areas - we should know what's going to be planted.

[11/1/07] Site plan needs to show the setback distance from the closest point of the
building on the east side to the property line along Lemay.

I'm not sure what the walk is like in front of the HC parking spaces. Is it level with
the asphalt parking, or is it a raised walk? Each Handicap parking space needs to
have ramped access to the walk if it's a raised walk.
Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Ted Shepard
1. Have you explored the possibility of shared parking with your industrial
neighbor to the west? There is a strong likelihood that industrial employees
and customers will not be using their parking lot on Sunday mornings. If you
were able to secure shared parking, then "future parking" may not be
needed. This would save the church asphalt paving and additional fees to
the Stormwater Utility.
2. Street trees along Lemay, if under the existing overhead transmission line,
may be switched to ornamental versus shade trees.
Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit.
If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this
project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750.
Sincerely:

[11/1/07] Their comment letter (comment #2) indicates that they're submitting a
modification request to the Build -to -line standards of 3.5.3(B)(2). However, Section
4.28(E)(2)(a) exempts this use from having to comply with the requirements of
Section 3.5.3.

[11/1/07] A landscape island in the parking lot directly west of the main building
entrance indicates "6 PCC". However, there is no PCC listed in the Plant List. What
kind of tree is a PCC?

[11/1/07] Street trees are required along Lemay.
Number: 6 Created: 11 /1 /2007
[11/1/07] Parking lot perimeter landscaping and screening along the west lot line
needs to comply with Section 3.2.1(E)(4). I imagine the existing Austrian Pines
make it difficult to add more deciduous trees, but I can't tell from the plan if the
screening is met since the shrub planting area doesn't specify the size and species
of shrubs. The Plant Legend indicates the area to be "proposed shrubs" and the
Plant List only states "Recommended Shrubs". The Plant List will need to include a

[11/9/07] The detention volume calculations are about 20% low compared to
calculations done in our office, about 1.19 ac-ft. Please revise the detention volume
using Fort Collins criteria and spreadsheets, not the Urban Drainage spreadsheet.

[11/9/07] Half of Buckingham Street along the site's frontage should be detained in
the on -site detention pond. Please try to route these flows to the pond. If this is
physically impossible, providing for the extra volume in the pond and not actually
directing the flows there is an option.
Number: 38 Created: 11 /9/2007
[11/9/07] A drainage easement is required for the limits of the detention pond.

[11/7/07] Our records indicate a credit of $450 in TDR fees for the acceptance of a
fee for a modification of standards and a deed of dedication which aren't required.
The credit is based upon a building square footage area of 23,192 as specified on a
revised site plan.

[11/7/07] Technical Services offers the following comments:
1. Boundary closes.
2. Show how street were dedicated -- see redlines.
3. Lot area should be less the 4' of additional right-of-way.
4. Site plan has scanning issues, see redlines.
5. Lemay Avenue should actually be Ninth Street.

[11/7/07] 1 was given a revised site plan which reflects both the building coverage
and building square footage to be 23,192 square feet. The original submittal did not
list a building square footage but noted the building coverage as being 26,522
square feet. Was the revised site plan intended to revise the building coverage
data?

[11/6/07] The cross sections for Lemay show instances where the additional
pavement widening is at less of a cross slope than the existing portion which is of
concern and does not meet standards.
Number: 28 Created: 11 /6/2007
[11/6/07] There does not appear to be any additional shoulder/shy distance from the
defacto bike lane to the roadside ditch in the new design. Lemay appears to have
some unpaved shoulder both north and south of Buckingham (south appears to
have a greater shy distance). Ideally there should be a couple feet of gravel
shoulder shy distance from the ditch for bicyclist safety, especially with the
combination of a transition and limited lighting in the area. Also the 2 feet of gravel
helps for integrity of the pavement section.

[11/6/07] It appears that the Platte River Power Authority would need to be a

[11/6/07] As a heads -up, the local street portion for Lemay Avenue in the ultimate
condition abutting this property we're estimating involves approximately 120' of linear
frontage.
Number: 33 Created: 11/7/2007
[11/7/07] With Technical Services comment #5 on ID #32 that Lemay should be
Ninth Street, the documents should all be revised to reflect Lemay Avenue abutting
the property as in fact being Ninth Street. Please note that my comments had been
referring to the roadway as Lemay.

[11/6/07] Add standard LCUASS details 707 and 1607.
Number: 22 Created: 11 /6/2007
[11/6/07] Please add the preliminary design information for Lemay and Buckingham
done with the Lincoln Park project onto the construction plan set (as was done on
the site plan). This information isn't as necessary on the site plan, but should be
shown on the construction plan set as a reference. This information should be
complete with stationing, tangent and curve data.
Number: 23 Created: 11/6/2007
[11/6/07] The construction plan set needs to show vertical design information
specific to Buckingham/Doff carried from the Lincoln Park project and then have it
preliminarily designed along this project tying back to the west. If the project were to
then also do a full design of Buckingham (flowline and centerline design, cross
sections, etc.) then the local street portion escrow for Buckingham would only need
to include construction costs (curb and gutter, pavements, etc.) (The design should
demonstrate that the curb and gutter installed along the western property boundary
can remain otherwise curb and gutter in this location would also need to be included
in the escrow). If the project's design along Buckingham is limited to the preliminary
portion only then the local street portion escrow will need to include design costs to
ensure curb and gutter and pavement can be built to an ultimate condition.

[11/6/07] I'd like to do some further follow-up on the existing asphalt sidewalk and
how it is affected by the widening shown for the left turn lane. It appears that the
asphalt sections of walk may need to be reconfigured with the road widening. Also,
it may be necessary to provide detectable warnings (truncated domes) for the walks
as they approach the intersection.
Number: 26 Created: 11 /6/2007
[11 /6/07] The Lemay design for the turn lanes creates angle points where the
transitions occur for the left turn lanes, I'd like to see these shown smoothed out with
curves rather than the angle points for driveability concerns.
