Dear Sherri,
This is regarding the Utility Plans for Fox Hill P.U.D., Second Filing.
Luther Lane has been paved as a requirement for Fox Hills P.U.D., First Filing. The slope
of Luther Lane is 2.00% for 34.00 feet from the centerline of Red Fox Road and then begins a
200 foot vertical curve. The plans were approved by the Latimer County Department of Public
Works. As you noted the City of Fort Collins requires a maximum slope of 2.00% for 50.00 feet
from the right of way of the cross street. The difference in the two elevations at station 0+77
would be 0.26 feet.
Due to the fact the pavement is existing, I am requesting a variance to the 50.00 foot
requirement on behalf of the developers of Fox Hills P.U.D.
Thank you for your consideration of this request. As shown on the plans, I adhered to
your requirement on the cul de sacs which have not be constructed.
Sincerely,
Richard A. Rutherford, P. 9. & L.S.

Dear Dick,
In considering your variance request for varying the requirement that a slope of 2.0% (or less) be
provided for 50 on Luther Lane from the ROW of Red Fox Road for FOX HILLS PUD, Second
Filing, not enough information has been provided. You have indicated that the slope from the
center of Red Fox Road meets the 2.0% for 34 feet, most of that is the ROW of Red Fox Road
and does not apply to the standard requirement. You have not indicated what the maximum slope
is in that 50 feet, nor indicated in any way that it provides an adequate place for vehicles to stop
and start at the intersection or what kind and\or amount of traffic will be on this road. Some sort
of justification is needed to show that the intersection can function safely as designed (and built).
Once additional information is received the variance request will be farther evaluated. If you have
any questions, please call.
Sincerely,
Sheri L. Wamhoff
