[8/19/05] [mv] Based upon 3.3(d)(7)(b)(1), I concur with the applicant's response in
not undergrounding the overhead line at this time. I'd suggest providing for sleeving
to have the line undergrounded in the future, if there are no plans to have the line
abandoned in its entirety.
[4/29/05] Please underground any exiting overhead utilities per LUC 3.3.2D(7)

[8/19/05] The retaining wall on the north side of the site will need to be completely
within the property, including and footings, unless an easement is obtained from the
property to the north. At final design, the retaining wall will need to be structural
designed due to the wall being taller than 4 feet from bottom of footing to top of wall.
Number: 35 Created: 8/19/2005
[8/19/05] Stormwater is ready for hearing after north retaining wall issue is resolved.

[8/17/05] Thanks for including the improvement. One question though, is there any
way to maintain an 8 foot section around the utility infrastructure. We are so close to
getting the std. for this roadway that it would be great to explore this option. Thanks.
[4/27/05] This project will need to facilitate an offsite sidewalk improvement to the
east or west, it is the applicants choice, It would seem that going east would be most
favorable for this project as the gap between the existing sidewalk to the east and
the edge of this projects property line is about 40 feet or so. This will satisfy the
connectivity requirements for pedestrian LOS. There are a number of options
available - including: a). Building the ultimate sidewalk in concrete, b). Building an
interim asphalt connection c). Escrowing the money for the improvement to be done
at some point in the future, or d). Providing a contribution in aid so that the
improvement can be built at a later date. Since this is a considered an offsite
improvement on private property, choosing options a, c, or d will make this applicant
eligible for a repay from the adjacent property owner at such time as the parcel to
the east re -develops. Option b, construction of the interim asphalt connection, will
not be eligible for repay.

[8/19/05] [mv] This did not appear to be addressed with the submittal.

property to accommodate future shared access with property(ies) to the west.

[8/19/05] A letter of intent for an offsite easement to the east of the site may be
needed for the sidewalk connection along Harmony Road to the east. Please
provide information to demonstrate that the connection either falls within a public
access easement/right-of-way, provide for an approvable design that does not result
in requiring legal right to construct, or provide a letter of intent from the neighboring
property.
Number: 37 Created: 8/19/2005
[8/19/05] The retaining wall along the northern boundary of the site appears
impossible to construct without encroaching onto the property to the north. Either a
letter of intent is required from the property owner, or the design needs to be altered
in such a way that the location and construction of the wall can remain fully withing
the platted boundary of the development.
Number. 38 Created: 8/19/2005
[8/19/05] Technical Services - Engineering has offered the following comments:
1. Boundary and legal close
2. Center 1 /4 comer info is needed
3. P.D.P. is still incorrectly listed in the sheet title.
4. "City of Fort Collins" is missing in legal and main title.
5. A distance is needed to specified at the south end of the emergency access
easement.
