September 14, 2016 Mr. Russ Knodel 716 South 9th Avenue Brighton, Colorado 80601 SUBJECT: WELD COUNTY PLANNING REVIEW NAME: USR 16-0027 RV STORAGE Dear Mr. Knodel: The Fire Prevention Bureau has reviewed your submission to Weld County and have the following comments based on the 2012 IFC: 1) Note: The IFC defines a facility as a building or use in a fixed location including exterior storage areas for flammable and combustible substances and hazardous materials, piers, wharves, tank farms and similar uses. This term includes recreational vehicles, mobile home and manufactured housing parks, sales and storage lots. 1) Please provide a swept path analysis using the attached fire apparatus specifications to show that our fire apparatus will be able to navigate along the fire access roads within the facility: a. 503.1.1 Buildings and facilities. Approved fire apparatus access roads shall be provided for every facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. The fire apparatus access road shall comply with the requirements of this section and shall extend to within 150 feet (45 720 mm) of all portions of the facility and all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building or facility. b. 503.1.2 Additional access. The fire code official is authorized to require more than one fire apparatus access road based on the potential for impairment of a single road by vehicle congestion, condition of terrain, climatic conditions or other factors that could limit access. c. 503.2.1 Dimensions. Fire apparatus access roads shall have an unobstructed width of not less than 24 feet (6096 mm), exclusive of shoulders, except for approved security gates in accordance with Section 503.6, and an unobstructed vertical clearance of not less than 13 feet 6 inches (4115 mm). d. 503.2.3 Surface. Fire apparatus access roads shall be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be surfaced so as to provide all-weather driving capabilities. Note: The term "all-weather driving capabilities" would typically require some type of paved or hard surface. Gravel would be prone to problems in areas subject to much rain or in snowy climates where plowing. Brighton Fire Rescue District 500 S. 4`h Avenue, 3'd Floor • Brighton, Colorado 80601 Telephone: (303) 659-4101 • Fax: (303) 659-4103 • Website: www.brightonfire.org. e. 503.2.4 Turning radius. The required turning radius should be determined using the fire apparatus specifications attached. f. 503.2.5 Dead ends. Dead-end fire apparatus access roads in excess of 150 feet (45 720 mm) in length shall be provided with an approved area for turning around fire apparatus. See approved turnarounds that are attached. g. 503.6 Security gates. Where security gates are installed, they shall have an approved means of emergency operation. The security gates and the emergency operation shall be maintained operational at all times. Electric gate operators, where provided, shall be listed in accordance with UL 325. Gates intended for automatic operation shall be designed, constructed and installed to comply with the requirements of ASTM F 2200. 2) Please provide documentation that water supply requirements are met in accordance with the following: a. 507.1 Required water supply. An approved water supply capable of supplying the required fire flow for fire protection shall be provided to premises upon which facilities, buildings or portions of buildings are hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction. b. 507.2 Type of water supply. A water supply shall consist of reservoirs, pressure tanks, elevated tanks, water mains or other fixed systems capable of providing the required fire flow. c. 507.3 Fire flow. Fire flow requirements for buildings or portions of buildings and facilities shall be determined by Appendix B. d. 507.5.1 Where required (hydrant system). Where a portion of the facility or building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the jurisdiction is more than 400 feet (122 m) from a hydrant on a fire apparatus access road, as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the facility or building, on -site fire hydrants and mains shall be provided. Should there be any questions regarding this review please do not hesitate to contact me.

Therefore, pursuant to the State Engineer's March 4, 2005 and March 11, 2011 memorandums to county planning directors, this office will only perform a cursory review of the referral information and provide informal comments. The comments do not address the adequacy of the water supply plan for this project or the ability of the water supply plan to satisfy any County regulations or requirements. In addition, the comments provided herein cannot be used to guarantee a viable water supply plan or infrastructure, the issuance of a well permit, or physical availability of water. The application is for a site specific development plan and use by special use permit for an outdoor storage business on a 10 acre parcel identified as Lot B of Recorded Exemption RE - 4217. The facility would have a security system with no on -site staff, though the applicant is planning to build an office with one employee. The proposed water supply for the office is bottled water and a porta-toilet. The application materials indicate that there will be on -site landscaping. The applicant is also seeking a waiver to have a retention pond on -site instead of a detention facility. No information was provided about proposed water source for on -site landscape irrigation. Any water used for irrigation must come from a legally available water source. The applicant is seeking a waiver from the county's detention pond facility requirements so that they may install a retention pond instead. As described in the application materials, the proposed pond design will have no outlet and will not allow any storm water runoff to leave the site. The structure appears to be below grade; it is unclear if the pond will expose ground water and if the pond will continuously hold standing water or if the water is expected to infiltrate the ground within a given period of time. 1313 Sherman Street, Room 821, Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.3581 F 303.866.3589 www.water.state.co.us Margolis Land Company, LLC and John S. van Anne Special Use Permit September 15, 2016 Page 2 of 3 As described, the proposed retention pond does not appear to meet the requirements of a "storm water detention and infiltration facility" as defined in section 37-92-602(8), Colorado Revised Statutes. Any storage of storm water that does not meet the statutory criteria referenced above will be subject to administration by this office and must be capable of releasing all out -of -priority inflows or else obtain a court approved plan for augmentation. In addition, at no point should the pond expose ground water without first obtaining a court approved plan for augmentation and well permit. Attached is DWR's Administrative Statement Regarding the Management of Storm Water Detention Facilities and Post-WildlQnd Fire Facilities in Colorado, which describes the requirements of section 37-92-602(8) in more detail.
