Glen Schlueter, (970)224-6065, gschlueter(&Jcgov.com
1. A drainage and erosion control report/letter and construction plans are required and must be
prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. In this case, the report is verification
of compliance with the overall drainage study for Rigden Farm. The letter needs to show that the
impervious area is equal to or less than that used in the overall drainage study. Drainage patterns
and flows to the concentration points must also be provided and must show compliance with the
original study. If there are any changes from the original approved system, the design engineer
must show how the changes are to be mitigated. The erosion control security deposit amount
needs to be included in the letter at final compliance.
• Drainage Report and Erosion Control Report will be submitted.
2. Water quality treatment is provided in the original drainage system design; however, onsite
treatment is recommended as described in the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual, Volume 3 —
Best Management Practices (BMPs).
• The Erosion Control Report and plan direct the use of BMPs.
3. The storm sewer outfall system is in place.
• Water quality and detention are provided downstream per the Master Drainage Report.
4. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Foothills Drainage Master
Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria and Construction standards.
• Comments noted.
5. The city wide development fee is $4,420/acre ($0.1015/sq.ft.) for new impervious area over 350
sq.-ft. No fee is charged for existing impervious area, This fee is to be paid at the time each
building permit is issued.
• Comments noted — General contractor will pay at the time they pick up the permit for the building.

1. It is my understanding that the site plan is already changing from what was submitted. My
comments are general guides.
• See the revised Site plan.
2. Code requires a connection from the sidewalk to the front of the building. One way to accomplish
this for both phases would be a sidewalk along the north/south access drive. These can typically
be accommodated in landscape islands, which also provide a buffer.
• See the revised sidewalk locations.
3. Directional ADA ramps would be required at any pedestrian crossing. Stripping is not required in
short distances, though longer distances may require some form.
• See the revised sidewalk locations and proposed ramping.

PLEASE NOTE: These comments essentially duplicate comments I made during the plat project.
1. 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 within Urban Growth Area, 1,000 gpm at 20 psi
residual pressure, spaced not farther than 400 feet to the building, on 800-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: The proposed hydrant location south of Custer Drive and west of the private
drive/EAE is suitable.
2006 Intemational Fire Code 508.1 and Appendix B.
• Comments noted.
2. ADDRESS NUMERALS - Address numerals shall be visible from the street fronting the property,
and posted with a minimum six-inch high numerals on a contrasting background. (Bronze numerals
on brown brick are not acceptable). PLEASE NOTE: The building likely will be addressed off of
Custer Drive. 2006 International Fire Code 505.1
• Please see the proposed location of the address lettering, they are currently shown above the front
entry. I think that they would also be required on the back side, it is requested that the Fire
Department provide a preferred location of where they would like to see them shown. It is requested
that the Addressing for this location be off of Timberline if possible, this was discussed with Carie
Dann via e-mail with Emma on 5-21-09 via e-mail.
3. 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 the facility or 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 around the
exterior of the building or facility. This fire lane shall be visible by painting and signage, and
maintained unobstructed at all times. A fire lane plan shall be submitted for approval prior to
installation. 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.
- Maintain the required minimum width of 20 feet throughout the length of the fire lane (30
feet on at least one long side of the building when the structures is three or more stories in
height).
If the building is equipped throughout with an approved automatic fire -sprinkler system, the
fire code official is authorized to increase the dimension of 150 feet.
PLEASE NOTE: The EAE looks excellent, thank you.

11. The requirement for a connecting sidewalk from the building to the public street without crossing a
drive aisle may change the overall layout of the site and consequently may trigger other
engineering comments. It is suggested that another conceptual review meeting be held so that all
departments may again comment on the layout. It is possible that you could coordinate with
everyone separately but this may be challenging (although not impossible) for you.
• See the attached site plan Chase has revised the Site plan due to this comment, It was shown to the
the planner on June 241h, Emma and Steve felt it was acceptable.

1. Zoned NC.
• Comment noted and understood.
2. Bank is a Type 1 use.
• Comment noted.
3. Maximum number of parking spaces is 3.5/1000 s.f. of floor area, 4000 s.f. bank = 14. It looks like
there are 16 spaces.
• Per the City standard of 3.5/1000 a 4,195 s.f. building could have 14 spaces — because of there is not
any off street parking the number could be increased to 17 (25% increase). After meeting with the
planning staff and providing a ULI (Urban Land Institute) matrix showing that for a building this size
would require parking for 13 customers and 7 employees. At This location Chase will have 14
employees, and we are showing 26 parking spaces, including handicap parking. - We are requesting
an exception or variance for this which has been discussed in our follow up meetings at your office.
4. Minimum building height is 20'. The building shown is less than that.
• Elevations have been revised to be 20' at the parapets as a minimum.
5. Location doesn't comply with the build -to -line standard in 3.5.3. But it looks like one of the
exceptions might apply.
• We have turned the building and the edge of the building is with in 5.69' of the property line,
because of the curving property line and the existing Landscape in Tract 'A', - We are requesting
/ an exception or variance for this which has been discussed in our follow up meetings at your office.
V6. A minimum of one handicapped parking space is required and needs to be an over all width of 16
feet and signed as van accessible, located near the main entrance.
• See the proposed location .
7. Please provide bicycle parking, show location of bike rack and note the number of bikes it will
accommodate.
• See the proposed 3 place Bike Rack .
8. Note trash enclosure placement, ensure that it is of adequate size to also house recyclables,
provide elevation of trash enclosure - materials should match those of the primary building
• See the proposed location and elevations to match the building.
9. Provide a detailed landscape plan which complies with landscape requirements set forth in Article
3.
• See the attached Landscape plan and Details.
10. Please remove actual signage from the building elevations. Only note the location of the signage,
not the actual signs. Also note location of any ground sign on the site plan. All signage will go
through a separate review and permitting process with the Zoning Department.
