Page 10 25 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Drainage Calculations: Please recalculate the time of concentration values used. 500 feet is the maximum allowable overland flow length. Please explain how was the 560 foot value obtained. 26 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Erosion/Sediment Control Comments • The plan shows straw bales on concrete pans. This doesn't work, please correct. . • The erosion control notes are not the current set. • Calculations indicate "dryland grass". Where is this on the plan, are areas to be reseeded/mulched, if so where, when (note on the plan)? • The escrow calculations exclude ROW areas and future phases, are these not going to be disturbed with Phase 1? Please justify. 29 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Plat: Please provide a drainage easement for the proposed detention pond in Lot 3. .: Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Water Quality Pond: Please explain why the water quality pond has concrete pans in it.

Please provide documentation as to the existence and condition of that swale. Please show this outfall ditch on the plans. Is it on railroad property ? does it go all the way to the Poudre.River ? Is there an existing drainage easement for that swale ? is it in good physical condition ? all of these issues need to be explored and clarified in any future submittal. 22 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Phasing Plan: The report states that Lot 2 will be developed at a later stage, however no interim plans were provided. Please submit a phasing plan showing what will be built with Phase 1, and how the undeveloped portion of the site will be graded in the interim condition. 23 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Variance Request: The report requests a variance for the one foot of freeboard requirement on the pond. since this is a new project, and the variance is not justified in the text, it is not clear why such a request would be granted. 24 Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Grading Plans: Please extend the existing contours grades at least 50 feet beyond the limits of the property per City requirements. There seems to be some proposed grading in the railroad ROW, either provide written documentation from the railroad company approving such grading or pull grading off railroad property. The detention pond seems to be partially in a "non -buildable" PRPA easement. Please provide written documentation from PRPA allowing the proposed grading in their easement.

Department: Engineering 32 Issue Contact: Sheri Wamhoff An adequate public facilities (APF) analysis needs to be done for this project as was identified on Attachment 'A' Transportation Impact Study Base Assumptions of the TIS. It appears that there will be APF issues on this project. This is needed before the project can consider going forward. 34 Issue Contact: Sheri Wamhoff Site Plan The site plan shows the id sign extending into the row. It can not be placed within the row. 35 Issue Contact: Sheri Wamhoff Site Plan Show the future 7-foot sidewalk along Timberline Road. It would be best to not have dual walks along here.
