CONSIDERATION OF APPLICATION FOR NON-DESIGNATED BUILDINGS
Public hearing and consideration of an application to demolish a house and two accessory buildings
constructed c. 1920 at 3132 8th St., a non-landmarked property older than 50 years old, pursuant to
Section 9-11-23 of the Boulder Revised Code, 1981, and under the procedures prescribed by chapter 1-
3, “Quasi-Judicial Hearings,” B.R.C. 1981.
Address: 3132 8th St.
Legal Description: LOTS 15-18 BLK 19 NEWLANDS
Case Number: HIS2024-00239
Owner/Applicant: Andrew Stevens, Sopris Development
Case Type: Non-Designated Demolition
Code Section: 9-11-23, B.R.C., 1981
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this hearing is to determine whether the buildings are eligible for designation and to
consider the cost, condition, and relationship to the surrounding area. Staff considers the property is
eligible for designation as an individual landmark in that it shows character as part of the development
of the community, and exemplifies the cultural and social heritage of the community through its
association with the Long family and is a significant example of an architectural style of the past. However,
staff also considers that the applicants have demonstrated that the condition and cost of rehabilitation
of the house and garage are unreasonable, due to inadequate framing and foundation depth, and of the
unique application of a stone veneer to the frame house. Staff recommends the Landmarks Board
approve the demolition application for the house and garage. Recommended motion language and
findings are located at the end of the memo (link).

PUBLIC COMMENT
To date, staff has not received public comment regarding this application.
OPTIONS FOR THE BOARD’S DECISION
Pursuant to Section 9-11-23, B.R.C. 1981, if the Landmarks Board finds that the buildings proposed for
demolition meet the criteria in subsection (f), the application shall be suspended for a period not to
exceed 180 days from the date it was accepted by the city manager as complete, in order to provide the
time necessary to consider alternatives to the building’s demolition. If imposed, a 180-day stay period
would start when the completed application was accepted by the city manager (Nov. 19, 2024 when the
Landmarks Board fee was paid) and expire on May 18, 2025.
If the Landmarks Board finds that the buildings do not meet the criteria set forth in section 9-11-23(f),
B.R.C. 1981, the city manager shall issue historic preservation approval.
BACKGROUND

Analysis of Integrity
Historic integrity is the ability of a property to convey its historical associations or attributes. The
National Park Service defines seven aspects of integrity to evaluate properties (location, setting, design,
materials, workmanship, feeling, and association). 2

Figure 10. Modified description from the Boulder County Tax Assessor Card: original description including
“frame” construction was written in blue in 1929; new description including “stone” construction was written in
red in 1949.5
According to County records, the house was constructed in 1920. Updates on the Tax Assessor Card
show that between 1929 and 1949, the stone cladding was applied to the exterior of the house
replacing the existing wood siding. The garage was added to the property (replacing a smaller structure)
sometime between 1929 (when originally shown on the Tax Assessor card as a “private garage” and
1938 (when it appears with a “barn” in an aerial image).
Permits on file with Planning & Development Services are very limited and include the permit to add the
house to city water in 1939, digging a well in 1963, and roof replacement in 1981.
The building is in its original location. The original design of the building was modified in between 1929
and 1949 through the addition of stone cladding, replacing the original horizontal lap siding. The
building retains much of its historic materials, notably the stone cladding, wood siding in the gable end
and many of the windows. The wood shingle roof has been replaced. The window at the front gable end
has been covered with a corrugated metal sheet. The building demonstrates vernacular workmanship.
The building’s ability to convey a feeling of its time has not been diminished by the change in context
and the setting of the house on its property with mature trees and plants has not changed. In general,
the building retains its ability to convey its association with its early residents and architecture.

AREA HISTORY
This area is the ancestral homelands and unceded territory of Indigenous Peoples who have traversed,
lived in and stewarded lands in the Boulder Valley since time immemorial. When gold was discovered in
the mountains nearby, 60 original shareholders of Boulder City Town Company violated the 1851 Treaty
of Fort Laramie, also known as the Horse Creek Treaty, and claimed 1,280 acres alongside Boulder Creek
on February 10th, 1859.8 By the summer of 1859, thousands of gold seekers were in the Boulder area,
and many squatted on Indigenous lands, continuing the dramatic expansion of Euro-American
occupation of Indigenous lands that soon exiled Indigenous peoples from the Boulder area.9 In 1871, a
town government was organized under Boulder County regulations and included the original townsite
and additions to the east, south and west.10 William Newland purchased land north of Boulder that
same year. From the area survey: 11
In 1875, [William] Newland experimented with the successful raising of spring wheat, but
discovered that dairy production and truck gardening were more profitable. By 1876, Newland

10 By 1882, the town was divided into wards, and the offices of mayor, treasurer, and aldermen were created to manage the now seventeen
additions to the original townsite and the increasing population. By 1900, Boulder’s population had grown to 6,150 with twenty-eight additions
added between 1890 and 1895.

was growing one of the largest crops of strawberries in the Boulder area, with eleven acres
devoted to that fruit. Newland’s berries were marketed in Denver, as well as in mining camps. In
1876, his fields produced an estimated six thousand quarts of strawberries. Newland also grew
grapes and apples.
Newland began to carve garden lots of small acreages from his farmland to sell to others. … In
1891, the Newland Addition was platted, extending from Alpine to Grape avenues between 2nd
Street and Broadway.
The Newland plat was well irrigated, with both the Farmer’s Ditch and the Silver Lake Ditch flowing
through. With access to irrigation, many of the owners planted orchards and truck gardens. Although
the area remained relatively rural until after World War II, many builders, carpenters, and contractors
saw future opportunity to build houses for themselves and family members as investment properties.

of Broadway. Subject property outlined in yellow and street names/features added by staff.12
In 1953, the city council renamed the numbered avenues in North Boulder to eliminate confusion with
the numbered streets. The avenues were named after trees and shrubs in alphabetical order.
PROPERTY HISTORY
Land speculators purchased and sold large numbers of lots in Newland’s Addition before houses were
built in the area. Both Sarah C. Pearl Davis and Mary White owned the land before Mary White sold it to
Frank Howard in 1917.

Frank S. Howard (1917 – 1920)
Frank Howard purchased the lots from Mary White in 1917.13 The two had prior business dealings as
both appear to be successful real estate investors. Earlier in 1917, Mary White and Frank Howard were
together issued a permit to use city water to irrigate a lot near 21st and Goss streets to grow a garden to
help with food shortages.14
Frank was born in 1865 in Wisconsin.15 He married Mary Eva Scott on April 27, 1887 and they moved to
Boulder around 1899. Frank worked as the treasurer of an oil company, independent money lender and
real estate agent. The family, including children Edwin and Ralph, lived at 1024 Pine St. from about
1902.16 There is no indication that they lived at 3132 8th St., which appears to have been a real estate
investment.
Josiah Henry “J.H.” Albertson and Mabel Mae Albertson (1920-1935)
Frank Howard sold the property to J.H. Albertson in 1920 for $100.17 By 1921, married couple J.H. and
Mabel lived in the house with their two children, Frank (born June 10, 1908, died Nov. 8, 1984) and
William Orris (born Feb. 23, 1914, died Jan. 15, 2009).18
J.H. was born on April 28, 1876 in Battle Lake, Minnesota.19 Mabel was born Mabel Mae Mitchell on
March 23, 1886 in Golden, Colorado.20 They married on April 20, 1905 in Denver.21
J.H. was a cement contractor 22 in partnership with Thomas Mitchell, J.H.’s brother-in-law (Mabel’s
brother). Mitchell and Albertson Contractors constructed the Silver Lake Dam for the city 23 in addition to
paving multiple alleys.
It is not known whether J.H. constructed the house at 3132 8th St. or if it was built earlier than 1920. A
map24 of the city of Boulder and vicinity from 1915 (Figure 13) shows a part of the Newland plat
including lots 15-16-17-18 in Block 19 and a structure at lot 17, but the address does not appear in city

4826 in addition to lots 15-16 (subject property), all on block 19 (see (Figure 13). In 1927, Josiah was
issued a permit to build a frame garage at 3181 9th St. (since demolished) and possibly constructed other
buildings on the block.

Ira was born on Dec. 19, 1907 in Missouri.29 Minnie was born Minnie Jane Patrick on Oct. 16, 1904 in
Kampville, Illinois. They married on April 8, 1929.30 Their son, Linn was born on August 22, 1933.31 From
1932 to after 1940, Ira worked for the city in the Public Works Department. By the 1940s, Ira was self
employed and travelled to Alaska and other locations to work as a carpenter and laborer. He
constructed at least four houses in the Newlands neighborhood between 1948 and 1952.
Ira and Minnie purchased adjacent property 3222 8th St. (lots 19-20) from J.H. Albertson in 1941 and
constructed a new house on that lot while living at 3132 8th St. In 1922, Linn Long (who was a teenager
attending Boulder High School at the time) recalled helping to build the house, which includes the
same polygonal stone facing. The new house was completed in 1948 and the family moved in June.
They rented the house at 3132 8th St. to Thomas and Effie Lyla Kelly and their two children, Patricia
and Constance 32 and others while the Long family lived next door.
Both Ira and Linn were successful wrestlers, with Linn receiving a scholarship to the University of
Colorado, Boulder and later wrestling for the United States Army.
According to the University of Colorado:33
In 1952, Boulder native Linn Long fulfilled his childhood dream of becoming a University of
Colorado athlete. While participating in baseball and wrestling, his unique love affair with the
latter flourished upon his arrival at the university, which would ultimately map out the rest of
his life. Humbly unaware of the legendary accomplishments to come, he quickly became one of
the greatest wrestlers CU would ever see.
Born in a boarding house on the 700 block of Pearl Street, Long was destined to be a Buff. His
passion for wrestling began in the front room of his family's north Boulder home when he was
young. His father, Ira, would put the youngster in various holds and upon begging to be released
he would hear, “no, you have to work your way out.”
“When I was in fifth and sixth grade we had 10 cent tickets to the Saturday morning football
games, and when I entered high school I attended every Buffalo wrestling meet,” Long recalled.
Participating in multiple sports throughout his career at Boulder High School he realized that “he
was never going to be much taller than 5-6” and put all of his energy into wrestling. … In 1957
and 1958 he was selected to be a member of Team USA and was an alternate on the Olympic
team on three occasions. …

Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 13 of 200
Upon graduation from CU he joined the Army and coached wrestling for two years. Long spent
time traveling to Oklahoma for competition, but ultimately decided that he could make more of
an impact on the wrestling community if he returned to Colorado to coach emerging collegiate
wrestlers.
In 1961 he would return to CU and serve as the head coach of the wrestling team for eight
years. … Long has been a volunteer coach at Lyons High School since 1997. …
Long’s countless individual feats, and significant role in the success of CU’s wrestling program,
has earned him a place in the Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame, an honor he did not think would
ever happen. He expressed that he believes more often that not “wrestling is at the end of the
alphabet,” which is the reason he is grateful and excited to join the long line of remarkable
Buffalo Hall of Famers.
Ira died on Dec. 12, 2000 and Minnie died on July 15, 2004. Married couple Linn and Darlene Long
currently own the house.

STAFF ANALYSIS
CRITERION 1: INDIVIDUAL LANDMARK ELIGIBILITY
The following is a result of staff’s research of the property relative to the Significance Criteria for
Individual Landmarks (link).
HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE:
Summary: The property at 3132 8th St. meets the following significance criteria:
1. Date of Construction: 1920
Elaboration: County Records list the building constructed in 1920. The address is first listed in the city
directories in 1921.
2. Association with Persons or Events: Long family
Elaboration: The property has been associated with Ira and Minnie Long and their son Linn Long
since 1937. Ira Long was a local contractor and amateur wrestler. He applied the decorative stone
facing and likely constructed the garage. Linn Long wrestled competitively, including as a member of
Team USA at the Olympics in 1957 and 1958. He was head coach of the University of Colorado,
Boulder wrestling team for eight years and added to the Colorado Athletic Hall of Fame in 2014.
2. Distinction in the Development of the Community: Pre-WWII Newland development
Elaboration: The property is a well-preserved and unique example of the gradual development of
the Newland residential neighborhood that took place post WWII and is an unusual representation
of this period of Boulder’s development.
3. Recognition by Authorities: Front Range Research Associates, Inc.
Elaboration: The 3132 8th St. historic building inventory record (link) from 1995 notes that the
“house is notable as an example of native stonework and its polygonal stone masonry is also
significant.”
ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE:
Summary: The property at 3132 8th St. meets the following significance criteria:
1. Recognized Period or Style: Vernacular frame with masonry cladding
Elaboration: The house is an example of vernacular ornamentation of the building using stone
veneer cladding, which was applied by long-time owner Ira Long.
2. Architect or Builder of Prominence: Ira Long applied the stone cladding to the house and likely built
the garage.
Elaboration: Long built at least four houses in the Newlands neighborhood (3122 8th St. in 1948,
3070 8th St. in 1951, 2958 7th St. in 1952 and 3024 8th St. (since demolished) in 1952). All are
constructed in a hipped-roof box style in both wood frame and brick construction. One of the
houses includes polygonal stone cladding.
3. Artistic Merit: Unusual polygonal stone facing on frame construction.
Elaboration: Ira Long used an unusual polygonal stone to face the house. In 1948, he also faced
3122 8th St., the neighboring house to the south, with matching polygonal stone. None of the other
houses found that are attributed to Ira Long have included the polygonal stone facing.
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 15 of 200
4. Example of the Uncommon: None observed.
5. Indigenous Qualities: Use of local stone.
ENVIRONMENTAL SIGNIFICANCE:
Summary: The property at 3132 8th St. meets the following significance criteria:
1. Site Characteristics: Double lot in residential Neighborhood.
2. Compatibility with Site: The house retains its historic character, set back on the property with
mature trees, lawn and decorative plantings near the house.
3. Geographic Importance: Visual feature mid-block
Elaboration: The same faced polygonal stone is seen at the adjacent property to the south where
the Longs resided. Due to the close proximity of these two unusual houses, the property is visually
prominent.
4. Environmental Appropriateness: None observed
5. Area Integrity: The property is not located in an identified potential historic district. The
surrounding areas has an eclectic character and a wide range of building ages.
CRITERION 2: RELATIONSHIP TO THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The neighborhood experienced enormous population growth after World War II as many ex-servicemen
returned for higher educational opportunities and the student population more than doubled. Only
three pre-1929 buildings remain on the block (all on double lots). Additionally, three properties have
been redeveloped in the last 20 years. The remaining buildings were constructed between 1939 and
1955. Ira Long constructed at least four houses in the Newlands neighborhood between 1948 and
1952.
Figure 15. 3122 8th St. (one lot to the south of the subject property), constructed by Ira Long in 1948 shows the
same polygonal stone cladding in 1949 (left)36 and May 2022 (right).
CRITERION 3: CONDITION OF THE BUILDING
The applicant has submitted information on the condition of the building. See Attachment A –

Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 16 of 200
• A structural report from Ascent Group Structural Engineering, which concludes: “Based on
observations and the items noted above, it is our opinion that numerous and drastic repairs are
required to rehabilitate both the main home and outbuilding structures to a condition that is
safe for occupants. The priority of any rehabilitation would be to replace the foundations of the
house and garage with a foundation system that is stabilized and able to properly support the
structure above. This would be an expensive undertaking and should only be done under the
direction of a qualified structural engineer. The superstructures will also require substantial
repair and reinforcement, both to remedy existing damage / deficiencies and to correct damage
likely to occur as a result of the installation of new foundation elements. The total cost of repairs
is very difficult to estimate due to the nature of rehabilitating archaic and non-conforming
structures, but in our opinion, the necessary structural core and shell repairs would likely be on
the order of several hundred-thousand dollars.”
• Home Inspection report provided by Dave Spielman, Scott Home Services, that outlines the 31
maintenance items, 60 repair recommendations and 7 immediate actions/evaluation
recommendations.
• Soils report from Geomet Engineering, which concluded that “perimeter drainage systems
should be installed at this site if the structures are to have below grade spaces (basement,
garden level, or crawlspace).”
• Lead Paint report from Boulder Environmental, Inc., which identifies the presence of lead paint
at the exterior of the buildings.
• Asbestos report from Boulder Environmental, Inc., which concludes that there are asbestos-
containing materials on the interior of the buildings.
• Mold report from Boulder Environmental, Inc., which concludes that “Further investigation is
recommended to identify and mitigate the cultivation of mold spores in the workshop of the
garage.”
Staff considers that the applicant has demonstrated that the house has significant structural issues,
including its roof and floor structure, and the stone veneer. Staff considers these issues are not a result
of neglect, but rather due to the age of the building and the unusual application of a 6” stone veneer to
an existing frame building, inadequate roof and floor framing and a shallow foundation. While the stone
veneer is supported by a concrete ledge, the stone is not adequately attached to the frame structure
and the window and door openings are not structurally sound. The foundation is 12” deep, an
inadequate depth for Boulder’s climate.
Similarly, staff considers that the applicant has demonstrated that the garage has significant structural
issues: the roof structure does not have a ridge beam, and the joists are visibly sagging due to the span.
The garage walls are cast-in-place unreinforced concrete walls with significant cracks and no lintels or
supports were observed to support the stone over the openings. The slab foundation does not
adequately protect the building from settlement or erosion.
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 17 of 200
CRITERION 4: PROJECTED COST OF RESTORATION OR REPAIR:
The applicant has provided information regarding the projected cost of restoration or repair. The
materials include the following statement (see Attachment A – Application Materials):
Our professional estimate of the total costs to correct the issues identified in the main house and
outbuilding are approximately $700,000 and $400,000, respectively, exclusive of any cosmetic
improvements. These estimates are based on the findings and recommendations contained in
the above reports, as well as our 31-year experience in the Boulder area as a general contractor,
homebuilder, and remodeler.
The structural engineering assessment report in particular identifies numerous issues throughout
the structures, all the way from the below grade elements up to the roof structures. We
anticipate that correction of these issues will be challenging and very expensive. Performing the
recommended corrections is further complicated by the presence of expansive soils, as indicated
in the geotechnical report, and, in the case of the outbuilding, the challenges of working around
the existing slab-on-grade foundation. Furthermore, in the case of the main house, the stone
veneer is not believed to have any positive connection to the framed wall structure behind it and
appears to bear on a separate foundation element rather than the house foundation itself. Given
this, we believe performing the corrective actions recommended by the structural engineer is
likely to severely damage the stone veneer, which may necessitate it being rebuilt. In essence, we
believe it may not be feasible to preserve the stone veneer finish if the work recommended by
the structural engineer is undertaken – it would likely need to be fully or partially rebuilt,
depending on the level of damage it sustains.
The documentation concludes:
Based on the issues identified and our professional estimate of expense required to remedy these
issues, we strongly believe that correcting the issues identified in the existing main house and
outbuilding would be unreasonably expensive and laborious, particularly in light of the size and
value of the respective structures, and preservation of the stone veneer finish on the main house
may not be feasible if the recommended corrective actions are performed.
Staff considers that the cost of rehabilitation of the garage at $400,000, or $1,058 per square foot, is
remarkably higher than the cost of an average rehabilitation project, and of new construction of an
unconditioned accessory building.
Similarly, staff considers the cost of rehabilitation of the shell of the house at $700,000, or $730 per
square foot, is notably higher than the average rehabilitation project with a similar scope.
RECOMMENDED MOTION
Issue Historic Preservation Approval
If the Landmarks Board finds the buildings not eligible for individual landmark designation based upon
its historic, architectural, and environmental significance, or that the condition and estimated cost of
restoration or repair is unreasonable, staff recommends the following motion language:
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 18 of 200
I move the Landmarks Board approve the application to demolish the buildings at 3132 8th St., finding
that the buildings do not meet the criteria set forth in section 9-11-23(f), B.R.C. 1981.
ALTERNATE MOTION
Issue a Stay-of-Demolition
If the Landmarks Board finds the buildings may be eligible for individual landmark designation based
upon its historic, architectural, and environmental significance, and that it has not been demonstrated
that the condition and estimated cost of restoration or repair is unreasonable, staff recommends the
following motion language:
I move that the Landmarks Board issue a stay-of-demolition for the buildings located at 3132 8th St. for a
period not to exceed 180 days from the day the application was accepted by the city manager in order to
explore alternatives to demolishing the buildings.
A 180-day stay period would expire on May 18, 2025 (180 days from Nov. 19, 2024, when the Landmarks
Board review fee was paid).
FINDINGS
Staff recommends that the Landmarks Board adopt the following findings:
Approval of the demolition of the house and garage at 3132 8th St. is appropriate based on the criteria
set forth in Section 9-11-23(f), B.R.C. 1981 in that:
1. While the building is eligible for designation as an individual landmark consistent with the
purposes and standards in sections 9-11-1, “Legislative Intent,” and 9-11-2, “City Council May
Designate or Amend Landmarks and Historic Districts,” B.R.C. 1981, the applicant has
demonstrated that the condition and cost of restoration or repair is unreasonable, and
therefore, a stay of demolition is not appropriate.
2. The cost of restoration or repair and the conditions of the buildings are not due to unreasonable
neglect.
3. The character of the neighborhood has somewhat diminished over time and the loss of this
building would not constitute a significant impact on Boulder’s historic resources;

To: Landmarks Design Review Committee
Property Address: 3132 8th Street
Dear Landmarks Design Review Committee,
In our efforts to gain an understanding of the feasibility and cost of preserving the structures at 3132
8th Street, we have engaged several outside consultants to evaluate the condition of these structures
and provide recommendations for corrective action. The structures at 3132 8th Street include an
approximately 962 square foot main house, an approximately 378 square foot detached garage and
shop (outbuilding), and a roughly 6x10 corrugated metal storage shed.
The consultant reports that have been produced include the following:
- Structural engineer’s assessment
- Home inspection
- Geotechnical report
- Lead based paint screening
- Asbestos screening
- Mold spore trap screening
Our professional estimate of the total costs to correct the issues identified in the main house and
outbuilding are approximately $700,000 and $400,000, respectively, exclusive of any cosmetic
improvements. These estimates are based on the findings and recommendations contained in the
above reports, as well as our 31-year experience in the Boulder area as a general contractor,
homebuilder, and remodeler.
The structural engineering assessment report in particular identifies numerous issues throughout
the structures, all the way from the below grade elements up to the roof structures. We anticipate
that correction of these issues will be challenging and very expensive. Performing the recommended
corrections is further complicated by the presence of expansive soils, as indicated in the
geotechnical report, and, in the case of the outbuilding, the challenges of working around the existing
slab-on-grade foundation. Furthermore, in the case of the main house, the stone veneer is not
believed to have any positive connection to the framed wall structure behind it and appears to bear
on a separate foundation element rather than the house foundation itself. Given this, we believe
performing the corrective actions recommended by the structural engineer is likely to severely
damage the stone veneer, which may necessitate it being rebuilt. In essence, we believe it may not
be feasible to preserve the stone veneer finish if the work recommended by the structural engineer
is undertaken – it would likely need to be fully or partially rebuilt, depending on the level of damage
it sustains.
Additionally, we do not believe that the corrugated metal storage shed should be subjected to
preservation. We believe this structure is of little significance, is unsightly, and is of minimal value.
It is also largely not visible due to its location on the property (near the alley) and due to it being
substantially obscured from view by shrubs and trees.
Based on the issues identified and our professional estimate of expense required to remedy these
issues, we strongly believe that correcting the issues identified in the existing main house and

outbuilding would be unreasonably expensive and laborious, particularly in light of the size and value

be feasible if the recommended corrective actions are performed.

Re: 3132 8th Street Structural Condition Assessment
Boulder, Colorado
INTRODUCTION
At your request, we visited the property at 3132 8th Street in Boulder, Colorado on October 30, 2024. The purpose of our visit
was to perform a structural condition assessment of the unoccupied building to determine the feasibility of rehabilitating the
structure into a safe occupiable space.
The property we observed consisted of a home with a detached garage and shop. The house was initially constructed circa
1920 with an apparent rear addition and the garage being constructed at a later unknown date. The house is a single-story
building with a root cellar that faces west to 8th Street. The two-car garage sits behind the house with the driveway accessing
8th Street and the shop is attached to the back of the garage.
We understand the house has always been used as a residence. We are unsure if the detached garage was constructed at the
same time as the house. At an unknown time, there was an addition made at the rear of the house extending the kitchen,
adding a closet, and adding a root cellar. The garage also had an addition of a shop to the rear which took place at an unknown
time. We understand that originally both structures had wood siding but currently have a grouted stone facade approximately
6” thick.
STRUCTURAL CONDITION ASSEMMENT
This Structural Condition Assessment uses the following terms concerning the condition of building components and systems.
GOOD CONDITION: A component or system of the building would be deemed in good condition if it is intact, structurally sound,
or functionally operational, is performing its intended purpose and has little to no visual defects. Components classified as
good condition require little to no repair but may require preventative maintenance actions.
FAIR CONDITION: A component or system of the building would be deemed to be in fair condition if it is generally structurally
sound or functionally operational and is performing its intended purpose; however it is showing signs of wear, fatigue, duress, or
deterioration exceeding normal expectations. There may be a failure of a sub-component of this system. Replacement or
rehabilitation of components or systems in fair condition may be necessary for up to 25% of the component system.
POOR CONDITION: A component or system of the building would be deemed to be in poor condition if it is no longer (or just
barely) performing its intended purpose and is showing signs of duress that necessitates remediation. Replacement or
rehabilitation will be necessary for 25% or more of the components of a system in poor condition. Failure or imminent
breakdown of this system is likely and may pose a safety hazard.
HOUSE
ROOF SRUCTURES
Description
The original roof is a gable roof constructed of dimensional lumber sheathing over slopped dimensional lumber where one end
bears on an exterior wall and the other against a ridge board (Figure 1). Intermittent collar ties and intermittent 2x supports
from the sloped rafters to the ceiling are present but are inconsistent. Often referred to as bungalow-style roof framing, this
system is heavily reliant on the ceiling joists and/or finish materials to provide overall structural stability. This system is not

commonly used in modern construction. The two chimneys in the house at have steel ties that extend from the top of the
chimneys to the roof. The roof over the rear addition is a hip roof that mainly slopes to the east. One end bears at the rear wall
of the original house and the other at the rear wall of the addition. We did not have access to observe the roof structure but
assume that its construction is similar to the main roof.
The rear porch roof is a monoslope corrugated roof constructed of dimensional lumber. The roof is attached to the side of the
house with a ledger then slopes east away from the house before being nailed to the side of a 4x4 beam. The 4x4 beam is
supported by two pipe columns that bear in a concrete slab (Figure 2). The front porch roof is a shingled monoslope roof
assumed to be constructed of dimensional lumber. We did not have access to observe the roof structure but assume that its
construction is similar to the main roof.
Condition
The roofs are in fair condition in their current state, but will likely require significant repairs and upgrades to extend the life of
the structure. There is a noticeable sway along the roof ridge of the original house, which is often an indication of inadequate
performance of the roof rafters, poor horizontal connections of the rafter heels to the ceiling structure, and/or overall inadequacy
of the ceiling diaphragm to resist horizontal thrust generated by the weight of the roof and applied snow loads. Without repairs,
this condition may continue to worsen over time and continued exposure to snow loads.
Recommendations
While the roof system appears to be functionally operational at this time and under current conditions, any modification of the
internal structure that would impact the roof would require a qualified structural engineer to analyze the impact. Additional
insulation will be necessary to bring the roof assembly into compliance with current IECC requirements, resulting in higher roof
snow loads which may exceed the capacity of the existing structural components. It is our opinion that comprehensive
reinforcement of the roof structure will be required to meet modern Energy Conservation Performance Standards.
EXTERIOR WALLS
Description
The exterior walls are constructed of 2x4 studs with no observed insulation between studs. The exterior face has a wood
material assumed to be dimensional lumber sheathing attached to the studs. An exterior finish consists of 6” thick grouted
stone that covers the full height of all the walls. No lintels or supports were observed to support the stone over openings.
Attempted removal of selected portions of the stone veneer on the south side of the structure was noted to cause movement of a
large area of the stone finish, and no positive connection was noted to exist between the stone and the backup wall framing.
The stone is supported vertically by a concrete ledge around the perimeter of the entire structure, suggesting that the stone
veneer is not original to the structure (this will be discussed further in the “Foundation” portion of this document).
Condition
The wall structure is in good condition though the stone finish is in fair condition. Numerous cracks were observed in the grout
between stones on all exterior walls, indicating the presence of foundation settlement and/or movement due to inadequate frost
protection.
Recommendation
Restoring the stone finish will not be a lasting solution if the foundation is not rehabilitated as indicated later in this report.
Any modifications to openings in the exterior walls should be reviewed by a qualified structural engineer to ensure proper
support for the stone siding. The existing 2x4 framed wall cavity is likely inadequate to accommodate sufficient wall insulation
to satisfy current IECC requirements, and the presence of exterior stone prevents the installation of supplemental exterior
building envelope insulation. As a result, the exterior framed walls of the structure will likely require interior furring to provide
the required R-Value for exterior wall systems, resulting in a loss of occupiable square footage.
INTERIOR WALL FINISHES
Description
The interior of the original house and rear addition primarily has a lath and plaster finish. The front bedroom has wooden ship-
lap panels installed vertically.
Condition
The condition of the interior wall finishes in most of the rooms is poor. Numerous cracks are present in the plaster primarily
where two walls meet or at openings (Figures 3 & 4), indicating widespread foundation settlement and/or movement due to
inadequate frost protection.

Recommendation
Repairing the interior finishes will not create a long-term solution unless the foundation is repaired as indicated later in this
report.
GROUND LEVEL FLOOR
Description
The ground floor level structure in the original portion of the residence was observed to be two layers of dimensional lumber
sheathing over dimensional lumber framing (Figure 5). The joists are 2x10 (1 1/2" x 9 1/4" actual dimensions) at 24” on
center spanning in the north-south direction and are nailed to a 2x rim, bearing on the exterior foundation walls or interior
demising wall. The floor joists typically had 0” - 4” of space between the bottom of the joist and soil at the bottom of the
crawlspace (Figure 6).
The ground floor level structure in the addition was observed to be similar to the original structure. The joists over the root
cellar are 2x6 (1 1/2" x 5 1/2" actual dimensions) @ 24” on center spanning in the east-west direction and bears on top of the
eastern exterior foundation wall and western root cellar wall. The joists over under the kitchen are 2x10 (1 1/2" x 9 1/4" actual
dimensions) at 24” on center spanning in the north-south direction. The joists under the kitchen had approximately 36” of
space from the bottom of the joists to the bottom of the crawlspace.
Condition
The floor framing is in Poor Condition. The floor structure was noted to be several inches out of level in numerous areas of the
original portion of the house, indicating substantial foundation movement throughout this area. We also observed evidence of
water damage (figure 2), and decay was observed at the top of an exposed floor joist. The extent of fungal decay will not be
able to be determined without the removal of significant portions of the floor sheathing.
Recommendations
Replacement or comprehensive reinforcement of the existing floor system would be required for future use of this structure,
which would likely be difficult or impractical due to the lack of an accessible crawl space in which to perform the work. While a
full structural design of a new floor system may be possible, the work itself is likely not feasible without also providing an
accessible crawl space, as described below.
FOUNDATION
Description
The original structure’s foundation consists of a grouted rubble wall around the perimeter of the house (Figures 7 and 8), and
we assume a section down the center of the wall. The foundation wall is approximately 12” in depth in height with no spread
footing. The exterior of the foundation has a 6” thick by 12” tall reinforced concrete ledge that aligns with the outer edge of the
stone veneer. The ledge wraps both the original house and rear addition without a construction joint between the two portions
of the structure, indicating that it was likely constructed either with the rear addition, or at a later date.
The foundation in the addition consists of unreinforced cast-in-place concrete walls around the root cellar and unreinforced cast
in place or grouted rubble under the kitchen extension. The walls of the root cellar are approximately 6’-0” high. (Figure 9)
Condition
This foundation is in Poor Condition. The depth of the foundation at the original house extends only a few inches below grade,
and as a result is inadequate to protect against movement due to frost action. This is widely apparent based on the extent of
the damage to interior wall finishes and the substantial sloping of the floor system throughout the structure.
Recommendations
For long term viability of the structure, extensive foundation work will be required to establish proper protection against frost
heave (minimum 32” to bottom of footings per City of Boulder requirements) and to provide an accessible crawl space. Repairs
will likely include phased removal and replacement of portions of the rubble foundation with proper concrete footings and an
appropriate foundation wall system such as cast-in-place reinforced concrete. Alternatively, the entire house could be
supported and raised by a qualified shoring contractor such that a new foundation can be constructed below the building.
These repairs are typically expensive, time consuming, and are likely to cause additional damage to interior finishes and the
exterior stone as the work is performed. In our opinion, the work necessary to repair the home’s foundation is likely to require
significantly more cost than is practical to remediate a structure of this size and overall condition.

GARAGE & SHOP
ROOF STRUCTURE
Description
The garage roof is a gable roof constructed of dimensional lumber sheathing over pitched 2x4 rafters bearing on the north and
south exterior walls and meeting at the ridge. No continuous ridge beam or ridge board is present and the rafters are fastened
at the ridge by wood gussets. The roof is open and is being used as an attic (Figure 10). Occasional vertical 2x’s run from the
ceiling joists to the rafters but the spacing & location is intermittent. Similar to the roof structure of the main house, the
bungalow-style roof framing of the garage is reliant upon the ceiling joists for overall structural stability. The ceiling structure
was observed to be 2x6 joists spanning north-south let into the concrete exterior walls with dimensional lumber sheathing on
top (Figure 11). Bracing was observed between the ceiling joists.
The shop roof was observed to be vaulted with a change in pitch on the north side. The structure of the shop roof was
concealed by interior finished and not able to be observed.
Condition
The garage roof system is in poor condition. Ceiling joists are let into cast-in-place concrete walls with no protection from
moisture observed, which can leave them susceptible to fungal decay. Furthermore, the ceiling joists clear-span between
exterior walls, are visibly sagging, and are significantly inadequate to support any occupancy or light attic storage loading above.
The shop roof structure could not be observed, but we observed substantial deflection in the vaulted ceiling which may be an
indication of undersized roof framing components.
Recommendation
Substantial structural repairs will be required to provide a safe and occupiable building shell. The roof and ceiling system over
the garage must be comprehensively reinforced or replaced in its entirety. While we were not able to visually observe the
structural components of the shop roof, it is our opinion due to the deflections noted above that substantial strengthening
and/or replacement will be required.
Exterior Walls
Description
The garage walls are cast-in-place unreinforced concrete walls. The windows openings and garage door openings are created at
the time of pour. The rear entrance from the garage to the shop was chipped out at an unknown date. The shop walls are
assumed to be 2x studs. An exterior finish consists of 6” thick grouted stone that covers the full height of all the walls.
Numerous cracks were observed in the grout at openings. No lintels or supports were observed to support the stone over
openings.
Condition
The exterior walls are in poor condition. The garage wall has a large crack through which sunlight can be seen (Figure 12).
Numerous cracks were observed in the grout between stones on all exterior walls. The transition between the garage and the
shop has a large crack in the grout on the north side about 1 1/2" wide (Figure 13). These cracks are indicative of significant
foundation settlement.
Recommendations
Repairing the concrete walls or restoring the stone finish will not be a lasting solution if the foundation is not addressed as
noted below. Any modifications to openings in the exterior walls should be reviewed by a qualified structural engineer to ensure
proper support for the stone siding.
FLOOR SLAB AND FOUNDATION
Description
The garage concrete walls bear on a concrete slab that acts as both the garage slab and the foundation (Figures 14 & 15). A
grease pit is in the floor of south garage bay (Figure 16). The shop walls also bear on a concrete slab that is acting as the
foundation (Figure 17).
Condition
The foundation and slab conditions are poor. Concrete slab-on-grade foundations do not provide adequate protection against
frost action and are often susceptible to erosion and settlement due to poor drainage.

ASCENT GROUP, INC. • 1711 Pearl Street, Suite 300 • Boulder, CO 80302 • 303.499.3022
Recommendation
For long term viability of the structure, extensive foundation work will be required. The foundation work should be designed by
a qualified structural engineer and may include intermittent underpinning of the slabs and with new concrete walls and footings
at a depth of at least 32” below grade These repairs are typically expensive and time consuming, and may cause substantial
damage to the superstructure during construction due to the difficulty of working around an existing slab-on-grade foundation.
In our opinion, the work necessary to repair the garage and shop foundation is likely to require significantly more cost than is
practical to remediate a structure of this size and overall condition.
GRADING AND SITE CONDITIONS
Description
The roofs have gutters that capture the rain and drain through downspouts that are directed away from the structures. The
grading around the house and garage is flat with a slight to no distinct slope away from the structures. Numerous trees are on
the plot including several that are directly against the garage and shop.
Condition
The condition of the site is fair.
Recommendations
Site grading and vegetation proximity should be reviewed by a qualified party.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on observations and the items noted above, it is our opinion that numerous and drastic repairs are required to
rehabilitate both the main home and outbuilding structures to a condition that is safe for occupants. The priority of any
rehabilitation would be to replace the foundations of the house and garage with a foundation system that is stabilized and able
to properly support the structure above. This would be an expensive undertaking and should only be done under the direction of
a qualified structural engineer. The superstructures will also require substantial repair and reinforcement, both to remedy
existing damage / deficiencies and to correct damage likely to occur as a result of the installation of new foundation elements.
The total cost of repairs is very difficult to estimate due to the nature of rehabilitating archaic and non-conforming structures,
but in our opinion, the necessary structural core and shell repairs would likely be on the order of several hundred-thousand
dollars.
Please refer to the body of this report for additional structural repair recommendations. This is not intended to be an exhaustive
or comprehensive list of all required building repairs. Removal of finishes may reveal damage or hidden conditions that were
not able to be observed during this initial visit. The repair recommendations made in this report are intended to be general in
nature, and final repairs will require additional design services by a qualified professional engineer or specialty engineer in the
case of repairs to historic structures. Please do not hesitate to contact our office if we may be of further assistance.
DISCLAIMER:
The general review of an existing structure is to visit the property, and through visual observation of accessible and visible
portions of the building, determine whether there is evidence to suggest significant structural irregularities. The nature of the
visual review requires that certain assumptions be made regarding the existing conditions of the structure. Further investigation
through removing finish materials to expose hidden portions to view or non-destructive and / or destructive testing and further
structural analysis are undertaken only when warranted by the site observation and specifically requested by the client. Further
investigation may uncover areas or provide additional data which could result in modifications to our conclusions of the
structural review. This document is therefore limited to that which we may observe and infer from the visible evidence and given
information. This document does not cover problems or irregularities for which were not visible or could not be readily
investigated without further testing and analysis.

Information/Overview
HOME INSPECTION REPORT:
The home inspection performed by Scott Home Inspection, a division of Scott Home Services, LLC, is a limited visualinspection to identify systems and components in need of immediate repair. The inspection will conform to the
Standards of Practice of the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) and will include the following systems: roof,
structure, electrical, interior plumbing, heating and cooling, exterior siding and trim, doors and windows, chimneys and replaces, driveways, walkways and site grading. The evaluation will be based on observations that are primarily visual
and non-invasive. The inspection and report are not intended to be technically exhaustive. This written report is asummary of observations and unbiased opinions and is based on the experience of the inspector.
This Inspection Report outlines and de nes the areas of the home that were inspected, as well as indicating any itemsthat were not inspected, the reason they were not inspected, and general statements of what is commonly included
and excluded during an inspection. This written Inspection Report, together with a home inspection agreement, andany reports for additional services ordered, represent the nal statement on the condition of the home when
inspected and the nal statement on what was included and/or excluded in the inspection.
INSPECTION CATEGORIES:
1) Maintenance Item - These are regular maintenance items typical for many homes, or items that should be
monitored for performance or future concerns. In the opinion of the inspector, repair or replacement to these items is
not urgent, but will likely be needed in the near future.
2) Repair Recommendation - The item, component or unit was inspected/tested, and is not functioning as intended. Repair or replacement is needed by a quali ed specialist.
3)Immediate Action/Evaluation Recommendation - The item, component or unit shows concerns that, in theopinion of the inspector, requires immediate action for safety and/or to prevent damage to the property, or needs to
be further evaluated by a quali ed professional.
SCOPE AND TERMS OF INSPECTION:
This con dential report is furnished for the use of the client only. It is not intended to be relied upon for any purposeby any other party not named on the report and Inspection Agreement. This inspection was performed in accordance
with and under the terms of a Home Inspection Agreement. The agreement was signed and agreed upon before thepreparation of this report and a signed copy of the agreement is available upon request. Scott Home Inspection, a
division of Scott Home Services, LLC, conducts all inspections according to the American Society of Home Inspectors
(ASHI) Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. The complete standards can be reviewed at the following location;https://www.homeinspector.org/Resources/Standard-of-Practice
LIMITATIONS:
Limitations exist in any home inspection. The inspector cannot see behind walls or behind hidden areas in the home.
The belongings of the current occupant of the home are not moved to view areas underneath or behind suchbelongings. Additionally, the inspection is not a test for hazardous materials, such as asbestos, lead paint, mold, or
other environmental hazards. If the inspector observes materials which inspector believes may contain hazardousmaterials, the Inspector will recommend further testing and evaluation. Any comments, notes or recommendations
made by the inspector are informational only, and Client understands that only proper hazardous testing candetermine whether any actual hazardous materials are present. The inspector is also not quali ed to detect the
presence of Chinese Drywall. Nothing herein shall be construed so as to require the inspector to observe or to warnClient as to potential hazardous materials. Any investigation concerning the existence or possible existence ofpotentially hazardous materials in any form is beyond the scope of the inspection services o ered by Scott Home
Inspection, a division of Scott Home Services, LLC.
BUILDING STANDARDS:Homes are inspected within the context of the time period in which they were built, taking into account the generallyaccepted building practices of that time period. The Inspection Report will comment on unsafe conditions, but
problems will be described as defects at the Inspector's discretion. Homes are not required to be constantly upgraded to comply with newly enacted building codes but are only required
to comply with building codes or generally accepted standards which existed at the time of original construction. An exception may exist when a home is remodeled, depending on the scope of work. New work must usually comply
with building codes in e ect at the time in which the remodel work is performed. We do not con rm that the work wasdone with the proper building permits for the City or County.
The General Home Inspection is not a building code-compliance inspection, but an inspection for safety and systemdefects. The Inspection Report may comment on and identify as problems systems, components and/or conditionswhich may violate building codes, but con rmation of compliance with any building code or identi cation of any
building code violation is not the goal of this Inspection Report and is beyond the scope of the inspection serviceso ered by Scott Home Inspection, a division of Scott Home Services, LLC.

OBSERVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
The following items were Inspected and Observed, with any Recommended Actions noted:
Exterior Inspection Overview:
A visual inspection of the exterior surfaces was performed around the home to include the exterior surface material,
so t/fascia surfaces, doors and windows, and other exterior surface areas including:
The exterior wall covering, trim, and ashing were visually inspected for concerns related to installation,paint/stain condition, damage and general maintenance issues.
The entry doors to the home were tested and inspected by operating the doors, checking the lock and latch,
inspecting the weather-stripping, inspecting any screens present and checking for any physical damage.
The exterior of the windows were visually inspected for signs of cracked glass, damaged screens, caulking around
edges and seams, paint or nish deterioration, and general concerns.
The driveway and exterior concrete surfaces around the home were walked and inspected for surfacedeterioration, trip hazards, poor slope or drainage and any general areas of concern.
The surface grading and drainage was inspected to determine if areas exist that will adversely a ect the home.
General Maintenance Recommendations:
The outside of the home should be routinely checked. Exteriors need regular maintenance to stay sealed against theweather. There can be hidden damage when the exterior is not sealed or is poorly nished, damaged or decayed. Heavy vegetation should be kept trimmed since it can cause or hide damage.

SETTLEMENT AT DOOR
BACK DOOR
Settlement of the back patio or foundation has created a gap under the back door. Repairs are needed to
create a square/level bottom to the door frame. The type of repair depends on the extent and area of
damage, whether at the foundation, patio slab, or door frame. A structural engineer should evaluate this
area during the recommended structural evaluation. A quali ed professional should make repairs.
Note it may be possible to add a modi ed door sweep to keep drafts, pests and water out of the gap, if
additional repairs are not needed or desired.

Foundation Systems Inspection Overview:
The foundation, basement, and crawlspace components were inspected where present and accessible, including thefollowing items:
The visible portions of the foundation wall of the home where not covered by insulation or nishing.
The insulation type and levels present where visible.
The oor structure, wall structure, beams and posts where visible.
Limitations can exist on any foundation inspection since much of the structural components can be hidden or buried,or covered with insulation or a nished area. We do our best to observe all visible areas and look for any sign of
structural concerns. We are not structural engineers, and therefore, if we do see areas of concern we may recommendfurther evaluation by an engineer to assess the area of concern.
FOUNDATIONS, BASEMENTS AND CRAWLSPACES: No immediate structural concerns
Cellar
The structure and foundation of the ceklar were visually inspected where readily accessible for signs of problems orconcerns. The exterior and interior wall coverings were also inspected for indications of settling, movement, or
cracking. No indications of signi cant structural concerns were observed at the time of the inspection.

Recommendations
3.1.1 FOUNDATIONS, BASEMENTS AND CRAWLSPACES
SHALLOW STONE AND CONCRETE FOOTING
CRAWLSPACE
The foundation appears to be a shallow poured concrete footing, and/or dry stacked stone with no mortar
visible. View of the foundation was limited by the low-clearance crawlspace that was not accessible, and
by soils at the exterior that covered the foundation. The home owner has cut out areas of the Living Room
oor, and dug out at the right side exterior, to view more of the foundation and oor framing; I inspected
the foundation from these areas and from within the Cellar. Settlement was noted at the walls in the
home that may indicate structural concerns. This home is 100 years old and the construction style is
somewhat typical for the era in a smaller home.
I recommend evaluation by a structural engineer, to determine overall condition of the foundation and to
recommend repairs or improvement if needed.
Immediate Action/Evaluation Recommendation
3.2.1 COLUMNS OR PIERS
MAKE SHIFT SUPPORTS - OLD HOUSE
CRAWLSPACE
The supporting columns and piers are a variety of types, which re ects the age of the home and the
building methods employed when the supports were installed. Some of the older supports are of
questionable strength and integrity. No damage or movement was noted that indicate structural issues
with the supports, but improvements can be made. Consult with a contractor experienced in structural
repair to older homes, for recommendations and costs to improve or replace supports as needed.

The crawlspace is not insulated. While this installation was typical at
the time of construction, moisture and energy related issues can
occur more in this crawlspace than one that is insulated and
conditioned. It is recommended that you consider converting this to
become a conditioned crawlspace, which will improve energy
e ciency and prevent moisture concerns. To accomplish this,
typically the following steps are taken: Insulation should be installed
at the rim joists and on the foundation walls to drape over the sealed
edges of the vapor barrier. Seal o the crawlspace vents to the
exterior, and consider sealing at the exterior sill plates on the
foundation where accessible to minimize air leakage. You should
also investigate installing or opening a heat supply into the
crawlspace, which will provide drying and air exchange. This will
result in a somewhat conditioned crawlspace that will be less prone
to air leakage and condensation occurring on the underside of the
oor system from cold air entering in the wintertime. Consult with
an insulation specialist to verify these recommendations and to
determine other repair options.
Note that in a low clearance crawlspace, insulation may not be
possible without signi cant e ort and costs. This is noted for your
information.
Recommendation
Contact a quali ed insulation contractor.
3.4.2 BASEMENT-CRAWLSPACE INSULATION
BASEMENT WALLS NOT INSULATED

Insulating the basement foundation walls will improve the home's
energy e ciency. Consult with an insulation professional for costs
and options.

Maintenance Item
3.5.1 CRAWLSPACE / VAPOR BARRIERS
LOW CLEARANCE CRAWLSPACE, NO VAPOR BARRIER
CRAWLSPACE
There is no vapor barrier on the ground in the crawlspace. A vapor barrier provides added protection
from moisture that can enter or be present in the soil. Because the crawlspace area has very little
clearance and accessibility, installation of a vapor barrier would be di cult. No concerns with moisture
were currently evident. I recommend monitoring the grade around the home and ensuring that the
downspouts are kept in the lowered position, to keep moisture out of the crawlspace.
Recommendation
Recommend monitoring.

The following items were Inspected and Observed, with any Recommended Actions noted:
Roo ng-Attic-Ventilation Inspection Overview:
The roof system, gutters-downspouts, attic, and attic ventilation were inspected where components were fullyaccessible.
The roo ng material was inspected for concerns with wear and age, potential hail damage or other damage, andany ashing or roof penetration concerns.
Gutters and downspouts were inspected to ensure proper drainage away from the home and foundation.
Metal ue pipes and chimneys were visually inspected for physical condition and ashing concerns.
The attic was inspected to determine if moisture concerns are present, assess insulation concerns, ventilationadequacy, and review any visible structural issues.
The roof inspection is not intended to predict how long the roof will last or if it will leak, and is not a warranty. All roofsshould be inspected annually in order to detect and address concerns to ensure the roof will perform for the typical life
span. Expect to make minor repairs to any roof.

ROOF COVERINGS: Partial roof snow covered - limited inspection
The roof was walked and inspected where visible, but inspection was limited due to partial snow cover. The roof was infair condition overall, but some concerns were noted in visible areas.
GUTTERS AND DOWNSPOUTS: Hinged gutter extensions
Hinged gutter extensions are noted in the upright position. This will allow water to run down near the foundation
wall. It is recommended that these extensions be left in the down position to ensure proper drainage around the
house.
VENTILATION OF ATTIC: Attic ventilation - no concerns noted
The amount of ventilation in the attic or ceiling space appears adequate. Appropriate ventilation promotes the life
expectancy of the roof covering and reduces heat build up which can lead to energy e ciency concerns. No actions areneeded at this time.

Recommendations
4.1.1 ROOF COVERINGS
SHINGLE DAMAGE / GRANULAR LOSS
There is evidence of shingle damage and wear at edges with granule loss; this can greatly reduce the life
expectancy of the roof. We do not make any determination as to whether or not the damage is from hail or
if an insurance company will replace the roof on an insurance claim. It is recommended that a roo ng
professional further evaluate the condition and repair or replace as needed.

4.2.6 CHIMNEYS, FLASHINGS AND ROOF
PENETRATIONS
MISSING STEP FLASHING
FRONT PORCH
It appears that there is no "step ashing" between the roof and

well as leaks behind the wall. A roo ng or siding professional should
add ashing, or at a minimum seal the meeting of the siding and
shingles with an appropriate caulk sealant (which will be a
temporary repair requiring periodic maintenance).
Recommendation
Contact a quali ed professional.
Repair Recommendation
4.3.1 GUTTERS AND DOWNSPOUTS
DEBRIS IN GUTTERS / DOWNSPOUTS
The gutters and downspouts are full of leaves and debris in areas and need to be cleaned. Regular

4.6.1 ATTIC INSULATION AND VAPOR RETARDERS
DEFICIENT INSULATION
The attic system is not appropriately insulated and signi cant energy loss can be expected. Heat loss will
occur more on this home than one that is properly insulated. The recommended level of insulation is R-
49, which should be 12"-14" of insulation with blown cellulose or 18"-20" of blown berglass. The current
insulation level is well below these recommended levels and is considered de cient. I recommend
consulting with an insulation contractor about installing addition insulation throughout the attic space at
this time.

4.6.2 ATTIC INSULATION AND VAPOR RETARDERS
VERMICULITE
Portions of the insulation in the attic appear to be a product called vermiculite, which was known to
contain asbestos. Testing of this material would be required, to con rm this assessment. Typical
recommendations are to leave the insulation alone and do not disturb the product, to prevent airborne
dust. If any remodel activity is to be done, which would involve disturbing the insulation, then proper

MAIN WATER SHUT-OFF LOCATION: Inspected - gate valve
Cellar
The main water shut-o was inspected, with no visible concerns noted. This can be used to turn all of the water o to
the home in the event of a plumbing emergency or when plumbing repairs are needed.
Currently, the valve is a knob operated "gate" type valve. These types of valves can be prone to stripping or leaking
when operated. Consider having a plumber install a lever operated ball valve, which is less prone to leaking whenoperated.
Note: we do not operate shut o valves - the inspection is a visual review for leaks.
WATER PRESSURE MEASUREMENT: Unable to test water pressure
I was not able to test water pressure, as the water was o . Water pressure is recommended to remain in the range of
35-80psi. Lower water pressure may show as low ow in the home, and higher pressure may put undue stress on ttings resulting in leaks.
Recommendations
5.4.1 WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
WATER NOT ON
The water was not on for inspection, and we were unable to determine the condition of faucets, xtures,

7.1.1 HEATING EQUIPMENT
OLD GAS FLOOR FURNACE
KITCHEN
The primary heating system appears to be an in- oor furnace. The furnace was not operable and appears
to be very old and partially dismantled. There was no ue pipe to exhaust gas outside the home, a non-
vented gas furnace would be a safety hazard for modern use.
The location of the furnace would create heat (likely about 120-150 degrees F) directly at the large oor
grate, which would be a hazard particularly for pets and young/small children.
This installation is somewhat typical for a home of this age (over 100 years old), but is not suitable for
modern use. A new heating system would need to be installed, at which time it would be important to
provide heat to all rooms in the home. Consult with a Heating and Cooling professional for options and
costs to provide heat to this home. Some possible options may include a forced air furnace with ducting in
the attic, electric baseboard heat, or split-system heat pump with distribution heads in several areas.

A limited inspection showed that the framed walls do not appear to be insulated, and would bene t from
adding blown in insulation. This can be accomplished by having an insulation contractor blow in
insulation into the wall cavities, either by drilling access holes in the outside wall siding or inside plaster
or drywall. It is recommended that you consult with an insulation company to verify, and to understand
the process and associated costs.
Note that vermiculite insulation was seen in the attic, and is also found in some areas of the home.
Vermiculite may have been used as wall insulation, but also may have fallen through cavities in framing
into the walls in areas. This material may contain asbestos, sampling is needed prior to any re-insulating
or remodeling as a safety item. An Environmental Contractor should evaluate and sample, an Insulation
Contractor can then advise on adding insulation.

LEAD-BASED PAINT INSPECTION REPORT
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of Boulder Environmental, Inc.’s lead-based paint
inspection of the single-family residence located at 3132 8th Street, Boulder, Colorado.
The inspection was performed on October 31, 2024 in general accordance with the
EPA's Regulations on Residential Property Renovation at 40 CFR 745.80, Subpart E and
the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines for lead
based paint inspections. Any painted surfaces excluded in this study must be presumed
to be lead regulated.
2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The purpose of this inspection is to identify and assess painted components at the subject
property which will be subject to demolition/renovation activities and to determine the
level of lead hazard control needed at the property. The intent of this study was to
identify the presence of lead-based paint above specified regulatory action levels. If lead-
based paint were found, the inspection would identify the architectural components and
their respective lead concentrations in such a manner that this report could be used as a
basis for subsequent abatement activity.
3.0 QUALIFICATIONS
Derek D’Avignon of Boulder Environmental, Inc. performed the inspection at the
structure using a Niton XFB-3 (XRF) spectrum analyzer instrument. Derek D’Avignon
has attended the manufacturer’s radiation safety course for operation and handling of the
instrument and completed an EPA sponsored curriculum of Lead Inspector Training.
Boulder Environmental, Inc. is a state of Colorado Lead Evaluation Firm #21158 and
Derek D’Avignon is currently State of Colorado certified as a Lead Based Paint Inspector
#10147.
4.0 METHOD OF TESTING
The method employed for testing painted surfaces was with an X-ray fluorescence (XRF)
analyzer. The Niton XFB-3 (XRF) spectrum analyzer, serial # 26105 was re-sourced in
November 2019. The instrument was calibrated to the manufacturer's specifications and
was also periodically verified against known lead samples produced by the National
Institute of Standards and Testing (NIST) Standard Reference Material (SRM) 2579 lead
film (1.0mg/cm2).
Attachment A - Application Materials
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 144 of 200
5.0 TESTING PROTOCOL
Testing was conducted in accordance with 40 CFR Part 745 Lead; Renovation, Repair,
and Painting Program; Lead Hazard Information Pamphlet; Notice of Availability; Final
Rule. XRF readings were taken on representative painted surfaces on each building
component in each room equivalent. HUD defines lead-based paint as lead equal to or
greater than 1.0 mg/cm2. All XRF readings below the regulatory definition are considered
negative and all readings at and above this level are considered positive.

7.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous
lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint, which can be harmful to adults and
children.
To protect against this risk, on April 22, 2008, EPA issued a rule requiring the use of
lead-safe practices and other actions aimed at preventing lead poisoning. Under the rule,
beginning April 22, 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects
Attachment A - Application Materials
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 147 of 200
that disturb lead-based paint in homes, childcare facilities, and schools built before 1978
must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.
EPA requires that firms performing renovation, repair, and painting projects that disturb
lead-based paint in pre-1978 homes, childcare facilities and schools be certified by EPA
and that they use certified renovators who are trained by EPA-approved training
providers to follow lead-safe work practices. Individuals can become certified renovators
by taking an eight-hour training course from an EPA-approved training provider.
Federal law requires contractors that are hired to perform renovation, repair, and painting
projects in homes, childcare facilities, and schools built before 1978 that disturb painted
surfaces to be certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.
The work practices the contractor must follow include these three simple procedures,
described below:
1. Contain the work area. The area must be contained so that dust and debris do not
escape from that area. Warning signs must be put up and plastic or other impermeable
material and tape must be used as appropriate to:
• Cover the floors and any furniture that cannot be moved.
• Seal off doors and heating and cooling system vents.
These will help prevent dust or debris from getting outside the work area.
2. Avoid renovation methods that generate large amounts of lead-contaminated
dust. Some methods generate so much lead-contaminated dust that their use is prohibited.
They are:
• Open flame burning or torching.
• Sanding, grinding, planing, needle gunning, or blasting with power tools and equipment
not equipped with a shroud and HEPA vacuum attachment.
• Using a heat gun at temperatures greater than 1100°F.
There is no way to eliminate dust, but some renovation methods make less dust than
others. Contractors may choose to use various methods to minimize dust generation,
including using water to mist areas before sanding or scraping; scoring paint before
separating components; and prying and pulling apart components instead of breaking
them.
3. Clean up thoroughly. The work area should be cleaned up daily to keep it as clean as
possible. When all the work is done, the area must be cleaned up using special cleaning
methods before taking down any plastic that isolates the work area from the rest of the
home. The special cleaning methods should include:
• Using a HEPA vacuum to clean up dust and debris on all surfaces, followed by
• Wet wiping and wet mopping with plenty of rinse water.
Attachment A - Application Materials
Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 148 of 200
When the final cleaning is done, look around. There should be no dust, paint chips, or
debris in the work area. If you see any dust, paint chips, or debris, the area must be re-
cleaned.

RENOVATING, REPAIRING, OR PAINTING?• Is your home, your building, or the child care facility or school your children attend being renovated, repaired, or painted?• Was your home, your building, or the child care facility or school where your children under six years of age attend built before 1978? If the answer to these questions is YES, there are a few important things you need to know about lead-based paint.This pamphlet provides basic facts about lead and information about lead safety when work is being done in your home, your building or the child care facility or school your children attend.The Facts About Lead• Lead can affect children’s brains and developing nervous systems, causing reduced IQ, learning disabilities, and behavioral problems. Lead is also harmful to adults. • Lead in dust is the most common way people are exposed to lead. People can also get lead in their bodies from lead in soil or paint chips. Lead dust is often invisible.• Lead-based paint was used in more than 38 million homes until it was banned for residential use in 1978.• Projects that disturb painted surfaces can create dust and endanger you and your family. Don’t let this happen to you. Follow the practices described in this pamphlet to protect you and your family.23LEAD AND YOUR HEALTHLead is especially dangerous to children under six years of age. Lead can affect children’s brains and developing nervous systems, causing:• Reduced IQ and learning disabilities.• Behavior problems.Even children who appear healthy can have dangerous levels of lead in their bodies.Lead is also harmful to adults. In adults, low levels of lead can pose many dangers, including:• High blood pressure and hypertension.• Pregnant women exposed to lead can transfer lead to their fetuses. Lead gets into the body when it is swallowed or inhaled.• People, especially children, can swallow lead dust as they eat, play, and do other normal hand-to-mouth activities.• People may also breathe in lead dust or fumes if they disturb lead-based paint. People who sand, scrape, burn, brush or blast or otherwise disturb lead-based paint risk unsafe exposure to lead.What should I do if I am concerned about my family’s exposure to lead? • Call your local health department for advice on reducing and eliminating exposures to lead inside and outside your home, child care facility or school. • Always use lead-safe work practices when renovation or repair will disturb painted surfaces. • A blood test is the only way to find out if you or a family member already has lead poisoning. Call your doctor or local health department to arrange for a blood test.For more information about the health effects of exposure to lead, visit the EPA lead website at www.epa.gov/lead/pubs/leadinfo.htm or call 1-800-424-LEAD (5323).There are other things you can do to protect your family every day.• Regularly clean floors, window sills, and other surfaces.• Wash children’s hands, bottles, pacifiers, and toys often.• Make sure children eat a healthy, nutritious diet consistent with the USDA's dietary guidelines, that helps protect children from the effects of lead.• Wipe off shoes before entering house.Attachment A - Application MaterialsItem 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25Page 157 of 200
4WHERE DOES THE LEAD COME FROM?Dust is the main problem. The most common way to get lead in the body is from dust. Lead dust comes from deteriorating lead-based paint and lead-contaminated soil that gets tracked into your home. This dust may accumulate to unsafe levels. Then, normal hand to-mouth activities, like playing and eating (especially in young children), move that dust from surfaces like floors and window sills into the body. Home renovation creates dust.Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips. Proper work practices protect you from the dust. The key to protecting yourself and your family during a renovation, repair or painting job is to use lead-safe work practices such as containing dust inside the work area, using dust-minimizing work methods, and conducting a careful cleanup, as described in this pamphlet.Other sources of lead. Remember, lead can also come from outside soil, your water, or household items (such as lead-glazed pottery and lead crystal). Contact the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323) for more information on these sources.510 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100Between1940 – 1960Between1960 – 1978Before 194024%69%87%Percentage of Homes Likely to Contain LeadAge of HomesCHECKING YOUR HOME FOR LEADBASED PAINTOlder homes, child care facilities, and schools are more likely to contain lead-based paint. Homes may be single-family homes or apartments. They may be private, government-assisted, or public housing. Schools are preschools and kindergarten classrooms. They may be urban, suburban, or rural.You have the following options:You may decide to assume your home, child care facility, or school contains lead. Especially in older homes and buildings, you may simply want to assume lead-based paint is present and follow the lead-safe work practices described in this brochure during the renovation, repair, or painting job.You can hire a certified professional to check for lead-based paint. These professionals are certified risk assessors or inspectors, and can determine if your home has lead or lead hazards. • A certified inspector or risk assessor can conduct an inspection telling you whether your home, or a portion of your home, has lead-based paint and where it is located. This will tell you the areas in your home where lead-safe work practices are needed. • A certified risk assessor can conduct a risk assessment telling you if your home currently has any lead hazards from lead in paint, dust, or soil. The risk assessor can also tell you what actions to take to address any hazards.• For help finding a certified risk assessor or inspector, call the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323).You may also have a certified renovator test the surfaces or components being disturbed for lead using a lead test kit. Test kits must be EPA-recognized and are available at hardware stores. They include detailed instructions for their use.Attachment A - Application MaterialsItem 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25Page 158 of 200
6FOR PROPERTY OWNERSYou have the ultimate responsibility for the safety of your family, tenants, or children in your care. This means properly preparing for the renovation and keeping persons out of the work area (see p. 8). It also means ensuring the contractor uses lead-safe work practices.Federal law requires that contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb painted surfaces in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 be certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.Make sure your contractor is certified, and can explain clearly the details of the job and how the contractor will minimize lead hazards during the work.• You can verify that a contractor is certified by checking EPA’s website at epa.gov/getleadsafe or by calling the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323). You can also ask to see a copy of the contractor’s firm certification.• Ask if the contractor is trained to perform lead-safe work practices and to see a copy of their training certificate.• Ask them what lead-safe methods they will use to set up and perform the job in your home, child care facility or school.• Ask for references from at least three recent jobs involving homes built before 1978, and speak to each personally.Always make sure the contract is clear about how the work will be set up, performed, and cleaned.• Share the results of any previous lead tests with the contractor.• You should specify in the contract that they follow the work practices described on pages 9 and 10 of this brochure. • The contract should specify which parts of your home are part of the work area and specify which lead-safe work practices will be used in those areas. Remember, your contractor should confine dust and debris to the work area and should minimize spreading that dust to other areas of the home. • The contract should also specify that the contractor will clean the work area, verify that it was cleaned adequately, and re-clean it if necessary.If you think a worker is not doing what he is supposed to do or is doing something that is unsafe, you should:• Direct the contractor to comply with regulatory and contract requirements.• Call your local health or building department, or• Call EPA's hotline 1-800-424-LEAD (5323).If your property receives housing assistance from HUD (or a state or local agency that uses HUD funds), you must follow the requirements of HUD’s Lead-Safe Housing Rule and the ones described in this pamphlet.7FOR TENANTS AND FAMILIES OF CHILDREN UNDER SIX YEARS OF AGE IN CHILD CARE FACILITIES AND SCHOOLSYou play an important role ensuring the ultimate safety of your family. This means properly preparing for the renovation and staying out of the work area (see p. 8).Federal law requires that contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb painted surfaces in homes built before 1978 and in child care facilities and schools built before 1978, that a child under six years of age visits regularly, to be certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.The law requires anyone hired to renovate, repair, or do painting preparation work on a property built before 1978 to follow the steps described on pages 9 and 10 unless the area where the work will be done contains no lead-based paint.If you think a worker is not doing what he is supposed to do or is doing something that is unsafe, you should:• Contact your landlord.• Call your local health or building department, or • Call EPA's hotline 1-800-424-LEAD (5323).If you are concerned about lead hazards left behind after the job is over, you can check the work yourself (see page 10).Attachment A - Application MaterialsItem 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25Page 159 of 200
8PREPARING FOR A RENOVATIONThe work areas should not be accessible to occupants while the work occurs. The rooms or areas where work is being done may need to be blocked off or sealed with plastic sheeting to contain any dust that is generated. Therefore, the contained area may not be available to you until the work in that room or area is complete, cleaned thoroughly, and the containment has been removed. Because you may not have access to some areas during the renovation, you should plan accordingly.You may need:• Alternative bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen arrangements if work is occurring in those areas of your home.• A safe place for pets because they too can be poisoned by lead and can track lead dust into other areas of the home.• A separate pathway for the contractor from the work area to the outside in order to bring materials in and out of the home. Ideally, it should not be through the same entrance that your family uses.• A place to store your furniture. All furniture and belongings may have to be moved from the work area while the work is being done. Items that can’t be moved, such as cabinets, should be wrapped in plastic.• To turn off forced-air heating and air conditioning systems while the work is being done. This prevents dust from spreading through vents from the work area to the rest of your home. Consider how this may affect your living arrangements.You may even want to move out of your home temporarily while all or part of the work is being done.Child care facilities and schools may want to consider alternative accommodations for children and access to necessary facilities.9DURING THE WORKFederal law requires contractors that are hired to perform renovation, repair and painting projects in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 that disturb painted surfaces to be certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.The work practices the contractor must follow include these three simple procedures, described below:1. Contain the work area. The area must be contained so that dust and debris do not escape from that area. Warning signs must be put up and plastic or other impermeable material and tape must be used as appropriate to: • Cover the floors and any furniture that cannot be moved. • Seal off doors and heating and cooling system vents.These will help prevent dust or debris from getting outside the work area.2. Avoid renovation methods that generate large amounts of lead-contaminated dust. Some methods generate so much lead-contaminated dust that their use is prohibited. They are: • Open flame burning or torching. • Sanding, grinding, planing, needle gunning, or blasting with power tools and equipment not equipped with a shroud and HEPA vacuum attachment. • Using a heat gun at temperatures greater than 1100°F.There is no way to eliminate dust, but some renovation methods make less dust than others. Contractors may choose to use various methods to minimize dust generation, including using water to mist areas before sanding or scraping; scoring paint before separating components; and prying and pulling apart components instead of breaking them. 3. Clean up thoroughly. The work area should be cleaned up daily to keep it as clean as possible. When all the work is done, the area must be cleaned up using special cleaning methods before taking down any plastic that isolates the work area from the rest of the home. The special cleaning methods should include: • Using a HEPA vacuum to clean up dust and debris on all surfaces, followed by • Wet wiping and wet mopping with plenty of rinse water.When the final cleaning is done, look around. There should be no dust, paint chips, or debris in the work area. If you see any dust, paint chips, or debris, the area must be re-cleaned.Attachment A - Application MaterialsItem 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25Page 160 of 200
10FOR PROPERTY OWNERS: AFTER THE WORK IS DONEWhen all the work is finished, you will want to know if your home, child care facility, or school has been cleaned up properly. Here are some ways to check.Ask about your contractor’s final cleanup check. Remember, lead dust is often invisible to the naked eye. It may still be present even if you cannot see it. The contractor must use disposable cleaning cloths to wipe the floor of the work area and compare them to a cleaning verification card to determine if the work area was adequately cleaned.To order a cleaning verification card and detailed instructions visit the EPA lead website at www.epa.gov/lead or contact the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323) or visit their website at www.epa.gov/lead/nlic.htm.You also may choose to have a lead-dust test. Lead-dust tests are wipe samples sent to a laboratory for analysis.• You should specify in your contract that a lead-dust test will be done. In this case, make it clear who will do the testing.• Testing should be done by a lead professional.If you choose to do the testing, some EPA-recognized lead laboratories will send you a kit that allows you to collect samples and send them back to the lab for analysis.Contact the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323) for lists of qualified professionals and EPA-recognized lead labs.If your home, child care facility, or school fails the dust test, the area should be re-cleaned and tested again.Where the project is done by contract, it is a good idea to specify in the contract that the contractor is responsible for re-cleaning if the home, child care facility, or school fails the test.11You may need additional information on how to protect yourself and your children while a job is going on in your home, your building, or child care facility. The National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (5323) or www.epa.gov/lead/nlic.htm can tell you how to contact your state, local, and/or tribal programs or get general information about lead poisoning prevention.• State and tribal lead poisoning prevention or environmental protection programs can provide information about lead regulations and potential sources of financial aid for reducing lead hazards. If your state or local government has requirements more stringent than those described in this pamphlet, you must follow those requirements.• Local building code officials can tell you the regulations that apply to the renovation work that you are planning.• State, county, and local health departments can provide information about local programs, including assistance for lead-poisoned children and advice on ways to get your home checked for lead.The National Lead Information Center can also provide a variety of resource materials, including the following guides to lead-safe work practices.

ASBESTOS SURVEY AND BULK SAMPLING REPORT
FOR BUILDING DEMOLITION OF
3132 8th Street, Boulder, Colorado
Introduction:
On October 30, 2024, Boulder Environmental Inc.’s Building Inspector, Derek
D’Avignon, conducted an asbestos-containing materials survey. The purpose of the
survey was to identify asbestos containing materials (ACM) and materials presumed to
contain asbestos (PACM) as defined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for
the purposes of eventual building demolition.
Sampling:
During the sampling process, suspect ACM was separated into three EPA categories.
These categories are Surfacing (S) ACM, Thermal System Insulation (TSI) ACM, and
Miscellaneous (M) ACM. Surfacing ACM includes all ACM that is sprayed, troweled, or
otherwise applied to a surface. Thermal System Insulation includes all materials used to
prevent heat loss or gain or water condensation on mechanical systems. Examples of TSI
are pipe coverings, boiler insulation, duct wrap, and mud packed fitting cement. These
applications are most used in fireproofing, decorative and acoustical applications.
Miscellaneous materials include all ACM not listed in the thermal system insulation or
surfacing categories, such as linoleum, vinyl asbestos flooring, floor tile and ceiling tile.
Boulder Environmental, Inc. followed EPA recommended sampling guidelines for
identification of asbestos in bulk matrices. A set of two (2), three (3), five (5), or seven
(7) samples were collected for each material type and analyzed by Polarized Light
Microscopy (PLM). Each sample set was systematically analyzed. Upon determination
that a sample in a set contained asbestos, analysis of the remaining samples in the set was
discontinued. If no asbestos was detected during the analyses, the suspect material was
determined to be negative for asbestos content.
Suspect materials are assigned numerical values based on an evaluation of the building
materials condition at the time of the inspection. The numbers assigned are: 1. Damaged
or significantly damaged thermal system insulation ACM. 2. Damaged friable surfacing
ACM. 3. Significantly damaged friable surfacing ACM. 4. Damaged or significantly
damaged friable miscellaneous ACM. 5. ACM with potential for damage. 6. ACM with
potential for significant damage. 7. Any remaining friable ACM or friable suspected
ACM.

Discussion:
Sample analyses results are reported in percentages of asbestos and non-asbestos
components. The EPA defines any material that contains greater than one percent (1%)
asbestos, utilizing PLM, as being an asbestos containing material. Materials that are
identified as “none detected” are specified as not containing asbestos.
Asbestos removal permit or notification requirements:
When the quantity of ACBM to be removed exceeds “> 260 LF or 160 SF or a 55-
gallon drum”, a permit or notification and a ten-working day waiting period are required
before a permit is valid. These circumstances also require a notification fee of $80 for a
non-friable asbestos removal or a permit fee of $400 for a friable asbestos removal. These
trigger levels apply to all SFRD’s which are intended to be demolished.
Obtaining a State Demolition Permit:
Prior to building demolition/relocation/burning, Colorado requires a state issued
demolition permit. The building, or portion thereof, must be free of regulated asbestos
containing materials before application for the demolition permit.
There is a 10 working-day advance notification requirement for permit applications. Day
1 is the 1st business day following the postmark or hand-delivery date. (Working Day
means Monday through Friday and includes holidays that falls on any of the days
Monday through Friday.)
An inspector accredited by the EPA and CDPHE must sign a statement (in blue ink)
certifying that the building is eligible for demolition to begin the demolition permit
application process.
If a demolition follows a permitted or noticed asbestos abatement project within 10
business days of the completion of the abatement project, the 10 working-day advance
notification requirement will be waived.
Upon request, (as it typically serves your project timeline), BEI will forward the required
original application, signed in blue ink, directly to the demolition contractor if you have
selected one. This way you are not deemed a courier and do not incur further
inconvenience prior to beginning the ten working days after CDPHE receives the fee and
application necessary to obtain a demolition permit.

Conclusion:
Prior to application for building demolition, Boulder Environmental Inc. must verify the
abatement or removal of the following asbestos containing materials:
• ~ 130 square feet of sheet flooring #1 (terrazzo patterned) in the kitchen (floor
and sink countertop)
Workers disturbing asbestos containing materials must be OSHA/EPA trained and
asbestos containing materials must be disposed of in a landfill approved by the EPA to
receive asbestos waste.
The following asbestos containing materials may remain in the building if they remain
non-friable during conventional building demolition:
• ~ 20 square feet of window caulking #1 on the house windows
• ~ 15 square feet of floor tiles and associated mastic associated with sheet flooring
#2 in the bathroom (floor)
Non-friable asbestos containing materials as noted may remain in a building during
demolition. Occupational Safety and Health Administration guidelines should be
followed while disturbing or handling these materials. State of Colorado licenses and
certifications for asbestos handling are not required so long as materials remain non-
friable.
However, we recommend having the floor tiles abated by a licensed asbestos remover
prior to applying for demolition because fewer and fewer demolition contractors are
being permitted to perform conventional demolition with asbestos containing floor tiles
in place.
Workers disturbing asbestos containing materials must be OSHA/EPA trained and
asbestos containing materials must be disposed of in a landfill approved by the EPA to
receive asbestos waste.
The following materials were determined to contain one percent asbestos or less:
• ~ 900 square feet of smooth plaster on walls and ceilings in the kitchen,
bathroom, and mud room
• ~ 8 square feet of window glazing on the shop windows
Workers disturbing materials that contain 1% asbestos or less must be OSHA trained and
follow OSHA handling guidelines while handling and disposing of such materials.
The following materials were determined not to be asbestos containing:
• ~ 600 square feet of stomp textured plaster on walls in the living room and dining
room
• ~ 250 square feet of swirl textured plaster on ceilings in the living room and
dining room

• ~ 550 square feet of bumpy plaster in the west bedroom (walls and ceiling)
• ~ 160 square feet of 1’x1’ ceiling tiles in the west bedroom (ceiling)
• ~ 500 square feet of rough plaster in the east bedroom (walls and ceiling and
closet)
• ~ 110 square feet of tile adhesive on walls in the bathroom
• ~ 240 square feet of marbled sheet flooring #3 in the mud room (floor) and
kitchen (floor and west backsplash)
• ~ 40 square feet of drywall and joint compound wall systems #1 in the stairwell
(walls and ceiling)
• ~ 1,800 square feet of stone mortar on the living room fireplace and exterior walls
of the house and garage
• ~ 1,100 square feet of roofing shingles on the house roof
• ~ 300 square feet of drywall #2 in eh west shop (north, east, and west walls)
• ~ 275 square feet fiberboard panel ceilings in the east and west shops (and south
wall)
• ~ 400 square feet of roofing shingles #2 and felt on the garage roof
• ~ 8 square feet of window caulking #2 on the shop windows

Moisture and Mold Assessment
3132 8th Street, Boulder, Colorado
Introduction:
On October 30, 2024, Boulder Environmental Inc.’s Chris Maron conducted a mold
assessment and testing of the garage workshop at 3132 8th Street, Boulder, Colorado.
Sampling:
Two samples were collected at the subject property. Air-o-cell cassettes and sampling
pump calibrated to 15 liters per minute were used to collect air samples. All ambient air
samples were collected for 5 minutes. An outdoor ambient air sample was collected to
establish background levels of mold spores naturally occurring in the area. Indoor
ambient air samples were collected in the garage workshop.
All samples were delivered to Eurofins Scientific Inc, 4955 Yarrow St, Suite 100,
Arvada, CO 80002 for analysis.
Results:
Airborne spore concentrations in the workshop were notably higher than for
Aspergillus/Penicillium.
Many people breathe in aspergillus spores every day with no ill effect. However,
exposure to large amounts of aspergillus can lead to numerous health problems, some of
which are quite serious, especially in people with weakened immune systems. Guidelines
for Interpretation: No accepted quantitative regulatory standards currently exist by which
to assess the health risks related to mold and bacterial exposure. Molds and bacteria have
been associated with a variety of health effects and sensitivity varies from person to
person. Several organizations, including: the American Conference of Government
Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH); the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA);
the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA); the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA); the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), as well as the California
Department of Health Services (CADHS), have all published guidelines for assessment
and interpretation of mold resulting from water intrusion in buildings.

Item 5B - 3132 8th St Memo 01.08.25 Page 190 of 200
Discussion:
Elevated mold spore concentrations in both the indoor and outdoor environment are
known to cause allergy symptoms and occasionally responsible for respiratory illness in
immuno-compromised individuals. Elevated mold spore concentrations in the indoor
environment can be from outdoor infiltration; or from indoor growth sources when
elevated surface moisture and humidity exist for extended periods of time.
Conditions under which indoor mold growth can occur include:
• Historical flooding without proper cleanup
• Moisture intrusion occurring through sub-flooring, walls, windows, or roofs
• Plumbing, water line leak, toilet overflows or sewer backups
• Moisture condensation within HVAC systems
• Persistent elevated relative humidity above 70%, and inadequate housekeeping
Mold and fungi require three basic criteria to colonize the inside of a building including:
• A source of moisture
• A food source
• Lack of surface disturbance and/or air movement
Indoor food sources for mold can be any organic material provided by a flood or sewer
backup; or cellulosic materials present in the building such as carpet backing, linoleum
backing, drywall paper, ceiling panels, or the buildup of plant and/or skin cell fragments
or debris on inorganic surfaces. Skin cell fragments are a significant food and colonizing
source in office buildings and private homes where a high occupancy exists, or adequate
housekeeping is not performed.
Molds colonize most readily where air disturbance is minimal. For this reason, mold
colonization occurs most frequently in closed or concealed spaces such as closets,
storerooms, basements, refrigeration units, or on the back or underside surface of
furniture.

Conclusion:
Further investigation is recommended to identify and mitigate the cultivation of
mold spores in the workshop of the garage.
The laboratory reports supporting these findings above are attached. Please contact

Background
Debris
Rating
Description Interpretation
0 No Particles Detected
No particles were observed on slide. The
absence of particulates could indicate
improper sampling, as most air samples
typically contain some particulate
1 Minimal non-microbial debris
present.Reported values are not affected by debris
2
Up to 25% of the slide
occluded with particulate
debris
Particulate debris could mask the presence
of spores but do not provide significant
interference with the analyses
3
26 to 50% of the slide
occluded with particulate
debris
Particulate debris could mask the presence
of spores and begin to interfere with the
analytical count. As a result actual values
could be somewhat higher than reported.
4
51 to 90% of the slide
occluded with particulate
debris
Particulate debris are heavy and would
mask the presence of some fungal spores if
present. As a result, the count could be
higher than reported.
CBR Cannot Be Read
Sample could not be read due to excessive
debris. Spores observed on the perimeter
of debris are reported as present or
abundant. The sample should be collected
at shorter time interval or other measures
taken to reduce the collection of non-
microbial debris.

ANALYTICAL INFORMATION
Spore traps are a sampling devices that collect aeroallergens such as pollens, mold and fungal
spores, fibers, dander, insect components and other air-borne contaminates. Samples are
analyzed using light microscopy at 600X magnification with the entire sample trace or a percentage
of the trace is counted. The results include both viable and non-viable fungal spores. This
technique does not allow for the differentiation between Aspergillus and Penicillium spores. Small
(1-3um) spherical fungal spores that cannot be identified and may included Aspergillus, Penicillium
and Paecilomyces and others. Sample traces with greater than 500 spores per slide are difficult to
count accurately due to overcrowding and should be considered estimations. Excessive non-
microbial particulate debris can mask the presence of fungal spores, thereby reducing counting
accuracies. All samples are graded with the following debris scale for data qualification.
