04/09/2013: LUC 3.2.5 The trash and recycling enclosures. The enclosures do not appear to
be designed with a walk-in access, this will need to be revised. Also the plan only shows two
enclosures for the entire site this is not adequate for the trash and recycling needs of the
development. Label the dimensions of the enclosures on the site plan.
If the enclosures are kept at 6ft and under they will not require a building permit.

04/09/2013: Traffic Op's verified with Planning that the area land use designation per the City
Structure Plan is Medium Density Mixed Use which requires LOS of E or better. Please revise

04/09/2013: The Timberline and Kechter intersection was reviewed in the TIS short term
conditions (background and total) with the north bound right turn lane included in the analysis,
which is acceptable since it is considered a funded improvement in the City's budget. The TIS
provides that the SbR turn lane is being built by another development. Please provide who the
other development is. Traffic staff is unaware of the expected improvement.
Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/09/2013
04/10/2013: (revised comment) The TIS states the Nb and Sb right turn lanes at Timberline and
Kechter are warranted in the existing conditions. For clarification they are warranted per
LCUASS Fig 8-5, but are not existing condition LOS failures in the City model (with the TIS
volumes) as they can be mitigated with timing changes. The Existing TIS conditions/volumes
do not fail using the HCS analysis either. Per LCUASS Table 4-3 LOS failures of approaches
and/or movements at an intersection must be mitigated. The TIS indicates the southbound
movement fails LOS in the short term background and total conditions. The project has the
responsibility to mitigate the failure and per Table 4-3, also has the responsibility to provide a
transportation improvement due to the overall LOS of E at the intersection.

04/09/2013: Sht 4: A white lane line should extend from the south curb return on Rosen at
Timberline out to the existing Timberline Sb white edge line. It will extend and tie-in to the
existing Sb (west) edge line on Timberline using a 25"'curb return" radius design. This is to
effectively direct Eb right turning traffic fron Rosen out to the existing lane striping on Sb
Timberline and not allow that traffic to meander in the extra pavement width along the property's

04/10/2013: DEAD-END FIRE LANES
Comment Originated: 04/10/2013
Dead-end fire access roads in excess of 150 feet in length shall be provided with an approved
area for turning around fire apparatus.
FCLUC 3.6.2(B)2006; International Fire Code 503.2.5 and Appendix D
The EAE on the north side of Townhome Bldgs. 9 & 10 is 200' in length and terminates in a
dead-end. As both of these buildings have a fire sprinkler system, the dead-end without a turn
around will be allowed. The 30' wide, EAE on the east side of Bldg. 3 also terminates in a
dead-end in excess of 150'. As this drive aisle pertains to aerial fire apparatus access, a turn
around is still required. Extending the EAE to loop through this parking lot would resolve this

1. This project requires the Unit Level Addressing form be 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 are set within the
structure to ensure the meter banks match the official addressing for the structure.
The Unit Level Addressing form can be obtained by contacting the GIS office at

The connection of Rosen Drive out to Timberline Road will need to have additional widening to
Timberline Road north of Rosen Drive to achieve widening out of the roadway to the curb return
heading north. The City Traffic Engineer and City Engineer were both concerned about the
apparent proposal to limit widening of Timberline road to the northern property line. The
vegetation north of the access along Timberline Road creates a sight visibility concern that
needs to be removed in tandem with the road widening as well as possible grading work to
give safer sight visibility for vehicles exiting Rosen Drive onto Timberline Road. Offsite work on
the property to the north (in future right-of-way) will be needed as a result.

04/10/2013: The access ramps across Rosen Drive along Timberline Road should be shown
to direct pedestrians north -south and not angle to the "corners" of the intersection.

04/10/2013: LCUASS (including General Construction Note #45) states that handicap ramps are
required at all T-intersections which would require the construction of a receiving ramp on the
east side of Timberline Road at Rosen Drive. After discussion amongst staff however, there is
support in this project not build a receiving ramp on the east side of Timberline Road with the
connection of Rosen Drive. No further action is needed and a variance request is not required.

04/10/2013: The design of the irrigation line as originally submitted with the formal review is
problematic in that it can't be in right-of-way. With subsequent revisions, the running of the
imgation line behind the sidewalk outside of right-of-way, needs to be fully outside of
right-of-way. The placement of manholes in the sidewalk for instance, will not be allowed. In
addition, the crossing of the right-of-way for the irrigation line will need to be at right angles
(perpendicular) to the right-of-way and cannot be skewed across the right-of-way as it occurs on
the updated drawing. The requirement is to eliminate the placement of private lines in
right-of-way, with the potential exception of private line(s) crossing the right-of-way at 90 degree
angles and then authorized under an encroachment permit. Further review and comment may
result with subsequent designs. The plat will need to reflect all right-of-way being dedicated as
being free from irrigation easement encumberances.

04/10/2013: If the revised design of the irrigation line results in the eastern portion of Rosen
Drive not having full right-of-way dedicated to the northern property line boundary in order to
place irrigation facilities on the north side of Rosen Drive, outside of right-of-way, the project will
need to construct sidewalk along that northern portion of Rosen Drive along with landscaping
and trees in the parkway strip.

04/09/2013: It is difficult to tell where building entrances are on the site plan, are they marked
with a triangle? If so, building 6 requires an entrance on the west side, building 5 on the north
side, and building 1 on the north side per 3.5.2(C)

04/09/2013: In order for the townhomes to meet the standard requiring a mix of housing types
they must be "single-family attached" meaning that they need to be platted separately, fee
simple. See Article 5 for defintion of "dwelling, single-family attached" and Sec. 3.8.30(B). The
two-family dwellings will count as the required second housing type.

04/09/2013: The proposed garage parking spaces may count toward the required parking
minimum 'only if such spaces are made available to dwelling unit occupants at no additional
rental or puchase cost (beyond the dwelling unit rental rate or purchase price)." Per Sec
3.2.2(K)(1). Please add this as a note on the site plan.

04/1012013: The grade and ground line for the extension of Red Willow Drive needs to be
shown 500 feet north of Rosen Drive to further depict how the extension of the roadway to the
north could be built. It is currently shown at less than 200 feet.

04/10/2013: The sidewalk chase use in right-of-way requires the sidewalk transitioning to be 1
foot wider on either side with the length of the crossing then widened to 2 feet overall. A detail
for use in public right-of-way will be provided.

04/09/2013: The development is required to provide variation among repeating buildings, at
least three destinctly different designs. As proposed all the three story buildings are made up
of different combinations of the same building features. Please provide one more distinct
building design per 3.8.30(F)(2). This standard specifically excludes clubhouses and leasing
offices.
