Hello Colleen
Myhusbandandlaretheownersof Lot52inCeriseRanch. ThankyousomuchforhelpingusgettheGradingPermit
processed. We closed on our lot almost a year ago, and I wrote the check to Garfield County for the Grading Permit last
November. I know COVID, holidays, and staffing transitions have created challenges, so we really appreciate your efforts
to help us get the permit process completed. Our excavator has been ready to start since January, so we are hoping you
are close! Please let me know if you need anything elsefrom us that would help expedite the process.
Thank you and have a nice day,

Hello JR,
Thank you for the cc: and for prov¡ding response comments, I was able to open your emaíled
attachments.
Dave Argo, Chief Buildíng Official, left employment with Garfield County on February 22,2022.
Unfortunately, I do not have an estimated timetable to offer on how soon we will be able to respond
and process Lot 52 Grading Permit.
The CBO position has not been filled, and we are sorting through workflows now.
l'll communicate with internal teammates and our Department Head to determine who will be assigned
to complete the case moving forward.
My apologies to you and the applicant for further delays,

Hi Bill,
Hope you are well, this feels clumsy. Basically trying to perform triage and keep on top of things as the corrections
come back in following Dave Argo's departure'
Fyl. On Friday, I was directed by Sheryl Bower, Communíty Development Director, to re-send iVA consulting engineers
,,corrections,, back outto Chris Hale (Mountain Cross Engineeríng), Garfield County's Referring Civil Engineerwho
provided the original correctíon comments to Dave Argo for GRAD-12-21" -727L360 Cerise Ranch Rd (Baker-obleski
Driveway). From the below email string, l'm concerned whether or not details are adequate for your need (or
hammerhead could be deferred to future residential building plans as they suggest)? I do not want thís 2nd referral to
Chrís Hale to be premature, if there is to be a corrected set of plans to view soon'
should I hold off on sending received corrections to chris Hale?
Or send the response received in our office on March 10-1L?

Bill,
We are planning to design a turnaround at the top of the drivewa¡ and to provide more details of the upper driveway
and parking area in general during the building permít process. For now we are only submitting for driveway and grading
permits. ls this turnaround something you can wait for or do we need to work on íncorporating it ínto the driveway
plans now for your approval?

Bill,
we had you review an early set of plans for thís project for the lot at the back of cerise Ranch, and receíved a few
comments from the county regardíng fire approval. we have done additional design since you last saw these plans,
including reducing the slopes of the road in a number of places to maintain L2Yo maximum slope on the drive. The
alignment of the road also changed slightly. The main question we need addressed by you is whether or not you are
okay with a driveway that holds L2% slopes for over 700 continuous linear feet, see yellow below:
3. Fire Ðistrict APProvals -
a. Lçcal fire juri:diction¡ typically have a 10Så maxirnr¡m Erade for fire and ernergency vehicles;

lf you could let us know your thoughts on designing the dríve at 12% slope for as long as we have shown, as soon as you
can, that would be verY helPful.

Bill,
We are working with the homeowner on this lot at the back of Cerise Ranch. Attached ís the previous engineer's plans.
The driveway seem$ to have been constructed mostly as shown and our plan is to show mostly the same layout. Will this
layout work for the FD? We are trying to get some high level costs together for the homeowner before they commit to
moving forward with construction and are just making sure there are no fatal flaws in our plans.
Feel free to give me a call with any questions on this.
