c. If construction lasts for more than 6 months, you will have to file a permit for
fugitive dust control with Lorimer County.
6. Fire Department:
a. No comment.
7. Light and Power:
a. The existing street light can be moved if necessary, but at developer's expense.
b. Normal development fees apply.
8. Transportation:
a. Be aware that this site is located right near a stop on the Mason Street Cooridor.
This is good news to the future potential redevelopment of your site. The Mason
Street Corridor will be a multi -modal bus, bike, and pedestrian corridor running
along the railroad right-of-way from Downtown to south of Harmony Road.
Ultimately, it is anticipated that busses will run along the corridor at 10 minute
intervals.
b. You will probably be required to provide detached sidewalk along McClelland.
c. McClelland will probably require additional width.
d. McClelland is a minor arterial (42' from centerline), and with the ditch on the west,
it may be necessary to shift the road to the east.
9.- Current Planning:
a. Refer to Section 3 (General Development Standards), and Section 4.17 (Commercial
District (C)) in the Land Use Code for the standards that apply to your, propose
development. The Land Use Code is available to view on the internet at www.ci.fort-
collins.co.us/CITY HALL/CODES.
b. If there is a subdivision plat as part of this development request, you will be
required to provide a copy of "Certificate of Taxes Due" with the mylar of the
subdivision plat when it is brought to the City's Current Planning Department for
recording. The certificate may be obtained from the Larimer County Treasurer's
Office and must reflect a zero (0) balance before the City will accept the mylar.
Lorimer County is requiring this document, showing no outstanding property taxes,
before they will record subdivision plats.
c. The first step should be to proceed with a formal request for an engineering
variance to determine if the proposed driveway location will be allowed by the
Engineering Department.

a. This site is in the Foothills drainage basin where the new development fee is
$6,525/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. The site is in inventory
grid #7M.
b. The standard drainage and erosion control reports and construction plans are
required and they must be prepared by a professional engineer registered in
Colorado.
c. Onsite water quality and water quantity detention is required. The water quality
extended detention must be in pervious areas but the water quantity detention can
be on the paved areas. The standard water quantity detention release rate is the 2
year historic unless an analysis can justify a higher release rate or the previous design
may dictate the release rate. (McClellands Office Park)
d. There is an existing stormsewer along the north property line. This would be the
logical outfall for the site. The previous design report should be checked to verify the
design release rate in case it is different than the 2 year historic rate.
3. Engineering Department:
a. You may be required to have a traffic study. Contact Eric Bracke to determine if
one is required.
b. The Street Oversizing fee for car sales is $3.99 per square foot.
c. May need additional Right-of-way and utility easements to be dedicated in
accordance to Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards.
d. We encourage you to re -plat the property. It would be the cleanest way to
effectively manage the easements and dedications.
e. Need to check driveway separation distance (660' minimum per standards). The
driveway location you propose will require an engineering variance (submitted by a
P.E.) for this separation requirement. It's likely this variance would be approved,
but you should request this early so you don't too far along before you know if it's a
show stopper.
f. Any damaged existing sidewalk will have to be replaced.
g. We need a sidewalk along McClelland designed to standards, including directional
ramps.
h. You may be required to have a Development Agreement, a Development Construction
Permit, and Utility Plans.
4. Water & Wastewater Utility:
Location: IV of Swallow Road and E of McClelland Drive (M-7)
Proposal: Lot expansion for Ed Carroll Motors
Ex. Mains: 6-inch water and 8-inch sewer in easements within the site
Comments: Maintain/provide easements for the existing water/sewer mains. Show mains on site and
landscape plans and maintain required landscape separation distances. The water
conservation standards for landscape and irrigation will apply to the project. If any services
are needed, PIF's and water rights will be due at time of building permit.
5. Natural Resources:
a. If there any prairie dogs on site, they will have to be relocated or humainly
eradicated.
b. Native grasses and plant materials should be used wherever appropriate, and
bluegrosses should be minimized.
