Dear Steve,
Attached are revisions to Riverbend Project Development Plans, revised in response to City staff and
agency review comments. The comments made and revisions requested on the PDP have been addressed
as follows:
Naturil Resources
1. No units have been eliminated; instead the units have been redesigned, pulling the buildings and
hardscape out of the 100 foot buffer, leaving room for proper detention/ water quality within the
buffer area.
2. The stormwater system has been designed to provide water quality, and is being released at the
two-year historic rate. Reference the civil plans.
3. The required buffer area is no longer being reduced.
4. The landscape plan has been altered to only use native plants within the buffer area.
5. There is an existing'fence along the south property line between the site and the natural areas.
6. The sidewalk connections have been changed, as well as the entrance to the natural areas parking
lot as requested:
Stormwater Utility
1. See comment letter by North Star Designs.
Transportation Planning
1. The units have been redesigned to provide front door access from the internal drive. In addition,
sidewalks have been added as requested along the internal drive.
2. No parking on Countryside Drive has been noted on the site plans.
Engineering
1. See comment letter by Northstar Designs for civil related items.
2. SITE PLAN — overlapping words have been corrected.
3. SITE PLAN — ROW, easements, setbacks -have been labeled, and a legend added.
4. SITE PLAN -Countryside improvements are shown per 7-8F without the walk on the west side.
5. SITE PLAN — I have not found anywhere in the land use code, or the Larimer County street
standards where 21/23 foot deep parking spaces are required, therefore I have left them at 17 feet.
6. SITE PLAN — The land use code requires 13 foot wide parking stalls, as does ADA. We have
added a walk_ with ramp access to it to provide access to the units.
7. SITE PLAN — The radius dimensions for the turn around have been added as requested.
8. SITE PLAN — The private drive and emergency access have been labeled.
9. SITE PLAN - The existing parking lot has been labeled.
