Prospect is an arterial street at this location. Current proposal shows the parking space to be setback only 10 ft. Adjust vehicle spaces to meet the 15' setback. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 02/08/2012 LUC 3.5.3(B)(1) At least one (1) main entrance of any commercial building shall face and open directly onto a connecting walkway with pedestrian frontage. The entrance along Overland Trail is unclear if it is a main entrance. A double door transparent entry similar to that on the east side of the building will give indication that this is a primary entry. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 02/08/2012 LUC 3.2.5 (B)(4) Trash/Recycling enclosures shall be designed to allow walk-in access without opening the main service gate. Current proposed trash/recycling enclosure does not have a walk-in access. Adjust trash/recycling enclosure to have walk-in access. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 02/08/2012 On sheet C1.0 in the Site Data Table, the off street parking requirement is stated as 611000 sq ft, this is incorrect. The parking requirement for this use is 4/1000 sq ft. Make this correction on the sheet. The total 12 parking spaces are in compliance.

Department: Forestry Contact: Tim Buchanan, 970-221-6361, tbuchananAfcoov.com Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 Prospect 7-Eleven Forestry Comments 2-15-12 The following Forestry comments are offered. 1. Ornamental trees are appropriately used as street tree along Overland trail because of the overhead utility lines. Multi -stem ornamental ginnala maples are proposed for use as street trees in this section of the parkway along Overland Trail. The City Forester is asking that these relatively low and horizontal growing maples be changed to a species that can be readily trained to a single stem with higher crown, and with a crown form that is not too wide horizontally for a parkway situation. The City Forester is recommending that the applicant consider using Ivory Silk Tree Lilac as a suitable replacement for mufti -stem Ginnala maple. 2. There is a street light on the signal pole at the comer. The first Accolade Elm used as a street tree along West Prospect will need to be 40 feet from the street light. This appears to require a reduction from three too two Accolade Elm. 3. The south most ornamental street tree that is south of the curb along Overland Trail needs to be 15 feet from the street light. By moving it further to north to achieve this distance standard its placement becomes quite close to the curb cut. Review if this location meets the 8 foot from curb cut separation standard for tree placement. 4. Hillspire Juniper should be listed as a tree and specified and 6 feet B&B 5. All shrubs should be specked as 5 gallon. 6. Please add these landscape notes. • The soil in all landscape areas, including parkways and medians, shall be thoroughly loosened to a depth of not less than eight (8) inches and soil amendment shall be thoroughly incorporated into the soil of all landscape areas to a depth of at least six (6) inches by tilling, discing or other suitable method, at a rate of at least three (3) cubic yards of soil amendment per one thousand (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 Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Marc Virata, 970-221-6567, mvirataAfcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: Tying with the last sentence of the previous comment, I'm wondering if some sort of maintenance discussion should take place between the development and the property to the south regarding what may become a "no man's land" from what apparently appears to be abutting property of this development, but per the drawings are abutting the property owner to the south. There implies to be a defined edge from the sidewalk culvert south, but with the property line apparently a few feet north, will this small existing turf area become neglected? Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02115/2012: A variance request(s) should be provided for driveway access spacing requirements on both Prospect Road and Overland Trail per Chapter 7 of LCUASS which should then be incorporated into the overall variance request letter for overall evaluation. Please ensure that the criteria in 1.9.4A.2 of LCUASS is utilized in preparing the requerst. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: Please provide a compilation of the letters from the utility providers on the acceptability of the reduced utility easements on Prospect Road and Overland Trail. Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: The legal description should on all the documents should be "The Elliott - Miller Foothills West Subdivision, Third Filing". Perhaps underneath the title of Prospect 7-Eleven Store No. 35506, the description should then be "Being The Elliott - Miller Foothills West Subdivision, Third Filing".

More specifically, indicate what the sidewalk along Prospect Road ties into. As it would seem the sidewalk would not tie into anything, a Type III barricade should be provided to provide the visual cue of the sidewalk's termination. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: The sidewalk culvert proposed along Overland Trail will need to be detailed out. Our standard sidewalk culvert detail is attached. Note that the detail prescribes additional widening of the sidewalk for more of a shy distance from the culvert. (The grading plan species the use of LCUASS detail 709 for drainage under the sidewalk at a different location, ironically with this being proposed on private property, the usage of the detail is fine. Note however that usage of this detail shouldn't be done in right-of-way and we have separate details such as the one attached.) Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: Existing curb and gutter conditions couldn't be readily viewed due to snow. Please note that the limits of curb and gutter removal prescribed on the construction drawings are predicated on the existing curb and gutter portions proposed to remain are not damaged. Note #42 on the General Notes applies such that the limits of curb and gutter removal may be required to be expanded depending on the condition found during construction and up to prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: We'll need further construction drawing details at the time of final plan. The calling out of detail numbers on the grading plan is fine, but the actual details themselves should be provided at the end of the plan set. Topic: General Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 02/15/2012 02/15/2012: The construction plan specifies a Telephone pedestal that is to remain near the access ramp on at the corner of Prospect Road and Overland Trail. Is this meaning an above ground raised pedestal? I wasn't able to locate an above ground pedestal (though this may have been impacted by snow surrounding the site). Please note that if this a raised above ground pedestal, this is required to be either relocated outside of the parkway between the sidewalk and street (as the Comcast pedestal on the northeast corner of the site is shown), or be flush with the finished grade of the parkway (which I suspect is the current condition.) With the representation that there is a pedestal that's apparently in the right-of-way but not abutting this property, immediately south along Overland Trail, it would be ideal if this pedestal could also be relocated at this time.
