Shade Trees 3.0 inch caliper Ornamental Trees 2.5 inch caliper Evergreen trees 8 feet height Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Contact the City Forester for an on -site meeting to review any existing, significant trees for retention. Significant trees need to be retained to the extent reasonably feasible. Significant trees on the site should be identified on the plans by species, size, condition, mitigation and intent to retain, transplant or remove. Inventory information is available from Foothills Mall Tree Inventory. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Add the following note in larger print with a bold border to the landscape plan. A free permit must be obtained from the City Forester before any street trees are planted in parkways between the sidewalk and Curb or on the City Right of Way behind the sidewalk. Street tree locations and numbers may change to meet actual utility/tree separation standards. Landscape contractor must obtain approval of street tree location after utility locates. Street trees must be inspected and approved before planting. Failure to obtain this permit is a violation of the Code of the City of Fort Collins. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Please add this note if it is not already on the plans. Landscaping including street trees in each phase shall be or secured with a letter of credit, escrow, or performance bond for 125% of the value of the landscaping and installation prior to the issuance of certificate of occupancy for any building.

Include these notes under a separate heading Street Tree Notes. 1. A permit must be obtained from the City Forester before any trees or shrubs as noted on this plan are planted, pruned or removed on the public right-of-way. This includes zones between the sidewalk and curb, medians and other City property. This permit shall approve the location and species to be planted. Failure to obtain this permit may result in replacing or relocating trees and a hold on certificate of occupancy. 2. Contact the City Forester to inspect all street tree plantings at the completion of each phase of the development. All trees need to have been installed as shown on the landscape plan. Approval of street tree planting is required before final approval of each phase. 3. Street tree shall be supplied and planted by the developer using a qualified landscape contractor. 4. The developer shall replace all dead and dying street trees after planting until final maintenance inspection and acceptance by the City of Fort Collins Forestry Division. All street trees in the project must be established of an approved species and of acceptable le condition prior to acceptance. 5.

Upsized mitigation trees should be sized as follows and can be trees proposed on the Foothills Mall Multi -Family Major Amendment. Clearly identify mitigation trees in the plant list and on the direct Comment Number: 33. Comment Originated: 06/02/2015 06/02/2015: Since our meeting on May 27, 2015, and based conversations with the consulting team, Staff is in agreement that the layout and arrangement of buildings, and their relationship to the Mall Access Drive, are acceptable. Staff has indicated that the team should focus on creating individual identity at the pedestrian level by customizing the each building's entrance but re -orienting the buildings is not necessary. Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Marc Virata, 970-221-6567, mvirata@fcqov.com Topic: Construction Drawings Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/19/2015: I'm understanding with preliminary conversations with Bob Walter with Alberta that they intend to have the interior ring road construction completed fairly soon and would be concerned about utility tie-ins from this project into the ring road occurring after their completion of the ring road pavement. The interior roadway being private, does not have City Engineering implications, however it may of interest to the developers in the area to have the utility connections within the ring road shown on the civil plans for this project, be instead indicated as revisions to the original Planning Area 3 set and installed "at -risk" in advance of the planned paving of the ring road. City Engineering permitting and inspection fees for the public infrastructure would be required in conjunction with the approval of the revisions to the PA3 plans. Comment Number: 3 05/19/2015 Comment Originated: 05/19/2015 05/19/2015: The civil drawings should be providing labelling information to indicate and discern 1) what improvements would be installed with this project that were originally shown to be installed with the PA3 plans, 2) what improvements are to be installed by Alberta per either the PA2 or PA3 plans, such as presumably the 64.7 feet of 6 inch sanitary sewer main in Stanford Road. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 05/19/2015 05/19/2015: Project Note 1.b. indicates that utility stubs to the lots are to be installed by Alberta per the PA3 plans. Is it the intention that the additional work shown on the PA3 plans that are not utility stubs to the lots (such as the sanitary tie-in to Stanford Road between lots 3 & 4) will also be done? Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 05/19/2015 05/19/2015: The drawings (especially the civil set) would benefit from showing existing easements dedicated with the plat for Foothills Mall Redevelopment Subdivision. It seems that existing easements may need to be vacated in areas and new easements dedicated in others. Lot 4 in particular appears to require vacation of a large easement for the northern portion of the lot. Please provide information on the anticipated easement dedications and vacations for review. Per our Transportation Development Review Fee schedule, each deed of dedication is $250 and each vacation is $400, along with Larimer County recordation costs. A 2 week routing for review and approval by the utility providers is needed for each utility easement vacation request. Comment Number: 23. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For all three modules (end -facing elevations), there is no distinguishing top element leading to a flat and sparse look. Please consider options that address this component. Perhaps a parapet, projection or cornice would add a level of detail that solves this problem. Comment Number: 24. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: On the long -side elevations, as mentioned above, the facades would benefit for adding more details to the windows. And, the same comment applies to creating a distinct top element to mitigate height and mass. And, the same comment applies to raising up the base material — ceramic panel cladding. Comment Number: 25. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Overall, staff is concerned about the reliance on the gray color tones. The over -use of gray on recent multi -family buildings on a community wide -basis is becoming quite noticeable. On a project of this scale, there should be no reliance on anyone color tone. In fact, our visual preference surveys indicate higher ratings for buildings that feature warmer color tones versus cooler tones. Staff recommends that in order to comply with Section 3.8.30(F)(2), the design team use a broad palette of colors so that one color tone does not dominate. Comment Number: 26. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: In general, staff is looking for the project to be more varied, further articulated with a richer mix of details, with warmer color tones. Comment Number: 27. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Please indicate the material and color of the stairwell screen walls. Comment Number: 28. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: On the architectural sheet, there is a depiction of a low screen wall and pedestrian entry portal leading to the courtyard beyond. Please indicate on the site plan where these elements occur. Again, to emphasize variety, each entry portal should be unique and not repeated. Comment Number: 29. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Prior to hearing, we need to review the materials and color with sample boards. Comment Number: 30. Comment Originated: 06/02/2015 06/02/2015: Be sure to provide the appropriate number and properly sized containers for recyclable materials. In addition, there are new techniques for accommodating compostable materials. For further information, please contact Caroline Mitchell, Environmental Planner, 221-6288, cmitchell@fcgov.com. Comment Number: 31. Comment Originated: 06/02/2015 06/02/2015: As the locations for the electrical transformers become finalized, please provide landscaping or solid screening so that they are not visible from Stanford Road. Comment Number: 32. Comment Originated: 06/02/2015 06/02/2015: Where it is not possible to add internal private sidewalks due to ownership by Alberta, please label as "not a part." segments of inten iai sidewalks. At the south end, this walk mubc be six feet in width to account for the 17-foot long stall length and must extend south to join with new sidewalk (preceding comment) along the Mall Access Drive. At the north end, there are no spaces so the walk can be reduced to five feet in width. Comment Number: 14. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For Lot 5, the same comment applies as to customizing street -facing building entrances to address the issue of repetitiveness. Comment Number: 15. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: A sidewalk must be added along the southerly Mall Access Drive. This sidewalk must be detached with a parkway for street trees. Comment Number: 16. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Please add a connecting walkway between buildings A and B that connects the driveway/garage access to the bus stop. Comment Number: 17. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: At the southwest corner of building D-1, add short segment of connecting walkway that links to the sidewalk along the north -south Mall Access Drive. Comment Number: 18. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For all buildings, as mentioned previously, we will need to see how the project complies with Section 3.8.30(F)(2) so that there is substantial variation among repeated buildings. Comment Number: 19. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: On the architectural elevations, there needs to be additional three -dimensionality and articulation, otherwise, the fagades appear to be flat. Presently, the unadorned windows contribute to this lack of articulation and need additional detail. Please add sills, lintels, additional framing or other features that allow the windows to create shadow lines and overall visual interest. Comment Number: 20. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: The ends of the buildings are divided into three modules. Please provide more detail features for the two end modules. For the left module, the base material should be raised up the top of the first floor. Presently, the ceramic panel cladding is too low to act as a base material. Also, the materials do not appear to add any depth to the fagade and the module appears flat and uninteresting. As mentioned, window embellishment will help, but overall, the massing is not broken down. Staff is concerned since the ends of the buildings will be highly visible. Please explore solutions that address how the left module can be further articulated. Comment Number: 21. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For the right module, there is no distinct base. The three story height and mass needs to be softened with a distinct base material and color that is differentiated from the upper portions of the wall. Comment Number: 22. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For the middle module, the fiber cement cladding appears to feature seams that will for some depth and shadow lines. Please provide a detail or sample that clearly indicates the width and depth of the seams. Please indicate how these two heights are to be distributed. Is mere any variety to the distribution? In other words, is there a chance that there can be varying heights along the Mall Access Drive? Comment Number: 4. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For Lot Three, please provide a detailed narrative and schematic that fully describes all the aspects of the Mall Access Drive and how it complies with the requirements for a Street -Like Private Drive per Section 3.6.2(N)(1-6). If addresses are taken off this private drive, then it should be named Foothills Parkway. Comment Number: 5. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Please provide a unit count per building. Note that on Sheet 2 of 11, there are two unit counts indicated. Also, it would be helpful to label the street -facing building entries as the graphic depiction is miniscule. Comment Number: 6. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For Building D-2 at the corner of Stanford Road and the Mall Access Drive, the building is only nine feet set back from property line. This building is called out to be a combination of two and three stories. Is the building two stories at this nine foot setback condition? If not, and there are three stories at the nine foot setback line, then the applicant is encouraged to create a 45-degree angle at the building corner and accent this angle with projecting bay windows on the upper floors. In addition, landscaping in this area should be enhanced. Please provide a sight distance triangle for this intersection and then upgrade the landscaping outside this triangle. Comment Number: 7. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Please add connecting walkways that link the sidewalk along the Mall Access Drive to the two courtyards. Comment Number: 8. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: Along the north property line, please call out that the existing fence is to remain and add a note as to transferring the property north of the fence to the adjoining property owners. Comment Number: 9. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: If under the original approval, Modifications of Standard were granted that are carried forward on this Major Amendment, please state on the plans in the form a General Note. Comment Number: 10. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: For Lot 4, the same comment applies about establishing unique features at each street -facing building entrance. Otherwise, there will excessive repetitiveness along Stanford Road. Comment Number: 11. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: All internal walkways at the head of the 17-foot long parking stalls need to be six feet in width. Comment Number: 12. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: On Lot 4, at the southerly Mall Access Drive, the public sidewalk along Stanford must be continued. Since this would be a new walk, it must be detached so that street trees can be planted in the parkway. Comment Number: 13.

Otherwise, the pattern becomes repetitious. Comment Number: 2. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: The applicant is reminded that in order to comply with Section 3.8.30(F)(2), there needs to be at least three distinctly different building models throughout the entire project. Compliance with this standard will require a demonstrable difference between the various building models and that such variety is substantive and not merely consist of marginally different accent features. For Lot 3, however, the applicant must go further and is encouraged to further differentiate the eight buildings by providing a unique, street -facing building entrance on a per building basis. There must be eight individual entry canopies, materials, colors and accents that define each building in a distinctive manner that enlivens the streetscape. Each entry can be depicted with a detail. Otherwise, Lot Three is characterized by excessive repetitiveness. Comment Number: 3. Comment Originated: 05/20/2015 05/20/2015: All buildings on Lot Three are labeled two and three stories.
