Ft. Collins, Colorado
IV. SUMMARY & CONCLUSIONS
In summary, the Project will make use of existing grades to the greatest extent
Possible, minimize impacts to On -Site environmental amenities, provide.
conveyance of On- and Off -Site storm flows through the Site, and provide water
quality and storm detention in manner consistent with Best Management
Practices. Under the Plan, no adverse impacts to the local community or
environment are expected.

Q3
C. Water Quality & Detention
As significant landscaping is programmed, and where the total impervious
area.is not increased to or above 5,000 s.f., no water quality or detention is
proposed. It is expected that downstream natural process will continue to
function such that any residuals will be mitigated.
D. Erosion Control
Erosion control will be provided and will be consistent with the standard
practice. More specifically, BMPs will be installed as appropriate to
minimize erosion due to aeolian and surface runoff affects. BMPs during
construction may include tracking pads, silt fencing, inlet protection,
revegetation, and contour roughening. Post -Construction BMPs may
vegetation, and proper maintenance of open areas.

III. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN ā PROPOSED CONDITIONS
The general concept for drainage includes the use of surface and subsurface
stormwater conveyance systems, including curb & gutter, swales, detention ponds,
and storm sewers at select locations, such that both aesthetics and economy are
maintained.
A. Design Criteria
Drainage design and computations are based on the City's criteria, as well
as Urban Drainage & Flood Control District's Drainage Criteria Manuals.
Minor design storms for residential systems shall be based on the local 2-
year event, while the major design storm shall be based on the 100-year
recurrence storm interval. Detention releases from On -Site ponds shall be
based on the 5-year historic event.
Where the site will not increase the level of impermeability above 5,000
square feet, no detention or water quality systems are proposed. Further
drainage patterns will remain consistent as existing conditions.
B. Sub -Basin Descriptions
For purposes of hydrologic analysis, Basin OS-1 (On -Site) is further
subdivided into four (82) sub -basins, with each based on specific
topographic characteristics.
Basin I
Being approximately 0.02 acres and located on the west 1/8 of the
site, stormwater is routed west to an alley where it conveyed to the
Elm Street gutter systems and ultimately to the Cache La Poudre
River. Storm runoff is considered to be minimal under developed,
and no adverse impact due to drainage is expected for on- or off -
site properties along the drainage paths to Elm Street and beyond.
Basin 2
Being 0.38 acres and located on the east 7/8 of the site, stormwater
is routed east to the Wood Street gutter system where it conveyed
south to the Elm Street gutter systems and ultimately to the Cache
La Poudre River. Storm runoff is considered to be minimal under
developed, and no adverse impacts are expected for on- or off -site
properties along the drainage paths to Elm Street and beyond.

II. DRAINAGE BASINS
This section discusses existing and proposed, developed basin hydrology. Time
of concentration and runoff calculations performed in analyzing drainage under
both conditions are based on the 2003 City of Thornton Standards and
Specifications for the Design and Construction of Public Improvements
(TSSDCPI, 03).
A. Major Basin Description ā Existing Conditions
The Site is in unincorporated Adams County, and the Developer ultimately
proposes to annex the subject area to the City of Thornton. Based on the
Adams County, Colorado Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Community
Panel Number 08001 C0035G (8/95), the Site is not influenced by
floodplains (see attached). The nearest region which may be inundated by
a 100-year flood event would be to the north of the site in Todd Creek and
its tributaries. Todd Creek is a tributary of the South Platte River. Area's
identified as being inundated by a 100-year flood are approximately 1000
feet away from the Site. Due to the nature of the Site, no wetlands are
identified On -Site.
B. Sub -Basin Description ā Existing Condition
Sub -basins which influence the Site include, the Site' itself, property to the
west, the neighboring roadways (140`h Avenue, 144`h Avenue, and Holly
Street).
Sub -Basin OS-1
Sub -Basin OS-1 is the approximate northern 3/4 of the Site. This
region is approximately 128.2 acres which is currently used for
agriculture. In its current condition, existing grade is split towards
the north by the ridge running through the site. The slope of the
northern region is roughly a 5 percent grade to the north. The
historic outfall for the north On -Site area is Todd Creek.
Sub -Basin OS-2
Sub -Basin OS-2 is the approximate southern 1/4 of the Site. This
region is approximately 31.4 acres which is currently used for
agriculture. In its current condition, existing grade is split towards
the south by the ridge running through the site. The slope of the
southern region is roughly an 8 percent grade to the south. The
historic outfall for the southern On -Site area is Brantner Gulch.

Iā¢ GENERAL LOCATION & PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This section contains information relative to Project location and general
description of facilities and intent.
A. Project Location
The Project Site is located in the NW %a of Section 11, Township 1 North,
Range 69 West of the 6`h P.M., and is currently within City of Ft. Collins
city limits and Larimer County, Colorado. The Developer ultimately
proposes to redevelop the subject site such that demolition of the existing
residence will lead to the construction of 2 duplexes on site. The Project
area occupies approximately 0.40 acres. The Site is bounded on the north
and south by residential lots, on the east by Wood Street and on the west
by an alley. A Project Vicinity map and Drainage Plan are included with
this Report.
B. Project Plan & Phasing
The Project Plan demolition of the existing residence and replacement
with two duplexes, as well as landscape improvements and water/sewer
services. The Developer intends to utilize the natural grade and terrain to
facilitate adequate drainage of stormwater to the two proposed drainage
basins located on the east and west sides of the property. The Project will
be constructed in 1 phase.
C. Site Features, Existing Land Use & Constraints
The Site is presently zoned as residential and will remain as such. In its
current condition, existing grade is split towards the east and west, with
roughly a 1 to 6 percent grades on site. The historic outfall for the site is
the Cache La Poudre River approximately '/a miles to the northeast.
D. Existing Easements & Right -of -Way
Existing easements and ROWS within subject area include the Wood
Street ROW and standard utility easements for services.
E. Floodplains, Groundwater & Wetland Areas
Based on review of the Larimer County, Colorado Flood Insurance Rate
Map (FIRM) Community Panel Number 08001 C0035G (8/95), the Site is
not influenced by floodplains. Further, no wetlands are identified On -Site.
While no current geotechnical study is provided with this Project, soils in
the area are considered to be moderate to well draining of the Ulm soils
class. No groundwater is anticipated, but should be verified prior to
construction of the units as basements are programmed for the project.
