But before I can finalize my plan review, we need to receive the following items to complete your submittal application: 1. Soils Report — Please provide us with a digital copy of the soils report as referenced on Sheet S3.1 2. Engineered Site Grading & Drainage Plan — A site grading & drainage plan prepared by a Colorado licensed Professional Engineer is required for all lots in this subdivision. 3. Engineered Septic System — Design of septic systems in this subdivision must be Engineered by a Colorado licensed Professional Engineer. Please note that all of the above items were included in the Wooden Deer plat notes I emailed to you in February. We won't be able to finalize our building review until we have received this supplemental information. In addition, there is an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) shown on these plans above the 3 -car garage. In order to obtain final approval for a building permit, you will first be required to obtain a Land Use Change Permit (LUCP) allowing an ADU to be built on this property. This approval process is undertaken by working together with one of the Planners in our department. In addition to obtaining approval from Garfield County for the ADU, you may also be required to obtain approval from your HOA, especially since one of the County's requirements is to demonstrate adequate water, access and sanitation for the proposed ADU. Once I have received items #1 — 3 as described above from you, I will be able to complete my plan review. However, we won't be able to release drawings for building permits without prior approval of the ADU. Please contact me if you have any questions about the building permit issues, or if you'd like to visit with one of our planners about obtaining a LUCP for the ADU please contact our office to schedule a Pre -App conference to discuss with them the requirements to initiate the ADU land use change permit process.

The 2500 PSF number was a typo a from the HP Report. s the design was based on the 2000 PSF maximum bearing number you mentioned Sorry for the confusion & I will forward an 81/2" x 11" clarification sketch for your files. Thanks again. Dale Kaup Dale Kaup Kaup Engineering INC. 1129 Grand Avenue Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 (970) 945-9613 From: Dave Argo [mailto:dargo@garfield-county.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2017 8:21 AM To: Dale Kaup <dale@kaupengineering.com> Cc: Brad Crawford (crawforddesignbuild@comcast.net) <crawforddesignbuild@comcast.net>; Simon (cdbsimon@comcast.net) <cdbsimon@comcast.net> Subject: Wooden Deer, Lot 2 - Permit #BLRE-05-17-4748 Dale: I am currently reviewing a new residence for Brad Crawford located up at Wooden Deer, Lot 2. After reviewing the soils report prepared by HP Geotech referenced in your General Notes (Sheet 53.1) I discovered a discrepancy between your minimum soils bearing capacity (2,500 PSF) in contrast with the amount specified in the HP report (2,000 PSF). Can you please provide us with a clarification explaining the difference between these two numbers? Is there perhaps a more recent soils report that has adjusted HP's initial conclusions? If so, could you please provide a copy for our files. Thanks for your assistance in this matter. Dave Argo Plans Examiner Garfield County Community Development Department 1 Dave Argo From: Dave Argo Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2017 4:33 PM To: Brad Crawford (crawforddesignbuild@comcast.net) Cc: Glenn Hartmann Subject: Wooden Deer, Lot 2 Brad: Just to re -cap our mtg. earlier today with Glenn Hartmann, I wanted to reiterate the outstanding items we need to receive in order to finalize our plan review & issue a building permit for your Wooden Deer, Lot 2 project. Based on our discussion, it sounds like you expect to have all of these items for submittal to our office next Wednesday: 1. Engineered Septic System Design 2. Site Grading & Drainage Plan prepared by a Colorado licensed P.E. 3. Structural Confirmation from Dale Kaup about the discrepancy between soil bearing capacity (Structural drawings vs. Soils Report) 4. Revised Upper Level Floor Plan eliminating the Accessory Dwelling Unit above the garage. A couple of options to consider in revising this plan to meet building code requirements include the following: a. Accessing this space directly from the interior of the residence through a hallway connecting to living/dining/kitchen, in which case it will simply be considered another bedroom. Note that the full-size kitchen will need to be deleted if this option is chosen. b. Eliminating interior partition walls and reclassifying this interior space simply as a recreation room, exercise room or office. If this approach is used, you may include a half bath (but no bathing facilities — i.e., tub or shower) and you may not include a bedroom or kitchen facilities with full-size appliances. Hope this summary is helpful, and we'll look forward to receiving your amended plans next week. Dave Argo Plans Examiner C.

He stopped by the office earlier today to pick up this land use permit & and indicated that he will be calling for inspections within the next few days — perhaps while I am out of the office for the holidays — so wanted to let you know that he does now have approvals in place for this ADU. This LUCP requirement was called out in the "Conditions for Permit" (Item #5) on the approved plans. Attached is a copy of the LUCP for your information, including the Conditions of Approval (Exhibit B) and I will place a hard copy of this permit in the file. Thanks, Dave Argo Plans Examiner C\'.
