LETTER OF MAP REVISION BASED ON FILL
218-65-R

Community: City of Longmont, Colorado
Community No.: 080027
Map Panel Affected: 08013C0288 F
Map Effective Date: June 2, 1995

IN REPLY REFER TO CASE NO. 99-08-162A

We reviewed a request dated February 4, 1999, for a Letter of Map Revision. All required information for this
request, including the required review and processing fee, was received on March 25, 1999. Using the information
submitted and the effective National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map, we determined the property described
below is not in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), the area that would be inundated by the flood having a I-percent
chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood). This property was elevated by the placement of
fill after the date of the earliest NFIP map showing the area in the SFHA.

Property Description: Portions of Lots 1 and 2, Creekside Subdivision First Filing Replat A, as shown on
the plat recorded as Reception No. 1831115 in Book No. P-44 F-3, No. 39, and
portions of Lots 10 and 11, Rainbow Ridge First Filing Replat 0, as shown on the
plat, recorded as Reception No. 1831116 in Book No. P-44 F-3, No. 40, in the
Office of the Recorder, Boulder County, Colorado

Flooding Source: Lefthand Creek

The legal descriptions of the portions mentioned above are as follows:

Lots I and 2:

BEGINNING at the southeast corner of Lot I, thence N 00"32'43" E, 105.17 feet along the east lot line:
thence S 85020'03" W, 109.70 feet; thence S 76049'03" W, 128.53 feet: thence S 19016'20" W, 38.55 feet;
thence 19.86 feet along a curve to the left having a radius of 248.70 feet: thence S 21000'09" E, 49.99 feet
to the north right of way of Emerald Drive: thence along the right of way to the POINT OF BEGINNING.

Lots 10 and II:

BEGINNING at the southeast corner of Lot 10, thence N 35043'33" E, 125.22 feet along the east lot line:.
thence N 79"17'59" W, 126.74 feet: thence S 88011 '45" W, 115.88 feet: thence S 00"32'43" W, 105.17 feet
to the southwest corner of Lot 11: thence along the north right of way of Emerald Drive to the POINT OF
BEGINNING.

This letter revises the above-referenced NFIP map to remove the property from the SFHA. The property is now in
Zone X (shaded), an area of moderate flooding outside the SFHA. Because portions of the property remain in the
SFHA, any future construction or substantial improvement on the property remains subject to Federal, State, and local
regulations for floodplain management.

Although the criteria for removal of a parcel of land based on fill have been met for this request, we encourage the
floodplain administrator for the City of Longmont to require that both the lowest adjacent grade (lowest ground
touching the structure) and the lowest floor (including basement/crawl space) of each structure placed on the property
be elevated to a level at or above the base flood elevation.
