Please use and submit preliminary pavement sections designs for this project using current LCUASS Chapter 5 and 10. 2. A final pavement design will be necessary once this project goes to construction and the subgrade on public ROW has been graded to within six inches of final subgrade elevations. 3. Please revise the road closure on the N-S piece of White Willow Drive at Prairie Hill Drive to allow for a radius rather than a corner. Suggest a minimum radius of 50 feet. The civil plans reference the geotechnical report on the Cover Sheet, the General Construction Notes Sheet, and on the grading plan .sheets. The Geotechnical report provides for recommended preliminary pavement sections. Comment Number: 19 Comment Originated: 04/1=013 04/10/2013: The construction plans indicate the use of dry -stacked sandstone walls throughout the project. These are not indicated on the site and landscape plans, and should also be shown for review. How tall are the walls projected to be? These walls are now shown on the site and landscape plans with elevations for top-oj- wall and botlorn-of-wall shown in the civil grading plans. Topic: Plat Comment Number: 18 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: A 9 foot utility easement is required to be dedicated behind the right-of-way of non -arterial streets. It appears that portions of Buildings 2, 5, 6 ( and technically 4) do PO Box 1889 Fort Collins, CO 80524 (970) 472-9125 www.vignettestudios.com VIGNETTE s t u d i o s reflect all right-of-way being dedicated as being free from irrigation easement encumbrances. The irrigation line and associated easement has been revised to provide for the line and easement entirely out of the City ROW, with the exception of where the line is required to cross Rosen Drive and Red Willow Drive. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 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. Due to the irrigation line, the full ROW is not being dedicated We are providing this sidewalk as requested. ROW will be dedicated as shown on the plat and civil plans to avoid the irrigation easement and line overlapping the ROW- however, the sidewalk will terminate at the nearest handicap ramp on the north side of'Rosen Drive so as not to create a dead end sidewalk further to the west. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: The construction of Red Willow Drive will need to have on -street parking created for both sides of the street, recognizing that the development along both sides of the street would utilize the on -street parking. This has been added Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: 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. Aspen has provided for the right turn lane in its ultimate location, which allows for two future southbound through lanes, a bike lane, and the exclusive right turn lane, as shown in the plans. Aspen has also verified that the sight distance easement is within the proposed ROW being dedicated with the project and as well as providing for the removal of all vegetation and other items from the new proposed curb out to the saw cut line, noting that the sight line falls to the east of the curb line, including the bay taper of the right turn lane. PO Box 1889 Fort Collins, CO 80524 (970) 472-9125 www.vignetlestud ios.com VIGNETTE s t u d i o s 04/10/2013: Based on information shown on the grading plan, a letter of intent it needed for the offsite work occurring on HCT LLC property. Depending on additional design information along Timberline Road north of the property, the letter of intent may also be needed to address design of the right turn lane into the site and sight visibility to the north. Crown Partners continues to work with the developer to the north to try and obtain a letter of intent for the offsite roadway improvements and associated grading that extends beyond the existing ROW, as required by the City. Crowne will provide the LOI to the City as soon as they receive it. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: A letter of intent would be needed from the Linden Park HOA for the removal of the emergency access drive. Aspen has met with the Linden Park HOA and the HOA' representative and is awaiting; final signature by the President of the HOA. Aspen will provide the LOI to the City as soon as it is received. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 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. This has been corrected. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 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. Acknowledged Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 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 irrigation 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.

Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: The termination of White Willow Drive would need to be reconfigured with a radius on where elevation 42.19 is specified. Aspen has corrected this to provide for a 50'radius, as shown and approved by Traffic Ops, Engineering, and Pavement Mngmt. Staff. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: The grade and groundline 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. The grade and groundlines have been extended to show the profile 500 north of the property. Aspen has kept the future profile high, as the highest elevation achievable should be utilized to provide sanitary sewer service for any future development to the north. Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 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. Aspen has added the detuil provided by the City. Comment Number: 17 Comment Originated: 04/10/2013 04/10/2013: On the plan and profile sheets, please have the plan view graphically aligned with the profile view in order to following the vertical alignment better. Aspen has provided for this, where achievable. Comment Number: 21 Comment Originated: 04/11/2013 04/11 /2013: Is the sawcut line for the construction of new pavement such that there's additional pavement to sawcut out a clean edge in which to widen Timberline Road? If there isn't, additional sawcut of existing pavement may be needed and would need to encompass the entire existing bikelane width as no seams would be allowed in the bikelane. The proposed saw cut / mil line has been shown on the demolition plan and horizontal control plan and is called out throughout the civil plans. The saw cut line follows the lane lane or bike lane, as applicable.
