The required fire flow for the site is 1000 gpm with 20 psi residual pressure as per Steve Miller of the Poudre Valley Fire Authority. The 262 LF of 6 inch pipe will create a head loss of 13.3 ft (5.76 psi) between the main and the hydrant at 1000 gpm. Given the residual pressure in the main of 50 psi minimum under fireflow conditions (per Webb Jones of the City) the residual pressure at the hydrant will be approximately 44 psi minimum. This residual pressure is well within the requirements of the Fire Authority. Should you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 Attention Mike Herzig P.E. RE: Fort Collins Club Office Park P.U.D. Parking Setback Variance Dear Mike: Project No.: 489.4 A variance to the Design Criteria and Standards for Streets, City of Fort Collins, 1986, is hereby requested. It is requested that the standard 50 foot parking setback be reduced to 40 feet for the access onto Prospect Road. The standard setback is identified in Table 5 for ADT less than 750. The desired 40 foot setback, shown on the approved preliminary siteplan, will allow more parking spaces with better access to the proposed medical offices. Stacking distance sufficient for 2 cars will be provided by the proposed setback before the interior stalls will be blocked. With the light traffic generated by the proposed development (ADT of 220) this stacking length will be adequate. Consequently, there will be no health, safety, or welfare problems created by the proposed variance. Sincerely, ENGINEERING Steve Kraush cc: Vaught -Frye Architects Micheal S.
