Fort Cullim, Colormlo 80522 Mr. Glen Johnson 3701 Gullway Ft. Collins, Colorado Dear Mr. Johnson: Ph(W) 4P l 4220 Lxt. 723 This letter of understanding is in response to our meeting on Thursday, October 14, 1.982 regarding future planning for the Larimer #2 Canal Extension within the Superblock area north of Harmony Road. At such time as the future Special Improvement District for John F. Kennedy Parkway is formed, the property owners through their engineer shall be required to incorporate an adequate canal section, enlarged if necessary, including all street crossings and a realignment of the existing canal into the scope of the work for the SID. The capacty of the realigned canal and all street crossings shall be sufficient to carry anticipated surface water runoff along with any irrigation water that may be routed through the canal in the future. For definition purposes the Larimer County Canal #2 Extension is defined as commencing from the Warren Lake inlet ditch to Mail Creek. As indicated by Pat Mestas, the engineer retained by the property owners, the prop-crty owners are aware of this requirement, and will include any additional work required in the project to accomplish this purpose. Any future improvements to the Larimer County Canal #2 Extension and storm drainage to enter into the ditch will be required to have the approval of the Board of Directors of Larimer County Canal #2 before City approval for construction within the Superblock. By your agreement with the above policy, please sign in the space provided and return. Sinceroly, r:- Robert w.

Box 580 Ft. Collins, Colorado 80522 Re: 524 Spring Canyon Court; Ft. Collins, Colorado Lot 7, The Landings Fifth Filing Dear Glen, As you know, the drainage improvements located on Lot 7 of the Landings Fifth Filing, have been modified by the home owner after obtaining the appropriate approvals for those modifications. The side lot drainage Swale has been constructed in substantial conformance with the swale detail provided on the Grading and Drainage Plan for the Landings Fifth Filing. The channel has been constructed with exposed cobbles instead of being sodded or seeded. The detention pond, which was proposed on the rear portion of this lot, has been filled in and abandoned. Attached is a blueprint of the Landings Fifth Filing Grading Plan which has an approval signature from John Strachan, President of the Latimer County Canal No. 2 which indicates his approval of this modification. The approval statement reads: "As approved by signature below, it is recognized, the storm water previously detained in ponds A & B, will now flow directly into Latimer County Canal # 2, without detention" . The same print has your approval signature in the revision block for the September 15, 1992 detention pond elimination revision. Your approval signature is dated 09/18/92. All drainage facilities are functioning properly. The general intent of the drainage design for the Landings Fifth Filing has been met. Please consider this letter as a final certification of the drainage improvements for this portion of the Landings Fifth Filing.

We recommend that storm water from the Land- ings 5th Filing be discharged into irrigation canals which surround the project. The majority of the projects storm water will discharge into the Warren Lake inlet canal. A small portion will be discharged into Larimer canal No. 2. By routing the runoff directly into these canals we will in effect reduce the peak flows from adjacent drainage basins. The canals and irrigation reservoir do not con- tribute to basin wide storm water flows. The proposed discharge into the irrigation canals is in agreement with ditch company owners. However, at this date we do not have a signed agreement with the owners as they were out of town and would not be available prior to our submittal. As quickly as possible we will submit letters of approval from the irrigation company to you. If you have any questions or comments regarding this request for variance, please contact our office.

Design changes were a result of review by various City departments. We feel that we have addressed the comments and are in accordance with the City of Fort Collins design criteria. It is required by the Storm Drainage Department to obtain written approval from any irrigation company which will accept storm water runoff into their systems. We have been in contact with Glen Johnson of the Larimer No. 2 canal and B.G. Jackson of the Warren Lake Irrigation Company and they have given the conditional approval of the improvement plans. However, they are unavailable at the time of this submission to finalize written agreements. These agreements should be completed within the next week. When the agreements are obtained, we will forward copies to you and also have the approval signed on the cover sheet of our drawings. Mr. Johnson has expressed that he does not want any drainage in the Spring Canyon lateral as he feels that it will be abandoned as development occurs. This also justifies our use of a C.M.P. culvert under Spring Canyon Court, as it would be uneconomical to provide a concrete box culvert should the ditch be abandoned in the near future. We understand that lot owners must contribute $129.49/unit to the Warren Lake interceptor. This cost will be realized in the developer's estimated develop- ment costs. -- 1ad0 112 W. 11 TH AVE. 6412 S. COLLEGE AVE.

We apologize for the manner in which the plans were intially submitted. We were negligent in preparing drawings consistent with the City of Fort Collins design standards.

Brian Zick Taranto, Stanton a Tagge 6412 S. College Avenue Fort Collins, CO 50525 Dear Mr. Zick, Concerning your request for a variance in the storm water detention requirements for Landings 5th Filing I have the following co=ents: Due to the relatively small size of the subdivision the developed peak runoff is not significant. Since the runoff is channeled directly to either the Larimer Number 2 Irrigation Canal or the Warren Lake Inlet Canal downstream property owners will not be affected and therefore I see no problem with your request. Your request for a variance in the detention requirements for Landings 5th Filing is hereby approved provided written approval from the respective ditch company owners to accept the runoff is received by the developer and a copy is sent to the planning department.

Criteria Job No. 296-010 Variance Design we are requesting a variance from the City of Fort Collins Design Criteria for standard streets, for The Landings 5th Filing P.U.D. Specifically, the variance is requested for reverse curves 1 and 2 and reverse curves 10 and 11 on Spring Canyon Court. As indicated, these are reverse curves and do not conform to Design Criteria for minimum tangent length between curves. The minimum tangent length required for a local street is 50'. The reversed curves were necessary due to a long radius curve platted in The Landings 4th Filing. By continuing the curve to the West as the plat indicated the street geometry would reduce the size of the lots in the West portion of the P.U.D. to smaller than desired areas. Therefore we felt it was best to reverse the curvature back to the East to maintain desired lot sizes. Should you have any questions or comments concerning this request for variance, please feel free to call me. Very truly yours, .J.

Osprey, Inc., I am writing you this letter. TiL naLyprous dismassions between myself and you, we have discussed the issue of the riprap protection for the storm drainage swales on the Tandinqs Fifth F.ili::q project. As we have discussed before, I can appreciate your need for wanting to insure the riprap placed in these channels stays there and is not disturbed by vandalism. However, as we have talked before, the idea of seeding or soddinq these ched-incls seems rather costly and questionably functional. Mic belief between myself and Frank. Pumbcrt is that the seed or sod will he dee;troyed by the iq-)vement of the storm runoff in these channels. However, the fact still remains that we need erosion protection for these channels. Flhat Frank and you have discussed and what he has relaved to myself is that you would be willing to allcwa the seeding in the area specified on our drawinq entitled, "Gradi.nq :Plan", sheet 5 of 9 of the Tandincs Fifth Filing. This would in fact insure proper sodding and riprap in the areas most likely to erode. This would be the inlet and outlets to culverts and where the channel changes direction. I am in agreement with the both of you on this topic. I will be revising this sheet to reflect the typical cross section `or theso areas. 1 will he sending you a revised h,lar to be substituted in your set which is held by the Cite, 112 W. 11 TH AVE. 6412 S.
