Department: Traffic Operation Contact: Martina Wilkinson, 970-221-6887, mwilkinson@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 02/24/2016: CDOT has confirmed the comment below. It should be noted that poor level of service is expected at the access point (across from Den rose Court). Improvements (such as a roundabout) would not be constructed by CDOT, and if a better LOS is desired, would be the responsibility of the applicant. 02/24/2016: We'll forward any further comments from CDOT. Note that the right in only entrance to the old frontage road needs to be emergency access only, and no 4-way stop at the Maverick entrance will be allowed. 01/06/2016: The TIS is in review with CDOT. We'll forward any comments from them to you. The recommendation for an all -way stop at the property entrance and frontage road in the long term will require discussion.

Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 01/05/2016 02/25/2016: I've noted that the pond will be modified to increase volume. There is not currently an outlet control structure, and the outfall swale and pipes have not been properly maintained. An outlet structure will need to be constructed to provide water quality and limit the release rate to 2-year historic conditions. The outfall will need to be brought up to standard to allow the pond's release to reach Boxelder Creek. 01/05/2016: Please show that the existing detention pond is sufficient to handle the proposed development and release at the 2-year historic rate. If the existing pond is not sufficient, it will need to be modified. If modified, please provide evidence that the detention basin is in compliance with drain times per Colorado Revised Statute 37-92-602(8).

With only three Bacheri Spruce, and with only Buffalo Junipers, this level of landscaping does not mitigate the extent of the asphalt surfaces and building coverage. This area needs to be planted in a more dense fashion to soften the overall auto -related aspect of the development.

Please replace with a higher -quality fencing material (e.g., split rail, wood).

The balance of the canopy roof remains flat, with the exception of the minor feature on the right side of the street facing elevation. As proposed, the canopy is large and highly visible from the public roadways. More needs to be done to the canopy roof in order to mitigate its overall flatness and create some interest and variety to this large building component. Comment Number: 27 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: A flat -roofed canopy at this scale will not be recommended for approval. Please consider a pitched roof, hip or shed. Or, please consider a faux sloping mansard that is modified to create the appearance that the mansard roof covers the entire structure. Other options or combinations may be considered. The requirement for a pitched roof is also found in the 1-25 Sub Area Plan standards per Section 3.9.5(B). 02/24/2016: Carried over for emphasis, see above comment. Comment Number: 30 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016:ln order to ensure compliance with Section 3.5.3(E)(9), and as mentioned in Conceptual Review comment number 23, please add the following note to the Site Plan: "Exterior -mounted exposed neon/fiber/optic rope L.E.D. lighting, illuminated translucent materials (except signs), illuminated striping or banding, and illuminated product displays on appurtenant structures (e.g. fuel dispensers are prohibited." 02/24/2016: Carried Over. As mentioned, the lighting under the valence at the top of the wall of the store building is prohibited by this standard. Also, staff remains concerned about the product displays and advertising banners that are indicated to be placed on the canopy columns. Staff recommends that in order to comply with the standard, these displays and banners be placed inside the store. Comment Number: 32 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: On the Lighting Plan, there are fixtures, T-6 and T-11 that are listed in the schedule but not shown on the plan. If not on the plan, please remove. 02/24/2016: Carried Over. The response indicates that a letter is attached that addresses the comments but this letter has not been received. Comment Number: 33 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: The Lighting Plan schedule should include a column for quantity, and that the Light Loss Factor is 1.0, and that LED Kelvin temperatures should be reduced from 4,000 to 3,000 so as to be more compatible with surrounding public roadway lighting. 02/24/2016: Response letter has not been received. 3 „The plan as submitted will promote the general purpose of the �Landard for which the modification is required equally well or better than would a plan which complies with the standard for which a modification is requested.” 02/24/2016: Carried over. Staff recommends that the project narrative be revised to directly address how the alternative site plan addresses the building's relationship to the street and what features have been added that encourage pedestrian and bicycle connectivity. Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: Neither the Site nor Landscape Plan indicates the existing overhead power line along the north roadway. These are only shown on the ALTA Survey. Please indicate the status of these lines as a result of the proposed land development. Are they to be placed underground or removed? Do they belong to Public Service or R.E.A.? This status of these power lines may influence the types of trees to be planted along the north roadway. Comment Number: 23 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: Regarding the architectural elevations, Planning Services Conceptual Review comments numbers 14 6 21 remain unaddressed. 02/24/2016: Carried Over: Please note that while the perspective drawing is very helpful, we will need to see the actual dimensions of the projecting feature on the right side elevation. In addition, the projecting pilasters also need to be dimensioned. We need to be able to evaluate the depth of these projections to ensure that they are effective and not merely applied to the wall plane. Comment Number: 24 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: For example, on architectural elevation sheet A2.1, please provide a detail on the coping that is specified for the top of the wall. As stated at Conceptual Review, commercial buildings are required to have a distinctive top such as a sloping roof with overhangs and brackets, stepped parapets, mansard, faux mansard, or cornice treatments. As proposed, it appears that compliance relies on the 24-guage pre -finished metal coping. Without a detail, it is difficult to assess the depth of this building component and how this feature rises to the level of being a cornice treatment. 02/24/2016: Carried Over: The detail for the cornice appears to be more of a valence, with a recessed light fixture, versus a true cornice. The six-inch trim that hides the light fixture is not a cornice element. Both the trim piece and the light fixture must be removed. The top of the building must feature a true cornice. Also, please note that lighting around the perimeter of the top of the building is prohibited per Section 3.5.3(E)(9). Comment Number: 26 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016: One primary architectural feature that remains unaddressed is Conceptual Review comment number 20 regarding the overall design impact of the flat canopy roof.

Comment Summary: Department: Planning Services Contact: Ted Shepard, 970-221-6343, tshepard@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 01/06/2016: As you know, we have discussed the fundamental orientation of the building and canopy in relationship to the public streets and how Section 3.5.3 of the City's Land Use Code requires an orientation that differs from the proposal. The proposed layout will require a Modification of Standard to Section 3.5.3(C)(2) Orientation to Build -to Lines for Streetfront Buildings. 02/24/2016: Carried over for emphasis. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated 01/06/2016: In discussing the proposed orientation, the Statement of Planning Objectives refers to the "visibility and openness" concept and the "open feel and easy utilization of the facilities for the traveling general public and local consumers." While these observations may have merit, they do not directly address the fundamental aspect of the standard and any of the criteria by which City Staff can evaluate a Request for Modification of Standard. Section 2.8.2(H)(1-4) provides the four criteria by which a Modification of Standard can be supported. Of these four, only one would be applicable to the issue of building orientation. This criterion states: 01/06/2016 01/06/2016
