The TIS assumes two additional lanes are built with the short term analysis, but since a roundabout is recommended, the TIS doesn't recommend building the lanes. We'll need an analysis of the short term total with existing lane configuration if that is what will be in place. It is likely that this development will need to plan on building the roundabout with the southern portions of the property.

Can you please provide information on what has changed - is the trip generation higher or lower, and by how much? If it is lower, than its likely fine. If it is higher, then we'll need to understand by how much.

To determine the final refinement of the details and decisions pertaining to the proposed tree retention, transplanting or removal contact Ralph Zentz Assistant City Forester (221 6302 rzentz@fcgov.com) for an on -site meeting. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Consider replacing tree transplanting notes 2, 3 and 4 with the following note. Timing of season, transplanting technique, and aftercare including watering shall follow recommendations of a qualified tree transplanting consultant. Reference in Tree Transplanting note number one should be changed in reference to Ralph Zentz to say a say representative of the City of Fort Collins Forestry Division. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Review with the Project Planner Clark Mapes how the Harmony Corridor Plan and or LUC Street Tree Standards should be applied to the frontage along Harmony Road. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: As the Plant Palette is refined for the next submittal round consider these adjustments to the tree lists. Please select street trees from the City of Fort Collins Street Tree List. Provide species quantities and percentage used for each species and review the Minimum Species Diversity standard LUC 3.2.1 D 3. Adjust quantities to meet the standard if necessary. Consider use of Lanceleaf and Plains Cottonwood in preference to Narrow leaf Cottonwood Consider use of Coffeetree, Catalpa, Bur Oak, Accolade Elm and other suitable canopy shade Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: If Road A becomes a'street like private drive' it would need to meet the requirements in the LUC for'street like private drive', the LUC standards for a parking lot, and PFA requirements for access. The driveway out to Strauss Cabin would need to be built like a driveway (concrete to the property line). The parking on Road A would need to be setback to meet the parking setback in the LCUASS (100 ft). Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: Provide Street Cut note on utility plan sheet and any sheet in which a street cut would be shown. Comment Number: 17 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: Need a letter of intent from the property owner(s) in which off -site easement will be needed for the sewer line connection that they plan on dedicating this easement. Letters of intent are required to be received prior to a project being scheduled for a hearing. Comment Number: 18 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: If Road A is public you are showing to vertical curves that are not meeting minimum length requirements. Comment Number: 19 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: The east bound right turn lane on Harmony Road that will be installed as part of the interim improvements - Where is the existing ROW line? Can this be installed and the grading done within the existing ROW. IF not a letter of intent for dedication of ROW and/ or easements needed to construct this will be needed prior to hearing. Comment Number: 20 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: Are the OHE lines going away? Several poles may need to be moved in order to accommodate the right turn lane improvements and the signal poles for the intersection. Also the project is responsible for either undergrounding the lines that run along or through the property. Comment Number: 21 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: Plat Need to provide a signature line for SFCSD to sign the plat accepting the easement being dedicated to them. The standard plat note regarding covenants needs to be added. The ultimate ROW for Strauss Cabin and the associated 15 foot utility easement need to be dedicated with this plat. The ROW for the right turn lane onto Road A needs to, be dedicated with this plat. The public access easements, utility easements, drainage easements and emergency access easements needed by this project need to be shown and dedicated on this plat. Comment Number: 22 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: See additional markups on the plans for additional comments. Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The site plan needs to show where the parking lot drive isles will connect to the south. Comment Number: 11 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Need information on each buildings proposed square footage and proposed uses. Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The curb, gutter, and sidewalk will need to be installed along the full frontage of this property. It is not currently being shown to be constructed south of Road A, but will need to be designed and installed with this project. Comment Number: 13 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The right turn lane into the site will need to be installed with this project. It will likely be constructed as a combination of the ultimate turn lane and interim as it transitions back to the existing roadway section. Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Right-of-way for ultimate Strauss Cabin Road adjacent to Outlot D and Outlot E along with the adjacent utility easement needs to be dedicated with this plat. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The development will be responsible for the installation and maintenance of the landscaping in the medians on Strauss Cabin Road. Notes as such will be placed in the DA identifying that this project is responsible for the installation and maintenance at such time the median is installed. Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: How many stories are these buildings proposed to be? A note on the site plan states maximum building height for HC zoning non-residential buildings 6 stories. That may be true, but how many stories are you proposing? This needs to be specified on the site plan and definitely impacts the traffic study. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 01/15/2015 01/15/2015: Comments from Tom Knostman with Street Maintenance Program We feel that diagonal on -street parking is not appropriate for a public street, and conanot support a variance from the LCUASS sections for this configuration. You could: Keep the section and the road private, or modify the section to match an appropriate LCUASS section. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: If Road A is proposed to remain public then it would be a commercial local section and would need to end in a cul-de-sac. The driveways off of it would need to be designed and built to standards (concrete to property line), and no driveway medians in the ROW. The parking lot to the east would need to meet the parking stall setback requirement of 40 feet. The sidewalk would need to go around the cul-de-sac. Access easements for the connections to the south drive isles and sidewalk would need to be within a public access easement.

The total acreage being platted was not used in the calculations submitted. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The site plan in the TIS does not match the site plan submitted. In the TIS there are only buildings north of the proposed roadway. Also the uses shown in the TIS do not match the uses identified on the site plan and the square footage in the TIS is slightly lower than that shown to be allowed/ constructed on the site plan. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Need to show the existing sidewalk along Harmony on the plans. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Need to have a conversation with the applicant and PFA in regards to how the emergency access areas are to be and can be designed and what barriers will be put in place. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Before I can provide much in the way of comments in regard to Strauss Cabin design, we need to get the ultimate Harmony and Strauss Cabin intersection figured out. We will be meeting on Jan 22 to further work on this, but here is some direction on what we need to see now that we know what lanes are required. Turning templates need to be provided showing that E-W and N-S lefts can be made at the same time. Where there are single lefts a WB-67 shall be shown. Where there are double lefts a WB-67 using the outside turnlane and a Single Unit Truck shown using the inside turn lane. There shall be at least 4 feet between the opposing turning movements. On Harmony a 7 foot minimum median island (the arterial standard) will need to be achieved. This will ultimately be a raised, curbed, and landscaped median. On all legs pedestrian refuge islands need to be designed and shown. For the two legs in which we have an acceleration lane (onto Harmony) these will be per detail 8-18 and the other two will be per detail 8-19. Turning templates using WB-67 will be needed to determine how wide the travel/ turn lane is. These islands will help to define where the pedestrian crossing and median refuge islands are to be located and where the signal poles will be located. The 4 foot ultimate median on Strauss Cabin will be acceptable. Please plan on this median being landscaped as per standards when medians are provided — this will also include the underdrain and the need for a water tap out to that area. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: Once we get an intersection layout then I will start looking at the rest of the design including the turn lane designs. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: For Road A— if you want this to be a public street the City will not support the variances needed to design it as shown with the diagonal parking. What I recommend is that becomes a street like private driveway. If you do that the parking will need to meet the parking setback requirements from Strauss Cabin, but then you can configure the diagonal parking however you want provided it meets the parking stall and drive isle standards in the LUC. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: The termination of the cut de sac street should be reconciled on these PDP plans. (Versus having line work simply end with no treatment indicated. Comment Number: 11 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 An overall effect of comments on these plans and throughout the process is that the image of development in this location will be largely landscaping, with buildings behind and among the landscaping; and this is different than typical highway commercial exit development which relies on extremely high visibility corporate development with limited emphasis on landscaping. For this project, visibility will be in openings that frame intermittent views of buildings, and any signs that may be located closer to the street. Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Add "Cottonwoods" to legend and indicate clumps on the plans. This can best be done via "greenlines" (equal to redlines) on plans; and discussion. The point being to to implement vision and discussion. This includes further discussion of Comment Number 2 from the PDR -- the project is ALL in the river valley which is our most prominent natural feature and is the defining context for land use in this area. The river valley character should be continued throughout the whole development, not just in the swale along Harmony. The idea of a transition to typical commercial landscaping in parking lots should be blended with a special river valley character. Staff can discuss examples, and ideas for this landscape plan. Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Show the Harmony Road frontage (parkway and sidewalk). Topic: Site Plan Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: A few clean-up items: Show correctly and label the sidewalk along Harmony. Label "Building Envelopes" or "Building Locations". Remove the existing tree notes, they seem like a distraction on the Site Plan. The "Active Recreational Use Areas" should be called something else, perhaps "Outdoor Use Area and Pedestrian Connection" or something - "Active Rec" typically refers to sports or playground uses ... just semantics, not a big deal. In the callout for Outlot A on Sht. 3, add "with gateway landscaping" to the end of the callout - again, just semantics, but these plans will be used and interpreted over time. Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: As discussed at the meeting, the status of Road A will determine the acceptable design approach, type and location of parking stalls; cul-de-sac/intersection treatment, sidewalks, and other details. Further conversations/emails are expected to be useful in reconciling the questions. Related to this, the treatment of the space between the buildings and the street is unclear on current plans and should be clarified - e.g., tree grates are shown as if there is streetscape/plaza paving but it's not clear. Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 01/16/2015 01/16/2015: 1 suggest removing the 6-story reference on sheet 3 - it looks like it could only create problems to state that one standard and not any others that are related to building size, massing, and compatibility; and it is inconsistent with the character elevation. Topic: General Comment Number: 1 From GIS regarding addressing: Comment Originated: 01/06/2015 1. Please request a street name reservation for Access A through the GIS office and note the approved name on the subdivision plat prior to recording. Availability of street names can be checked at Larimer.org/streets. 2. Addresses will be assigned by the GIS Department after the plans have met final approval through Development Review and are recorded with the City. 3. Projects with three or more tenant units require the Unit Level Addressing form to be completed and submitted to the GIS Department once plans have met final approval through Development Review and are recorded with the City. This can occur anytime during construction, but before any utilities or address signs are installed. All addressing will be determined by the GIS Department and submitted to Poudre Fire Authority, USPS, Building Services, and Fort Collins Utilities. Failure to contact GIS and determining addresses through other means may result in address changes. The Unit Level Addressing form can be obtained by contacting the GIS office at gis@fcgov.com or (970) 416-2483.

Comment Number: 4 From Larimer County: Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 The township is noted on the plat as being in township 7 when it is in township 6. Also, the dedication of the subdivision as currently listed does not include the wording Filing No 1. Please add that also as filing no. 1 is listed in the plats title.

Comment Summary: Department: Planning Services Contact: Clark Mapes, 970-221-6225, cmapes@fcgov.com Topic: Building Elevations Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: The building character as depicted is consistent with goals for this area as a gateway to the city in harmony with the river valley setting. It is understood that the elevation is highly speculative and that actual users will require further development of building programming and design. The character elevation should be further described in a note as providing a unifying theme, style, and character for the Convenience Shopping Center. Subsequent plan amendments for actual building design, if it varies from these elevations, will be treated as Major Amendments to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board. An alternative approach, as discussed at the meeting, would be to further develop elevations for all of the building types and then require users to substantially conform to the character so that Minor Amendments could be done for each user.
