Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Please include the detention pond summary table and the basin summary table on the drainage plan. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: The inlet on the east parking lot will not allow water to enter the detention pond up to the 100-year water surface elevation. Water needs to be able to drain into the pond for the duration of the 100-year storm. Another inlet set at the 100-year water surface elevation along the parking lot gutter would resolve this issue. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Drainage details are needed in the plan set. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Please use detail D-10 of the City's standard Stormwater details for the sidewalk culvert at the pond outfall. A concrete channel detail is also needed for this outfall.

These easements will need to be vacated. rate would be between 19-21 Ibs/PLS and would ideally be drill seeded between 1/4 - 1/2" deep. Also, the use of a Kentucky Bluegrass hybrid (which ultimately uses less water and is more drought tolerant) is also recommended. Thanks!

Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 11/17/2011 11/17/2011: This comment is offered. At the SE area of the site the curb that runs east and west by 6 parking places is very close to 4 walnut trees that are shown to be retained. Standard curb with grading will likely damage the root system. The curb near these trees needs further discussion and review because of how close it is to the trees. Forestry is available to meet on site to review and discuss. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 11/17/2011 11/17/2011: Fallgold Ash is used as a street tree. This species is not on the City street tree list. Select a species from the street tree list such as Skyline Honeylocust or Bur Oak to replace Fallgold Ash. Maximize use of canopy shade trees in the parkway with ornamental trees being used near street lights. Ornamental trees should be at least 15 feet from street lights, and shade trees 40 feet. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 11/1712011 11117/2011: This comment is offered: In the plant list these three ornamental trees are listed at #15 container. As to code they should be specified as 1.5 inch caliper BB. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 11/17/2011 11/17/2011: There is a nice hedge located along the east boundary of the east most house on the south side of Summer Street. It appears to be on the property line. Will it be retained or impacted by the proposed construction. It provides a nice vegetative barrier between the properties.

There is a $250 processing fee (TDRF) for each easement dedication and the applicant is responsible for the recording fees for each document. The recording fees typically are between $31 and $51 per document, the final amount being dependent on the number of pages each document is. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Development Agreement I need the information for development agreement sheet filled out and returned so I can start working on getting a draft development agreement together. Comment Number: 8 11/15/2011: Existing plat Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 Assuming that the property is platted and that plat is the Lake Street Townhomes, then although the right-of-way was vacated by Ordinance #72, 1995 all the easements that were platted on that plat still exist and should be shown on these plans. Other than the utility easements that will be running under the proposed building I don't think the existing easements will hurt anything you have proposed. It does seem you should vacate the easements that will be under the building. The processing fees for an easement vacation are $400 (TDRF) per each type of vacation. I will need the application fee and a drawing showing (a marked up plat will do.for now) showing the area(s) proposed for vacation in order to route the request out to the utilities. Once we know it is okay to vacate the utility easement I will need a legal description prepared by a licensed surveyor and sketch describing and showing the area being vacated. The vacation resolution can be approved administratively and the applicant is responsible for the filing fees to record the document.

Crested Wheatgrass is an introduced species and is less desirable in the City. Seeding Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 On the Landscape Plan, the note indicates that nuisance trees are to be removed at the owner's option. Shouldn't these trees be removed as a matter of course? Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 On the architectural character elevations, the color of the split -face c.mu. should be further defined as "earthtone" is vague. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 On the architectural character elevations, there is no color specified for the detention pond retaining wall at building foundation. This color should be specified and Staff recommends that it be a darker tone than the building field. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 On the Lighting Plan, there are ten locations where the foot-candle measurement, 20 feet west of the property line, are greater than one -tenth. This should be addressed as the two adjoining properties are residential. Please consider moving the fixtures further east and/or providing an automatic dimmer switch to lower the foot-candles after 10:00 p.m. Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Sheri Langenberger, 970.221.6573, slangenbergercD_fcgov.com Topic: Construction Drawings Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Cover Sheet Assuming that this property is platted the legal description on the cover should start with Lake Street Townhome P.U.D, being a tract ...

Final limits are to be determined in the field by the City Engineering Inspector. All repairs to be in accordance with City street repair standards. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Sheet C.3 -may want to add a note regarding the potential demolition of the sidewalk west of the site on the south side of Summer Street. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 11/15/2011 11/15/2011: Sheet C.6 -on the Summer Street connection enlargement you are showing the addition of 3.45 feet to the existing sidewalk. Standards allow for a minimum of 4 foot in width to be added, so this needs to be changed to show that 4 feet is being added not 3.45. Also adding to the sidewalk can only be done if the existing sidewalk is in good condition, so the following note needs to be added to this detail. Four feet of additional sidewalk shall be added to this existing sidewalk between the property line and the driveway to the east providing that the existing sidewalk is deemed in good shape by the City Engineering Inspector. If the City Engineering Inspector deems the existing sidewalk needs to be repaired or replaced due to damage, heaving, and/ or breakage the existing curb, gutter, and sidewalk shall be replaced with a vertical curb and 6 foot minimum sidewalk. If this occurs the curb transition shall move west to the most western curb panel being replaced.

Mr. Kessler has contacted the Current Planning Department and is emphatic that the trash enclosure be shifted north. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 Has any further consideration been given to the design of the operable gate? Since this is Final Plan, the design of the gate should be finalized and shown on the site plan as a detail. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 Signs indicating Mosque Only or No Public Parking should be installed in the parking lot south of the gate. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 11/16/2011 On the Landscape Plan, it is unclear whether or not any significant trees are to be removed. Staff is concerned about the removal of the 24-inch Walnut. If so, please indicate and then also indicate how and where these trees are to be mitigated per Section 3.2.1(F).
