Fwd: [External] square footage to the inside of walls
HiColleen,
After talking to the architect that desígned our house and the HOA, I now understand that Springridge Reserve bases
their sq ft calculations on interior dimensions.
Below ís an email from Todd Young with those calculations. Please let me know if you need anythíng else.

follow up - Springridge Reserve, Phase 3, Lot 32
Hello Brad,
I have corresponded by emailwith Greg Ba( Glenwood Springs Rural Fire Protectíon District's Fire Marshal and I
understand he may have already left a voice message. He was out of town attending the ICC code conference and I
could not reach him until today.
Responding to your earlier questions of last Thursday. To further confirm my understanding and historíc knowledge of
the Springridge Reserve subdivision and plat note history, I reached out to Andy Schwaller, the longtime Garfíeld County
Chief Building Official who retired in October 2A27. Andy retired in October and the CBO position is currently vacant.

You get ås rnany quÊst¡Õns as you llke.
From a practical standpoint ít makes gense to use fire area and one could csnsider it a building official interpretatlon.
lwould kick the question back to the fire district. Fire area is what the building officlal has tn work with. The fire distri

would b,e n'let, A non cornbustible cãnopy between the house and garage csuld also separate the garage area. I think t
At the end sf the day, the fire district should he lnvolved in the discussion since the plat note was based on their recsn
review,
I hope yÕu are welN. I did not think it wauld be so difficr¡lt to find a building official, I am sorry for the added wark you
hang in there,
