5. Glen Schlueter of the Stormwater Utility offered the following comments:
a. This site is in the City's Old Town Drainage Basin. The City-wide
development fee is $3,070 per acre, which is subject to the runoff
coefficient reduction. The fee is to be paid at the time of issuance of a
building permit and it is charged only when there is an increase in
imperviousness greater than 350 square feet.
b. The standard drainage and erosion control reports and constructions
plans are required and they must be prepared by a professional engineer
registered in the State of Colorado. In the Old Town Basin these are
required if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 5,000
square feet.
C. On -site detention is required with a 2-year historic release rate for water
quantity and extended detention is required for water quality treatment.
Parking lot detention is allowed as long as it is not deeper than one (1)
foot. If there is 5,000 square feet or less of new imperviousness then
neither water quantity detention nor water quality extended detention is
required. If there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350
square feet, but less than 5,000 square feet, a grading plan is all that is
required.
d. There are no storm sewers close to this property so the street curb and
gutter is the drainage outfall for this site.
e. If the alley is to be paved the applicant's design engineer will need to
address existing and proposed drainage patterns. The alley paving cannot
have a negative affect on existing properties. However, if the alley
improvements do improve the drainage system then changes in existing
patterns are allowed.
Please contact Glen Schlueter, at 224-6065, if you have questions about these
comments.
6. Marc Virata of the Engineering Department offered the following comments:
a. Street oversizing fees will apply to this development request. The fee for

building permits. Please check with Matt Baker of the Engineering
Department, at 224-6108, for the exact amount of this fee.
b. A Transportation Impact Study (TIS), addressing all modes of
transportation, will be required with your PDP submittal. Please contact
Eric Bracke of the Traffic Operations Department, at 224-6062, and
M
The first step in the City's formal development review process would be a

by the City planner, with the applicant/developer present. This meeting
must occur before any formal submittal of a development plan to the City
for review. Please see Sections 2.2.2(B), (C), & (D) of the LUC for the
neighborhood meeting requirements. The applicant is responsible for
providing the City with a list (on sticky -back labels) of Affected Property
Owners (APO's) within at least 500' of the property in all directions, as set
forth in Section 2.2.6(D) of the LUC. The City will then mail a letter to all
the property owners on the list, using the sticky -back labels provided by
the applicant, notifying them of the upcoming neighborhood meeting. The
City planner will help you schedule the place, date, and time of the
meeting.
