Topic: Construction Drawings
Comment Number: 3
Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: The drive approaches for the two private drives intersecting the south side of Ellis
Street and Apex Drive appear to be built as a standard street intersection as evident by the
reference of LCUASS detail 708. These drive approaches need to be concrete to the property
line and be built with the Standard Drive Approach (LCUASS Detail 707). Note #3 on Sheet
C-010 does indicate the use of concrete to the right-of-way, but combining this with 708 instead
of 707 seems confusing.
Comment Number: 9
Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: More information is needed on the construction plan set for the two inlets
proposed in proposed driveways. Please have details provided on the construction plan set
showing cross sectional views for both the inlets and the driveways, how the inlet grate
matches these driveway grades, etc. It may be worth looking into having the inlets be placed
behind the gutter.

08/17/2012: Were additional variance requests intended to be submitted beyond those
granted during the PDP? If so, I did not receive a copy with this submittal.

Topic: General
Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Can the possibility be explored of widening Ellis Street out to 36 feet in width
approaching Prospect Road? The wider width would help create an approach onto Prospect
Road that would better allow a three lane cross-section to function (with right -in, left -out, and
right -out maneuvers). The intent would be that the 36 feet would extend for a short distance past
the intersection such that vehicles at the intersection We've had the 30 feet local street cross
section widened out to 36 feet or larger at arterial intersections in development such as
Pinnacle Townhomes (with Robertson Street at 39 feet), Lemay Avenue Estates, Sidehill and
Observatory Village. It appears that since additional right-of-way occurs on the west side of Ellis
Street, it may not be as impactive to accommodate this widening.
Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Please provide access ramps that allow for a crossing for the Ellis Street/Apex
Drive street turn (no striped crosswalk), perhaps this could occur with the extension of the trail
from Tract C out to this street turn (realizing that it appears an electric transformer may be
planned for this area, which may be of concern).
Comment Number: 5
Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Please label "(Private Drive)" on all sheets for the Sprocket Drive and Ellis Street
loop south of Apex Drive.
Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: The site and construction plans need to specify signs being added to the
entrances of the Sprocket Drive and Ellis Street loop indicating that each street is privately
owned and maintained. Please provide a detail of these signs on the construction plan set,
examples of these are with the existing Council Tree Avenue in Front Range Village and the
under construction Choice Center Drive in Choice Center.
Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Please verify whether driveover curb is intended to be used in public right-of-way.
A driveover curb detail didn't appear to be provided in the details sheet.
Comment Number: 13 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: What are the agreements that will be required for the work that occurs offsite of the
property onto City owned land to the south? (Is it unusual for a private storm sewer line to be
placed in City owned property?)
Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: The engineer will need to verify whether a 404 permit is needed from the Army
Corps.
Topic: Plat
Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Please remove "P.D.P." at the end of "New Prospect P.D.P." on the title of the
plat.
Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: In addition to the previous comment, on the plat, there needs to be a Tract created
to designate the Sprocket Drive and Ellis Street loop (with then dedication of pertinent
easements to the City for utility, drainage, access, and emergency access easement).
Currently the plat appears to show these as public right-of-way, dedicated to the City, which
would be problematic.
Comment Number: 7
Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Please add a Notice the City has created regarding the use of private drives on
the plat. A paper copy will be provided for the proper illustration, the text of the note is as
follows: "ALL RESPONSIBILITIES AND COSTS OF OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND
RECONSTRUCTION OF THE PRIVATE STREETS AND/OR DRIVES LOCATED ON THE
PRIVATE PROPERTY THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF THIS PLAT SHALL BE BORNE BY THE
OWNERS OF SAID PROPERTY, EITHER INDIVIDUALLY, OR COLLECTIVELY, THROUGH A
PROPERTY OWNERS' ASSOCIATION, IF APPLICABLE. THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS SHALL
HAVE NO OBLIGATION OF OPERATION, MAINTENANCE OR RECONSTRUCTION OF SUCH
PRIVATE STREETS AND/OR DRIVES NOR SHALL THE CITY HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO
ACCEPT SUCH STREETS AND/OR DRIVES AS PUBLIC STREETS OR DRIVES."
Comment Number: 11 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: The plat language has since been updated and will need to be modified to the
updated version. An electronic version of this can be sent, or a hard copy provided.
Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 08/17/2012
08/17/2012: Are there lots that are prohibited from having basements, and if so, can these lots
be called out specifically on the plat as not being allowed to have basements? This would
ensure that the information is known at time of record searches with the plat being recorded at
Larimer County.

08/17/2012: Please revise the water quality outlet structure detail to show 1 column and revise
corresponding hole diameter. The City recommends only 1 column per row so larger diameter
holes can be used to minimize clogging.

10/29/2012: The detail shows a conflict between the existing 30" sewer and the proposed 8". It
appears that the 8" sewer is coming into the side of the 30" as it nears the MH. The small angle
between the two pipes is a key factor in the problem.
08/14/2012: Provide a detail on the proposed MH to be constructed over the 30" sewer near
Lots 9 & 10.

10/18/2012: 1 agree that the setback issue has been resolved. However, the 'building
setbacks' information on Sheet 1 of 5 states "see typicals on Sheet 2". However, the typicals
on Sheet 2 no longer show any dimensions. Please add the dimensions.
07/27/2012: Site plan sheet 2 of 5 indicates that the front building setback for lots 18 � 22 will
be 104. The code requires a 156 minimum front setback. The proposed 10� setback will
require a modification. The jypical Loth details on the same sheet show similar
non -complying setbacks for other lots.

10/18/2012: The applicant's comment letter in the latest re -submittal states that the note has
been corrected. However, the wording of note 19 is the same as the wording from the
previous submittal. Therefore, it still needs to be corrected.
07/27/2012: Note #19 on site plan sheet 1 of 5 is confusing. It states that lots 1-25 can be
duplexes or detached single family, but goes on to state that there can be only one unit per lot.
I assume the term 6uniQ means dwelling unit, and if so, that means there can6t be any
duplexes on those lots since that would be 2 units on a lot. If by 6uniQ they mean 6building6,
then that6s the term they should use instead. If 6uniQ means 6building6, then Note #20
becomes confusing in that it.would mean that 2 single-family dwellings could be on lot 26 and
on lot 27.
