Palizzi Residence - Permit #BLRE-11-17-501-0
Tom:
Thanks for sending over the requested information about your new residence in Aspen Glen last week. I unexpectedly
needed to travel out of state for a few days & returned to the office yesterday.
As I am now looking to finalize my review of your plans, I noticed that there really aren't very many construction details
included in your building permit set of drawings. Are there additional architectural & structural details now available for
us to review? lf so, can you please submit to our office for inclusion in this set of plans?
ln particular, we are looking for additional information about the following
Architectural detailing of various construction assemblies (walls, floors, roofs, ceilings, etc.) including insulation
at the building's thermal envelope.
Structural detailing at wall & floor framing, roofs, chimneys, etc.
Knowing that Aspen Glen requires more detailed information than what's included in these plans we now have, l'm
hopeful that your team already has completed many of these items and perhaps they simply weren't yet completed
when submitting for your building permit.
lf you could let me know if/when we can expect to see additional detailing as described above, l'd greatly appreciate it
Our preference is to receive full-size (24" x 36") sheets so that we can easily insert into the remainder of the approved
plan set. Once we have received these additional items we should be able to quickly finalize our plan review and issue
your building permit.
Thanks for your assistance -

Dave:
Soil survey is attached from H. P. Kumar.
I wasn't aware of the 6.2k rule. I planned on putting in an FPS as a matter of general safety and security anyway
The designer of that system is Phillip Roe, a NICET standard FPS designer.
Knowing that Garfield county uses the NFPA standard, I had a conversation with Bill Gavette of Garfield county FPD. Asked if there
was a cross tie between the two standards or if Garfield county would accept the NICET standard design. His words were to the
effect of "yes, however he would do a calculation for the system anyway". He offered up ideas to make the system a better "fit" with
Roaring Fork Water System.
Phillip: Garfield county is only able to offer a 314" Tap size at the lot
Scott I'm sure will answer the questions on drawing scale and building height.
Anything that l'm able to answer, please do not hesitate to contact me either email and or phone.
Thanx:
Tom

We are currently reviewing plans for a new S.F. residence for Thomas & Helen Palizzi located at Aspen Glen, Lot H-39. But before we
can finalize our plan review there are several items for which we need additional information and/or clarification including the
following:
a. Soils Report - Please provide our office with a d¡gital copy of the soils report by HP-Kumar as referenced on the structural drawings.
b. Fire Sprinkler System - Because this residence exceeds 6,200 S.F. in fire area the building is required to have an automatic fire
sprinkler system installed as required by Aspen Glen's Final Plat. You will need to submit a set of plans to Bill Gavette at the
Carbondale Fire Protection District for his review. ln addit¡on to receiving confirmation that you have submitted plans to the Fire
District, you will also be required to arrange with the Fire District to provide rough-in inspection and a final report as a condition of
our approval. You may contact Bill as follows:
o Phone: (970)963-249Lor
¡ Email:eavette@carbondalefire.org
c. Building Height - Unfortunately the plans which were submitted to our office are not accurately to scale which somewhat inhibits
our ability to verify building height at the proposed structure. All plans, elevations and sections are shown as tf 4" = !'-0" but, in fact,

We are currently reviewing plans for a new S.F. residence for Thomas & Helen Palizzi located at Aspen Glen, Lot H-39.
But before we can finalize our plan review there are several items for which we need additional information and/or
clarification including the following:
a. Soils Report - Please provide our office with a digital copy of the soils report by HP-Kumar as referenced on the
structural drawings.
b. Fire Sprinkler System - Because this residence exceeds 6,200 S.F. in fire area the building is required to have an
automatic fire sprinkler system ¡nstalled as required by Aspen Glen's Final Plat. You will need to submit a set of
plans to Bill Gavette at the Carbondale Fire Protection District for his review. ln addition to receiving
confirmation that you have submitted plans to the Fire District, you will also be required to arrange with the Fire
District to provide rough-in inspection and a final report as a condition of our approval. You may contact Billas
follows:
o Phone: l970l 963-2491 or
¡ Email: gavette@carbondalefire.org
c. Building Height - Unfortunately the plans which were submitted to our office are not accurately to scale which
somewhat inhibits our ability to verify building height at the proposed structure. All plans, elevations and
sections are shown asLf 4" = !'-O" but, in fact, these drawings more closely approximate3f L6" = !'-O" (however
that scale still isn't accurate either). Given this inaccuracy in the printed plans, we are limited in our ability to
review building height. However, based on the best calculations available to us, it appears as though the upper
roof over the garage is approximately 26-feet above the average natural grade (exceeding the 2S-foot height
limitation). Please provide our office with additional back-up calculations and/or accurately scaled copies of the
exterior elevations and building sections so that we may independently confirm that design meets building
height limits. For example, it would be useful for us to have the following information illustrated on exterior
elevations andlor building sections depicting the area in question: (a)Average Natural Grade = 6064.5 per Site
Grading & Drainage Plan; (b) reference datum or dimension which shows this natural grade to be L'-8 Tr" below
main level finish floor; (c) elevation heights of ridgeline and eave elevations at the upper garage roof; and (d)
plumb line measurement between average grade and mid-point of this roof.
Please contact our office should you have any questions about the above referenced items. Unfortunately, I will be out
of the office the remainder of this week (Tuesday - Friday) but will return to the office on Monday, December 4. ln my
absence, Andy Schwaller is available to answer any questions that you may have and I have copied Andy on this email
correspondence.
Thanks in advance for your assistance and attention to these items
