Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80525 RE: Talon Estate PDP Second Submittal . Dear Mr. Olt, The Fort Collins - Loveland Water District has reviewed the above mentioned project and submits the following comments. The existing District water services are to be connected to the new Fort Collins water line after the water line has been put into service. The service line connections need to be shown on the drawings. The District's existing water line must remain in service until all water services have been relocated. How and where the 8 inch water line is abandoned needs to be identified. The District will require the District's standard signature block on the construction sheets that affect District facilities. All work on or around District facilities are to be coordinated with.the District. The property needs to be excluded from the District boundaries. The Petition for Exclusion packet can be obtained at the District's office Please do not hesitate to contact me at 226-3104, ext. 104, if you have any questions or require additional information.

[10/1/07] Is there still a need for the insulation over the water main at Station 7+40 to 8+67? [3/27/07] Revise grading to minimizes cuts on Falcon Drive over 16-inch water main and thereby, eliminate the need for insulation. Number: 215 Created: 1/22/2008 / 6,c,�, j [1/22/08] On Sheet C5.3, why is water main extending north from Falcon Drive shown going deeper from point of tap on the 16-inch? Be sure and return all red -lined plans with any re -submittal. If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please feel free to call me at 221-6341. u Page 9 Number: 182 Created:10/5/2007 [1/24/08] Please identify and dimension the transition length (30' min). This J comment is tied to C6.1, the plan and profile sheet. It appears that the 'b %xAO existing asphalt to the crosspan will need to be removed so that you can hit max , grade breaks, flow line requirements, etc. [10/5/07] Detail 3 - the existing asphalt to the crosspan may need to be removed and replaced in order to tie the proposed into it correctly. Until more information is shown on the P&P, the extent of the removals are unclear. Number: 227 Created:1/24/2008 --bb,,n:::� [1/24/08] Instead of a 10' C&G transition, start the rollover immediately at_ the ramp. Please note to remove existing C&G if it currently is in place. Number: 237 Created: 1/25/2008 [1/25/08] Spot elevations are missing, please provide. The HP at the end of Falcon drive needs to be at the end of the new construction so that drainage p flows are contained within this development. Please remove the 10' C&G, transition and start the rollover at the ramp. Will review the intersection details in detail after the P&P sheets are corrected and the missing spots are provided. Topic: Utility Plans - Cover Number: 220 Created:1/24/2008 [1/24/08] Several variances for this project were granted and need to be listed under line 48 of the General Notes. Please state the Lorimer County DbA--'t�' Urban Area Street Standards section and standard and then state what the variance was granted for. Please include items such as the attached walk, wider ' parkway widths, minimum cover over structures in the road., manhole in the walk and the inlet that was allowed to stay versus adding two type R's. I think I have everything covered - can you think of anything else? Topic: Utility Plans - Details Number: 225 Created: 1/24/2008 [1/24/08] Please remove figure 7-27 as it is only a detail used for design "'� requirements, not construction. Your intersection details are providing this information. Page 8 this size will cost approximately $90-110k, plus another $15k in design costs, based on projects recently built in the city. [10/5/07] This development is responsible for escrowing the cost of the sidewalk to the end of the property, the sidewalk curb chase and half the cost of constructing the bridge. An estimate will be required for our review and approval and that amount will be placed in the Development Agreement due at first building permit. Number: 164 Created: 10/5/2007 -D,s zo [1/24/08] Please identify crown transition length for the crosspan, label cross slope of the crosspan (.5% minimum).

Number: 157 Created:l0/4/2007 [1/24/08] Maximum grade breaks have been exceeded ... you might have to throw a VC in here to make it work right. A variance will be needed if using less than a 75' VC. Need to meet minimum FL grades around the curb returns while not exceeding max grade breaks. [10/4/07] Profiles must be carried out to the CL of the crosspan. Once this info is shown, we'll be able to determine whether or not the proposed ties into existing while meeting standards or if you'll have to remove and replace the . existing to tie everything in. Number: 158 Created:l0/4/2007 [1/24/08] Please label the cross slope on the crosspans so we can make sure you're hitting .5% minimum. [10/4/07] Minimum of .5% cross slope required on all crosspans (typical). Number: 235 Created: 1/25/2008 [1/25/08] See redlines for comments that apply to all P&P sheets. Driveways are labeled with "match existing grade"; however, the HP must be at the Property Line as we do not want drainage from the street flowing into the private properties. Perhaps adding an additional note to this affect plus the fact that drive approaches may need to be reworked to achieve this. Topic: Utility Plans - 6.3 Number: 162 Created: 10/5/2007 [1/24/08] The estimate for the bridge and the sidewalk has been received andiV�'` denied. The sidewalk estimate needs to include the cost of the removals,plus 35' of sidewalk plus the chase. The bridge estimate needs to be for a 4 sided pd��ag box culvert minimum built to a local street section with attached 6' walks and parapet walls (see figure 1108). Please include removals, excavation & backf ill (everything necessary to construct the bridge) plus a 25% contingency if the developer wishes to put up the cash. If he chooses to put up a bond or letter or credit instead, please include a 50% contingency. We estimate that a bridge of Page 6 Topic: Utility Plans - 3.0 Number: 218 Created: 1/24/2008 [1/24/08] Please label the asphalt patch at the north end of Falcon Drive or add a note to see C6.6 or add the patch symbol to the legend, whichever one you like best works for me.

Topic: Utility Plans - 6.0 Number: 233 Created: 1/25/2008 [1/25/08] Note 13 - this note conflicts with the information shown on the P&P sheets. The P&P sheets are showing to keep the existing pavement and this hie- sheet is showing to remove. It appears that the P&P sheets need to remove the existing asphalt to make the grades work so this note will work. Just noted this to coordinate it in the future. Number: 234 Created: 1/25/2008 / [1/25/08] Note 14 - I couldn't find where this was used on any of the sheets. ✓ Has something been left off or is this note unnecessary?

Topic: Site Number: 186 Created: 10/5/2007 [1/24/08] I think I understand what you're trying to convey here ... perhaps Dom using two different line weights (one for the property boundary and one for the ROW) will help clarify the plans. [10/5/07] Please remove the portion of the row line shown through the intersections. See red -lines. Number: 216 Created: 1/24/2008 Dot$e) [1/24/08] See comments under Steve Olt in Planning for Tract labeling issues. Needs to match the plat (which is calling out Tract A with different easements than the Site Plan is). Topic: Soils Report Number: 170 Created: 10/5/2007 [1/24/08] Thank you for submitting the additional soils investigation report. Based on the recommendations of the report, please provide evidence from the D,z Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment that the levels found within the site are acceptable for the proposed development. [10/5/07] As a condition of approval, this development was to provide evidence of a soils report evaluating the presence of soil contaminants on the subject property. This information was not received within the submitted soils report or by separate document. M Page 4 Number: 208 Created: 1/10/2008 [1/10/08] At the end of the note on the bottom of the Landscape Plan about �g the landscaping on the south side of Falcon Drive, please add: ...by the Property bddi Owner to the South... (being the Klines). This will help avoid any confusion about who the "responsible" property owner is, possibly mistaken to being the property owner of Talon Estates. Number: 210 Created: 1/10/2008, Ve,rJ'P [1/10/08] Please label Tract A in a couple of places on the Landscape Plan. See the red -lined plan. Topic: Plot Number: 213 Created: 1/16/2008 [1/16/08] The reference to Tract A being a utility, pedestrian access and J drainage easement and wildlife buffer zone refers to note 5. It actually should be note 6 (see red -lined plat). Topic: Site Number: 209 Created: 1/10/2008 S [1/10/08] Per the subdivision plat, Tract A is a Utility, Pedestrian Access and / OjIS Drainage Easement; and, a Wildlife Buffer Zone. Please label Tract A as such on - V 3 the Site Plan and revise GENERAL NOTE #3 to reflect this, per the red -lined plan. Number: 212 Created: 1/16/2008 [1/16/08] On the Site Plan, please eliminate the reference to "w/ 7' parkway" near the intersection of South Taft Hill Road and Falcon Drive (see red -lined plan). The sidewalk is attached for about 200' along Falcon Drive in that location. Parkways are generally considered to be landscaped areas between detached sidewalks and curbs.

Topic: Landscape Plans Number: 204 Created:1/10/2008 [1/10/08] The current revised Landscape Plan has a date of 11/14/07. It is in. �1y response to a Landscape Plan dated 09/04/07 that was with the original Final Plan submittal. Was a red -lined Landscape Plan (by Current Planning) with the f0l 09/04/07 date included in the packet sent to the Applicant with the Staff comment letter dated 10/05/07? If it was, why was that red -lined plan not returned with the current revisions? Number: 205 Created:1/10/2008 [1/10/08] The word Association is misspelled in NOTES #4 on the Landscape 9 (�Sfr Plan. Also, please revise the note to read: All landscaping in the public right-of- way (ROW) and the common open area, Tract A, shall be maintained by the Home Owners Association. Please see the red -lined plan. Number: 206 Created: 1/10/2008 [1/10/08] Please capitalize the word City in NOTES #14 on the Landscape Plan. rv� This will make the reference to the City Forester consistent with all the other references. Please see the red -lined plan. Number: 207 Created:1/10/2008 [1/10/08] There are now 14 Shademaster Honeylocust trees shown on the Landscape Plan, which is nice. On all previous plans there were 12 Honeylocust. The 2 new ones are down near the south end of Broadwing Road. The only issue 1141- �r�� with this is that Section 3.2.1(D)(3) - Minimum Species Diversity of the Land Use Code limits the number of any one species of tree on the plan to 15% if there are 60 or more trees. In this case there are 84 trees on the plan and 15% of that would be 12 trees. Please change out 2 of the Honeylocust to 1 more American Linden and 1 more Hackberry; or, show 2 more Pine trees (Austrian and/or Ponderosa) instead of 2 Honeylocust. However, Pine trees are not appropriate in the parkway in a street ROW.
