[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.

[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).

[12/8/05] It would be nice to see the Trash Enclosure build to meet City of Fort Collins

considerations guidance document can be found on the City's web site at
http://www.fcqov.com/recycling/pdf/enclosure-quidelines08O4.pd .
The Site Plan Advisory Review will be heard by the City's Planning and Zoning Board on
January 19, 2006. This project will be evaluated based upon location, character and
extent of the proposal and the decision resulting from that meeting (approval or
disapproval) will be passed on to the County and applicant after the meeting. I f you
should have any questions on this matter or the comments in this letter, please feel free
to contact me at 221.6750.

Re: Larimer County Corrections Phase II Addition Site Plan Review
Dear Matt,
Thank you for the opportunity to review the Larimer County Corrections Phase II
Addition request. The site plan has been forwarded to the City of Fort Collins for review
and comment pursuant to the intergovernmental agreement with Larimer County and the
City of Fort Collins. Upon review of the application, the City offers the following
comments:

(12/14/05] 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.

[12/14/05] During a site visit on 12/14/2005, parking appeared to be problematic for
visitors. Many cars were parked in the fire lane and several other cars were driving
"laps" around the lot, waiting for spaces to become available. With the addition of 151
residents, and no additional parking proposed, spillover parking may become an issue
for nearby streets and facilities. The City of Fort Collins Land Use Code does not have a
specific parking requirement for this type of use; however, the most similar use is a
group home, which has a minimum parking requirement of two parking spaces for every
three employees and one parking space for each four adult residents (unless residents
are prohibited from owning or operating personal automobiles) (Section 3.2.2(K)(1)(b) of
the Land Use Code). Perhaps this could be used as a guideline to determine if more
parking spaces will be needed with the expansion.

[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.
