No comments from Planning and Community Development. There are still pending outside agencies that have not commented, please be aware that a failure to comment does not mean the agency may not have issues with the application. It is advised the applicant still reach out to those agencies if they feel that a commented is needed. |

Site geology. The site is underlain at variable depths by relatively loose material weathered from the underlying Pikes Peak Granite. Pikes Peak Granite is typically not problematic from a geotechnical, or foundation performance perspective. However, the rock is fractured and weathered, sometimes extensively. Both rock quality characteristics can impact slope stability and erosion potential. Additionally, the material weathered from the bedrock (commonly known as “Grus”, or “Colluvium”) is weaker and looser than the bedrock and can be highly variable in depth. Surface Drainage and Erosion. The onsite soil and colluvium (“Grus”) are highly susceptible to erosion. Concentrated, developed flows can cause serious and damaging erosion and rapidly erode the surface material down to hard rock. Site drainage should be designed and constructed to prevent concentrated flows from being developed within the site. Provided all the recommendations by Geoquest are strictly adhered to and an Open Hole Observation is performed as recommended by the engineer CGS has not objection to approval. Specifically, the recommendation to not allow surface or subsurface water to collect around the foundation wall is critical. (p.1) as is the determination of the necessity for perimeter drains during the Open Hole Observation. |
