Pikes Peak Regional Building Department
12/20/2018 9:56:19 AM 		Regarding a request for approval of a solar energy plan across multiple parcels (primarily 1200000040), Enumerations has the following comments:

1. An address separate from the existing residence will be assigned for the solar array for permitting purposes. The application indicates that the area where the array is to be constructed will most likely be separated from the existing parcel via sale. In that case, the address assigned to the solar array will be the parcel address for the new parcel, and the existing residence will retain its’ current address. The applicant should contact Enumerations to establish this address prior to submitting plans for review/permit.




Floodplain has no comment or objection.

12/18/2018 3:36:55 PM 		The 270-acre site (approximate centerpoint 38.9833, -104.2529) does not contain, nor is it exposed to, any geologic hazards that would preclude the proposed solar facility use. Terracon's 9/27/2018 geotechnical recommendations are valid; provided Terracon's recommendations are adhered to, CGS has no objection to approval. 12/18/2018 3:36:55 PM
