However, upon our initial review of your site plan illustrating the proposed building footprint, we cannot approve this project because it encroaches into the required 35-foot setback from adjacent waterbodies. Please refer to the redlined version of your submitted site plan attached to this email for further clarification of this setback requirement — as required per Garfield County's Land Use & Development Code — Section 7-203. *Please Note: I have also attached a copy of this section from our Land Use Code for your information. The Building Department is unable to proceed with review of your project as submitted. Should you desire to speak with one of our staff Planners to further discuss this setback, I would suggest that you contact Patrick Waller, who I have already consulted with to confirm applicability of this requirement. I have copied Patrick on this email and you may contact him directly by email or via phone at (970) 945-1377, ext. 1580. Please let us know if you will be revising your submission to comply with the setback requirements. Given the importance of this setback requirement, we require that any revisions to your project shall include submission of a site plan certified by a Colorado licensed Professional Land Surveyor and illustrating the "Typical and Ordinary High Water Mark" as defined in the Land Use Code, as well as the 35-foot setback line from this TOHWM. Until you decide how you'd like to proceed, we will place your building permit application in our "pending" review file. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Buffers. Visual and sound buffers shall be created through effective use of topography, vegetation, and similar measures to screen structures and activity areas from habitat areas. B. Locational Controls of Land Disturbance. Land disturbance shall be located so that wildlife is not forced to use new migration corridors, and is not exposed to significantly increased predation, interaction with vehicles, intense human activity, or more severe topography or climate. C. Preservation of Native Vegetation. 1. Proposed Land Use Changes are designed to preserve large areas of vegetation utilized by wildlife for food and cover, based upon recommendations by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife. 2. When native vegetation must be removed within habitat areas, it shall be replaced with native and/or desirable nonnative vegetation capable of supporting post -disturbance land use. 3. Vegetation removed to control noxious weeds is not required to be replaced unless the site requires revegetation to prevent other noxious weeds from becoming established. D. Habitat Compensation. Where disturbance of critical wildlife habitat cannot be avoided, the developer may be required to acquire and permanently protect existing habitat to compensate for habitat that is lost to development. E. Domestic Animal Controls. The County may require protective covenants or deed restrictions as necessary to control domestic animals by fencing or kenneling. 7-203. PROTECTION OF WATERBODIES. A. Minimum Setback. 1. A setback of 35 feet measured horizontally from the Typical and Ordinary High Water Mark (TOHWM) on each side of a Waterbody is required. 2. In the case of entrenched or incised streams, where the vertical distance from the bank exceeds 25 feet, all activities, except for those referenced in section 7-203.A.3, will adhere to a setback of 2.5 times the distance between the TOHWMs or 35 feet, whichever is less. 3. A minimum setback of 100 feet measured horizontally from the TOHWM shall be required for any storage of hazardous materials and sand and salt for use on roads. Setback s•-35'•Q'—� --HJgh WaterRraoy. Figure 7-203: Minimum Setback Distance Setback 7-9 B. Structures Permitted In Setback. Irrigation and water diversion facilities, flood control structures, culverts, bridges, pipelines, and other reasonable and necessary structures requiring some disturbance within the 35 foot setback may be permitted. C. Structures and Activity Prohibited in Setback. Unless otherwise permitted or approved, the following activities and development shall be prohibited in the 35 foot setback: 1. Removal of any existing native vegetation or conducting any activity which will cause any loss of riparian area unless it involves the approved removal of noxious weeds, nonnative species, or dead or diseased trees. 2. Disturbance of existing natural surface drainage characteristics, sedimentation patterns, flow patterns, or flood retention characteristics by any means, including without limitation grading and alteration of existing topography. Measures taken to restore existing topography to improve drainage, flow patterns, and flood control must be approved. D. Compliance with State and Federal Laws. Any development impacting a Waterbody shall comply with all applicable state and federal laws, including, but not limited to, CDPHE water quality control division regulations and the Army Corp of Engineers regulations and permitting for waters of the U.S. 7-204 DRAINAGE AND EROSION. A. Erosion and Sedimentation. Excluding Grading activities for agricultural purposes, development disturbing 1 acre or more is subject to the CDPHE National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit, unless otherwise exempted by CDPHE. B. Drainage 1. Site Design to Facilitate Positive Drainage. Lots shall be laid out to provide positive drainage away from all buildings. 2. Coordination With Area Storm Drainage Pattern. Individual lot drainage shall be coordinated with the general storm drainage pattern for the area. a. Drainage ditches shall have a minimum Slope of no less than 0.75%. Energy dissipaters or retention ponds shall be installed in drainage ditches where flows are in excess of 5 feet per second. Ditches adjacent to roads shall have a maximum Slope of 3:1 on the inside and outside edges, except where there is a cut Slope on the outside edge, in which case the edge of the ditch shall be matched to the cut Slope. b. Subdrains shall be required for all foundations where possible and shall divert away from building foundations and daylight to proper drainage channels. c. Avoid Drainage to Adjacent Lots. Drainage shall be designed to avoid concentration of drainage from any lot to an adjacent lot. C. Stormwater Run -Off. These standards shall apply to any new development within 100 feet of a Waterbody and to any other development with 10,000 square feet or more of impervious surface area. 7-10 Dave Argo From: Patrick Waller Sent: Monday, July 27, 2020 9:13 AM To: Dave Argo Subject: FW: [External] Attachments: 146 SURREY_recover-Model.pdf; HEIL OPTION 1.pdf Hi Dave, Attached is what the Builder plans on submitting for the Heil addition (35-foot setback from the Waterbody). Let me know if this will work for you. I did notice that the 35' setback goes through the existing Building, but I am guessing that this has already been permitted in the past. I think I would also like to see the pond on the survey if possible.

Only two permits are 4184 (1991 — created a second story) and 2813 (1983 — original Building Permit). I can check -in with the Assessor's Office to see if they have any records of the change in footprint to include the existing family room. I will let you know once I hear back.

I know it's sometimes like pulling teeth to find that info from the Assessor's office, but it would be good to know. If the existing family room already encroaches into the setback, there's not really much we can do about that ... right? Thanks for helping them through this one. Dove Argo Plans Examiner C.

Please contact Lindsay Krol at (970) 945-1377 to discuss what specific items we require when revisions are made to plans already submitted to our office, as well as the associated paperwork we need to receive along with the updated plans. I have also copied Lindsay on this email correspondence, so you can contact her via email if that's more convenient. Essentially, we will require (2) full-size copies of all drawings that have been revised, but in this case it may be best for you to simply provide us with (2) complete sets of new updated drawings since site plan and building configuration have presumably been changed to comply with the waterbodies setback requirements that you have been working together with Patrick on.
