11/24/2015: The Grass Buffer shown looks to be located within 4:1 sloped areas.
The maximum slope on a grass buffer should not exceed 10%. In addition, this
grass buffer is not located directly adjacent to an impervious area, so it's not really
contributing to MDCIA. If you don't need the grass buffer to meet the LID
requirements, I would consider eliminating it.

10/09/2015: Low Impact Development (LID) criteria are required for this site.
-For the single family residential areas:
o no less than 50% of any newly added impervious area must be treated using one
or a combination of LID techniques. Impervious area in this case is assumed to be
pavement areas, concrete areas (including an estimated area for private driveways),
and rooftop areas.
o the 25% permeable pavement areas does not apply to single family residential
areas and/or public streets and alleys. In this case, if some of the alleys are private,
the permeable pavers will still not be required.
-For portion or future areas of the site that are planned for commercial or
multi -family residential
o no less than 50% of any newly added impervious area must be treated using one
or a combination of LID techniques
o no less than 25% of any newly added pavement areas must be treated using a
permeable pavement technology that is considered and LID technique.
� An exhibit showing areas draining to each required LID feature will be required
prior to hearing.

11/24/2015: Per the email correspondence on 10-26-15 the invert of the ultimate
stormwater outfall pipe in the vicinity of Timberline Road should be approximately
4929.50. This elevation is to allow for adequate fall to Dry Creek. Since the detention
pond invert looks to be a 4927.00, I'm not sure how you're making this work. This
concept needs to be revised/corrected in the preliminary plans.
Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 11/24/2015
11/24/2015: The grading plans need to show the following items: slope labels within
the pond area, water surface elevations (WSEL's) for all the WQCV elements (sand
filters and the water quality ponds), WSEL for the 100-year water surface in the
detention pond and for the 2x the 100-year water surface, swale cross -sections, the
size of the interim outlet pipe and the ultimate outlet pipe, include a label for both the
interim and ultimate stormwater outfall pipe so the function is understood. The
normal operating water surface in the irrigation pond should also be shown. These
items need to be included in the preliminary plans.
Comment Number: 13 Comment Originated: 11/24/2015
11/24/2015: It seems that the intended function of the split swale is to direct certain
basins to the water quality pond, and then separately direct other basins to the grass
swale. Since the separation between the two swales is lower than the water surface
elevation, I'm not clear on how this really works. Please clarify.
Comment Number: 14 Comment Originated: 11/24/2015

11/24/2015: • Grass Buffer discussion on page 7 needs more design information
and validation.
• The split swale Flowmaster output shows the water surface elevation above the
split in between the two swales. For this to truly function as a "split swale" there
needs to be 1' of freeboard between the two.
• The EDB and LID sizing spreadsheets look to be incomplete in some areas
and/or they indicate underdrains, forebays, and concrete trickle channels that are
not shown on the plans. The information in the drainage report needs to also be
apparent on the plans.
• Both EDB WSEL's exceed the pond banks in their respective areas.
• See the redlined drainage report for other minor comments.

-Include a Basin Summary Table
-Existing Contours need to be labeled
-Does the public park have its own basin? Have you accounted for/estimated future
imperviousness at the park?
-It's difficult to see where the extents of the Extended Detention Basins are versus
the detention area. Please try to clarify/differentiate this with different linetypes or
hatching.
-Detention information is required: water surface elevations, release rates, volumes,
etc.
-The interim detention pond outlet strategy is provided. What about the ultimate
detention pond outlet that will need to drain towards a master planned channel along
Timberline? This ultimate condition outlet will need to be worked into the plans and
room for the outlet channel will need to be accommodated for in the site.

however, I don't see permeable pavers on the plans anywhere. Are you proposing to
use these somewhere? You are not required to install permeable pavers in the
ROW and since all the roadways and alleys appear to be planned to be dedicated
as public ROW, you are not required to use pavers except in the future multi -family
parcels or at the future park.

Comments:
1) Provide calculations for sanitary sewer collection system showing proposed
contributing flows and rational for sewer sizing. Of primary interest is the 18-inch
trunk sewer and the 21-inch offsite sewer.
2) Boxelder Sanitation District is considering a different alignment for the offsite
sewer. This needs
to be coordinated with the Owner and BSD.
The District has more than adequate capacity to service the property referenced

RE: MJA150005 — Replat of East Ridge Minor Amendment Type I
East Larimer County Water District (District) has reviewed the documents received
regarding the above project and has the following comments:
1. Utility Plans: General layout of the water distribution network appears appropriate;
details will be worked out with design engineer when final design process starts. Of
note, for the 12-inch waterline to be installed as part of the project the District will
require plan and profile sheets.
2. Stormwater and Sanitary Sewer Coordination: The District assumes plan and
profile sheets of these utilities will be submitted with future review packages at
which time a review of potential conflicts will be conducted.
3. Landscape Plans: Future landscape plans will need to show water lines and
service lateral locations in relation to landscaping to insure adequate separation.
The District typically requires a minimum of 8-ft of separation from center of trees to
the District service line.
4. Lot Configuration/Utility Coordination in Front of Lots: The landscape plans show
a typical lot arrangement (drawing LP501) with only 6-ft of separation called out from
center of a tree to a water/sewer service, which is lower than the District typically
allows (see also note above). Drawing LP501 does not show other utilities, i.e. gas,
electric, cable, which brings concern to the District that some of the small lot
frontages may encounter conflicts in utility separation if trees are required.
Please contact me if there are additional questions regarding this review.
Sincerely,
Randy Siddens, P.E.

Tree Inventory and Mitigation Plan Comments:
Provide a written report by a private qualified certified arborist on the suitability of
retention of the following trees so documentation on intent to retain or remove these
major trees can be incorporated into the plans.
T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T9, T11, T12, T13, T34, and T35
Mark the following trees to retain.
T29, T31, T20 and T21
Mark the following trees for removal.
T22, T 23, T24, T32, T34 and T37
Mark all other trees and those not recommended in the arborist report to remove as
Keep in place as long as feasible and advisable.
Replace tree inventory note number 1:
All trees not shown specifically for removal or for retention shall be kept in place as
long as possible based on the ongoing evaluation and recommendation of a private
certified arborist. Evaluation and recommendation by the private arborist shall
consider tree health, tree condition, habitat contribution, hazardous conditions or
impact from construction.
Replace inventory note number 3:
Trees not shown for removal shall pruned and maintained by a private Fort Collins
Licensed Arborist following the objectives of tree health, safety and habitat
contribution. Minimal pruning may be advised in habitat areas. After initial pruning
and maintenance any trees on City property shall be maintained by the City of Fort
Collins.
Add this tree inventory note:
Prior to construction a tree pruning and removal plan shall be prepared by a certified
arborist holding a City of Fort Collins Arborist License. This plan shall be submitted
to the City Forester, City Environmental Planner and Project Landscape Architect for
approval. The plan shall address the management objectives of tree health, safety,
species suitability and habitat contribution. Tree removal or pruning that needs to
occur after the initial tree maintenance has been completed shall be presented by
the Developer or HOA for City approval.

Provide upsized mitigation trees for tree not shown to retain. Mitigation trees should
be sized as follows.
Canopy shade tree 3.0 inch caliper
Ornamental tree 2.5 inch caliper
Evergreen tree 8 feet height
Coffetrees would likely be hard to find as 3.0 inch caliper mitigation trees. Forestry
advises using honeylocust, hackberry or Greenspire linden at mitigation trees
because of their better availability. If not already provided clearly show mitigation
trees on the plan and in the plant list.

10/01/2015: The code allows for varying buffer widths within a project, with the goal
of meeting the average of the required buffer widths on the site. For this project,
please provide the following through a vignette/detail on the site plan:
6 The total area required for a straight 1006 buffer around the 2.2 acres of
mitigated wetland versus the proposed total buffer area.
6 Please add dimensions for the buffer widths around the mitigated wetlands so
staff can evaluate these smaller buffer widths and uses within the buffer zone. Refer
to Section 3.4.1(E) of the Land Use Code for allowable uses within a buffer zone
6 The location and area for the mitigated and enhanced 2.3 acres of upland
habitat.

10/01/2015: A mitigation and monitoring plan will need to be developed to indicate
how these two Natural Habitats Areas - wetland with buffer and upland - will be
installed and monitored to ensure success. The wetland will be designed as a
wetland and will have responding success criteria, e.g., a wetland soil moisture
regime. The upland will be designed and monitored for the establishment of native
trees, shrubs, and grasses/forbs, and all areas will be evaluated for the
establishment of native and desirable plants, with limited weeds and bare spots.

10/01/2015: The Mitigation and Monitoring Plan document will be attached to the
development agreement. A letter of credit to ensure the Natural Habitat areas can
be established per the success criteria will be required. Please prepare an estimate
for what it would cost to recreate the wetland and upland habitat areas, should the
success criteria not be met.

11/24/2015: The Overall Development Plan calls for an access between Sykes
Drive and Crusader Street. Will this connect to Vicot Way and align with Comet
Street? Curb returns, sidewalk ramps, etc along Timberline Road will need to be
constructed with this development. Type III barricades will be needed until such
road/access is needed.

11/24/2015: The street frontage along Timberline Road will need to be constructed
in the ultimate location between Sykes Drive and Crusader Drive. Show how the
transitions to the north of Sykes Drive and to the south of Crusader Drive will work.
How will drainage from curb and gutter to swales work? A striping plan will be
needed to depict how Timberline Road will look with the ultimate location of
curb/gutter/sidewalk along the proposed property to the east and the existing road to
the west. How will turn lanes work? Please show transitions to the north and south.
The Timberline Road design will be required prior to hearing.
09/29/2015: A road design is needed for Timberline Road, since both Sykes Drive
and Crusader Street both tie into it. As a part of this project, the Developer is
responsible for the construction of their property frontage
