Contact Info: Roger Buffington, 221-6854, rbuffington@fcgov.com
1. Existing mains: 6-inch water and 8-inch sewer west of King Soopers in an easement. In
addition, a 2-inch domestic water service and 6-inch fire line extend from this water main to
the King Soopers building in the general vicinity of the proposed cell tower facility.
2. Field locate the water/sewer mains and the domestic water service and fire line to
determine if conflicts exist. Maintain 10-foot separation to all water/sewer lines.
3. If an irrigation system is planned, the least costly method of obtaining water would be to
work with King Soopers to connect to the building water system.
4. If a new, separate water tap is desired, development fees and water rights will be due at
time of building permit.

1. Carol has reviewed the proposal for a Verizon Wireless Telecommunication Facility at
Cedarwood Plaza. While a formal historic survey of the area has not occurred, a
reconnaissance survey indicates that there are no buildings or structures within 250 feet
that would likely qualify for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally,
there is no likely National Register District potential in this area.

1. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Canal Importation
Master Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria and Construction standards.
2. There will be a fee on the building permit for equipment pad shown on the plan. The fee
will be for the new imperviousness. The city-wide development fee is $3,070/acre
($0.0705/sq.ft.) for new impervious area over 350 sq.ft. No fee is charged for existing
impervious area. This fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued.
3. A grading plan is required. If there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 1000
square feet a drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required.
These must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. A grading plan
is required when there is between 1000 and 350 square feet of new imperviousness, but no
drainage study is required. There are no requirements for less than 350 square feet.
4. Normally onsite detention is required with a 2-year historic release rate for water quantity
and extended detention is required for water quality treatment only if there is an increase in
imperviousness greater than 1000 square feet. If there is less than 1000 but more than 350
square feet of new imperviousness, a site grading plan is all that is required.
5. Please verify and show the detention pond easements clearly since the equipment cannot
be located in the detention pond.

1. After talking with the hearing officer about this proposal and the T-Mobile project that is
currently in development review, he thinks the best solution to meet the intent of the
standards of the Land Use Code will be for Verizon to collocate with T-Mobile on a taller
pole, perhaps as high as 50 feet. This will require T-Mobile and Verizon to have a
neighborhood meeting, preferably jointly, and to submit requirements for special height
review. I will coordinate the neighborhood meeting at your request, when you are nearly
ready to submit your formal application. I will contact T-Mobile to let them know that you
will be contacting them about collocation opportunities and the neighborhood meeting. The
contact information I have for the T-Mobile project is: Chris Stryker, (303)859-0344 or
ccstryker2@aol.com. You will also need to coordinate with King Soopers. The special
height review requirements are in Section 3.5.1 (G), listed below. Please let me know if you
have questions about this procedure. The Cingular site to the south of this property did a
special height review if you would like to see an example.
2. The entire Fort Collins Land Use Code (LUC) is available for your review on the web at
http://www.colocode.com/ftcollins/landuse/begin.htm
3. This development proposal will be subject to all applicable standards of the Fort Collins
Land Use Code (LUC), including Article 3 General Development Standards, and Division
4.23 Neighborhood Commercial District.
4. When developing your plans for submittal, pay particular attention to the following sections
of the Code:
