The new water line needs to connect to the 12-inch main which is located on the west side of Lemay. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The City would prefer the existing water service that is being used for irrigation be abandoned at the main and the irrigation tap be fed from the new water line in Doctors Lane. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: Will an irrigation tap be needed for the north parking lot?

Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 04/21/2015 04/21/2015: Please tie the coordinate values shown for utilities to the project boundary. We would prefer that this be done by adding property corner values to each sheet, or showing the property corner values on the horizontal control plans and adding a note to each sheet with coordinate values. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/21/2015 04/21/2015: There are line over text issues. See redlines. Topic: Landscape Plans Page 4 of 6 Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: An overall exhibit showing the Poudre Valley Hospital property with proposed right-of-way and easement dedications and assumed easement vacations by separate document should be provided to get a better idea of how the proposed development will work with the separate document dedications/vacations. (In looking further into this however, 1 question why this wasn't done via a replat, especially since a plat was needed for the parking lot on the north side of Doctors Lane, which could have been approved concurrently at hearing.) Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The median shown in Doctors Lane needs to be built to a modified detail for median curbs (the "back-to-back" curb look) with the underdrain system. Copies of two options for this detail will be provided. The proposed landscaping of the median should be verified in terms of having sufficient width for the back-to-back curb look. The 10 feet of planting area dimensioned on the civil horizontal control plan will be reduced to about 7 feet with the additional curb. The underdrain itself shown on the grading plan is depicted not in the center of the median but offset to the north, which would not be per the detail options. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The northeast corner of Lemay Avenue and the private drive entrance/Robertson Street needs to have directional access ramps installed to City/ADA standards. It's awkward to have this one area abutting the property along Lemay Avenue not have ADA/City compliant access ramps. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The right-of-way dedication for the right turn lane seems like it could be reduced in the drive approach to follow a straight line from the back of the detached sidewalk on the south side of the driveway. This would reduced the amount of the driveway that would need to be built in concrete per our standards and the note that was provided indicating concrete to the property line. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: From my perspective (though I'll defer to Martina). I don't see the need for the striping of crosswalks, with the exception of the mid -block crossing on Doctors Lane. Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The horizontal control plan shows a sign at Lemay and Doctors that abutts the new sidewalk on Lemay. Signs need to be offset a minimum of 2 feet from any public street sidewalk. Comment Number: 13 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: Please show where existing right-of-way line/property boundary is south and east of the right-of-way dedications by separate document for Lemay Avenue and Doctors Lane to understand how the dedications will result in property boundary lines tying into existing. This should also be reflected in the overall exhibit in Comment #4. Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: The presumed vacation of easements by separate document will require a 2 week review response time from the utility providers once the legal description and fee is paid. It is suggested that this process get started sooner rather than later if there are timing concerns.

Please adjust to have the flowline at no more than 2% in the area where the access ramps intersect. Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: It also appears that the 2% maximum for the access ramps isn't being met for at least the access ramps intersecting out to the new northern driveway. Additional instances may be occurring but cannot be verified with the spot elevations provided. Comment Number: 11 Comment Originated: 04/2212015 04/22/2015: Please ensure that LCUASS details are updated per the link: hftp://www.larimer.org/engineering/GMARdStds/GMARdStds.htm Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: A response to a previous comment related to this noted to "refer to the plat and legal description for the property". I believe that the plat is correct in that Poudre Valley Hospital Third Filing is "being a replat of lots 1-5, Humphrey Medical Center and a parcel located located..." However the overall project Poudre Valley Hospital, A -Wing Replacement is not just the boundary of the plat titled Poudre Valley Hospital Third Filing but comprises of the summation of both the boundary of this plat for Poudre Valley Hospital Third Filing and the boundary of the plat for Poudre Valley Hospital (I had this incorrectly identified as Lot 2 of the Poudre Valley Memorial Hospital Addition". I believe the civil plan information under the title should be revised accordingly to reflect it's not just the land now being plated, and also the site and landscape plans should be describing the legally described properties within which the Poudre Valley Hospital, A Wing Replacement comprises of. The final plan boundary the development plan and corresponding development agreement legal description would be Poudre Valley Hospital Third Filing and Poudre Valley Hospital. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04/22/2015: Continuing on a similar theme from the previous comment, the plans need to show the existing easements, building envelopes, and other legal definition from the plat for Poudre Valley Hospital to ascertain whether existing legal delineations are impacted by the proposal. It's apparent to me that portions of the expansion go into existing easements that would be to vacated, though the utility providers might need additional utility/drainage easements dedicated. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 04/22/2015 04122/2015: In addition to easement dedications/vacations potentially needed on the Poudre Valley Hospital what is a "Proposed Metes and Bounds Line For Building By Separate Document", and is this intended to be done via a City process? There's a City process to vacate easements by separate document, but there is no City process to modify a building envelope, short of a replat. I'm concerned with what the intentions on this might be and whether this process can actually be done.

Comment Summary: Department: Planning Services Contact: Ted Shepard, 970-221-6343, tshepard(cDfcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1. Comment Originated: 04/10/2015 04/10/2015: The Final Landscape Plan is now sufficiently detailed and includes effective screening of the ambulance bay from Lemay Avenue. For clarification, please specify the height of the two Bosnian Pine along Lemay. Are these six or eight feet high? Comment Number: 2. Comment Originated: 04/10/2015 04/10/2015: The Lighting Plan now specifies that the S-6 fixture under the canopies will be flush mount and flat lens in compliance with Section 3.2.4. But, overall, the Lighting Plan does not provide any information about watts and lumens per fixture. Since L.E.D. lighting is relatively new for outdoor applications, and since the color tone of L.E.D. is much brighter with a higher color temperature than metal halide or high pressure sodium, Staff needs more information to ensure that the site is not excessively illuminated. The Lighting Plan should provide additional information as to the wattage and lumen output of each fixture at the specified "L.E.D. Count' instead of listing a table with multiple L.E.D. Counts. Finally, the Lighting Plan graphics for the Type S5 fixture does not show how the light source is shielded. Comment Number: 3. Comment Originated: 04/10/2015 04/10/2015: Staff is not familiar with an "Exterior Surface Mounted Decorative Luminous Cube" nor how it applies to a canopy. Please provide a cut sheet for this fixture and how it is applied to a canopy. Comment Number: 4. Comment Originated: 04/10/2015 04/10/2015: The graphics depicted on P3 of P3 are confusing. Please describe th views that are illustrated. Again, cut sheets would be helpful. Comment Number: 04/10/2015: Comment Originated: 04/10/2015 Page 1 of 6
