At design point 3, there is an overflow of 3.3 cfs which spills at an elevation greater than 1 foot higher than
the inlet. City criteria limits the amount of ponding in a parking lot to 1 foot. Due to existing conditions, a
variance would be supported to allow this one area to pond up to the 18 inches as shown. Please formally
request a variance with the next submittal.
Topic: Floodplain
14
Park Central
1. Because the FEMA floodplain is also applicable to this site, it needs to be included on the plans, plat, and
drainage report. This is because if any of the buildings are in the FEMA floodplain, then the elevation
certificate needs to be filled out for the FEMA information because of the flood insurance issues. If the
buildings are not in the FEMA floodplain, disregard comment 4.
2. Please plot the FEMA floodplain and floodway on the plat in addition to the City floodplain and floodway.
3. Please plot the FEMA floodplain and floodway on the plans. Suggest creating a separate floodplain sheet
that shows both the City and FEMA floodplains, floodways, BFE's and cross -sections. Items not related to the
floodplain (basin boundary, hydrology info, erosion control info, etc,) could be eliminated on this drawing to
help reduce the clutter. The City floodplain could be shown on the other grading sheets as the higher of the
two floodplains. Please call Marsha Hilmes-Robinson to discuss if you have questions.
4. Sheet 3 and Drainage Plan - Floodploin Table - Please add a row for the FEMA BFE. This will be used on the
elevation certificate for any buildings in the FEMA floodplain. Put an "NA' for any buildings not in the FEMA
floodplain.
5. Sheet 3 - It appears that Building 3 is just barely out of the floodplain. Please review and verify. If so, it does
not need to be listed in the floodplain table and does not need a floodplain use permit. We still encourage
you to elevate this building as you have already done because of its close proximity to the floodplain, but it
does not need to be designated as being in the floodplain.
6. Drainage Report P.1 - The FEMA floodplain and floodway needs to be discussed. Please discuss the
location of the buildings relative to the FEMA floodplain.
7. Drainage Report - Please cite the FEMA FIRM panel and date. Please include a copy of the FEMA FIRM
panel and mark the site location on the FEMA map.
8. Please see notes on the floodplain use permit for the Park Central Infrastructure. Please call Marsha Hilmes-
Robinson if there are any questions.

Lighting and Landscaping Plans:
Difficult to assess both plans due to missing photometrics (buildings 1, 5, and 6). Also, levels below .7 in
parking lot can generate potential security problems.

Topic: Drainage

There is a portion of the water quality pond and storm sewer # 2 that are not within the property boundaries
of either Parcel 1 or 2. There needs to be offsite drainage and temporary construction easements for these

This project encroaches into the natural habitats and feature buffers for Spring Creek required under section
3.4. I(E) of the Land Use Code. Mitigation measures along the creek are needed to make up for this loss of
buffer (3.4. I(D)). Addition Fort Collins native plant material should be added to provide additional buffering
from the proposed development reduces the impact of the encroachment. Avoid planting Cottonwoods
near the existing sewer line. Utilities recommend at least 40' away from the line.
