No.8) with included floodplain map entitled "Flood Insurance Rate Map, City <br />of Loveland, Colorado"; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, said report with included map contains detailed hydrology and floodplain <br />delineations for the Big Thompson River, VYithin the incorporated portions of Loveland, as they <br />were on March 23,1999; and . <br /> <br />WHERAS, said report with included map contains approximate floodplain delineations for <br />Lake Loveland, within the incorporated portions of Loveland, as they were on March 23,1999; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, said report with included map revises previous floodplain information <br />contained in Resolution No. 381 (Table 1, Ref. No.5); and <br /> <br />FLOODPLAIN CONSISTENCY <br />WHEREAS, the detailed floodplain delineations contained in said report with included map <br />for the Big Thompson River are not consistent with the floodplain delineations contained in <br />Resolution Nos. 19,354.13, and 381 (Table I, Ref. Nos. 1,2, and 5); and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the detailed floodplain delineations contained in said report with included map <br />for the Big Thompson River are not consistent with the floodplain delineations contained in <br />Resolution No. 181 (Table 1, Ref. No.4) for the reach commencing approximately 1,340 feet <br />downstream of West First Street to approximately 710 feet downstream of Wilson Avenue, due to a <br />Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) issued on September 18, 1997, which showed the effects of more <br />detailed topographic information along the Big Thompson River; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the detailed floodplain delineations for the Big Thompson River contained in <br />said report and contained in proposed Resolution No. 491 (Table I, Ref. No.7) are based on the <br />same technical information and therefore should be consistent with each other; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the detailed floodplain delineations for the Big Thompson River contained in <br />said report and contained in proposed Resolution No. 491 (Table 1, Ref. No.7) are not consistent <br />with each other due to technical and publishing errors in stream stationing; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, said report with included map contains approximate floodplain information for <br />the south overflow of the Big Thompson River, from a point approximately 500 feet downstream of <br />the corporate limit of the City of Loveland that is approximately 1200 feet east of Taft Avenue <br />upstream to the corporate limit, that revises and is, therefore, inconsistent with previously <br />designated and approved detailed floodplain information within the City of Loveland, but which is <br />consistent with approximate floodplain information in proposed resolution No. 491 (Table 1, Ref. <br />No.7); and <br /> <br />2 <br />
