[10/17/08] An analysis needs to take place to quantify all of the flow during a 100-year
event that drains in the road side ditches along Lemay and Lincoln. Conveyance needs to
be provided for these flows either by a storm sewer, swale, or combination of both.

[10/17/08] Quantity detention is required for half of Lemay and Lincoln along the frontage of
the site.
Number: 82 Created: 10/17/2008
[10/17/08] The additional pond volume required from detaining half of the site's frontage
may be difficult to provide. Our calculations in the office show that the pond may be
oversized when using City pond sizing methods. This may help in coming up with the
volume needed to detain half of the site's street frontage.

"employee parking only" or "residential parking only", depending on the building. Add a note
to that effect on the site plan. Per Section 3.2.2(L)(3), the long term parking stalls need to
be 8.5' minimum width, but the plan shows them all to be only 8' wide. 8' is allowed for
compact car stalls in long term parking areas, but no more than 40% of the long term
parking stalls can be compact.

[10/16/08] WATER SUPPLY: Fire hydrants, where required, must be the type approved by
the water district having jurisdiction and the Fire Department. Hydrant spacing and water
flow must meet minimum requirements based on type of occupancy. Minimum flow and
spacing requirements include:
• Commercial, 1,500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced not farther than 300 feet to
the building, on 600-foot centers thereafter

• Residential outside Urban Growth Area, 500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced
not farther than 400 feet to the building, on 800-foot centers thereafter.
These requirements may be modified if buildings are equipped with automatic fire sprinkler
systems. Please note: Thank you for adding the fire hydrant at the southwest corner of the

[10/16/08] REQUIRED ACCESS: Fire access roads (fire lanes) shall be provided for every
facility, building or portion of a building hereafter constructed or moved into or within the
PFA's jurisdiction when any portion of an exterior wall of the first story of the building is
located more than 150 feet from fire apparatus access as measured by an approved route
(from a public street) around the exterior of the building or facility. This fire lane shall be
visible by painting and signage, and maintained unobstructed at all times. In addition to the
design criteria already contained in relevant standards and policies, any new fire lane must
meet the following general requirements:
❑ Be designed as a flat, hard, all-weather driving surface (asphalt or concrete) capable of
supporting fire apparatus weights. Compacted road base shall be used only for temporary
fire lanes or at construction sites.
❑ Have appropriate maintenance agreements that are legally binding and enforceable.
❑ Be designated on the plat as an Emergency Access Easement. (NOTE: Not as part of
a blanket easement.)
❑ Maintain the required minimum width of 20 feet throughout the length of the fire lane
(30 feet for buildings three or more stories in height). Please note: Per my discussion with
Olexa Tkachenko, it is acceptable to have the EAE adjacent to the 4-story building be 26
feet wide.
❑ A fire lane plan shall be submitted for approval prior to installation.
If a fire lane is not provided, all buildings out of access (exceeding the 150-foot requirement)
shall be equipped with an approved automatic fire -sprinkler system. 97UFC 901.2.2.1;

[10/14/08] We are not in the position to agree that right-of-way on Ninth/Lemay can be
vacated by separate document at this time and would defer any decision until the
realignment of Ninth/Lemay has occurred or is far enough in the process such that it's
viewed as certain that this is truly in excess.
Number: 48 Created: 10/15/2008
[10/15/08] The use of building envelopes with blanket easements outside of the building
envelopes isn't recommended. Should the building design evolve such that the need exists
to expand the building(s) beyond the building envelopes, enlarging a building envelope can
only be done via replat. It is suggested that easements are instead defined (which can be
dedicated/vacated via separate document without a replat) without building envelopes
defined.

granting of a left turn access onto the site shall be determined by the City Traffic Engineer at
the time of the construction of the ultimate Lincoln Avenue improvements."

[10/14/08] The plan set needs to establish distinct interim and ultimate designs (with distinct
grading, horizontal control plans, plan and profile sheets and also signing and striping plans)
in order to demonstrate that the design's establishment of interim conditions will work in the
ultimate build -out of Lemay and Lincoln.

[10/15/08] There are some grading concerns along Lemay with first a portion of a retaining

meeting 4:1 slopes for the grading behind the sidewalk.

our minimum requirement is .5%.
Number: 49 Created: 10/15/2008
[10/15/08] There appears to be a fairly narrow median nose created with the protected left
turn pocket (3 feet in width?) which does not meet minimum width requirements. I'd like to
have additional discussion with Traffic Engineering as perhaps the median nose can be
reduced or some other design details can be looked at short of widening the median.

operate acceptably for the vehicles using this entrance. Will delivery trucks have any
issues?

[10/15/08] Figure 19-6 of LCUASS specifies parking stall setbacks off of driveways from the
flowline of the intersecting streets. With Lincoln and Lemay both being arterials and the trip
generation in the TIS specifying 701 daily trips, the parking stalls should be setback at least
75' in both the interim and ultimate condition of the roadways. This doesn't appear to be the
case with either driveway.

(10/14/08] The project needs to look into how pedestrians cross the intersection of Lincoln

[10/15/08] The project will need to fund it's local street obligation for frontage improvements
on Lemay and Lincoln in keeping with the ultimate construction of these roadways. This

that would need to be converted with the ultimate construction (such as driveway
approaches, access ramps, etc.)

[10/9/08] The perennial area adjacent to the bike racks will be quite crowded and I question
how well those plants will survive with the number of people accessing and maneuvering
their bikes in this area. Consider eliminating that perennial bed (at least the eastern edge)
and moving the bike racks closer to the building to free up more room for people to utilize
the sidewalk. As for the bicycle racks a little further south, also consider moving these
closer to the building to free up more space on the sidewalk for pedestrians to pass.
Topic: Elevations
Number: 19 Created: 10/8/2008
[10/8/08] Pre -hearing: The Special Height Review requirements pertain to this project. A
sufficient shadow study was submitted and it appears'that there are no major solar impacts
due to the proposed building height. However, a visual analysis and a summary of
conclusions are also required per Section 3.5.1(G) to complete the Special Height Review.
UPDATE: The applicant submitted the visual analysis and summary of conclusions. The
conclusions drawn are acceptable and there appears to be no major visual impacts with this
proposal. The dates and times of the shadow analysis should be changed to the longest
shadow day and times: December 22 at gam and 3pm, the day when the sun rises and sets
