Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewaterlssue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: Water/Wastewater Number: 47 Created: 311812008 [3118108] Add 0.2' drop in MH where private sewer service ties into the 8" public sewer.

Note has been added to the Site Plan. 3. My notes from the meeting with the City Forester and representatives from P.R.P.A. indicate that the Ornamentals within the P.R.P.A. easement would be limited to Cockspur Hawthorne or Coralburst Crabapple. The plans now indicate Tatarian Maple, Autumn Blaze Pear and Indian Summer Crabapple. Be sure to verify with Tim Buchanan, City Forester, that these trees will not exceed a height to interfere with the overhead power line. Trees shown are per Tim Buchanan's recommendation. 2. The floodplain map in the drainage report is not correct. There has been a LOMR for the Oxbow Levee project that has removed this site from the 100-year floodplain. Please include a copy of the LOMR map, showing the site location. The LOMR map has been added. 3. The Plat includes a note that a portion of the site is in the 100-year floodplain.

Number: 55 Created: 3/19/2008 [3119108] How was the sizing of the storm sewers achieved? There is no sub - basin or flow information documenting pipe size. Storm Line A needs to be at least 15-inches, which is the City's minimum. Please also label RCP as Class lll. Number: 59 Created: 312112008 [3121108] Please document how both stormline connections onto existing pipes are being proposed with a detail or by notes.

Topic: Site Plan Number. 50 Created: 311812008 [3118108] The site plan calls out a 5 foot utility easement along Buckingham Street when 9 feet is required (and is reflected as 9 feet on the plat). There is an existing 8' utility easement as labeled on the site plan. We are adding an additional 5' to that easement as labeled on the site plan. Total utility easement width is 13'. The utility easement from the new ROW is 9 feet as required. I have labeled it as so on the side west of the entry drive. See site plan.

The entire site is in the Poudre River 500-year floodplain. No critical facilities, including daycare, are allowed in the Poudre River 500-year f/oodplain. Please include a note about the critical facilities prohibition on the site plan, grading/drainage plan, and in the text of the drainage report. The requested note has been added. [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. Noted. Number: 60 Created: 311912008 [3119108] Can more detail on the grading be provided pertaining to the Buckingham sidewalk? I'm recalling that the sidewalk is intended to be raised slightly to provide some flexibility for not having the road designed at this time. A typical section has been added along with additional spot elevations. Number: 61 Created: 312112008 [31191081 Please label on the plan sheets that the driveway out to Buckingham Street is to be in concrete to the property line. Note has been added to sheet HC1. Topic: General Number. 20 Created: 111612007 [3118108] The applicant's response indicated that PRPA does not need to sign the plat or construction drawings. Please keep in mind that the attorney for the Church that is required to sign the attorney certification for the plat, may feel that PRPA would need to sign off on the plat as an owner of an easement within the plat boundaries in accordance with attorney certification requirements specified in the Land Use Code. [12/18/071 I'm fine with the applicant's response, though I believe some sort of acknowledgement from PRPA should be received prior to hearing that they don't object to the project going to hearing (or have no comment/concerns with the propsal.) [11/6/07] It appears that the Platte River Power Authority would need to be a signatory to the plat as well as construction drawings, having an exclusive easement and facilities within the property boundary. Noted. Number.51 Created. 311812008 [3118108] Shouldn't the "future sidewalk" specified to head from the parking lot to the western boundary of the property be in an access easement on the plat to ensure the legal right for the property to the west to tie into this sidewalk system? A cross access easement will be pursued with the adjacent property at the time that the Church requires additional parking.
