Dear Mr. Martin :
The Colorado Water Conservation Board at its regular meeting
on December 2 , 1982, approved the enclosed resolution( s)
designating floodplain areas subject to an intermediate regional
flood ( 100-year flood or one percent chance flood) in your
jurisdiction . The floodplain is described in Section
24-65. 1 -103( 7 ) , Colorado Revised Statutes 1973 ( 1976 Supp. ) , as
"an area adjacent to a stream which area is subject to flooding
as a result of the occurrence of an intermediate regional flood . "
The Colorado Water Conservation Board has prepared model
floodplain regulations which are available to local governments.
In addition, this board can provide assistance in the
interpretation of floodplain information and in the development
of floodplain regulations. We urge local jurisdictions to adopt
floodplain zoning and land use regulations in accord with the
models and under the authorities granted by the enclosed
resolution( s) .
If you have any questions or if we can be of further
assistance, please contact our office.
Sincerely,
•
