The sign is to prohibit parking in front of the turn -around area at the south end of Avondale. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Sheet 27/36: Please add signage at the Roundabout (Rbt) for the new extension of Avondale. Signage for the new approach should match existing signage for the other approaches. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Sht 27/36: Please add some dimensions to the painted splitter island to guide the placement of the yellow side lines (labeled as A) in the roadway. Dimension the distance between the ends of the splitter island at the Rbt and at the X-walk. Dimension one side of those yellow side stripe ends from a base point such as the curb face, flowline, street centerline, etc.. All of this is due to the City isn't installing much development striping anymore therefore we've found we need to provide some minimal design info for outside contractors on these mini-Rbt characteristics. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/16/2014 01/15/2014: Sht 27/36: Please add a note to state not to include the white dashed line on the new approach to the Rbt that delineates the outer edge of the Rbt circulating lane (exists on other 3 legs). In locations that have that striping existing we are letting it wear away and not refreshing it. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/16/2014 01/15/2014: Sht 27/36: Please remove the solid white stripes (labeled as C) on both sides of the enhanced crosswalk.

Existing significant trees need to be retained to the extent reasonably feasible. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01 /15/2014: Species Changes: Marshall Ash and Patmore Ash are used on the project. With the detection of Emerald Ash Borer in Colorado designers are not including ash in designs. Selecting a non -ash species as substitution will greatly increase the future sustainability of the landscape. Please provide an alternate species for the ash for improved landscape sustainability. Princess Kay Plum is used on the project. The City Forestry Division has found it does not survive long term in the Fort Collins area. Please use a substation ornamental tree.

Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: On Sheet 18 the crossing of Alignment L into Avondale seems to depict Avondale's finished grade as having a slope not directed to the curb and gutter, is this intended? Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: On the plan and profile sheet for Avondale please indicate an existing grade along flowline and centerline that the proposed grades would tie into with the extension. Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Please provide. cross -sections for the to be constructed Avondale Road along the property at 50 foot intervals. Of particular interest is the cross slope at the eastern end of the property as the crown of the roadway appears to transition out and would need to be looked at closer with review of the cross sections. If ultimately agreed to, mill limits would need to be indicated on the plans showing how much asphalt would need to be removed by future development with the extension of the roadway to the east (and the corresponding escrow that would be needed)., Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Please show proposed street patching on the utility plan sheet. There a depiction .that implies street patching on Triangle at Woodrow Drive and further north, but the water and sewer tie-ins appear to be between these two depictions. Comment Number: 11 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: The response letter indicates that a note was added to the drawings to indicate the rebuilding of the existing access ramp at the north end of the site along Triangle Drive for ADA and current City code compliance. I'm not finding this on the drawings, can it be pointed out? It should be pointed out on the horizontal control plan on Sheet 12. Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Please add the City's driveover curb detail to the details sheet. Comment Number: 13 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: The sidewalk chase detail included in the plan set specifies the widening of the sidewalk on both sides of the chase. This widening should be depicted on the plans to ensure it's not initially missed with the construction of sidewalk. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: The plans should indicate the use of driveover curb for the emergency access off . of Triangle Drive. Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 01/15/2014 01/15/2014: Please relocate the tree on the north side of Avondale Road that is at the eastern boundary of the site just east of the temporary turnaround. It should not be in the path of the future extension of the sidewalk. In general I'm trying to recall again why the sidewalk on the north side of Avondale cannot be extended to eastern boundary of the property as was done on the south side? The extension of the sidewalk by future development would be disruptive to the property and irrigation would need to be retrofitted to provide irrigation that does not irrigate on the sidewalk. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/17/2014 01/17/2014: Will the buildings be cooled by use of outdoor condensing units? If so, please add a General Note that ground -mounted outdoor condensing units will be screened by landscaping to the maximum extent feasible. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/17/2014 01/17/2014: Please add notation that the crosswalk in front of the clubhouse consists of pavement striping. Comment Number: We need to make sure that this striping is installed. VA Comment Originated: 01/17/2014 01/17/2014: Please double check the Legend for both the Site and Landscape Plans. Be sure that the Legends include all the details as shown on Site Details sheet 4 of B. For example, I'm not seeing where the pet station and seat walls will be installed. Also, be sure to add one trash container for each pet station. (Asa suggestion, perhaps the art students at the Coyote Ridge Elementary School can paint the trash containers as has been done in various public parks throughout the City. This will help the project integrate into the neighborhood.) Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 01/17/2014 01/17/2014: On plans sheets, please do not use ghosted text as it does not reproduce with clarity.
