Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 RE: Early Strength Concrete at Prospect. and College on June 11, 1993 Dear Sir: Western Mobiie/Northern 1800 North Tat! Hill Pc. P0. Box 2187 Fort Collins. Colorado 80522 303-482-7854 534-4583 Metro Fax 303-224-5564 The 5 cubic yards of concrete poured across from Taco Bell as referenced, has a very low water cement ratio (< 0.35), high 28 day strength (> 5,000 PSI), and low permeability. Given these considerations, I will grant a warranty minimum of 2 years for the structure and surface integrity. At this time, I cannot explain the loss of about 5% air from our plant to the placement site. After some further investigation, I will relay any findings to you. Meanwhile, I urge you to consider leaving the poured concrete in place. It should out perform 6 sack, air entrained city standard concrete. I'll look forward to further communication on this subject.

Spike Hoffman 5305 South County Road # 9 Fort Collins, CO 80525 Re: Taco Bell P.U.D. Dear Mr. Hoffman: This letter is confirm our telephone conversation of July 26th, regarding the damage to the concrete street pavement adjacent to the newly installed fire hydrant at the Taco Bell site on south College Avenue at Prospect Road. Per our telephone conversation, I agreed to allow the routing and sealing of the crack in the concrete pavement just south of the section placed as a result of the required utility work. This corner crack begins at the gutter lip and travels in a north westward diagonal direction to the sawed joint. As a condition to this procedure, I made it clear that should any spalling or other street damage occur as a result of this crack then your firm would be required to remove and replace a minimum three (3) foot wide section from the gutter lip to the lane line. If you are in agreement with the conditions as stated above, please sign and date this letter and return it to me. In addition, I am returning your unsigned letter dated July 26, 1993, addressed to me regarding this matter. Please sign your letter and attach it to this signed original letter and return it to me at your earliest convenience. Thank you for cooperation in this matter. ike H man, President Demex Procut, Inc.

Messner Engineering Associates 150 E. 29th Street, Suite 225 Loveland, CO 80538 RE: Proposal for Engineering Services Related to Street Improvements for East Prospect Road Between South College Avenue and Remington Street, Fort Collins, Colorado AKA Taco Bell at Prospect and College Avenue Dear Mr. Messner: This letter is in response to your letter dated October 28, 1991, transmitting a proposal for engineering services on the above titled subject. I believe we have a misunderstanding of what I may have requested. I do not believe I requested a proposal. In fact the City cannot accept the proposal. The work you perform will be for the Developer of the Taco Bell site. The City commitment to pay for design and construction of the right turn lane on Prospect is to the Developer. The City's role with you, the engineer for the Developer, will be to review and approve the public improvement plans (Utility Plans). In addition the City will provide you with the criteria we have available for you to use. Since the design for transitions into and out of the widened portion of Prospect cannot be designed to standards, you will have to propose an alternative that provides a "best fit" that provides the safest compromise. The surveying for right of way descriptions that you have in your proposal, are not needed. The City surveyors have done preliminary work on right of way and will complete it based on your final approved design. I have attached a copy of your Project Scope, Critical Issues and Project Costs pages from your proposal and made these and other comments in the margins. As for coordination with the City for the design, all of your contacts should be made through Kerrie Ashbeck or me. Kerrie's and my role is to coordinate everything on the City side. There will be times when you will have to deal directly with other departments, but Kerrie or I must be kept informed on those activities. Our coordination role is for overview so one department's comments does not affect another department's needs. 281 North College Avenue • P.O.

Box 580 281 North College Avenue Port Collins, Colorado 80522 - 0580 RE: Proposal for Engineering Services Related to Street Improvements for East Prospect Road Between South College Avenue and Remington Street, Fort Collins, Colorado Dear Mr, Herzig, As you have requested, I have prepared the following proposal based upon our conversation with regard to the subject project. The proposal is being submitted by Messner Engineering Associates with the supporting services of Frederick Land Surveying, professional land surveyors, and Terracon Consultants SE, Inc., �cotechnicit, environmental and materials engineers. The party with overall control and primary rrapunsibility to provide project administration and the principle line of communication is to be Dennis R. V]owner, P.E., Principal of Messner Engineering Associates. The proposed project team has had several ycnrs of working associations and anticipate that their combined experience and expertise will enable them to successfully meet the desires and needs of the City of Fort Collins. The attached information is presented under the following headings: PROJECT SCOPE; CRITICAL ISSUES; and PROJECT COSTS. We are extremely pleased to have the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to being of service to the City of Fort Collins. After you and the other members of the staff have had the opportunity to review this information, I will be happy to rneet with you to discuss the proposal. If you should have any questions or desire additional nformation, please feel free to contact this office. Respectt'ully Submitted, iMESSNER Engineering Associates Dennis R. Messner, P.E.

The proposed engineering services are to be performed forsfreet improvements to. FsIst Prospect -Road. The project location begins at East Prospect Road's intersection with South College AVO ue and extends easterly along East Prospect Road to its intersection with Remington Street. The ohjectives for the project are considered to be 1. Determine the extent of lane transitions required in order to provide for the smooth and safe flow of traffic to and from the major intersection located at South College Avenue. The proposed street section is to accomodate: a continuation from South College Avenue of a Right -Turn Lane east -bound hru Lane east -hound; a center raised Median; a Left -Turn Lane to south -bound South College Avenue; Thna-Lnnes west -bound; and a Right -Turn Lane to north -bound South College Avenue. ^� L. The design and construction of the improvements is to minimize grade changes in order to match the adjacent topography and to retain the drainage pattern for the area. 3. The proposed improvements are anticipated to require the acquision of additional street right-of-way in order to accomodate the proposed street section. The design shall identify the area(s) required for the additional right-of-way. - ----- -1. The design is to consider that the construction may be phased and that pavement alternatives may he required in order to accomodate this phasing. All engineering services are to be performed in accordance with the DESIGN CRITERIA AND STANDARDS FOR STREETS for the City of Fort Collins, Colorado (latest edition) and the ROADWAY DESIGN MANUAL, for the State of Colorado, Department of Transportation (latest edition). Ci �'` �'�',� lG7 !i' jC''L•f%@ �, L A brief sequence of issues and stages in the design and construction process is outlined as follows: stablish a line of communication with each entity involved in order to obtain design input, f ri'Y%f �� determine review requirements and establish schedules.

The scope of services to be performed has been defined previously. It is understood that the scope may be altered or modified through the process of finalizing a "Professional Services Agreement." Therefore, final contractual cost amount is subject to negotiation based upon the final scope of services. The proposed costs are as follows: DESIGN PHASE 1.

Therefore, this item has not had a cost attributed. A cost will be submitted for acceptance after the topographic survey has been performed. At that time the extent of existing property monumentation in the vicinity of the project will be known. It will then he possible to determine the costs to be associated with establishing the existing right-of-way and defining the parcels to be acquired for additional right-of-way. *(h) The costs indicated are based upon performing the services indicated with all construction completed under a single contract, i.e., no phasing of the improvements.
