6/22/2023 8:29:48 AM 		The statement “No basements below grade are proposed for this site” is included in General Note 14 of the Final Plat (MS Civil Consultants, Inc., May 11, 2023). Provided Entech’s recommendations (March 7, 2022) are adhered to, CGS has no objection to approval. We offer the following comment (included in CGS’s previous reviews for the preliminary plat).

Page 11 of Entech’s revised report (Entech Engineering, Job No. 191088, March 7, 2022) states, “Where shallow groundwater is encountered, underslab drains or interceptor drains may be necessary.” As individual underdrains are typically tied to the storm sewer system or underdrain system that gravity discharges to a daylight outfall, CGS recommends that underdrain systems are designed early in the design stage and noted on the plans. No drawings were included with the current referral documents showing an underdrain system. 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.

6/12/2023 7:17:36 AM 		Academy District 20 is in receipt of File# SF2316 for approval of Copper Chase Sterling Ranch Final Plat.

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, SR Land, 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.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is familiar with the site. Based both on the location and type of action that has been taken CPW anticipates that the impacts to the wildlife resource from this project would be negligible.
