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.
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).
3. The storm sewer outfall system is in place.
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.
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.
TRANSPORTATION PLANNING
Matthew Wempe, (970)221-2643, mwempe .fcgov.com
1. It is my understanding that the site plan is already changing from what was submitted. My
comments are general guides.
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.
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.
City of
Fort Collins
5. Any public improvements must be designed and built in accordance with the Larimer County Urban
Area Street Standards (LCUASS).
6. This project is responsible for dedicating any right-of-way and easements necessary to serve this
project.
7. A repay on this project maybe due for Timberline, please contact Matt Baker at 970-221-6605.
8. Utility plans and a development agreement will be required for this project.
9. A Development Construction Permit (DCP) must obtained prior to starting any work on the site.
10. Parking stall widths, depths and drive aisles must be designed in accordance with Chapter 19 of
LCUASS.
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.

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.
