The Sterling House detention pond was built on-line. This project proposes enlarging that pond. However, it is recommended that this pond be pulled off-line since all of the Harmony Market Shopping Center currently drains through the Sterling House detention pond and is negatively affecting its operation. The drainage ditch along Lemay Avenue drains the Evangelical Covenant Church and other developments to the north and needs to be maintained by this development. The design of the site should take into account water quality considerations and Best Management Practices. The City recommends utilizing extended detention. Standard drainage and erosion control reports prepared by a Colorado licensed professional engineer will be required. Please contact Basil Harridan at 221-6589 with any questions regarding these comments. 4.

The Engineering Department stated that Utility Plans must be prepared by a Colorado licensed professional engineer. The Street Oversizing fee for this use is currently $7,292 per acre based upon the total building square footage. The project will be subject to the building permit fees in effect at the time of the issuance of building permit. A Transportation Impact Analysis will be required which addresses vehicle, bike, pedestrian and transit service. Additional right-of-way may need to be dedicated along Rule Drive or the sidewalk may need to be placed in a public access easement.

Please contact Mike Coley at 221-6750 with any questions regarding these comments. 6. The Transportation Planning Department stated that bicycle and pedestrian access in this area is critical. Direct pedestrian access is needed between this facility and the Sterling House PUD assisted living facility. Pedestrian connections to Lemay Avenue and the property to the north are needed.
