Response: Labeled as concrete 10/28/2013: The Site plan will need to label the dimensions of the trash enclosure. Also it is unclear at this time if the trash enclosure is located on the concrete pad and designed with walk-in access. Please make this clear on the site plan. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 10/28/2013 12/05/2013: The meter locations where identified but where is the mechanical/utility equipment?

Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 11/08/2013 11/08/2013: The existing handicap ramp at the southwest comer of Drake/Redwing, adjacent to the site, does not meet current ADA standards for handicap access. This project will need to reconstruct the handicap ramp to meet current standards. Response: A new handicap ramp is proposed at the southwest corner of Drake and Redwing and conforms to ADA standards. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 11/08/2013 11/08/2013: This project is responsible for dedicating any right-of-way and easements that are necessary for this project. It is not clear at this point how much right-of-way exists along Drake Rd. Per Larimer County records, approximately 92ft of right-of-way exists along Drake at this location. The proposed utility plans with this project reference 100ft of right-of-way that exists. ® Current standards for Drake Rd, a 4 lane arterial road, requires a minimum of 102ft total right-of-way needed (constrained arterial road standard), with this property responsible for half, or 5lftof right-of-way. Initially, it appears that dedication of additional right-of-way will be needed at this location. Please contact me to discuss the right-of-way issue further. Response: The current ROW for Drake Road is 100' wide with 50' half ROW. Additional ROW of 1' in width by separate document. A legal description and exhibit has been included for review. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 11/08/2013 11/08/2013: There is an existing power pole that encroaches into the sidewalk along Drake Rd, adjacent to the site that is an existing hazardous condition. The sidewalk will need to be routed around the pole at this location to provide adequate pedestrian connectivity. See redlines Response: The sidewalk is proposed to route around the existing power pole as we discussed. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 11/08/2013 11/08/2013: The building expansion is encroaching into existing utility easements on -site. The utility easements will need to be vacated by replat of the property or by separate document. Please contact me for additional information on the process to vacate utility easements by separate document. Response: The building has been revised to only encroach within the utility easement to the south. This area will be vacated by separate document and is included within this submittal for your review.

Also, please show proposed asphalt patching limits along the new drive approach. See redlines. Response: The drive approach has been redesigned to meet ADA standards. 11/08/2013: The main access drive approach off of Redwing does not meet ADA standards and is in poor condition. Currently, the attached sidewalk leads pedestrians to a 64 curb drop at the drive approach. A new drive approach will need to be constructed to meet current standards. Refer to LCUASS drawing 706. See redlines. Comment Number: 3 - or0V% Comment Originated: 11/08/2013 12/11/2013: Further evaluation of the handicap ramp configuration at Drake/Redwing is needed prior to approval. The minimum handicap ramp opening width is 5ft. With the existing power pole and utility boxes there may not be enough room to fit a standard handicap ramp. It may be necessary to relocate the conflicting utility boxes back, replace the handicap ramp and keep the sidewalk attached along Redwing St rather than routing the sidewalk around the utility boxes. A site visit has been setup to look at the configuration and site constraints and further discussion will follow. If the preferred layout is to route the sidewalk around the utility boxes an additional access easement is needed where the sidewalk extends onto private property. I will be in contact after the site meeting. Please contact me with questions. Response: Per our discussion on -site, we have redesigned the walk avoid existing conflicts and adequately route pedestrians to directional ramps while maintaining ADA regulations. 11/08/2013: The existing handicap ramp at the southwest comer of Drake/Redwing, adjacent to the site, does not meet current ADA standards for handicap access. This project will need to reconstruct the handicap ramp to meet current standards.
