3. On the plan provided you show Joseph Allen Drive as having 70 feet of row. This maybe
necessary at the intersection with Drake Road to accommodate all movements and vehicle
types, but the existing street has 63 feet of row and I would expect that the x-section of the
street along this property would remain the same (other than the bump -ins which would be
accommodated within that width).
Response: The right-of-way provided along the extended stretch of Joseph Allen Drive has been changed to 63.
4. 1 don't know that any are actually proposed but any pedestrian crossing not at street
intersections need to meet Traffic Operations criteria for a midblock crossing in order for it to be
approved.
Response: There are pedestrian crossings shown for Joseph Allen Drive on the preliminary plans. Location of
these crossings is preliminary only and subject to change based upon the location of the community park to be
located on the west side of Joseph Allen Drive. It is anticipated that all pedestrian crossings that do not occur at
intersections will need to meet mid -block crossing design requirements.

11/29/2011: If the internal street is a public street or a private street —
A knuckle needs to be provided at the 90 turn.
The driveway spacing and offset driveways need to meet LCUASS.
Parking setbacks apply and it looks like there are at least a couple of parking lots that this
would apply to.

degree turn at this point in time.

Comment Originated: 11/29/2011
1. You are showing this existing street to have inset parking on the south side of the street.
The street already exists without this condition. It maybe possible to reconstruct the street so
that inset parking is provided. To do so may require additional inlets in order to accommodate
the grade changes and drainage changes due to the relocation of the curb line into the existing
street.
Response: Charles Brockman Drive now shows no additional parking along the southern edge. Therefore, the
existing condition along Charles Brockman Drive will remain as -is and will not require additional inlets or grading
reconfigurations.
2. You are not showing the existing driveway on the north side of this street. The proposed
street/ street like private drive needs to align with this existing driveway or be off -set from that
driveway by 150 feet. The same spacing is needed to the driveway to the west and then from
the street intersection even further west.
Response: The existing driveway into the police station is now shown on our plans for reference; however, our site
plan no longer shows a connection to Charles Brockman Drive, therefore, alignment with the driveway into the
police station is no longer a concern.

Comment Originated: 11/29/2011
1. The existing portion of Joseph Allen Drive that is constructed is not constructed with
bump -ins. The plan you submitted shows the inclusion of bump -ins along the frontage of this
property. This is something that is possible, but will need to look at how the transition from no
bump -ins to bump -ins will occur. This may mean that some reconstruction of some of the
existing curb and gutter is needed. Please be aware that it is a bit more work to design a
street with bump -in since in most situations additional inlets and grade changes are needed to
accommodate the design.
Response: Noted; the design plans for Joseph Allen Drive no longer show or call for "bump -ins".
2. To design the bump -in locations on this street maybe a bit tricky as typically bump -ins are
only provided at driveway, intersection locations and midblock crossings. Since we do not
know where the streets to the west will be proposed this creates a bit of a quandary that will
need to be discussed and looked at.
Response: Noted; the design plans for Joseph Allen Drive no longer show or call for "bump -ins".

11/29/2011: It is unclear what the intention for the intemal.streets/ drives are. The plan labels
the main internal connections as Private Street, but also identifies the area as row. There are
probably several options for these drives — as I identify them out the use of them may also
depend on whether or not the option meets other code requirements.
Private Street — this is a street that is a separate tract not dedicated row, but the street is design
to LCUASS standards (appearance, width, depth and construction). The tract would be public
access, emergency access, drainage and utility easements. The private street is to be
maintained by the development.
Street like private drive — this is a private driveway that would need to meet the criteria within
the code for a street like private drive. The area under the street like private drive would be a
public access, emergency access, drainage and utility easement. The street like private drive
is to be maintained by the development.
Public Street — this is a public street, designed and built to LCUASS. Upon completion and
acceptance the roadway will be maintained by the city after the warranty period.
Response: Our intent is to provide and design a "street -like private drive" for the main roadway through the site.
The main roadway uses the LCUASS Local Street section as a template (with some modifications — see the typical
cross-section and Poudre Fire Authority requirements for a fire lane.) There will be public access, emergency
access, drainage, and utility easements dedicated along this main roadway as indicated in the Preliminary Utility
Plans submitted.

You must have at least three (3) distinctively different building designs for this project. Along
East Drake Road and South Timberline Road and including the private drives, you can not have
the same two building designs next to each other. The buildings should very in footprint size,
shape, elevations etc. Also, to meet this standard, simply switching out different combinations
of the same features is inadequate. Please see LUC 4.6(E)(b) for details. The elevations
provided do not meet this requirement.
Response: The elevations have been revised to meet LUC 4.6(E)(b). The architecture has a Craftsman theme, and
includes (3) building types that vary in footprint size, shape and elevation. No more than two buildings with the
same style will occur next to each other. Each craftsman style will include varied materials, balcony designs, and
roof detailing while maintaining a common massing and theme.

According to the Spring Creek Farms North Overall Development Plan of record, the parcel in
question is 17.4 gross acres, not 15.85 acres. This project will be required to comply with the
mix of housing types standard set forth in 4.6(D)(2). Joseph Allen Drive can not be a separately
platted project.
Response: The project will have two housing types. Outlot A from the Spring Creek Farms North Plat will be
subdivided for this project and right-of-way will be dedicated for Joseph Allen Drive with the plat. The remaining
site acreage for this site will be 16.01 acres.
