The fees will be collected at time of issuance of building permits. R. Noted. c. A Transportation Impact Study (TIS), addressing all modes of transportation, is required with your Project Development Plan (PDP) submittal. Please contact Eric Bracke of the Traffic Operations Department at 224-6062 and Tom Reiff of the Transportation Planning Department at 416-2040 to determine what information is needed in the TIS pertaining to Level of Service for vehicle, pedestrian, bicycle and transit modes of transportation. R. Transportation Impact Study provided by Gene Coppola. PAGE 3 August 7, 2001 Project No: 1558-02-01 Re: Mason Street North; Ft. Collins, Colorado Previously Lot 12 and Tract A, Martinez P.U.D. Stormwater Utility a. This site is located within the Old Town Basin, which has a new development fee of $4,150 per acre and is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. The site is in inventory grid #7G. The fees will be collected at time of issuance of building permits. R. Noted. b. The vacation of the existing blanket easement and replacement of a specific 40' - 44' easement is acceptable. R. The existing blanket easement will be vacated in its entirety by virtue of the replat. A specific easement will be dedicated for the existing box culverts which were installed with the Howes Street Outfall project. Widths of the easement will be noted. The easement will be defined to away from the building corners, including the building foundation footing. c. The standard drainage and erosion control reports are required at time of submittal of a request for development review. They must be prepared by a professional engineer registered in the State of Colorado. The imperviousness and outfall system as defined in the original drainage report for Martinez P. U.D. will have to be verified. R. Noted. Imperviousness and outfall system defined in the original drainage report for Martinez P.U.D. has been verified. d. The original design for this development did not include extended detention for water quality, which is now required. R. Noted. Water quality capture volumes will be calculated and documented for this project. There are currently discussions with the Parks Department concerning participation in the wetland expansion being considered by the Parks Department. Therefore, there will be no water quality designs provided with the initial submittal of this project. The drainage report will briefly discuss this issue as well. Poudre Fire Authority a. Fire flows of 1,500 gallons per minute at a residual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch must be provided. R. Noted. The Engineering Company (TEC) has been contacted regarding the preparation of a hydraulic study. This information will be provided.

If the 8" water main is relocated, an acceptable water main loop with adequate hydraulic capacity for fire flows must be provided. R. As we understand it, the existing water line in Cherry Street at the proposed tie-in point, is a 6" water line. We understand that adequate hydraulic capacity is required and must be documented. The Engineering Company (TEC) has been contacted regarding the preparation of a hydraulic study. Improvements recommended by the study to accommodate fire flow requirements, will be provided. d. Provide separate water and sanitary sewer services for the commercial and residential portion of each building. R. Currently, a single sewer service is provided at each building. Currently, a single water service is provided at each building. As we understand the concept and the limits of commercial and residential uses for each building, this request will be accommodated. At this time, we have located the larger water service vaults due to their size and typical coordination and separation requirements. e. Any connections to the 24" or 36" sanitary sewers must beat a manhole. R. Understood. f. Provide 30 ' wide easements for all sanitary sewers. R. 30' easements will be accommodated where possible. Due to the location of the existing 36" sewer line, and the proposed location of the north sides of Buildings B and C, the easement south of the existing sewer line will be accommodated as wide as possible. g. The City's water conservation standards for landscaping and irrigation systems will apply to this project. R. Noted. h. Plant investment fee and water rights will apply to this project. They will be collected at the time of issuance of buildingpermits. R. Noted. August 7, 2001 Project No: 1558-02-01 City of Fort Collins Planning Department P.O. Box 580 Ft. Collins, Colorado 80524 Attn: Mr. Steve Olt Re: Mason Street North; Ft. Collins, Colorado Previously Lot 12 and Tract A, Martinez P.U.D. Dear Steve, This letter is written in response to several of the conceptual review comments presented at the conceptual review meeting on February 26th, 2001 and your written summary of those comments in your letter to Wonderland Hill Development Company dated March 14, 2001. This response focuses primarily on items which relate to fire, engineering, water, wastewater and stormwater issues. Water / Wastewater a. There is an existing water main along the south side of the property in an easement. R. A major portion of the existing 8" water line located along the south side of Lot 12, Martinez P.U.D. will be abandoned due to the placement of additional buildings proposed with this development. A new connection will be provided south to the existing 6" D.I.P. water line located on the south side of Cherry Street. R. The existing 8" water line which was tapped off of the existing 12" water line to the east, will only be salvaged to the extent that a hydrant will be provided on the west side of Mason Court. b. There is an existing 8" sanitary sewer main in the private drive on the northwest side of the westerly building on this proposed plan. There are existing 24" and 36" sewer lines located in the NW/SE portion of Mason Court. R. The westernmost building (Building A) is currently serviced by an existing service off of the private drive just west of Building A. The other two (2) buildings (Buildings B and C) will be serviced at the existing 36" sewer line north of the proposed buildings. At this time, we are proposing tying both services to an existing manhole which was recently installed with the Howes Street Outfall according to the record drawings by ICON Engineering, Inc.; ICON Project No: 98-039-HOW-352; Plan dated 02/99. Internal drops are proposed due to the depth of the existing manhole. 4836 S. College, Suite 12 . Ft. Collins, CO 80525 (970) 226-5334 Fax (970) 282-0311 www.shearengincering.com
