EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Recent improvements on Clear Creek near McIntyre Street have changed the stream's floodplain.
New floodplain and floodway maps have been generated for this reach of Clear Creek. It is
appropriate that the City Council accept the new study and maps and incorporate them into the
Floodplain Control Section of the City Code.
COMMISSION/BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission will hear the proposed ordinance amendment on November 20 and provide a
recommendation to the City Council.
STATEMENT OF THE ISSUES:
Coors Brewing Company constructed stream overflow improvements at their Clear Creek railroad
bridge east of McIntyre Street earlier this year. This project contains the flows in Clear Creek during
flood events and, therefore, has changed the 100-year floodplain downstream. Coors had an
engineering study prepared by CDM Engineering and has had Icon Engineering modify their Clear
Creek Flood Hazard Area Delineation. The revised pages and sheets are contained in an October 27,
2008 letter report titled Clear Creek Floodplain Revisions at McIntyre Overflow.
Adoption of the floodplain changes will allow the City to administer activities within the correct
floodplain boundaries.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:
None
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no financial impact to the City Budget.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
I move to approve Council Bill 21-2008, An Ordinance amending Section 26-803 of the Wheat
Ridge Code of Laws pertaining to floodplain control on second reading, and that it take effect 15
days after final publication."

It was moved by Commissioner DWYER and seconded by Commissioner
SCEZNEY to recommend approval of Case No. WA-08-14, a request for
approval of a 6-foot lot width variance and a 4.3-foot side setback variance
for Lot 2 of the proposed subdivision, for the following reasons:
1. Granting of the variance would not alter the character of the area.
2. There are numerous lots with nonconforming widths and setbacks in
the area, including several approved as variance requests by the
Board of Adjustment.
3. Granting of the variance should not impair the amount of light and
air to adjacent properties, increase congestion in the public streets or
increase fire danger.
A request for variance requires a super majority of five affirmative votes for
approval. Therefore, the motion failed by a vote of 4 to 2 with
Commissioners STEWART and CHILVERS voting no.
Since the variance request was denied, the right-of-way dedications and
subdivision plat could not be considered.
(The meeting was recessed from 8:45 p.m. to 8:50 p.m.)
B. Case No. ZOA-08-05: An ordinance amending Section 26-803 of the
Wheat Ridge Code of Laws pertaining to floodplain control.
The case was presented by Meredith Reckert and Tim Paranto. Coors recently
completed stream overflow improvements to the Clear Creek railroad bridge east
of McIntyre which has modified the floodplain downstream. Therefore the Clear
Creek Flood Hazard Area Delineation should be modified to reflect those
changes.
It was moved by Commissioner SCEZNEY and seconded by Commissioner
STEWART that Case No. ZOA-08-05, a proposed amendment to Section 26-
803.G of Article VIII, Floodplain Control, of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws,
be forwarded to City Council with a recommendation of approval for the
following reasons:
1. The proposed legislation adopts the new study.
2. It will allow the City to administer activities within the correct
floodplain boundaries.
The motion passed 6-0 with Commissioners TIMMS and REINHART
absent.
