A draft development agreement will be provided once language has been received from the various departments. R Acknowledged: Please e-mail your initial draft as soon as it is available. E-mail to bshear@shearen ineerin .com. FINAL PLAT: 1. Information within the utility plans seems to indicate that this property was previously platted as Skyview Subdivision 3rd Filing. If it was, the legals need to indicate that. I.e.. being a replat of.. I was told the subdivision was vacated. If it was, was the r.o.w. vacated also? Please provide documentation to show that the 50 foot 112 r.o.w. is all currently dedicated. R A copy of the "Findings and Resolution concerning Vacation of Skyview South, Third Filing Subdivision" is attached for your immediate reference and file documentation. This document is recorded in Larimer County Records. Please note on Page 0290, that the right- of-way for West Trilby Road adjacent to the site was not vacated. A copy of the Skyview South, Third Filing Subdivision final plat is also attached for your immediate reference and file documentation. Note that the West Trilby Road half right-of-way is.50'. 2. Add the lines round the notice or otherwise make the statement more prominent. R A heavy line now borders the notice note to make the statement more prominent. 3. It appears that the development agreement required 3 signatures, so I will assume that the plat will as well. R Thank you for providing the specific names for signature on the development agreement. The signature blocks on the plat have been updated so it is consistent with the development agreement. TRANSPORTATION PLANNING: I The walk in front of the handicap parking stalls needs to be widened to a minimum of 6 feet or wheel stops need to be installed that prevent cars from overhanging into the walk. The current walk width which appears to be 3' is barely ADA compliant and would not be able to accommodate a wheel chair if the cars overhung into the walk. R Wheel stops are now shown on the Utility Plans and the Site and Landscape Plans.

Need to put the trash enclosure detail on the site or landscape plans not the utility plans. R The trash enclosure detail has been removed from the utility plans. It has been added to the Site Plan. 11. The cost estimate submitted has not yet been reviewed as an estimate that includes the street design has not been submitted R The cost estimate provided has been revised since the last one provided. Our base course unit cost was inaccurate. The cost estimate is based on developer responsibility of a local section including 13' of pavement, curb and gutter and 4.5' wide detached sidewalk. The pavement section depths were as recommended by Earth Engineering Consultants Inc. in the subsurface exploration report for First Free Will Baptist Church titled "Subsurface Exploration Report First Free Will Baptist Church Improvements"; E.E.C. Project No. 1032009; report dated February 3, 2003. The type R inlet that would be required, based on Wes Lamarque's comments, is also included. R We have not included an engineering fee in the estimate. We would request that you reconsider the engineering fee associated with a new arterial design. The church has already paid for West Trilby Road designs in our fee for the current project. The project had been designed based on the West Trilby Road profiles provided by RBD Inc. Engineering Consultants in the Final Utility Plans for Ridgewood Hills P.U.D. First Filing titled "Final Utility Plans for Ridgewood Hills P.U.D. First Filing; RBD Inc. Project No: 014-047; City of Ft. Collins Director of Engineering approval date 05/10/95. The cross sections provided with the RBD plans were modified to meet the street width for today's minor arterial standard. Our design was completed based on a West Trilby Road buildout to current minor arterial standards. We were asked to remove the West Trilby Road ultimate condition representation from our plans. The site will now accommodate a standard minor arterial width. It will also accommodate a wider section should accel or decal lanes be implemented in the ultimate West Trilby Road design. .12. Site plan - Need to show and label the curb stops to he installed on the parking stalls abutting the narrow walkway. If the site plans are to be the same sheets as the master improvements plans in the utility plan set we will need two mylar copies of this sheet as the site and landscape plans are filed separately from the utility plans. R We have created 2 entirely new Site Plan sheets incorporating the appropriate land use data, signature and approval blocks, etc. according to the requirements of the Land Use Code. The curb stops to be installed on the parking stalls abutting the narrow walkway are shown and labeled on both the Site Plans and the Master Improvements Plans.

Need confirmation from PFA that they do not need to access around the building. If they do the gravel drive will need to be compacted road base with a maximum grade of 6% as previously indicated. R Acknowledged: We have been unsuccessful at getting a return call from Ron. We hope you have heard from him. But you may not have. We have drafted a statement and faxed that to Ron to see if he concurs. We have asked Ron to fax a signed copy of that statement back. A copy of that faxed document is attached for your immediate reference. If Ron provides us with a signed copy, we will provide that to you immediately for your files and documentation. S. See separate plat submittal for comments on the plat. R Acknowledged: Plat comment responses are provided with this correspondence. 6. Add patching note to sheets 4 and 6. R Patching notes have been added to both sheets. The note reads as follows: "Limits of street cut are approximate. Final limits are to be determined in the field by the City Engineering inspector. All repairs to be in accordance with City Street Repair Standards". 7. Per Peter Barnes comments the sidewalk connection needs to be put in with Phase 1, show correctly on the utility plans. R The sidewalk has not been added to the phase 1. It is our understanding that the sidewalk may be installed with Phase 2 according to a decision in a recent meeting between you, Peter and Roger. 8. How does the drainage get out of the south side of the parking lot? Per the grade lines it gets trapped in the parking lot by the curb and gutter. R Curb openings exist to allow stormwater to exit. All curb openings are now clearly represented and labeled on the plans. See pictures. 9. Add the following note to sheet 10 (or something .similar): Future Trilby Road drainage to be brought into this manhole when street improvements are done and an inlet installed in Trilby Road R A note similar to the one above has been added as directed. May 20, 2003 Project No. 1785-01-00 SHEAR City of Fort Collins, Engineering P.O. Box 580 281 N. College Ave. Ft. Collins, Colorado 80522-0580 Attn: Sheri Wamhoff, P.E. Re: First Free Will Baptist Church; Fort Collins, Colorado Response to Comments Dear Sheri, This is a response to the most recent City of Fort Collins review comments concerning First Free Will Baptist Church noted in your correspondence dated May 7, 2003. We are providing pictures of the existing drive and parking area to help clarify our responses to certain comments. The Site and Landscape Plans are now being provided as separate documents. ENGINEERING: 1. Repeat - Need more elevations provided at the access drive to determine what the drainage flows do. Drainage is not allowed to flow out the driveway. Spot elevations shown do not provide enough information to show that the high point is at the row line. R Additional elevations have been added at the access drive to represent actual grading and drainage conditions. Runoff does not flow out the driveway. The actual high point of the drive is located at the future back of walk 8' south of the right-of-way. That design was based on the assumption that West Trilby Road would be a minor arterial according to current minor arterial street standards (42.00' half right-of-way). 2. Repeat - 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 can not be curb and gutter from the high point out to the street (no concentrated flow is allowed). Also will need to show where a curb cut exists for the parking lot drainage to get to the pond along the edge of the access drive. R The parking area does have curb and gutter. The transition from full height curb to 0" curb height is now shown. A curb cut exists for the parking lot drainage to get to the pond along the edge of the access drive. The curb cut is now clearly represented and labeled. See pictures. 3. ,See plans for additional comments. R Acknowledged: Plan comments have been addressed. 4836 S. College, Suite 12 Fr.
