Sincerely: T ,,.✓( Ted Shepard Chief Planner Page 6 Topic: Water quality pond outlet details Number: 68 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/071 Please provide an actual water quality outlet box detail with the proposed outlet plates. The detail provided is an outdated one with the generic water quality plate detail, rather than the actual ones. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: Water/Wastewater Number: 64 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Revise the various notes on abandonment of water services to include the removal of the curb stops. Comments from Current Planning: As you are aware, Tract A', Rigden Farm is expected to develop in the near future. An illustrative site plan is attached for your information. The owners of Tract A, Rigden Farm, Timberline Church and the City of Fort Collins all generally agree that, at some point in the future, non -vehicular cross access between the two properties would provide multi -modal convenience for customers, parishioners, employees and the neighborhood. Since all parties agree that it would premature to construct cross access at this particular point in time, please add the following note to the Site Plan: "Timberline Church commits to work cooperatively with the owners or developers of Tract A, Rigden Farm in order to facilitate bicycle and pedestrian access between the two properties. Timberline Church acknowledges the mutual benefit of safe and practical cross access with Tract A, Rigden Farm. Accordingly, Timberline Church agrees to negotiate in good faith with owners or developers of Tract A, Rigden Farm in order to establish an equitable cost -sharing agreement for future improvements. Such agreement shall finalize the provision of any necessary easements or agreements for future construction of any facilities (such as but not limited to walkways, ramps, crosswalks, grading, landscaping, irrigation and the like) in order to implement convenient and efficient travel for bicyclists and pedestrians between the two properties." 2. Thank you for making the revisions to the Lighting Plan. Current Planning reinforces the comment from Dana Leavitt, Environmental Planner, that nine perimeter light fixtures be equipped with the house -side shield. 3. We remain concerned about adequate screening for the loading dock. Even with the ramp -down condition, the trucks and activity associated with this area needs to be effectively screened. The Rigden Farm mixed -use neighborhood is in close proximity to the north. 4. The Legal Description on the Site Plan could simply read: "Timberline Church P.U.D. A tract of land located in the West Half of Section 29, Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, City of Fort Collins, County of Larimer, State of Colorado." Page 5 Topic: Erosion Control Plans Number: 63 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please ad an erosion control schedule to the plan as well as the a schedule. Please provide some silt fence protection around the outlet pipe that will be bult out into the Foothills Channel. Topic: Grading Plans Number: 66 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please call out pond spillway location and elevation on the grading plans. Please provide erosion protection for the proposed spillway overflow structure downstream of the spillway. Is the existing pedestrian path the top of the spillway? Did you check path elevation? Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 34 Created: 3/13/2007 [4/24/07] Adjust tree locations to provide 10 foot minimum separation from all water mains. [3/13/07] Show water/sewer mains and service lines. Adjust plantings to meet separation requirements in Note 11 on Sheet 9 of Landscape Plan. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Topic: Landscape Plans Number: 65 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please specify how the disturbed area within the Foothills Channel where the pipe outlet from the detention pond is being installed will be re -vegetated. Re -vegetation should match existing seed mix for the channel. Topic: Phasing Plans Number: 61 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please label the current major amendment as Phase 1. Phase numbering should be clarified so that it includes only those phases that are being approved by these plans. Topic: Storm Sewer Profiles Number: 67 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please call out the ponding elevations in the parking lot on the storm line profiles. Topic: Utility Plans Number: 62 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please move storm manhole A2 for storm Line A north away from the Foothills Channel, in order to minimize potential grading impacts on channel. As currently designed the manhole is right at the edge of City property. Please realign new proposed outlet pipe so that it is more in line with the channel, it now comes out at a 90 degree angle, and could cause serious erosion along the channel bank. Page 4 Number: 37 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] The construction of the right turn lane appears to have a substantive impact on the CSU property. Sheet 13 of the construction plan set even shows a proposed contour line cutting through one of the buildings and a 25% grade from the sidewalk to that building. What is the plan for mitigating the impact to CSU? Will a building be removed? A letter of intent is required from CSU prior to a hearing. Number: 44 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Deeds of dedication were provided, which require a $250 Transportation Development Review Fee for each deed. Note that Sheri Langenberger had requested the emergency access easement as part of the minor amendment, which will likely be process through the minor amendment instead of the major amendment. [3/14/07] Will the various easement and right-of-way dedications be done via plat or deed? Number: 45 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07) Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right. turn lane. [3/14/07) A 15' utility easement is typically required behind the right-of-way. With the right turn lane being done, a 15' easement can't be done behind the right-of-way. The utility providers will need to okay this. Number: 58 Created: 4/23/2007 [4/23/07] The response letter indicated that the right turn lane into the site was removed after discussion with the church and traffic engineer consultant. In talking with the Traffic Engineer, he'd like a letter or information from the traffic engineer consultant as to why this is no longer being provided. Topic: Phasing Plans Number: 69 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07) Echoing Stormwater comments, please re -label the phasing plan as follows: "Major Amendment Phase" is "Phase 1" "Major Amendment Future Phase" is "Phase 2" "Major amendment" should just be removed from any indication on the plan set. It is my understanding that the existing building is intended to be Phase 1, this is problematic for the City, as we'd be issuing Phase 2 and Phase 3 DCP's for "Timberline Church Expansion" without a Phase 1. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Topic: Demolition Plans Number: 60 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Please indicate that the exiting outlet box and pipe in the existing pond is to be protected in place. Topic: Easements Number: 59 Created: 4/24/2007 [4/24/07] Will the existing and proposed drainage easements be vacated and dedicated by separate document ? If so please provide deeds.of dedication. Page 3 Number: 41 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. (Note that if the City's Traffic Engineer is okay with not constructing, the right turn lane, the plan set still reflects demo work occurring in this area.) [3/14/07] What is the hatched out area along Timberline on the plan set, and is the median being proposed for modification? Number: 43 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] Please show existing striping along Timberline in conjunction with the demo plan to verify if patching limits are appropriate. Number: 46 Created: 3/14/2007 (4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] Please provide a striping plan sheet that shows the right turn lane in conjunction with the existing lanes along Timberline. Number: 50 Created: 3/15/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/15/07] Please show existing Timberline Road (flowline curb and gutter, median, striping (on the striping and demo plan) up to the northern boundary of the overall site. Topic: General Number: 35 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] The response from Northern indicated that the minor amendment information on the construction plan set is to remain as the site contractor will be building off the plans. If this is the case, why is there a minor amendment being approved prior to this major amendment showing the exact information? It seems that the minor amendment should just then be withdrawn if the contractor isn't intending to build off the revised sheets of the minor amendment that shows this same information. I'd like to suggest a meeting with Northern, myself, and Sheri Langenberger who is reviewing the minor amendment. [3/14/07] . I'd like to see the minor amendment indications on the drawings to be "faded back" so that it is evident that the information shown in not being approved. With the assumption that the minor amendment will be approved prior to the major amendment, please add a note at the time of mylars for the major amendment indicating the approval date of the minor amendment. Number: 36 Created: 3/14/2007 (4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07) The right turn lane off of Timberline Road appears to fall short of turn lane length requirements. A variance request should be submitted addressing this. I don't foresee a concern with its approval, but it should at least be submitted for evaluation. (Note: This observation is based upon the present design submitted with a right turn lane that extends along the CSU property.)

Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: Construction Plan Number: 38 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07) Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] Please show additional existing contours on the CSU property in order to ascertain how the right turn lane construction ties into the existing property. Number: 39 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] The sidewalk crossing the driveway along Timberline appears awkward. I'd like to suggest keeping the sidewalk closer to Timberline to head straight across the driveway rather than bring it closer to the site. Number: 40 Created: 3/14/2007 [4/24/07] Carried over pending the City Traffic Engineer's okay in not constructing the right turn lane. [3/14/07] Additional design information is needed for the right turn lane prior to a hearing. What are existing flowline grades and spot elevations of the surrounding area? At the time of final a flowline profile and cross sections will be needed. Page 1,
