The Choice Center Mixed -Use Redevelopment (CC) project encompasses 10.49 acres and will
be a mixed -use development. When completely constructed, CC will contain 283 units of student
housing and 46,000 square feet of retail space.
The CC anticipates constructing the new residential buildings, retail buildings, and rehabbing the
existing retail buildings in two phases of construction. When complete, the development
anticipates a total of 262,700 square feet of residential space and 46,000 square feet of retail
space. The proposed residential space targets undergraduate and graduate Colorado State
University (CSU) students.
Concurrent with the city approval process for this project, the developer is seeking CLOMR
approval from FEMA to! mitigate the current FEMA Floodplain issues affecting the property
(See sheet 6 of 14 for the current FEMA Floodway/Floodplain boundaries). The developer and
its consultant, Nolte Associates, are working closely with city staff to allow for the mitigation
construction to occur prior to the site work associated with the development.
The aforementioned improvements will be constructed in two phases.
_ Phase l: This project's first phase will include construction of the four story student
housing (i.e., Building 1), the south parking lot, and the north parking lot. Additionally,
the existing retail located adjacent to the north of Stuart Street will be razed and replaced
with student housing and retail space (i.e., Building 2).
Phase ll: The existing retail buildings that are located north of the existing Tire Center
will be rehabbed. Each building currently has a 60 foot depth. The developer plans to
increase the depth to 90 feet by adding 30 feet to the east side of each building.
.A
The existing local developed runoff from Building 4 (See sheet 6 of 14), which is the
northernmost retail building (1635 to 1681 South College Avenue), drains both east and west.
The roof drains along the rear of the building (i.e., west side) discharge onto the existing asphalt
(to remain) and then into three area inlets (to remain) behind the building. The roof drains along
the front of the building discharge onto the existing asphalt parking lot and combine with the
runoff from the parking area. These flows then drain north and into the Chuck',E. Cheese parking
lot along grades averaging 0.60%.
The developed runoff from Building 3, which is the retail building south of Building 4 (1701 to
1739 South College Avenue), drains to the east and west. The roof drains along the rear of the
building (i.e., west side) discharge onto the existing asphalt and then into three area inlets behind
the building (i.e., one at each rear corner and a third behind the building). Some of the runoff that
drains to the rear of the building appears to sheet flow across the asphalt and flow to the
southwest where it combines with the runoff from the now vacant Johnson Center Mobile Home
Park site. The roof drains along the front of the building discharge onto the existing asphalt
parking lot and combine with the runoff from the parking area. These flows then drain south and
out into College Avenue along grades averaging 0.80%.
The on -site soils consist of Altvan-Santana loams, 0 to 3 percent slopes; Altvan-Santana loams, 3
to 9 percent slopes; Fort Collins Loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes; and Nunn loam, wet, 1 to 3 percent
slopes (Refer to Appendix C for a copy of the NRCS soils map). All but the Nunn clay loam,
which is a NRCS Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG) `C' soil, are a part of NRCS HSG `B'.
Descriptions of each soil type follow:
Group B: Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained soils that
have moderately fine texture to moderately course texture. These soils have a moderate
rate of water transmission.
Group C: These soils have a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained soils that
have moderately fine texture to deeply course texture. These soils have a slow rate of
water transmission. At this time, we do not have a soils report; therefore, we cannot
comment on the local groundwater conditions or specific characteristics of the existing
soils.
Spring Creek is the proximate major drainage way to the project site. It is located directly south
of the project site in Creekside Park.
BACKGROUND
SITE LOCATION
The Choice Center Mixed -Use Redevelopment (CC) is located at 1609, 1635, 1653, 1669, 1681,
1705, 1729, 1733, 1739, 1797 South College Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 and
comprised of the following three parcels: Lot 1B, replat of a portion of Lot 1 of the Spring Court
Subdivision; a portion of Lot 2, Spring Court Subdivision; and a portion of Lot 3, Fox Shopping
Center Subdivision
The subject site is located in the Northeast Quarter of Section 23, Township 7 North, Range 69
West of the 6"' P.M., City of Fort Collins, County of Larimer, State of Colorado.
CC is bordered to the north by existing development (i.e., A portion of Lot 3, Fox Center
Shopping Center Subdivision and Lot 2, Fox Shopping Center Subdivision); to the south by
Creekside Park; to the east by College Avenue (U.S. Highway 287); and to the west by the
Colorado and Southern railroad tracks.
EXISTING SITE DESCRIPTION
The subject property is comprised of f 10.49 acres. (Excel sheet shows 10.40 acres)
The subject property, which is currently divided into three parcels, is a mix of existing retail, a
storage facility and car wash, the former Johnson Center Mobile Home Park site (now vacant),
and a vacant lot north of Creekside Park.
Parcel 1 is currently developed with an existing carwash and storage facility. Both will be razed.
The existing grade varies between 2.00% and 7.00%.
The existing local developed runoff drains into several existing area inlets. This storm
infrastructure will be abandoned with the proposed redevelopment.
Parcel 2 is currently vacant except for a small asphalt area along the west property line. The
existing runoff generally sheet flows to the east along grades of less than 1.00%.
Parcel 3: is comprised of several developed and undeveloped areas. The vacant portion of Parcel
3 was the Johnson Center Mobile Home Park. It was destroyed on the night of July 28ffi, 1997
during a storm event that dropped approximately 14.5 inches of rain over thirty-one hours in
parts of Fort Collins. The resulting flooding conditions caused over 200 million dollars in
damage across the city.
The vacant area is comprised of existing mature trees, native grasses, weeds, and several un-
vegetated areas. The northernmost region of this area is paved where it connects to the
neighboring property.
The existing local developed runoff generally flows to the south-southeast along grades varying
between 0.50% and 5.00%. An isolated low point prevents some surface runoff from reaching
the existing inlet that drains directly into the existing 48" RCP on the north side of Stuart Street.
PE CERTIFICATION AND SEAL
This report for the preliminary design of the Choice Center Mixed -Use Redevelopment was
prepared by me or under my direct supervision in accordance with the provisions of the City of
Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria and Construction Standards. I understand that the
City of Fort Collins and its designated city authority do not and will not assume liability for
drainage facilities designed by others.
