CO Springs DRE | Original | D | 2/2/2018 | KHYLLESTED | KHYLLESTED | The 7' retaining wall does not meet setbacks - if a revocable permit was obtained, it needs to be noted on the site plan. This lot is located in the landslide susceptibility area and requires site-specific geologic hazard report that must be conducted by a professional geotechnical engineer. The geologic hazard report review process has a $584 review fee and takes 3-4 weeks. Once a geologic hazard report has been completed by a geotechnical engineer, submit the following to the City in hard copy along with an electronic copy: 1. A completed Geologic Hazard application form 2. The $584 review fee 3.The site plan and any supporting documents (foundation plan, drainage report, development plan, final plat, etc.). The City will send the review documents to CGS (Colorado Geological Survey), who will provide a review letter back to the city within the 3-4 week timeframe. Depending on the outcome of the letter, the City will either return the document to the engineer for further revisions or ask the engineer to provide the City with a signed copy (hard copy and electronic) of the Geologic Hazard Report with the CGS letter included. If the report is ready for approval, the City will sign the report. The applicant can then submit the application and building permit material to the regional building department.
PLEASE NOTE: depending on the hazards present at the site, there may be additional site requirements and review time. If CGS and the city do not recommend building on the site, a disclosure letter may need to be signed by the property owners. Please contact Katelyn Hyllested at 719-385-7347 or at khyllested@springsgov.com with any questions or concerns. This information along with the Application for Geologic Hazard Review will be emailed to the contact on file. (see full review) | | CO Springs DRE | 1034348 |
