[12/19/05] Please show the existing improvements in a dashed or lighter line weight.
That will help to distinguish the limits of existing items and what is proposed.
Number: 3 Created: 12/19/2005
[12/19/05] How are the utility plans to be done? Are they going to be revisions to the
original plan set or a new set of utility plans? If a new set - then need to provide cover
sheet, general notes, construction notes, details sheets etc. If revisions — need to show
the addition and new improvements on the original sheets and bubble all the areas
where changes are made (where the sheet now differs from the original sheet). What
has been submitted so far is more like a new set of plans, but is incomplete if that is the
intent (cover sheet, general notes, construction notes, index to sheets, vicinity map, etc
are needed).

[12/20/05] The building addition, which is adding more impervious area, requires
additional water quality volume as well as quantity detention. This would require
modification to the water quality outlet structure. A discussion needs to take place
between entities to determine if this is manageable or if a variance should be granted.
Number: 5 Created: 12/20/2005
[12/20/05] The culvert between the two detention ponds seems to be to small to act as
an equalization pipe. One pond would most likely spill before the other was full. Please
analyse the pond network to determine if this would happen and where the spill would
occur. The smaller pond may spill into the larger pond over the internal sidewalk, which
would be acceptable and require no modification to the 12-inch pipe.
Number: 6 Created: 12/20/2005
[12/20/05] The valley pan in the upper detention pond should be extended where the
slopes are less than 2 percent.

[12/21/05] The applicant mentioned that more parking may be proposed. The City
would likely support this request since a site visit revealed that parking is limited for the
existing building and the addition will add the need for more parking spaces.
Number: 10 Created: 12/21 /2005
[12/21/05] The architectural character is consistent with the existing building, though the
City encourages the applicant to more clearly define the primary building entrance and
the "top" treatment of the fagade. See Section 3.5.3(D) of the Fort Collins Land Use
Code for examples of building entrance and building "top" treatments.

[12/23/051 The City of Fort Collins Structure Plan and Zoning Map designate this
property as E - Employment. Corrections facilities are permitted uses in this zoning
district and this use is consistent with the City Structure Plan.

[12/19/05] Need to coordinate the 6 foot sidewalk and grading along the west side of the
building with the grading and driveway proposed on the adjacent lot. Although this
driveway has not been constructed the project has received overall approval, they were
not able to file the plans until money was appropriated for the Prospect Rd/ Timberline
Rd intersection improvements. They have not yet filed these final plans, but are now
able to do so when ever they want to.
