Please update the contact list names for Fort Collins Utilities as it is outdated. Topic: Plat Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 05/29/2014: Minimum easement width for sanitary sewer is 30 feet (15 feet each side of the sewer). This will apply to the existing sewer crossing the site and the new proposed sewers. Page 15 of 15 Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The TIS acknowledges the need for a southbound right turn lane at Lemay / Lincoln, and this development is currently proposing to add 15% to that movement. This improvement is not shown in the plans. Will this be a variance request? Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: This TIS acknowledges that at the site access and Lemay the northbound right turn will warrant a right turn lane. The warrant is 40. The proposed turns are 106. The TIS recommends not installing the lane since it is'temporary'. Will this be a variance request? Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The long term geometry at new Lemay and Duff includes a northbound right turn lane and a westbound left turn lane. The ultimate layout (and ROW dedicated now) should accommodate this, and Duff should be built for this. Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: There is some parking shown to be very close to intersections. (Such as site access to new Lemay). Are parking setbacks to ROW met? Throat distances to major intersecions (such as Lemay and International) should be reviewed. Topic: Traffic Impact Study Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The TIS acknowledges that the pedestrian LOS is not met. Additional information on what is not met, why, and to what extent Capstone IS providing ped facilities I think will be needed as the project moves forward. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/1412015: The TIS notes that three intersection do not meet LOS standards. Additional information/narrative/explanation on these specific intersections, and to what extent Capstone is impacting these intersections (especially Lemay/Buckingham and Lemay/Vine) I think will be needed as the project moves forward.

This would allow for on -site mitigation of the wetlands (0.22 acres) and serve as an attractive amenity for the site. There also appears to be shallow groundwater in this area. 01/13/2015: This comment was addressed with the following note: A wetland mitigation area is noted on the site and landscape plans at the location noted. Additional area is allotted in the detention area as well. Final design for these areas will be included with FDP. However, it was unclear in the response if the ditch will be buried. Please confirm whether the ditch is being buried or not. It appears so on the plans, but please confirm.

Please submit a letterfrom a Professional Ecological Consultant verifying that from a hydrology perspective, but also based upon the soils report and any other data, they believe that the current plans should support wetlands in the chosen locations. Please have the Ecological Consultant also submit recommended wetland plant mixes and plugs. Please use plugs, not seeds.

Comment Number: 28 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: There's been recent "in the field" evaluations done by PFA on their ability to navigate narrow roadways with features such as neckdowns at intersections, with the discovery that they've been unable to navigate turning movements in instances. We'll need to coordinate with PFA on providing turning template information for review. The turning movements at Cottage Drive and North Club House Drive will be needed as a public street intersection. PFA may want additional private roadway intersections evaluated as well. Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 25 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: The Landscape Plan doesn't label the sight distance easement shown on the plat and shows several Vanderwolfs Pine trees encroaching onto the sight distance easement. Only limbed deciduous trees can be within a sight distance easement per the notes on the plat, and the landscaping would need to be revised with the pine trees out of the easement. Topic: Plat Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 05/28/2014 01/14/2015: This item appears to still be a concern. The plat still depicts this area as right-of-way. 05/28/2014: Our understanding of the 100' existing right-of-way indicated on the plat per reception number 88025752 is that this is not actually right-of-way. The plat should be reflecting that this development proposal dedicated the 100 feet (in addition to the 7.5 feet). Comment Number: 27 Comment Originated: 01/14/2015 01/14/2015: I'll defer to PFA on this, but typically PFA would want the emergency access easements physically depicted on the plat and encompassing only the drive areas.

It's unclear how the alignment with bike lanes is to occur. Page 3 of 15 Comment Number: 19 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Related to the comment above, please consider belly bands in general at the 2nd story level and at gable ends where gables face streets, as on sheet 1. Images shown at the neighborhood meeting included such band details as either a single board, or a band with an architectural detail in the band (in a case where it worked in conjunction with board and batten siding). Comment Number: 20 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Board and batten siding is featured in character images shown at the public neighborhood meeting, but all 195 units seem to be shown with uniform lap siding. Please consider this as a variation in the family of buildings. Comment Number: 21 Comment Originated: 01/1312015 01/13/2015: Please consider variation in other details such as comer boards, bracket details on gable ends, lintels/head casings above windows, and porch posts and details. Comment Number: 22 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Question for the meeting: do faux shutters open? WhaQis faux? Faux wood, or dummy windows? Some sheets show them open, most show them closed. The notes refer to sheet A 3.0� � is that a building plan not included in this plan set? Comment Number: 23 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Porches: Some are shown as 3.5' stoops with minimal/skimpy entry roof features. Please consider increasing these dimensions to provide more human scale definition at front entries. Also, please consider making some of these gables instead of shed style — i.e. on sheet 2. Porches: some are shown as bona fide porches but are less than 6' deep. 6' is a minimum useable dimension — please increase to 6' minimum and consider variation among 6' and 8' to allow for actual use with chairs rather than a faux visual effect of interactive space. Comment Number: 24 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Please add significant variation to the 5-unit "sidewinder" building front and rear elevations.

Comment Summary: Department: Planning Services Contact: Clark Mapes, 970.221-6225, cmaaes(a)fcgov.com Topic: Building Elevations Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Elevs. Overall, the elevations show a family of buildings with visual interest and interaction that appear suitable for the density and close proximity of the buildings. Consistency with the character shown at the public neighborhood meeting is important, and details are crucial at the intimate scale of the neighborhood. For the meeting, staff wishes to clarify some questions and discuss some detail comments. Comment Number: 17 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: Will the window trim have more depth and dimension than the siding? Context far this question is that large uniform walls and flatness in details has been a problem in recent projects, with window trim being a particular missed opportunity for depth and interest. Comment Number: 18 Comment Originated: 01/13/2015 01/13/2015: The 'clapboard" siding can provide a positive human scale character but the notes describe it as 7" exposure. This should be 5-6" exposure to be more consistent with the traditional style of the buildings. Elevations show 6" exposure and that should be the maximum. Thus the notes box should be revised on all sheets. In traditional buildings the exposure often varies among buildings, and even on individual buildings, which can reduce impersonal uniform effects. Please consider such variation such as reducing the exposure in gable ends facing streets, perhaps separated by a belly band, and possibly then painting gables a different color. Page 1 of 15
