4. "Construction activity needs to be limited during Ferruginous Hawk winter night roosting
season (October 15`h through March 15`h) and during the Redtailed Hawk nesting season
(March 15`h through July 15")
R Acknowledged: Done.
5. "The project needs to show a 50-wildlife movement corridor along the ditch on and adjacent
to the eastern side of the property and fencing and vegetation is needed to compliment this
activity. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
6. "Trash dumpster areas should be designed to accommodate recycling services and includes
necessary vegetative screening. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
7. "Drought tolerant species of turf such as Fescue or Buffalograss should be considered for
new areas of turf and for replacement of existing turf. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
PLANNING
1. "Street canopy trees will need to be planted along Trilby Road, within the "tree lawn"
created by the detached sidewalk (between the curb and sidewalk). "
R Street canopy trees are along Trilby Road for concept only as the design for Trilby Road is
undetermined at this time.
2. "Existing vegetation will need to be labeled as such on the site plan."
R Acknowledged: Done.
3. "Parking information will need to be provided with the site plan. This use has a minimum
number of required spaces, which is based on I space per 4 seats in the auditorium or
principle place of worship, 2 spaces for every 3 employees, or I space for 1,000 sq. ft. of
floor area, whichever tlyields the greatest number. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
4. "The landscape plan will need to demonstrate screening of the parking lot from Trilby
Road. "
R Acknowledged: Done.

Re: First Free Will Baptist Church; Fort Collins, Colorado
R Acknowledged: Done.
13. "Please see water quality outlet structure detail comments on sheet 13. Please call Wes
Lamarque at 416-2418 for any questions.
R The water quality and orifice plate detail for the detention pond has been revised in
accordance with the changes from previous comments and the 4'x4' box detail has been
provided for adequate information.
14. "Please revise the water quality volume calculation to include the factor of 1.2. See drainage
report. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
15. "Please revise rating curve table in the water quality section to match the other table in the
detention section. See drainage report. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
16. "Afield visit discovered that the side road ditch in which the detention pond will temporarily
drain to flows into the irrigation ditch to the east. The outfall for the pond can not drain into
an irrigation ditch directly or indirectly. The flows may have to be piped across the irrigation
ditch to the Tyman property, where a drainage easement already exists.
R A swale has been implemented into the plan set to convey the 100-yr onsite and offsite flow
across the Louden Ditch.
NATURAL RESOURCES
1. "The landscape plan needs to provide a plant schedule listing the Fort Collins native grass
species including the ratio and rate in which the seed will be applied. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
2. "New landscaping added to the project needs to be Fort Collins native plant species. (see
attached plant list).
R Acknowledged: Done.
3. "Additional landscaping east of the proposed building, drive lane, and parking is needed to
provide screening from the activities associated with these issues. "
R Acknowledged: Done.

4. "Please revise the time of concentration calculations. In house calculations showed the
maximum overland travel time to be about 300ft and the travel time length for channelized
flow about 350ft. "
R Acknowledged: The time of concentration for "Design Point a" has been revised.
5. "Using equation Tc = L/180+10 from the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District yields
lower values for time of concentration. Please revise runoff calculations if needed. "
R Acknowledged: The note in the runoff calculations has been revised accordingly.
6. "Please indicate whether or not existing utilities are being removed or abandoned. "
R On sheet 4, the existing utilities will remain in place, since the road improvement design for
Trilby Road has not been achieved yet.
7. "Please add Finished Floor elevation to building on grading plan."
R Acknowledged: Done.
8. "Please state class of RCP pipe to be used for storm sewer, type III is required for pipe in the
right-of-way. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
9. "Please add a basin summary table and a detention pond summary table to the Drainage
Plan. "
R A design point runoff summary table has been added to the Drainage Plan.
10. "Please add a spillway to the detention pond and provide a cross-section of this on the
Drainage Plan. "
R A spillway to the detention pond will not be required, since the outfall pipe in the 4'x4' outlet
box for the detention pond is capable of conveying an additional 100-yr storm for onsite and
offsite flows.
11. "Please revise the water quality orifice plate calculations. "
R Acknowledged: Done. Please note that row 2 of the water quality orifices has only one
column.
12. "Please add drainage easements for detention pond and 100 year conveyance elements. See
plat. "

R The parking area currently has curb and gutter. The row is the high point and the curb at this
point already transitions to "0". The existing drive is concrete to the existing edge of asphalt;
however, the radius transitions will be asphalt until Trilby Road improvements are done.
13. "Label the Trilby Road section as "Possible Ultimate Trilby Road Section " Do to transitions
that will be required within this section of roadway it is very possible that the width will vary
and be wider than this along portions or all of the property. "
R The Trilby Road section has been removed from the plan set since its final design is
undetermined at this time.
14. "Use current detail 2201. "
R Detail 2201 has been added to the detail sheet.
15. "If the sidewalk is to be installed with this project provide ramp truncated dome details for
the ADA ramps, ramp details and high volume driveway detail.
R The sidewalk is not going to be installed with this project.
16. "See plans for additional comments."
R All redlines have been addressed.
STORMWATER UTILITY
1. "Please revise scale on sheet 12. "
R Acknowledged: Scale has been revised.
2. "The new 2002 Fossil Creek Drainage Master Plan requires detention: for the 100 year
storm and to release at the 2-year historic rate. This site is releasing at the 10 year historic
flow rate. Please revise to release at the 2-year historic rate. "
R Acknowledged: Done.
3. "Please correct basin boundaries to include separate basins for off -site flows, see drainage
plan. It is not required to detain off -site flows, however they have to be included in the design
to pass these flows through the site and detention pond spillway. The detention pond should
be sized to hold only the runoff from the site with the hydrology calculations
(TOC/intensities, areas, C factors) reflecting developed site conditions. "
R Offsite basins have been delineated, and the flows have been determined in accordance with
each. The detention pond is now sized for onsite detention only with a 2-yr historic release
rate.

frontage of this property. To do a design now, the design of the intersection of College and
Trilby would need to be done in order to determine the transition lengths and location to be
able to determine where the location of the curb and gutter would be on this site. "
R The improvements for Trilby Road that were previously shown on the Phase 2 plans have
been removed per meeting with Sheri Wamhoff. The exact location of curb, gutter and walk
are undetermined at this time in lieu of the intersection design at College Avenue and Trilby
Road.
9. "If the sidewalk along Trilby is to be put in with this project, in lieu of putting up funds for its
future construction it will need to placed at the back of the row. "
R Per the meeting with Sheri Wamhoff, it was .decided to not build the sidewalk with this
project so that the walk could be placed properly with respect to the location of the curb and
gutter. In addition, the proposed landscaping in this area will not be shown on these plans and
will be determined when design of Trilby Road has been finalized.
10. The emergency access driveway -A 6 inch gravel section will probably not work. This needs
to support 40 tons and thus probably needs to be a compacted road base. PFA wants a
maximum 6% grade used on the access drive. Is the cross pan to be installed with the gravel
drive? It is _shown in the profile, but not shown on the phase 1 sheets. The emergency
driveway needs to be crowned or drain to one side. Draining to the center is not an
acceptable section. "
R The emergency access drive will not be used as a fire access. A separate fire access has been
provided in the existing parking area. The access driveway will be temporary until Phase 2 is
implemented and at that time will be paved. A 3' valley pan has been added in the drive to
assist in drainage and will flow to the 3' cross pan. The 3' cross pan is now included in
Phase 1 improvements.
11. "Need more elevations provide at the access drive to determine what the drainage flows do.
Drainage is not allowed to flow out the driveway. "
R Additional spot elevations have been provided at the driveway.
12. "Is the parking area to have curb and gutter? At the driveway entrance if the row line is the
high point and the parking area has curb and gutter, need to show how the curb will
transition down to "0" height at the row line. If the row line is not the high point of the drive
then there cannot be curb and gutter from the high point out to the street (no concentrated
flow is allowed). It would need to be a concrete or asphalt edge only. The driveway
connection to the street should be shown as asphalt. It will be rebuilt in concrete when the
Trilby Road improvements are done, but as we do not know what the elevations of those
improvements are to be it doesn't make sense to pour it in concrete now. "

1. "Insert the legal description under the title, Lot 1 First Free Will Baptist Church "
R Acknowledged: Legal description has been added.
2. "Remove notes land 12 from the cover sheet. Note I is already covered by note 3 and note 5
on the general notes on the next page. Note 12, the Ridgewood Hills design is not valid for
this site. The street classification and width has changed since that design was done. "
R Notes 1 and 12 have been removed from the cover sheet.
3. "Add indemnification statement to the cover sheet."
R The indemnification statement is now on the cover sheet.
4. "Per PFA a minimum 6 inch fire line is required unless hydraulics will support a 4 inch."
R The fire line has been changed to a 6-inch line.
5. "Instead of labeling the plans as interim and ultimate please call them Phase 1 and Phase 2
as that is how they will be referenced by us when utility/grading permits are issued. Sheet 7,
which shows phase 2, states that it is for reference only. If phase 2 plans are for reference
only, phase 2 will not be approved with this submittal and would need to be submitted for
review and approval at the time Phase 2 is desired. It would then be subject to the code and
criteria at the time of submittal. "
R The interim and ultimate plans have been relabeled as Phase 1 and Phase 2.
6. "Identify the driveway width. "
R The driveway width has been dimensioned.
7. "Master improvement plan (phase 2)-The curb and gutter shown on the south side of the
road is not correctly shown based on the Ridgewood Hill plans and the Good Samaritan
plans. In accordance with those plans the curb and gutter is located 35 feet from the section
line. The row seems to be shown incorrectly as well. "
R The curb and gutter and row on the south side of the road have been corrected to reflect the
appropriate distance from the section line.
8. "The Ridgewood Hill design for Trilby Road that was referenced is no longer a correct
design for this Roadway (the design was for a 4 lane arterial roadway the designation at that
time -the current designation is a 2 lane arterial). In lieu of having this project provide the
design for Trilby Road at this time, the development will include the design costs within the
amount to be contributed to cover the design and construction cost for Trilby Road for the.

R Acknowledged: A fire emergency access is being provided on the plat.
2. "The temporary gravel road shall be compacted road base and able to support 80 tons."
R The building is now serviced with a 6" fire line and the temporary gravel road is no longer a
fire access. A fire access easement is now being provided in the existing parking area.
3. "Is it possible to obtain a 6% grade as opposed to an 8% grade along the north section of
the temporary gravel road?. "
R See response above.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS
1. "Master and Interim Improvement Plans should include master and interim dimensioning.
Please dimension existing and improved future roadway widths, access drive widths, etc. "
R Acknowledged. Dimensioning has been added to both Phase 1 access drive improvements
and Phase 2 access drive improvements. Improvements to W. Trilby Road have been
removed per Sheri Wamhoff. The timing of improvements to W. Trilby Road is
undetermined at this time, as well as the exact determination of the location of these
improvements.
EXCEL ENERGY
1. "Existing gas service lies 424' east of E. Constellation Dr. and was installed in a straight
line to the meter on the west wall. Existing service is 3/ "mw. Depending on existing & future
gas loads, this service may need to be reinforced to a larger 1-114" service. We will need to
know total future load. This reinforcement would be at the owners expense. "
R The total future load for this addition is not anticipated to be greater than what currently
exists; however, the owner is investigating total future loads.
AT & T BROADBAND
1. "AT & T Broadband would like to see a utility easement granted on all sides of the
property. "
R A 10' utility easement is being shown on the east side of the property and a 15' utility
easement is being shown on the south side of the property. There are currently 20' foot utility
easements on both the north side and the west side that were dedicated with Skyview South
First Filing.
