DISCUSSION: The Pitkin County Environmental Health Department has reviewed the details of the Sovich application under the authority of the Pitkin County Land Use Code and the Pitkin County Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Regulation and has the following comments. On May 10, 2005, Carla Ostberg from the Pitkin County Environmental Health Department conducted a site visit to the property located at 121 Rainbow Lane with Brad Benson, representative of the owner. At that time, the applicant had applied for a building permit that would not increase the bedroom count and the purpose of the site visit was to evaluate the condition of the existing OWTS. On November 2, 2010, the applicant applied for an OWTS Use Permit in conjunction with the intent to obtain a building permit for the existing four bedroom residence. The proposed remodel will not increase the bedroom count. --- WATER SUPPLY: The residence is served by a private well. In 2003, the Environmental Health Department noted in memo to the Community Development Department that the well was not permitted and likely predated Division of Water Resources permitting. At that time, it was recommended that the applicant contact the Division of Water Resources regarding the well. The Environmental Health Department requires proof of adequate, legal water supply in conjunction with an OWTS Construction Permit. Since the applicant has not submitted an application for an OWTS Construction permit, no documentation on the well has been required. This documentation may be required in conjunction with an application for a building permit. P Led on Rrry W Pap r 0 0 --- SEWAGE TREATMENT AND COLLECTION: There is no OWTS file on the existing system. It is presumed that the installation of this system predates Pitkin County permitting of OWTSs. Although there is no record of this system, a site visit was conducted by this department in 2005 subsequent to pumping of the 1200 gallon tank and there was no indication that the system was not working properly. The absorption area is presumed to be located on the east side of the house, but exact size and location was not able to be determined. Landscaping (aspen trees) has been placed in that area, but does not appear to be negatively impacting the system. On October 6, 2010, Roger Maynard, an OWTS inspector licensed through Pitkin County, conducted an inspection of the system. At the time of the inspection, the tank was pumped and found to be overfull. The outlet line from the tank to the field was cleared and the system is now working properly. The County cannot issue a Building Permit until either an OWTS Construction or Use Permit has been obtained. In this case, the applicant obtained an OWTS Use Permit on November 3, 2010 and the permit will be valid until November 3, 2011. Ej PnnuH—Re 1, I'd ?.I I r November 9, 2010 To: Carl Anne Holcomb Pitkin county Planning Department From: Bill and Nancy MacKenzie 85 Rainbow Lane Re: 121 Rainbow Lane; Sterling subdivision, Lot 1 Parcel ID t#2643-081-01-001 Owner: Cheryl Sovich Request for vested Activity Envelope, Site Plan and Scenic Reviews for the purpose of additions and modifications to an existing residence. The app sites Section 7-10-50 and states the envelopes "provide for a continuation of the established uses of the subject property and neighboring properties for the continuation of the established uses of the subject property and neighboring properties." In regards to the above paragraphs Sovich has continually tried to tliliMberpraperty tato 2 w `ate twelm her landscaping business.r if she is referring to Braun's business, Braun has the right by code to have a one employee business. She has`t3 W 12 enMplcigees and she has currently, this fall, started to use it as a staging and storage area for her equipment and employees. We are concerned through subterfuge she is trying to slip this by the planning and zoning department. It must be emphasized in writing to her that this is illegal. Also, you must verify her square footage (house, shed, decks, proposed addition, etc.) to be sure the proposed additions do not exceed the FAR. The of alar Inch field should also be verified.! She has had continual problems with her septic system. 4*wxhv m count for the proposed build but fiduld be dbft to vddiy "VW c V' hd j3r6s&A ,1bptte system is adequately size* Why is her application so detailed and involved regarding protection of the vegetation? The vegetation is not 'natural' and was planted recently by Sovich since she bought the property. F 9 0 Bryan Daugherty From: Carla Ostberg Sent: Monday, January 10, 2011 1:26 PM To: Cad Anne Holcomb Cc: Bryan Daugherty Subject: Sovich Responding to the letter dated November 9, 2010 from Bill and Nancy MacKenzie: The OWTS was recently inspected as a requirement to obtain an OWTS Use Permit for pulling a building permit for a remodel of a home currently served by an OWTS that will not change the bedroom count. The floor plans presented as part of the OWTS Use Permit Application represented 4 bedrooms. Since there was no original construction permit issued for the OWTS, the primary goal of the inspection is to assure that the system is working properly. Repair of a clogged line from the tank to the absorption area did occur as part of inspection. Otherwise the system was found to be functioning properly. The exact location and size of the field was not determined; however, it is presumed to be located on the east side of the house. The letter noted 8-12 employees being on the property as part of a commercial landscaping operation. The existing OWTS was not intended for use by employees. Since there is no construction permit available for the existing OWTS, the applicant would either need to 1) modify/expand the existing system to accommodate the additional use or 2) prove that the existing system is sized properly to accommodate that use. Since the absorption area was not located as part of the Use Permit inspection and it is possible that the system predates Pitkin County septic system permitting, the latter option seems an unlikely alternative. It should also be noted that use of portable chemical toilets for employees of the landscaping business is prohibited (Pitkin County Code 6.28.140). A well permit was not requested by this Department as part of the OWTS Use Permit application. Well permits are issued by the Division of Water Resources. Generally, conditions of approval are cited and describe how the water can be used (i.e., one single family dwelling unit, irrigation of up to one acre, etc...). if a commercial landscaping business will be conducted on this property, it would seem appropriate that verification of the well permit conditions should occur prior to approvals. 10 Sheet List Sheet Number Sheet Name A-100 PROPOSED Architectural Site Plan A-101 EMating Floor Area Diagrams A-102 PROPOSED Floor Area Diagrams A-201 Existing First Floor Plan A-202 Exlating Second Floor Plan A-203 PROPOSED First Floor Plan A-204 PROPOSED Second Floor Plan V 6 O / g ® g 7242 � • °. � se °tis s —\� G \ Q d 4 / f 720 7240 </ 7242 44 4040 cry4lal Bridge DMe CerborWeb, Cdoeedo 274. 970. memec.com 970. 274. 901 i. crvn e�prv...o•w+.,�q " egro.ca vro-waen Sovich Res.
