Topic: Overall Utility Plan
Number: 84 Created: 4/25/2006
[4/25/06] The sidewalk on the north side of the building needs to be configured at 6'
minimum since it is adjacent to head -in parking. I think we should perhaps talk about
widening it beyond that if indeed there is no curb there (as indicated on sheet 5 of the Utility
Plans). Seems to me that it will be easy for vehicles to park on this walking surface if we do
not take some sort of action (curb, wheel stops, or something else?) to keep that from
happening. Thanks.

Topic: Drainage Plan
Number: 17 Created: 1 /5/2006
[4/25/06] Still need details for bio-swales as well as landscaping in drainage channels.
Please provide a calculation for 100 year flows within the channel.
You may need to stub out pipe to future development on the Willow Street Lofts. Coordinate
with Willow Street Lofts design.
[1/5/06] Please provide a detail for the proposed bio-swales. ,
Thank you for including all of the off -site areas in your water quality pond design. At final
plan review, water quality outlet details should be provided.
At final, more analysis will be required regarding the overtopping of the water quality pond.
Reinforcement of the overflow area might be required.

future Willow Street improvements.

Topic: Electric Utility
Number: 1 Created: 12/23/2005
[4/13/06]
[12/23/05] In order to maintain electric service to the existing facility during construction,
substantial temporary relocations of the electric utility system will be necessary at owner's
expense.

[12/23/05] Light & Power will need electric load information provided by completing a C-1
form. Also will need to have the locations of new electric lines and transformer coordinated
with Light & Power. The transformer will need to be within 10 ft. of an all weather service
accessible to a utility line truck. Other minimum clearance requirements will apply.

Number: 47 Created: 1 /10/2006
[4/14/06] In addition to the previous comment the bio-swale plantings will also need to
provide additional details and planting schedule.
[1/10/06] Landscape Plan lacks detail at this level of review. The next submittal should
include planting notes and schedules listing ratios native seed mixes.
Number: 83 Created: 4/24/2006
[4/24/06] Final Compliance plans will need more detail such as planting schedules for seed
mixes (including species, quantity, ratio, etc.).

Topic: fire

[4/26/06] The Fire Department Connection to supply the sprinkler system must be adjacent
to the fire lane, for accessibility.

[4/26/06] The Emergency Access Easement shown on the plat is insufficient and incorrect.
Here is what must be dedicated on the plat: From Willow Street, the drive aisle all the way
north to the first drive aisle north of the structure, then west to the end of that drive aisle,
north to the next closest drive aisle, then east to the original drive aisle, and south until it

[5/1/06] Final Plan Review: Clark and I are a little confused about the revisions made to the
front "orchard". What kind of trees are they? Hopefully not Aspen. It might be really nice
with Serviceberry (tree form). And how will the informal plantings of shrubs and trees in the
grass work - what's the concept there? How will it be maintained? Is it appropriate for this
context? We definitely want to see something wonderful in this area but we aren't sure if we
are seeing this correctly. How about the landscaping on the hill in front? Will that stay as is
with turf? Does it relate to the landscape plan for the orchard? Is it intended that this area
would be addressed in the Downtown River District Improvement Project? (If so, please
make a note on the plans to avoid confusion.)
Topic: Lighting Plan
Number: 40 Created: 1/9/2006
[5/1/06] Thank you for addressing the lighting plan comments so well. This is one of the
better lighting plans I've seen. The fixtures look great and the lighting levels are great.
Please call out the ES2 fixture in final plan. Thanks for all the hard work on this. Good job!
[1/9/06] Plan needs to include sketch or photo info from cut sheets for each fixture
proposed. Unable to find online.

Topic: Construction Plans
Number: 88 Created: 4/26/2006
[4/26/06] The patching along Willow Street needs to be at right angles to the flowline and
should be shown encompassing the full width of Willow Street.
Number: 89 Created: 4/26/2006
[4/26/06] Why is no curb being proposed for the sidewalk along the north side of the
building? It appears that parking along the north side of the building will result in the
pedestrian space for the sidewalk being compromised without the curb to provide a physical
barrier for the vehicles. (Follow-up: In checking with Transportation Planning, the use of
curb stops mentioned at staff review should be indicated on the plans and the sidewalk will
still need to be widened to 6'.)

eded from Xcel and
[1 /10/06] There appears to be several outside entities that would need to provide a letter of
intent for the work that is occurring on their easement/right-of-way and/or the vacating of the
rights as shown on the plat. North Weld County, Xcel Energy, Colorado -Wyoming Gas
Company, and United Way should provide letters of intent. Burlington Northern Railroad
appears likely as grading may be occurring within their easement. Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph doesn't appear to be impacted and thus a letter of intent is likely
not required.

Topic General
Number: 27 Created: 1 /6/2006
[5/1/06] These redlines will need to be submitted at the time of Final Plan submittal, after
the hearing. .
[1/6/06] There are additional minor comments on the redlines. Please return all redlined
plans at resubmittal.

Topic: Site Plan

[5/1/06] The ramps still aren't making sense. See redlines.
[1/6/06] The ramp system at the handicap parking areas doesn't make sense. Please see
redlines. Is the small satellite parking area behind Willow Street Lofts handicap accessible.
or not? Plans conflict. If so, ramps are needed.
Number: 25 Created: 1 /6/2006
[5/1/06] This plot is even darker than the last. At least grey them back a bunch.
[1/6/06] Please get rid of all the extraneous lines.
Number: 92 Created: 5/1/2006
[5/1106] [5/1/06] Clark Mapes and I talked about the revisions you have made to the front
walk area. We have some questions about the proposed. There is an existing sidewalk up
at the level of the street. Is it possible to leave that as built (with a few repairs)? Then bring
new sidewalks pretty much as you show them, down to the entry area? The street sidewalk
serves through -walkers. I'm attaching a sketch on trace that Clark and I did. If needed, we
can meet with you again about it.
Topic: Landscape Plan
Number: 29 Created: 1/9/2006
[5/1/06] Just carrying comment through to Final Plan
[1/9/06] The print quality of page LS1.3 is poor. I am unable to review completely. At the
time of Final Plan submittal, you will need to call out all specific plant materials to be used
and identify them on the landscape plan. For pre -hearing review, we need enough
information, possibly in the form of notes on the plans, to make sure that standards will be
met. -
