Delta Construction JLB Civil Engineers Current Planning file #40-08 Page 5 Number: 17 Created: 12/ 15/2008 [12/15/081 Stormwater is ready for a hearing. Number: 20 Created: 12/ 15/2008 [ 12/15/08] The c-factor for the site is calculated with the current site plan in mind. If another building is planned in the future along the southern portion of the lot, the c-factor can include this impervious area and the pond can be sized for this expansion now. This may reduce future modifications to the detention pond and other drainage improvements that may be needed in the future. Number: 28 Created: 12/ 17/2008 [ 12/17/08] There is currently no record of a drainage easement for the privately owned Evergreen West detention pond. A letter from the Evergreen West detention pond property owner stating knowledge of and permission to construct the outfall storm sewer on this property is required. Also, please give the owner of this property a set of utility plans for their review.

Number: 3 Created: 12/10/2008 [12/10/08] Add a thrust block at the 90-degree bend on the fire line. Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: Zoning Number: 4 Created: 12/11/2008 [12/11/08] The project narrative states that 22 parking spaces are allowed, based on using 2 spaces/1000 sq. ft. The 2/1000 applies for "workshop and custom small industry". I need more information as to the nature of the industrial/manufacturing use to determine if it's "workshop and custom small industry" or "light industrial". If it's light industrial, they are allowed a max. of .75 parking spaces per employee working in the non -office part of the facility. Number: 5 Created: 12/ 11 /2008 [12/11/08] Need foundation plantings in Area 8 per Sec. 3.2.1(E)(2)(d). Page 4 f crews or fire apparatus. A better location would be the southwest corner of the structure. Please contact me so we can discuss. Number: 22 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] WATER SUPPLY: I noted the location of only one fire hydrant on the utility plan; can you include the locations of the closest fire hydrants? Fire hydrants must be the type approved by the water district having jurisdiction and the Fire Department. Hydrant spacing and water flow must meet minimum requirements based on type of occupancy. Minimum flow and spacing requirements include: -Commercial, 1,500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced not farther than 300 feet to the building, on 600-foot centers thereafter. These requirements may be modified if buildings are equipped with.automatic fire sprinkler systems. 97UFC 901.2.2.2 Number: 23 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] KNOX BOX REQUIRED: Poudre Fire Authority requires a "Knox Box" to be mounted on the front of every new building equipped with a required fire sprinkler system or fire alarm system. 97UFC 902.4; PFA BUREAU POLICY 88-20 Number: 24 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] EMERGENCY VEHICLE ACCESS: An Emergency Access Easement on the plat will not likely be needed.

Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Stormwater Number: 16 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/081 There is an option of using the regional pond to the east for this site's quantity detention requirement. This would require the Developer to make some improvements to the regional pond. These improvements may be cheaper than constructing an on -site pond and would free up some developable land. Water quality mitigation would still be required on - site. Some information on the improvements required is attached. Please contact me at 416- 2418 if interested in gathering more information. Page 3 I It [12/18/08] The driveway does not meet LCUASS standards as the traffic volume does not warrant a high volume driveway design as shown. Please revise and provide spot elevations. Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Rob Irish Topic: General Number: 11 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] Developer will need to show proposed transformer location on the site plan and then coordinate that location with Light & Power Engineering. Transformer pad will be approximately Tx 5' depending on load requirements. Also, the transformer location will need to be within 1.0' of an all weather drive -over surface. The transformer cannot be located between the curb and the walk in the City ROW. Number: 12 Created: 12/15/2008 [ 12/15/08] Light & Power will need a commercial service form completed for this site along with a One -Line diagram. Please take into account the future addition when calculating your load requirements so the transformer can be sized large enough to handle the future expansion. Number: 13 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] Any relocation or modification to existing electric facilities will beat the developer's expense. Electric capacity fee and building site charges will apply to this development. Number: 14 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] Contact Light & Power with proposed transformer location to coordinate placement and service to the transformer. Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carie Dann Topic: Fire Number: 18 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] FIRE LINE SIZE: Minimum fire line size for automatic fire sprinklers is 6 inches in diameter unless hydraulic calculations can support a smaller fire line (see PFA comment 6 in staff comment letter sent to Steve Lane on Sept. 26, 2008). Number: 19 Created: 12/15/2008 [12/15/08] ADDRESS NUMERALS: Because the two lots will become one lot, the structure will have only one address (1324 vs. 1330 Blue Spruce Drive). Tim Varrone from City GIS Department will work with you on this. Address numerals shall be visible from the street fronting the property, and posted with a minimum of 6 inch numerals on a contrasting background.

Number: 25 Created: 12/ 17/2008 [ 12/17/08] In Conceptual Review, it was suggested that the driveway align with Red Cedar Circle. The current layout does not meet the required separation distances and may cause a . safety concern for vehicles turning left out of the site and vehicles turning left from Red Cedar. For the current layout a variance request must be submitted for review and consideration. Number: 26 Created: 12/17/2008 [12/17/08] The following comments are from Technical Services (See Redlines): 1) Minor scanning issues with the site and landscape plans. 2) Plat title must match utility plan title. Number: 27 Created: 12/ 17/2008 [12/17/08] Sidewalk must align across the driveway for safety reasons. As shown it is attached on the south side and detached on the north side. Please revise.
