Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 09/18/2013 09/18/2013: It appears the use of ornamental trees by the cross walk areas will cause a site distance problem. Provide for site visibility at these locations. It may not be feasible to use ornamental trees at these locations due to impact on visibility. Review and make appropriate changes. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 09/18/2013 09/18/2013: Contact the City Forester for an on -site meeting to review existing trees and impact from construction. Existing trees will need to be identified as to species, size, condition, retain or remove and mitigation for significant trees to remove. Existing trees should be numbered and the information provided in a table on the landscape plan. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 09/18/2013 09/18/2013: Place the tree protection specifications found in LUC 3.2.1 G 1-2 and 4-7 on the landscape plan. The notes used by the consultant for tree protection fencing are excellent and can be used in place of the LUC specification for fencing. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 09/18/2013 09/18/2013: Please add the following street tree planting notes: Street Trees shall be supplied and planted by the developer using a qualified landscape contractor.

If elevations are going to be required, they shouldn't be so detailed, otherwise any deviation for any specific building permit will require an amendment to the plan.

Fences aren't always installed directly on the property line, and the City's not going to get involved in enforcing potential disputes about whether or not a fence is installed in the right location, especially since our code doesn't require fences to be installed on lot lines.

Topic: Variance Request Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: Traffic Operations is in agreement with the sight distance variance request with one requested revision. The variance needs to provide that entering/exiting motorists can see each other at the 7.5 second distance of 555 feet. If that distance is not visible then the variance should request and validate a distance that is visible without necessitating the use of the TWLTL.

Since then Transfort has begun planning service changes for 2014 which will provide service to this site. Therefore, this development will need to build the bus stop pad requested in initially. The bus stop needs to be shown on all plan sets, it shall be either within the ROW or a Transit Easement if outside of the public ROW. The pad shall have a 5' wide connection to the curb and adjacent sidewalk and a bus stop concrete pad of at least 20' wide by 12' deep shall be provided adjacent to the sidewalk and curb. If you need assistance designing such pad please feel free to contact me.

Topic: Traffic Impact Study Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: The TIS will need to be revised as it doesn't appear that a scoping session was conducted before the preparation of the TIS. The TIS does not follow city requirements outlined in Chapter 4 of the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS). Aspects that are missing or in error are: No scoping sheet (Attachment A) provided in the appendix; Typical short term time frame is 5 years from proposal; TIS does not review the Lemay and Drake intersection; No discussion about concerns raised at the neighborhood meeting; No alternative modes review, analysis or discussion as required by City codes; Notables providing the Existing, Background and Total LOS findings from the appendices; The south parking lot access to Lemay was not evaluated nor any discussion provided concerning it's offset with Strachan Dr; What are the LOS's the project needs to adhere to per the Structure plan; These things and others are typically covered in the scoping session or found in Chapter 4 of the LCUASS. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: Traffic agrees with the conclusion in the paragraph on sight distance at the Drake Rd access but the sight distance needs to also be reviewed for not using the two-way left turn lane as motorists will not see a need to use the turn lane if they do not see traffic coming from the east and pull out into the west bound travel lane thinking it was clear to do so. Please use the latest edition of the AASHTO green book for the applicable sight distance requirements instead of those found in the LCUASS: Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: The TIS needs to review the Lemay and Drake intersection as well as the south access from the church parking lot, unless the development is proposing to restrict access to the south church access on Lemay. If so discussion of the restriction and it's planned effectiveness need to be provided. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: The TIS should provide an estimate of expected delay to exiting left turning traffic from each access point onto Drake and onto Lemay. Excess delays may need to require additional lanes for right and left turning traffic. 09/19/2013: Please add the reception number for the 40' Access & Emergency Access Easement. See redlines.

In looking at the Lot Typicals, it appears that the request would only apply to front porches and side -loaded garages and not the "living area portion of the house." Please clarify. Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: For the Modification, it would be helpful to key the Lot Typicals to the four elevation types. Also, the fourth Lot Typical is missing the front setback dimensions. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 09/17/2013 09/17/2013: For the Modification, it would be helpful to indicate the range of proposed porch dimensions. The justification of "equal to or better than..." would be strengthened by indicating that the porches are viable outdoor spaces.
