot) flooding depth and velocities of 4 feet per second. The primary drainage path is within this Community Panel is Helmer Gulch located approximately 1, 100 feet to the southeast. This gulch will convey most storm events away from the subject property to the northeast. The alluvial fan of Helmer Gulch encompasses the subject property. This area does not have distinct watercourses outside of the existing water channels and the path of flooding is unpredictable and cannot be determined. Blanket coverage is conservatively assumed in the floodplain mapping. The contractor's yard site is located in a high lying area along the cross-section of the alluvial fan. A significant drainage path is located approximately 300 feet to the east on the Piceance Energy parcel. This drainage path sits 7-12' lower than the proposed yard . This is the only major channel than extends south of the yard in the immediate area. A low point in the alluvial fan cross-section also exists 400 feet to the west. This drainage path sits 5-8' lower than the proposed yard. The Rifle Village South development has removed any historic drainage paths to the south . However, Village Drive falls to the west when it turns west at a tight horizontal curb south of the Parcel 4 . The proposed contractor yard sits in the most unlikely location of flooding in the surrounding area . A draft update to the Flood Insurance Rate Map is in circulation and review but has not been recorded. However, the floodway of Helmer Gulch is reflected in this map and shows it tightly confined within the alignment of Helmer Gulch. It also does not show the contractor 1517 Blake Avenue, Suite 101 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Telephone (970) 945-8676 -Fax (970) 945-2555 Parcel I Rifle Village South, Filing 1 Amended Plat May 24 , 2016 Revised June 1, 2017 Page 2 of 4 yard site within Zone AO in this draft mapping. The only flooding from the Colorado River is from in the Alleman property to the north. The current mapping still shows the need to place structures 2 feet above existing ground within the Zone AO. The proposed contractor's yard however does not propose any structures that would require flood insurance . Construction equipment and materials will be the limit to the proposed uses on the 1.26 acre yard. The distance from any defined floodway also eliminates the concern of materials washing downstream and harming neighboring properties and structures . The property to the north is a large open lot with no structures other than a water skiing pond . A past review of the site for a single-family home construction within Parcel B, of which Parcel 1 is a portion therein, approved a special use permit to allow placement of a single- family house within the Zone AO floodplain. This exhibit is attached in Tab 5. The proposed location of a small contractor's storage yard as defined in the site plan will not alter the alignment of any watercourses or their carrying capacity; therefore, no public or private properties will be caused endangerment. The revegetation the land previously disturbed and any minor grading that is still to be completed must be placed, compacted, and seeded according to Garfield County specifications. The following list of the Garfield County Land Use Code items is listed in order to aid in the review process: Use Restrictions in the Floodplain Overlay (Section 3-301.A) Table 3-301, Floodplain Overlay Use Restrictions Table, of the Garfield County Land Use Code shows that storage is allowed as long as the materials stored are outside of the floodplain, does not alter watercourses, and does not include materials that are buoyant, flammable, explosive, or otherwise injurious to human, animal, or plant life. The applicant will restrict the scope of materials stored to not include the categories listed above . General Standards (Section 3-301.B) The materials storage shall be placed to prevent flotation, collapse, or lateral movement resulting in hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads. This will be achieved by allowing flow patterns around the areas of material storage. The materials stored on site will not be those that have buoyancy and would float downstream during a minor shallow flood event as described the recorded FEMA map of l' of depth. The applicant does not see the need to anchor the storage materials that are planned for the site. The materials tend to be heavy and small shifts due to a shallow flood as described in the recorded FEMA map would not have any effect on downstream structures . The property to the north is vacant and in soils unsuitable for construction as is the case with the subject property. The only current land use to the north is a pond about 600' feet to the northwest. In order to minimize flood damage, the materials excavated from the cut area proposed on the grading plan will not be placed as fill to avoid additional material from washing downstream. According to the attached grading plan, only excavation and export of material Parcel l Rifle Vill a ge South, Filing 1 Amended Pl at M ay 24 , 2016 Revised June 1, 2017 Page 3 of 4 is necessary to revise the retaining wall. The balance of the grading was done over two years ago and fill was only placed along a high point on the crosssection of the lot. Specific Standards (Section 3-301.C) The grading proposed places the storage area approximately 7-12' higher than the drainage channel to the east and would be clear of any flow patterns from the south. There are no structures on the site. Recreational vehicles will remain on site for less than 180 days, licensed and ready for highway use, or anchored per Code. Floodway (Section 3-301.D) The site is clear from any floodway . tandards for Areas of Shallow Floodin g (Section 3-3 0 LE) There are no structures proposed on the site and there is a significant channel directly east of the site and another channel 400 ' to the west. The shallow flow patterns are unpredictable on this property but the off site basin are directed to the major channels and do not cross the contractor's yard so HCE does not predict that the shallow flooding reflected in the 1977 FEMA mapping impacts this location . The survey of the proposed grading of the contractor's yard site shows that drainage will be flowing to the west and east and can freely drain around the proposed stored materials. Alterati on of a Watercourse ( ection 3-3O1 . G) The proposed grading has no effect on a watercourse and flood-carrying capacity 1s not diminished . Development in the 100-yr Floodplain (Section 4-109.C) 1. The danger of flooding is low due to the high location along the cross-section of the floodplain . There are no base food elevations since the site is not within the areas of 100-yr flood but only within a special flood hazard area with a 1 foot depth of shallow flood with elevations relative to the existing ground elevation per the survey. 2. The danger to the individual owner is none . There are no structures currently on Parcel I . 3. The danger of materials moving onto other lands is small and the operator of the contractor's yard must following the County guidelines for securing stored materials and equipment. 4 . The rural zoning allows for small contractor's yards and the storage area borders other rural zoned properties . 5. The site is accessible to ordinary and emergency vehicles in case of an emergency. A turnaround space is available to the south of the contractor's yard and the slopes of the existing driveway area between 2-8% to the storage area . The County may ask that an access easement be created connecting the public road network to the turnaround if required by the Fire Marshall. Parcel 1 Rifle Village South, Filing 1 Amended Plat May 24 , 2016 Revised June 1, 2017 Page 4 of 4 6. No services required for the contractor area during and after floods due to lack of public streets and utilities. 7. The 1977 FEMA map show the site as Zone AO with velocities of 4 feet per second with the mapped shallow flow of I' in depth for the I 00-yr storm. No debris flow mapping exists in this area that HCE is aware of from the research. The site grading that is occurred is minor . Only the east end of the yard where a flat platform has been cut out has any cut/fill (approximately 250 CY). There is no indication from the field survey that the shallow flow would be act consistent with the mapped alluvial fan shallow flooding. 8. NIA. 9. The entire property is within the Zone AO area. The located selected is furthest from existing structures on the site. 10. The comprehensive plan reflects the area to be in low-medium density residential and adjoins a mixed-use community commercial property to the east. This site was rezoned from urban residential to rural recently so the contractor's yard space is now more compatible with low density residential and the commercial. Floodplain Analysis Submittal Requirements (Section 4-203 .0) 1. Floodplain specific site plan is included in Tab 6 of this application package . 2. The County requires that a certificate from a qualified professional engineer that states that nonresidential flood-proofed structures meet County Standards for Nonresidential Construction. This is not application since no structures are proposed for the contractor yard. 3. The County requires that a certificate from a qualified professional surveyor that states that all residential and mechanical equipment be at least I foot above the base flood elevation. This is not applicable since no residential structures or permanent mechanical equipment is proposed for the contractor yard . 4 . The County requires a description of the extent to which the natural drainage pattern is altered by the project. This is discussed in paragraph 2 and 3 of this letter. The only natural drainage paths sheet flow towards the east across the driveway to the Piceance Energy parcel which the storage proposed would not alter and the deep draw that encroaches on the west end of the yard that do not accept significant drainage from any offsite basins but will channelize some onsite flow. This grading within the draw and the slopes down to the draw will not be altered by the onsite grading. 5. The County requires an engineered drainage report per Section 3-301.B.G. of the code. See the individual categories within section 3-301 above . This letter is stamped by a certified professional engineer experienced in hydrology. Sincerely , Daniel R. Dennison, Project Manager HIGH COUNTRY E ~f.6ii!i~~~?-'
