01/08/2014: Restriction signage is shown on the plans and staff doubts the applicant received
the revised comment (below) which retracted the restriction. Please delete the Cherry St Detail
on Sheet C200. The restriction will not be implemented at this time. Please leave the Stop
signs as shown though. My apologies for not verifying the applicant's staff had received the
retracted comment.
10/14/2013: Discussed the issue with Traffic Op's management. With the current Quiet Zone
efforts and discussions taking place the previous comment of adding signage to restrict WbL
turning traffic on Cherry at the alley is retracted. No restrictions will be implemented at this time.
10/13/2013: TIS suggests the westbound left from Cherry into the alley should be restricted.
City agrees. Applicant should expect to provide signage to discourage westbound motorists
from turning left into the Alley.
10/13/2013: Please add No Left Turn (R3-2) signage on the right hand side of Cherry just east
of the alley. Also include Do Not Enter (R5-1)signage angled to the west bound motorist.

01/08/2014: Numerous discrepancies between the Fig 6 & 7 volumes and the Appendix D & E
volumes. Please verify the analysis volumes in the appendix are correct from Existing thru
Total.
10/11/2013; The Mason and Maple 2018 Total Traffic analysis has discrepancies with the turning
counts in Figure 7. The SbL movement is still analyzed with SbL turning traffic volumes. Please
review and revise the 2018 Total Traffic analysis.

01/10/2014: A discussion needs to take place regarding the grading at the northwest corner of
the site to ensure an outfall is present for part of Mason Street. The grading ties into existing
elevations, but may create a sump.

01/08/2014: Please include striping plans for Mason between Maple and Cherry. Include the a
brief portion of the existing striping south of Maple as reference for the striping alignment north
of Maple. The lanes lines adjacent to and crossing over the northeasterly turning tracks should
match the placement of the lane lines adjacent to the track barrier curbing to the south of Maple.
Their may be issues to work out on the striping so feel free to contact Ward Stanford at
planters along Maple in the wide plaza to the east of Mason to help soften the extent of
horizontal hardscape in that area?

12/31/2013: Erosion Control Report is not missing any information, just minor edits. Section
1.1... "Carriage Apartments" Please Change, Section 2.2... "raze all structure" I was not aware
that there were still structures to be demolished, Section 2.7... "Grasses Gravel'... missing and? or
is this glass -less gravel?, and Section 4.1 please specify weed free mulch. The erosion
control plans had some redlines specifically 1) Perimeter Controls on a few of the sides 2)
Worries about wattles as perimeter control on tall buildings not being effective basis The District
at Campus West. Please address this issue to ensure the site will be effective at preventing the
materials from ending up in the Poudre. 3) Missing Inlet Protection how is the inlet protection
going to prevent discharge from a water quality structure. Please show detail. Also the location
of the trash enclosure is close to the outlet structure, this could be an issue for long term
pollution discharges. Possible secondary containment? Erosion Control Escrow Calculation
looked good but might have to be recalculated when the plans are shored up. If you need
clarification concerning this, or if there are any questions please contact Jesse Schlam .

01/08/2014: The storm drain plan and profile sheet should also include design information for
the additional storm line on Mason Street with the shifting storm inlet. Will want to see the cover

01/08/2014: The plat for the final indicates a utility easement along Mason Street that alters from.
7.5 feet to 9 feet to 7.5 feet. If the additional 9 feet is specifically needed for the short section
by the utility providers, then that's fine. Otherwise, I'd suggest maintaining just a consistent utility
width (7.5 feet is fine).

Evaluate the need to provide plants that have a mature height of 2 feet or less in the planting
bed at the corner of Mason and Maple and in the bed along Mason just to the south of the
corner. Review expectable mature plant heights in these planting beds with Traffic Operations
staff and make adjustments to meet their direction.

01/08/2014: The construction plans need to have a signing and striping plan sheet for Mason
Street that provides information on what the bikelane and travel lane widths are resulting from
the curb and gutter widening. This includes showing the amount of travel lane resulting in
proximity with the railroad track. The bike lane needs to show how it continues around the inset
curve and then ties out into the bikelane that continues north of the property.
Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 01/08/2014
01/08/2014: Please specify the curve radii along the new curb and gutter section, including at
the curb return at Mason and Maple.
Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 01/08/2014
01/08/2014: Please specify the pavement type for the widening along Mason Street. The utility
plan sheet appears to depict concrete for the inset curve but is presumably asphalt from the
relocated inlet south, but I'm uncertain.
Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 01/08/2014
01/08/2014: Please provide cross sections along Mason Street from at least the center of the
railroad track to the right-of-way line. I would want to review how the cross slope of existing
Mason Street ties into the additional widened portion and if proposed and existing cross
slopes are the same or vary. Additionally, the flowline grading and cross slope along Mason
Street north of the inlet I'd like to see additional information on up to where the 2.6% cross
slope towards the railroad track takes place. I'm a little concerned that the minimal .5% flow.line
grade with the 2% cross slope transitioning to the 2.6% cross slope in the opposite direction
may result in a flat area lacking drainage in the transition where the cross slope is at or close to
0%. Would like to see how the minimal cross slope below 2% is reduced along this .5%
flowline grade area. With the inset curve having flush curb and negative cross slope to the
railroad track, I'm unsure of how drainage flows along this area are intended to be conveyed
and whether the railroad track/crossing material acts as some sort of conveyance (does the
gutter section here remain catch curb or does it change to spill curb?). We may want to explore
keeping the cross slope positive and away from the railroad track.
Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/08/2014
01/08/2014: The railroad track drawings in the civil set show a disjointed railroad track just
south of the inlet and should be corrected for clarity. Are the existing contour lines along Mason
representative of what occurs across the railroad tracks?
Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/08/2014
01/08/2014: With the inclusion of the signing and striping plan for Mason Street, additional
review of the patching limits will be done. We may need to provide additional patching out to
the railroad track for a section to avoid the acute angle where the inlet is, but will need to see
the patching information along with the lane lines to have a more complete review. The City's
standard note regarding limits of street repair being approximate should be added.
