However, before we can finalize our review and issue a building permit we need to receive copies of the following items: A. Soils Report — Please provide a digital copy of the soils report as referenced on the Structural plans. B. Engineered Site Grading & Drainage Plan — Per the Final Plat for Filing 6, an Engineered Site Grading & Drainage Plan is required prior to issuance of a building permit. As illustrated on the submitted site plans (Sheets A1.0 and A1.2), site drainage located above the residence is shown to drain onto the driveway and towards the residence, and there is not a drainage swale shown on the "high side" of the driveway to direct uphill drainage away from the building. These items should be addressed on the Engineered Site Grading & Drainage Plan. Please address these outstanding items at your earliest opportunity so that we can finalize our review and issue permits.

For clarification, the Site Grading & Drainage Plan as referenced in my prior email is required to be prepared by a Colorado licensed Professional Engineer (Civil Engineer) per Elk Springs Filing 6 Plat Notes ... so it's not just a simple edit of your architectural site plan.

The Building Department is charged with compliance with specific plat notes as shown on the final plats for many of the subdivisions throughout the County. In effect, the final plat and plat notes contained therein are legal requirements under which development within these subdivisions must comply. Unfortunately, this specific requirement for an Engineered Site Grading & Drainage Plan applies to Elk Springs properties and we can't simply disregard it. I would encourage you to always review final recorded plats (and plat notes) of all subdivisions located within the County to become familiar with specific requirements that may apply, as these will be verified by the Building Department during plan review.

Sounds like Garfield County is enforcing plat notes, that the HOA is not enforcing. See email below for our Elk Springs approval status. We were green lighted by the ARC. My client's construction loan doesn't have a line item for a civil engineer because the HOA told us we didn't need one, and it was not part of Garfield County's Building Permit Checklist. While I understand the position you're in, this will significantly derail our schedule. Appreciate your consideration. Thanks, FLYNN S.
