Yours Truly, 40be &w Steve Olt City Planner cc: Susan Joy J*R Engineering Current Planning file #9-08 Page 6 .- • Number: 3 Created: 4/ 11/2008 [4/ 11 /08] 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. 97UFC 901.2.2.2 Number: 4 Created: 4/ 11 /2008 [4/ 11/08] ADDRESS NUMERALS: Address numerals shall be visible from the street fronting the property, and posted with a minimum of 6 inch numerals on a contrasting background. (Bronze numerals, on brown brick are not acceptable). 97UFC9O1.4.4 Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Stormwater Number: 25 Created: 4/ 18/2008 [4/ 18/08] Please provide a note on the grading plan stating that a detailed lot grading plan for Lot 2 will be required before a building permit can be pulled on Lot 2. Also, the proposed grading on Lot 2 can be removed with just the existing grades shown on the plan for now. Number: 26 Created: 4/ 18/2008 [4/ 18/08] The irrigation ditch owners will need to approve any changes made to the ditch. Also, suggest investigating all aspects of the ditch including route, usage, etc. Number: 27 Created: 4/ 18/2008 [4/ 18/08] Even though detention is not required due to the low impervious ratio, drainage can not negatively impact downstream property owners. If additional drainage over existing conditions is being conveyed downstream onto other properties, a drainage easement may be required from those property owners. Another option is to design a small detention area that will reduce the flows to match existing conditions. Page 5 -i Number: 22 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] Any conflicts between 15' Utility Easement adjacent to Kechter Road and 20' Ditch Easement need to be resolved before Light & Power can use the Utility Easement. Fort Collins Light & Power will have to cross the ditch in the 20' easement adjacent to Kechter Road, as well as the ditch in the 10' easement to the north of the existing house. Any ditch crossing issues should be resolved prior to construction by Light & Power. Number: 23 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] There will be no charge to transfer the existing property to Fort Collins L&P since it is an annexation. The new lot to the north of the existing property (Lot 2) will be subject to normal development charges. Number: 24 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] If no utility easement can be obtained from Kingdom Hall to the Thorland Subdivision, L&P will construct the new electric system in the R.O.W. at no additional cost to the applicant. This may create some difficulties to transfer power to properties between Kingdom Hall and the Thorland Subdivision should they be annexed before Kechter Road is improved, and the acquisition of a utility easement would be preferred. Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carie Dann Topic: Fire Number: 2 Created: 4 / 11 / 2008 [4/ 11/08] 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 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 (from a public street) around the exterior of the building or facility. This fire lane shall: ❑ 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. A fire lane plan shall be submitted for approval prior to installation. If a fire lane is not provided, all buildings out of access (exceeding the 150- foot requirement) shall be equipped with an approved automatic fire - sprinkler system. 97UFC 901.2.2.1; 901.3; 901.4.2; 902.2.1 Page 4 Number: 18 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] Just verifying that the 15' UE easement off Kechter Road is starting at the back of the ultimate ROW - the plat looks correct but the dimensioning arrows on sheet 6 of the Utility Plan set start at the existing row. Number: 20 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] This development is responsible for the design and construction of Kechter Road along its frontage plus the design and construction of Sage Creek Road. In lieu of actually designing and constructing these improvements, engineering is agreeable to obligating the owner of the lots to the future improvements at such time the road needs to be built and will place this requirement in the Development Agreement. However, the sidewalk does need to be installed at the ultimate location, per Transportation Planning, and Type III barricades installed at either end. Topic: Plat Number: 15 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] From Technical Services: 1. Boundary closes. 2. Bearing on north line of subdivision does not match Blehm Subdivision or Thorland Annexation No. 1. 3. See typos "unincorporated" and sheet 2 and LS # for sw corner of Section 5, sheet 1 and 2. 4. Please add "ties" for access and utility easement along Kechter Road ROW. 5. The 51' ROW should be "Sage Creek Road". 6. Do we need easements on each side of Sage Creek Road? (Yes, per Engineering, 9 ue's are required on either side) Topic: Utility Plans Number: 19 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] Grading - sheet 7: Off -site grading is shown. Please pull the contours back onto the property or offsite easements will be required. Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Justin Fields Topic: General Number: 21 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] Poudre Valley REA agreed to change current easements to say 'utility easement' instead of 'REA easement.' This may eliminate the need for a separate Fort Collins Light & Power easement along the eastern property line. The 30' REA easement intersecting the property from east to west is not being used by the REA (except for guying an existing pole) and they are willing forfeit that easement (except for guying as required). Please contact Terry Willis at Poudre Valley REA for more details (282-6432).

Said note shall read: Private Conditions, Covenants, and Restrictions (CC&R's), or any other private restrictive covenant imposed on landowners within the development, may not be created or enforced which has the effect of prohibiting or limiting the installation of xeriscape landscaping, solar/photo-voltaic collectors (if mounted flush upon any established roof line), clothes lines (if located in back yards), odor -controlled compost bins, or which has the effect of requiring that a portion of any individual lot be planted in turf grass. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Steve Olt Topic: Subdivision Plat Number: 10 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/081 The 51' right-of-way (ROW) to be dedicated with this plat must be named Sage Creek Road. As other properties to the east redevelop or develop this street could ultimately connect to Sage Creek Road in the Sage Creek development to the east. Number: 11 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] Can the 15' wide utility easement along the north side of Kechter Road be within the existing 20' wide ditch easement? Number: 12 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/081 There is a 10' wide ditch easement running east - west across the property on the south side of the 30' existing REA easement. The easement should be labeled 10' existing ditch easement. Number: 13 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] Tim Varrone of the City's Geographical Information Systems Department indicated that the new lot, the 3.90 acre parcel, will likely receive a new address of 2230 Kechter Road. Number: 14 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] Gene Fischer, the attorney for the New Mercer Ditch Company, indicated that a $500.00 review fee must be paid in advance for storm drainage. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Susan Joy Topic: General Number: 16 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] 9' utility easements are required either side of Sage Creek Road. Number: 17 Created: 4/ 16/2008 [4/ 16/08] Please label Sage Creek Road, all plan sets. Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins Miles and Jennifer Thorland Date: 4/22/2008 4918 Bluestem Court Fort Collins, CO 80525 Staff has reviewed your submittal for THORLAND SUBDIVISION, PROJECT DEVELOPMENT PLAN (PDP) - TYPE 1, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Steve Olt Topic: General Number: 5 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] The applicants have submitted a subdivision plat and utility plans. Are there plans for the required Kechter Road street design? Number: 6 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] Several of the sheets in the utility plan set should be signed by the City's Environmental Planner. Please see the red -lined plans. Number: 7 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] On Sheet 5 of 8 - Existing Conditions and Demolition Plan, please remove the internal solid lines that represent the annexation boundary between the Thorland No. 1 and Thorland No. 2 Annexations. They are not relevant to this plan. Number: 8 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] On Sheet 6 of 8 - Horizontal Control and Overall Utility Plan, the word "field" is misspelled in the label for the future leaching field. Number: 9 Created: 4/ 15/2008 [4/ 15/08] On Sheet 7 of 8 - Grading and Drainage Plan, it appears that there will be some storm water flows that will leave this property and go onto Lot 2, to the east. Will that property owner have to grant a drainage easement on their property for these flows? Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Dana Leavitt Topic: Plat Number: 28 Created: 4 / 22 / 2008 [4/22/081 In order to, promote compliance with Sections 12-120, 12-121 and 12-122 of the City Code related to Resource Conservation, a note must be placed on the PDP Site Plan (when one is submitted, probably with a Building Permit application) and the Subdivision Plat (now) alerting future Page 1
