<br />future flood damages will be computed. It will be the <br /> <br /> <br />reduction in this potential flood damage that will <br /> <br /> <br />make up the bulk of the direct benefits for each flood <br /> <br /> <br />control alternative and the sensitivity of the BCA to <br /> <br /> <br />the development assumption should therefore be recognized. <br /> <br /> <br />C. Aerial photographs which may be useful in the economic <br /> <br /> <br />analysis. <br /> <br /> <br />Other data which will be necessary for the analysis are: <br /> <br /> <br />A. Structural Data - Residential and Commercial <br /> <br />For Little Dry Creek structural data were obtained from computer <br />printouts of the County Assessor's records of properties located in and <br />around the floodplain. The data obtained for each property were: <br />Legal description <br />Property address <br />Assessed valuation of structures <br />One of the difficulties in the use of the structural value data <br />rested with the inability to retrieve only those parcels which were <br />affected by flooding. Although the assessor's files can be assessed on <br />a parcel by parcel basis, the time involved in determining and keypunching <br />the permanent parcel number was prohibitive. Therefore, each parcel in <br />a given quarter section was printed out, thus placing the burden of <br />parcel identification on the analysts. Although this was a less costly <br />procedure than preselection of parcels, it was a burdensome, time con- <br /> <br /> <br />suming task particularly in the densely developed areas. <br /> <br /> <br />All structure values from the County Assessor's records were divided <br /> <br /> <br />by 0.3 to yield the market value because property under Colorado law is <br /> <br /> <br />assessed at 30% of actual value. <br /> <br />63 <br />
