Collins, Engineering 281 North College Ft. Collins, Colorado 60521 Re: Liberty Farms Off -Site Sanitary Sewer — Railroad Crossing Permit Dear Randy, The above -referenced project representatives have recently contacted me regarding a railroad crossing permit for the Burlington Northern Sante Fe (BNSF) railroad that the project's off -site sanitary sewer will need to cross along Vine Drive. You and I spoke on the telephone last Friday, 22 February 2008 regarding what I understand to be the City of Ft. Collins (City) requirement that this permit be in place before the City would grant the project approval. This letter seeks to document the conclusion of our discussion being that for this specific situation, the permit to cross the railroad will not be required at this time. Reasons for that being: 1. License Agreement Would Expire Before Construction: My reading of BNSF's license agreement requires that the infrastructure (i.e. the sanitary sewer crossing of the railroad) be installed within one year of when to permit is granted, else the permit is voided. Due to the fact that an off -site sewer of over 1-mile in length, that has yet to be designed and approved, would have to be in place before this crossing could be connected to sanitary sewer service, it is doubtful that the crossing would be constructed before the permit expired. The permit cost is $2500 and this fee would be unnecessarily spent if this occurred. The District fully anticipates working with the developer and the railroad to acquire the necessary permits to make this crossing when the timing is appropriate. 2. Insurance Coverage: If the crossing agreement were to be completed today, before the line would be installed and placed into service, the District would be required (per BNSF's license agreement) to place this crossing within its liability insurance coverage package. There would be a cost associated with this for which the District would not be realizing a just method of cost recovery (i.e. no sanitary sewer taps connected to the line, no payment of sewer fees to the District from the beneficiaries of the line, from which the District's sewer fees generate revenue). If there are questions, please contact me at 970-498-0604 Thank you.

Sincerely, 4w,pq &W� Shelby Sommer Associate Planner Page 7 • [3/3/08] The turn lane transitions on Cherry Hurst need revising to use curvature instead of angle points. Minimize the transitions to 75' to 100' to maximize storage. Use curvature instead of angle points on the Timberline left turn bay also. Number: 194 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08]- Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: Denise Weston Topic: Transportation Planning Number: 182 Created: 2/26/2008 [2/26/08] The proposed street network does comply with the existing Master Street Plan (12-18-07) but please be aware that the City will soon initiate an update to the Mountain Vista Sub Area Plan. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewaterlssue Contact: Basil Harridan Topic: Stormwater Number: 166 Created: 2/25/2008 1. Please provide a preliminary grading design for the future channel on the east side of the site showing how that channel would fit within a 40-foot wide easement, with 20 feet on either side of the property line. 2. Will the construction of the off -site storm sewer be all within the right of way? At 20 feet deep, construction easements may be needed from adjacent property owners. 3. Please discuss how in the future the pond can be retro fitted to.discharge into the proposed drainage channel to the east. It is suggested that either an easement is acquired to drain the pond to the east, or provide a retention pond in an interim condition until future downstream improvements are constructed. 4. At final a ditch crossing agreement will be needed. 5. For erosion control maybe a perimeter temporary ditch on the south end of the site along the canal might prevent silt from entering the irrigation canal. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewaterlssue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: WaterMastewater Number: 106 Created: 11 /6/2007 [2/26/08] (Repeat comment) [11/6/07] The City's 24-inch main in Timberline is cathodically protected. Show the CP test stations on the plans and add notes to protect in place or if re -location is required, contact City Water Utilities (221-6700). Page 6 Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carle Dann Topic: Fire Number: 184 Created: 2/27/2008 [2127/08] PFA has no comments or concerns at this time. Department: Traffic Operations Issue Contact: Ward Stanford Topic: Traffic Number: 186 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Rodel analysis provides that capacity easily meets volume expectations. Sht 9 of the Utility plans gives more dimensional information of the Rbt than previous, but still is missing approach geometric data as modeled in Rodel. Please provide the approach data on the Rbt Detail sheet. Number: 187 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Some of the geometric dimensions on the Rbt Detail plan (sht 9) do not correspond to the Rodel values. The Rodel analysis values and the plan geometry should correspond or there should be analysis or discussion as to how the plan dimensions meet or exceed the capacity provided by the Rodel analysis. Please model the planned geometry in Rodel, or provide discussion as to how the Rbt on sht 9 meets or exceeds the Rodel analysis. Number: 188 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Some of the Rbt plan dimensions (sht 9) do not clearly define their start and stop points and some dimensions are still not provided, such as half -width and flair length on the approaches, and inscribed diameter of the Rbt (missing the center dimension to sum with the other provided dimensions to know the diameter). Please provide that information on sht 9. Number: 189 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Did not receive a landscape plan. Please provide with next submittal. Number: 190 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Need to add bike alternative route sign at the curb cuts that provide for bike to use the sidewalk. Number: 191 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] Please revise the north end of the painted gore area on Timberline at the Cherry Hurst access to correlate with a vehicle turning path (much as would be done for a raised median nose). Number: 192 Created: 3/3/2008 [3/3/08] No fastest path information has been provided. Please provide. Number: 193 Created: 3/3/2008 Page 5 • [2/25/08] Based on discussion with the City Pavement Management Director, the concrete road section proposed on Chenyhurst should extend and connect to the concrete roundabout. Because it is an arterial roadway, it is not preferred to have several concrete to asphalt transitions. Asphalt and concrete costs are almost the same based on new cost data provided to the City. Number: 176 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Please provide a crack control jointing detail for the concrete pavement on Cherryhurst and for the roundabout. Number: 177 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Timberline Road Design — The interim and ultimate Timberline design needs to be shown for the entire street cross section along the frontage of the property with cross sections for both provided every 50 feet. The preliminary off -site design needs to show centerline and both flowline profiles as well as cross sections. Please refer to LCUASS 7.4.1(8) for off -site design requirements. There will likely be medians and turn lanes into the site with the ultimate design. The ultimate cross sections should show how the crown of the road will be constructed with respect to the median locations. Number: 178 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] The vertical curve shown on sheet 29 does not meet minimum curve length requirements outlined in LCUASS Figure 7-17 and 7-18. Design speed of 45 mph, algebraic grade difference of 5-6 percent. Please revise the curves and show the flowline profiles for off -site preliminary design as well per LCUASS 7.4.1(8). Number: 179 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] The Cherryhurst — Timberline intersection detail on sheet 32 must show the crown transition length (min. 30 feet) and elevation points. Please refer to LCUASS Figure 7-27. Number: 180 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Please be sure to revise the Site and Landscape Plans to be consistent with the Utility Plans. Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Doug Martine Topic: Electric Utility Number: 153 Created: 2/5/2008 [2/5/08] Light & Power Engineering will need to know the power requirements for each building before the electric utility facilities can be designed. The developer will also need to coordinate with Light & Power Engineering the locations for electric transformers. The dimensions of, and clearance requirements to the transformers will vary depending on the building power requirements. Normal electric development charges will apply. Page 4 Number: 158 Created: 2/22/2008 [2/22/08] Small line/text conflicts on the site plan, especially where sidewalks are dimensioned (see redlines). Please try your best to clean these up and make them as clear as possible so that they will scan well. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Randy Maizland Topic: Engineering Number: 167 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] There are many line over text conflicts throughout the plan set that must be fixed prior to producing mylars. Please see LCUASS Appendix E for scannability requirements. Number: 168 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Please show and label the approximate limits of street cut on Timberline on the Overall Utility Plan sheet 4. Provide the standard street cut note. Number: 169 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Please try to locate the City signature block on the lower right comer of all sheets. Number: 170 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] The parkway width dimensions on the Horizontal control plan sheets should include the curb head. 10 feet on arterials, 6 feet on collectors. Number: 171 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Roundabout Detail — The pedestrian ramps do not connect to the flow lines. Please show how the ramps will flare out. See redlines sheet 9 for clarification. Number: 172 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] Roundabout Detail — The roundabout cannot use pans to convey water across the access or exiting approach. Please see LCUASS Appendix I, section 1.1.4 regarding drainage. Number: 173 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] LCUASS Appendix I requirements for roundabout details have not been met. Please provide information regarding truck apron slope, mountable curb type, colored concrete for apron etc... Number: 174 Created: 2/25/2008 [2/25/08] The roundabout designing engineer shall make specific recommendations for sight distances, related to signage, landscape etc... Number: 175 Created: 2/25/2008 Page 3 • Number: 162 Created: 2/22/2008 [2/22/08] Trash enclosures need to be designed for walk-in service so that the main gates do not need to be opened. This may be dimensioned on the enclosure detail, but it is not clearly labeled. Also, please label swing gate material and color. Number: 185 Created: 2/29/2008 [2/29/08] Forestry (Tim Buchanan): These notes should be added to the landscape plan: "The soil in all landscape areas, including parkways and medians, shall be thoroughly loosened to a depth of not less than 8 inches and soil amendment shall be thoroughly incorporated into the soil of all landscape areas to a depth of at least 6 inches by tilling, disking or other suitable method, at a rate of at least 3 cubic yards of soil amendment per 1,000 square feet of landscape area. A permit must be obtained from the City forester before any trees or shrubs as noted on this plan are planted, pruned or removed on the public right-of-way. This includes zones between the sidewalk and curb, medians and other city property. This permit shall approve the location and species to be planted. Failure to obtain this permit may result in replacing or relocating trees and a hold on certificate of occupancy. The developer shall contact the City forester to inspect all street tree plantings at the completion of each phase of the development. All trees need to have been installed as shown on the landscape plan. Approval of street tree planting is required before final approval of each phase. Failure to obtain approval by the City forester for street trees in a phase shall result in a hold on certificate of occupancy for future phases of the development." Topic: Building Elevations Number: 163 Created: 2/22/2008 [2/22/08] 1 appreciate how the buildings are a variety of colors, but would also like to see the shingles in different colors for different building types if possible to break up the monotony. Topic: Site Plan Number: 156 Created: 2/22/2008 [2/22/08] Small typo on the Site Plan cover sheet - please change date in Director of Planning signature block to 2008 or leave as 200_. Otherwise the cover sheet looks good and is much easier to read than the previous rounds! Number: 157 Created: 2/22/2008 [2/22/08] One small problem area in the parking area east of Building 2: there are 19 parking stalls without an intervening tree, landscape island/peninsula. A maximum of 15 spaces are permitted in a row. There is trash enclosure intervening, but landscaping is also required.
