this in the report and/or revise the design if necessary.
Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 11/15/2016
11/15/2016: Since the streets are existing, the site is required to capture and
treat/detain all portions of the street where it is feasible. In this case, it appears
the development plan is doing so. Therefore, the drainage calculations can be
completed without incorporating the portions of the street that are not able to be
captured by the site drainage design. Doing so should result in the ability to
increase the release rate from the detention ponds.

11/15/2016: As shown, the Landscape Plan does not meet the Detention Pond
Landscape Guidelines. Technically, neither does the grading, but it is
recognized that there is a significant grade issue on this site that makes
grading difficult. In light of that, additional and robust landscaping (i.e.
screening) will be needed around the detention ponds to mitigate the slopes
turning its back onto Horsetooth.

diversify by lowering amount of oak species and increasing other species
perhaps: Hackberry (C. occidentalis) or Catalpa (C. speciosa) in accordance
with species diversity standards outlines in LUC 3.2.1(D). Long-term the City of
Fort Collins has a desire not to rely too heavily on specific species for urban
tree canopy cover in case of drastic reductions in the future due to disease or
pest species, for example the reductions anticipated in the next 3-5 years due
