Re: Case No. SUP-19-97 and VAR-05-97
Application of Greg Johnson for 80 Lot Mobile Home Park
Date: July 16, 1997
The City of Caldwell Engineering Department provides the following comments in regards
to the above referenced application:
1. The Engineering Department will not provide comment on the applicant's request for
a special use permit to develop a mobile home park.
2. The applicant's request for a variance from the requirement for two accesses on a
public street, is more appropriately addressed by the Fire and/or Police Departments
and the Engineering Department will provide no comment.
3. The applicant's request for the reduction of public right-of-way from 56 feet to 50
feet is an issue normally not raised in connection with mobile home parks. Most
parks opt for private streets. For a private street, a back-to-back of curb street
section of 37 feet is usually acceptable. The latest permit approved for a mobile
home park also included the requirement of 4-foot sidewalk on one side of the
street. If the applicant is desirous of dedicating a public street to the City, the issue
of right-of-way and other items should be discussed in derail with the Engineering
Department.
4. The applicant will be required to provide and install street signage and traffic control
• signage in the park prior to issuance of any building permits.
5. The applicant does not state whether public or private sewers are to be provided for
the park. If public sewers are provided, then it is necessary that maintenance
easements be provided within and outside the park. The City also requires that
manholes be located on centerline of streets.
6. The applicant does not state whether a public or private water system is to be
provided for the park. If a public system is to be provided, minimum separation
between sewer lines and water lines is to be 10 feet. Also, maintenance easements
are to be provided. We also suggest that the applicant look at possible ways of
looping the park water system into the City's main rather than providing a single access.
7. The Engineering Department strongly recommends that irrigation for lawns and
common areas be provided from other sources other than the City's potable water
supply. The approval of the applicable irrigation district for the irrigation and
drainage system may be required.
8. It is the obligation of the developer to provide adequate storm drainage to take care
of all impervious surfaces within the park. The design procedures and requirements
of the City are contained in a document entitled. City of Caldwell Engineering
Requirements for Design of Storm Drainage Facilities (Latest Issue).
9. Based on the information provided in the application of a special use permit, the
following permits will be required:
a. A permit from Union Pacific Railroad for a sewer bore under their mainline
tracks.
b. A Corp of Engineers permit for constructing a bridge over Indian Creek.
c. A Bureau of Reclamation permit for construction of a bridge over Indian creek
and perhaps for construction of a storm drainage out-fall.
10. If public streets are provided in the park, then street lighting meeting the minimum
requirements of the City of Caldwell, will also be required at developer's expense.
Street lighting meeting the minimum requirements of the City of Caldwell, and
located on a public right-of-way, may be dedicated to the City at the conclusion of
construction.
The above comments are not intended to be all inclusive, but address issues that appeared
on the applicant's submittal to Planning and Zoning. Applicant is invited to visit with
Engineering Department further as questions arise on this development. Applicant is also
required, if the special use permit is approved, to provide a complete set of development
plans subject to review and approval by the City Engineering Department. Some design
requirements may vary depending on whether public or private facilities are intended.

Mayor, City of Caldwell �J C

Dear Mayor Winder:
This letter is a follow-up to the Community Assistance Visit
(CAV) I conducted for the City of Caldwell on March 27, 1998. I
appreciated the opportunity to meet with Darrell Mayes, Gordon Law,
and Bud Knickerbocker to discuss the National Flood Insurance
Program.
The findings of this Community Assistance Visit indicate that
the city is doing a good job of regulating floodplain activity and
enforcing the floodplain ordinance the city adopted. Based on the
results of this CAV, your community's eligibility in the National
Flood Insurance Program is assured.
During the meeting, we discussed the regulation in your
floodplain ordinance that applies to floodway encroachments. Your
ordinance "prohibits floodway encroachments, including fill, new
construction, substantial improvements, and other development
unless certification by a registered professional engineer or
architect is provided demonstrating that the encroachment shall not
result in any increase in flood levels during the occurrence of the
base flood discharge" . The propose bridge over Indian Creek to
access the Creekside Subdivision will need to comply with this
regulation. I have enclosed a "no-rise certification" form that
can be used for this purpose. I have also enclosed other items
that were requested during the meeting.
If I can be of any further assistance or if you should have
any questions concerning the National Flood Insurance Program or
the proposed bridge construction, please feel free to call me at
327-7993 .
Sincerely
Fred Eisenbarth

Project: Creekside Mfd. Housing Park
Dear Jeff:
The property owner adjacent to the northeast side of Creekside Mfd. Housing Park had a fence
for his livestock that ended at Indian Creek. The construction activities for Creekside removed
this existing fence and replaced it with a site obscuring 6' chain link fence. This new fence will
need to extend to Indian Creek to match the existing condition prior to Creekside construction
activities. You will be responsible for any permits required to do this.
Also,the preliminary plat that was submitted to the City shows this 6' chain link fence extending
along the east boundary of Creekside to the southwest right-of-way line of Chicago Street(on the
north side of Indian Creek). The City will require this site obscuring fence to be installed in
order to meet the conditional use permit.
Note: These fencing issues, along with the completion of the tot lot fence and playground
system, and the screen on the overflow pipe in the detention pond will need to be completed
before 11/7/99, or the City will file a claim against the construction security and complete these
items at the expense of the owner and surety.
Sincerely,

Re: Creekside Mfd. Housing Park Fence
Dear Gerry:
I spoke with Pat Massey with F.E.M.A. regarding the fence issue at Creekside. He stated the
following two options you can pursue to construct the site obscuring 6' chain link fence that is a
part of the Special Use Permit:
1. Have a registered engineer conduct a"no rise determination"to prove that the construction of
this fence will not adversely impact Indian Creek.
2. Build this fence to pass the "base flood"(or 100 year event) by using a"hinge"or"break-
away"method of construction.
Any proposed changes to the special use permit must be submitted to the Community
Development Director(Linda James) for review.
Sincerely,
,} " LJ
