Remaining comments related to groundwater to be addressed at final plat - final engineering. Approved preliminary plan allows administrative final plats. 7/10/2023 7:14:09 AM

The previous comment regarding groundwater monitoring was partially addressed in the letter from Entech Engineering Inc., dated June 15, 2023. Staff have the following concerns to be addressed with the final plat:

1. A detailed groundwater monitoring program will be required during and after the additional site investigation mentioned in the previous response to GGS comments, after site grading when some areas will be cut. Monthly and peak results should be provided to EPC.

2. Regarding potential interceptor drains, if needed, these will require a maintenance agreement by the Sterling Ranch Metro District. Any water rights issues will need to be addressed by the district.

1. See CGS comment #2 regarding groundwater monitoring/observations; respond to the recommendation that a monitoring/observation program be implemented.

2. The Sand Creek Channel plans show grading into lots 30-36 (Boise Ct.), 64-68 (Bison Valley Pl.), 67-70 (Irvine St.), 73-76 (Bison Valley Pl.); this grading and the maintenance access road adjacent to these lots need to be constructed before those lots are platted. Show the channel grading as existing or add notes calling out if it is proposed to be complete prior to platting these lots.

Sub summary form should be modified to match prelim plan acreages and State water finding.
The school tracts should be accounted for in the commercial use in the water summary form if they are to be included in the final plats to be approved administratively. A water finding should be made for these which the SEO did account for in their water finding letter.

Academy District 20 is requesting land dedication in lieu of fees per the existing El Paso County Code for all residential development within the Sterling Ranch Sketch Plan located within District boundaries as previously requested for all residential development within Sterling Ranch. The District is requesting that fees NOT BE collected as per previous responses regarding Sterling Ranch. The District is aware that Classic Homes is assuming the development of Sterling Ranch and that 2 school sites will be reserved within the Revised Sketch Plan. The District has been in discussions with Classic Homes regarding this filing; however, an agreement regarding the school sites between Classic Homes, El Paso County, and District 20 has not been finalized for the District 20 Board of Education to consider. Any agreement that District 20 would enter into must first be approved by the Board of Education. The District intends to utilize the land credits for ALL of Sterling Ranch in the future to pay for the sites being proposed by Classic Homes.

If you need additional information or clarification, please contact me.

The available referral documents include the Response to Colorado Geological Survey Review (Entech Engineering, Job No. 220571, October 7, 2022), Soil, Geology, and Geologic Hazard Study, Sterling Ranch East – Preliminary Plan No. 1 (Entech Engineering, Job No. 220571, April 19, 2022), Preliminary Plan (N.E.S. Inc., December 8, 2022), Letter of Intent (N.E.S., Inc., December 2022), and other documents.

Entech’s response to CGS’s comments and preliminary recommendations for mitigating the site’s hazards are valid. We offer the following comments and recommendations.

1. In the test borings Entech previously drilled, groundwater was encountered at 3 to 19 feet below grade during drilling, and Entech observed areas of ponded water in some locations. According to Entech (page 2 of their report), “The proposed housing has will (sic) potentially utilize crawlspaces, garden level basements, or full basements.” Entech’s response to CGS’s review indicated that three additional test holes were drilled, and groundwater was encountered in one of the test holes at 13 feet below grade during drilling and 11.5 feet the following day, but also indicated that these additional test borings were drilled in October (when water levels are lower). CGS recommends that these test holes continue to be monitored through winter and spring.

We agree with Entech (page 12 of their report), “A minimum separation of 3 feet between foundation components and groundwater levels are recommended.” Proposed floor levels should be at least three feet (preferably five feet) above maximum anticipated groundwater levels and maintained year-round. CGS recommends no below-grade construction in areas with seasonal shallow groundwater levels within three feet of proposed floor levels.

2. Page 12 of Entech’s report states, “In areas where high subsurface moisture conditions are anticipated periodically, subsurface perimeter drains will be necessary to help prevent the intrusion of water into areas located below grade.” According to the preliminary plans, an underdrain will be installed beneath the sanitary sewer for all residential streets. An underdrain system should be allowed ONLY if it can gravity discharge to a daylight outfall or is connected to an existing underdrain system that gravity discharges to a daylight outfall. CGS recommends the underground drainage system with connections to individual underdrains for each lot are shown in the plans. Individual foundation perimeter drains are intended to handle small amounts of intermittent, perched water and may NOT be used as the sole mitigation of persistent shallow groundwater conditions. Similar to other Sterling Ranch developments, if shallow groundwater conditions exist and mitigation measures are not possible, then NO basements should be permitted within the Sterling Ranch East development.

3. Entech identified areas containing potentially unstable slopes but states on page 11, “these areas are to be avoided” and provides a setback distance of 20 feet from the crest of these slopes unless stabilized. Once final grading is complete, Entech should review the grades to verify these areas will be avoided or regraded and that the appropriate setbacks from unstable slopes are adhered to.

a. For assignment of addressing for lots and tracts, place addressing marker (xxx) where they are intended to be utilized. Addressing marker for lots should be front door.
b. Rear Loaded homes will have unique address assignment and placement. A plat note will be required showing address placement.
c. Provide a 100 scale copy or larger of the entire APPROVED development plan (d.p.) to this department so that addressing can be assigned. Once received, the development plan will be placed on a list to be addressed. Development plans that are not yet approved may be addressed, however additional plan review fees will accrue if changes are made to the D.P. after initial addressing.
d. If underground service is needed prior to plat, submit a Utilities Addressing Plan (UAP), to Colorado Springs Utilities via the related link at https://www.csu.org/Pages/mapping.aspx For more information contact: Karen Carlton KCARLTON@CSU.ORG

Academy District 20 is in receipt of File# SP224.

Academy District 20 is requesting land dedication in lieu of fees per the existing El Paso County Code for all residential development within the Sterling Ranch Sketch Plan located within District boundaries as previously requested for all residential development within Sterling Ranch. The District is requesting that fees NOT BE collected as per previous responses regarding Sterling Ranch. The District is aware that Classic Homes is assuming the development of Sterling Ranch and that 2 school sites will be reserved within the Revised Sketch Plan. The District is waiting to receive information regarding an agreement between the county and Classic Homes which will clarify the Districts' request for land dedication for all of Sterling Ranch. The District intends to utilize the land credits for ALL of Sterling Ranch in the future to pay for the sites being proposed by Classic Homes.

If you need additional information or clarification, please contact me.
