inches, the sewer line will be encased in concrete as per City of Fort Collins specifications.
Once completed, this information will be provided immediately for review.
14. "Do to the age and size of holes existing /proposed in the manhole located at the intersection
of East Vine Dr and Jerome street, the base must be replaced. Clearly define this on the
overall utility plans. "
R The existing manhole is called out to be removed, hauled away, and to be replaced. A new
60" diameter manhole will be installed.
15. "Do not extend proposed sanitary sewer mains beyond the last service. "
R Acknowledged. Changes have been made.
16. "As previously indicated, provide details for all water main lowering. "
R Please refer to prior comment response.
17. "If the existing 12-inch water main located in Redwood St. is to be relayed, then it must be
relayed in the future street right of way. "
R The existing 12" water main will remain in its current location during phase 1 construction.
Once Redwood Street is ready for construction, the 12" water main will be relayed. Its future
location will be within the Redwood Street ROW. A sleeve beneath the Lake Canal crossing
at Redwood has been incorporated into this design phase, which will accommodate the future
relayed water main.
18. "Clearly define the manholes which are to be adjusted. Provide Adjust detail for
adjustments over 16-inches. "
R Manholes and adjustment details are now included. An exception is EX MH-12. This
manhole will not be affected. Therefore, no adjustment detail will be necessary.
19. "Clearly define what portion of plans are for construction and what is for reference only. "
R Acknowledged. Text has been added; lines have been added, removed, or modified all in an
effort of providing clarity to the plans.
20. "As previously indicated, provide steel casing all existing. and proposed water/sewer lines
which pass below concrete box culverts. "

R Acknowledged. Water main valves at intersections have been added or reduced as requested.
9. "Clearly indenter the method for phasing water and sewer mains (2 foot sewer stubs, water
mains plugs, etc). "
R Phasing of the water and sewer mains has been defined. Mains are stubbed at phase lines,
and water mains to be relayed, and noted as such in the plans. Additionally, plan sheets for
secondary phases are identified as "For Reference Only."
10. "Gas mains may not pass through, above or below water meter pits. As previously indicated
provide 4 feet separation between curbstops and gas/electric lines. Provide 4 feet separation
between outside wall of meter pits and building envelopes. "
R Separation distances have been reviewed and changes have been made within the plan set. It
should be noted, that a detail is provided which identifies and calls out specific separation
distances.
11. "Clearly indentify all existing water/sewer lines which are being abandoned. Clearly
indentify the method /procedure for the abandonment of existing water/sewer lines. "
R The sewer line located along the south end of Jerome Street will be abandoned. This is now
clearly labeled. Notes on the utility sheet specify items to be abandoned and by which
method.
12. "As previously indicated, maintain a 10 feet separation distance between thrust blocks and
all other underground utilities. "
R Changes have been made to incorporate the separation requirement.
13. "The City of Fort Collins Utilities standards require an 18-inch minimum separation
between existing water/sewer lines and all storm sewer/box culverts. Per our previous
meeting, please provide details of how this sanitary sewer and storm sewer conflict may be
resolved. Provide details which will show that the existing/proposed pipe will not be located
in the flow of the cannel and that the proposed box culvert will not bare on the
existing/proposed pipe. Please contact Jeff Hill at 221-6674 or Roger Buffington at 221-
6854 to arrange a meeting to discuss this matter. "
R Acknowledged. This is in process. Several instances of conflicts exist between. Lowering
details will be provided once completed. Where separation distances are to be less than 18

Dear Mr. Hill:
This is a response to your project comments regarding Old Town North. Original comments and
responses to each are provided.
4. "Landscape separation requirements have not been met. Please coordinate landscape plan
with civil plan and provide the required landscape separation distances. Show and label all
existing and proposed water/sewer mains and services on the landscape plans. "
R Separation distances between landscape items and utilities have been coordinated. The
utility plan set has been updated meeting requirements. See BHA response to comment
regarding the Landscape plan.
5. "A 30 foot utility easement is required for all sanitary sewer mains when mains is located
outside of a public right-of-way. "
R Acknowledged. The utility easement previously identified as being 20' wide, has been
changed. The width now is 30 feet and noted as such.
6. "Combine like notes on sheet seven to eleminate excessive numbering. "
R Where possible like notes and notes located close together have been combined in an effort
to simplify the sheet.
7. "Place gate valves on proposed water main in oder to allow individual isolation of fire
hydrants. "
R Gate valves on proposed water mains have been added allow for isolation of fire hydrants as
requested and per redlines provided.
