09/05/2017: Please note that all City of Fort Collins Utility Customers are
subject to City Code requirements for wastewater. These requirements include
Section 26-306 Wastewater Discharge Permit Requirements and Section
26-332 Prohibitive Discharge Standards. A permit may be required depending
on activities on the site; however, discharge standards apply to every customer,
both large and small, regardless of what activities take place on the site.
Please contact Industrial Pretreatment, (970)221-6900, to discuss these
requirements and how they apply to this development.

09/05/2017: These plans show proposed plaza improvements; however, these
improvements do not appear to be addressed in the drainage report beyond
the storm sewer sizing. The basins draining to these proposed ROW inlets are
not clearly identified or discussed. These improvements need to be addressed
to describe what is proposed and show that Stormwater requirements are
being met (it appears the water quality / LID requirements are being met with
the proposed Filterra Biofiltration System, but it must be verified).
It also needs to be identified who will be responsible for maintenance of
proposed plaza improvements.

09/05/2017: On the Utility Plan (North) the existing single-phase transformer
location shown to be moved to the opposite side of the alley will need to be
replaced by a drive -over secondary box to have a place to keep all of the
existing terminations from the new transformer location.

09/05/2017: On the Utility Plan (North), the new 3-phase transformer location
shown in the 8' utility easement will need to have a switch cabinet or an oval
vault located somewhere close to the new transformer to feed the new
transformer out of. THis will also have to be in the 8' utility easement.

09/08/2017: Please schedule a pre -submittal meeting with Building Services
for this project. Pre -Submittal meetings assist the designer/builder by assuring,
early on in the design, that the new projects are on track to complying with all of
the adopted City codes and Standards listed below. The proposed project
should be in the early to mid -design stage for this meeting to be effective.
Applicants of new projects should email scarter@fcgov.com to schedule a
pre -submittal meeting. Applicants should be prepared to present site plans,
floor plans, and elevations and be able to discuss code issues of occupancy,
square footage and type of construction being proposed.

09/05/2017: Any relocation or modification to existing electric facilities will be
at the expense of the owner/developer. If Light & Power's existing electric
facilities are to remain within the limits of the project they must be located within
3
Contech Filterra Biofiltration System. In checking online it appears that the unit
keeps the filtration contained within the storm drainage system and does not
allow for infiltration into the native surrounding soil, but I'd like further information
and then coordination with both Forestry and Capital Projects.

09/06/2017: The design of the patching along Linden Street would need to be
expanded to ensure that it is either halfway through a vehicular travel lane or to
the lane line. Perhaps it is also possible that the patching shown in locations
can be reduced such that it is depicted to correspond to existing lane lines
shown on C500. Additional discussion with our Construction Inspection
Manager should occur to look over options and potential requirements.

09/06/2017: 1 didn't make the connection that there is offsite storm drainage
pipe swale work along with construction easement that is needed from
properties to the north and not aware of letters of intent from the property
owner(s) prior to hearing. At this point, I would want to understand and
coordinate with Stormwater as to what offsite easements are being obtained
and verification on their legal descriptions, type, and format.

09/06/2017: Discussion on construction staging should be had to understand

- A minimum of 20ft clearance for overhead obstructions will be required for
front load type service vehicles
- Service vehicles will most likely need to back into the parking structure to
service their containers, locating the enclosure closure to the garage entrance
will make this safer and more efficient.
- What is the width of the proposed service gates? Wider gates will allow more
efficient servicing by haulers and reduce damage to the enclosure from
dumpsters impacting the narrow opening.
-Adding a door -less entry to the enclosure for pedestrians will provide safer and
more efficient access for residents.

09/06/2017: We'll look to schedule a separate follow-up meeting with Kyle
Lambrecht to go over the FDP frontage information/design shown along Willow
Street. Understanding how the curb and gutter was established both horizontally
and vertically (perhaps using information from Interwest?) and then placement of
notes on the plans to indicate what sort of external designs might be used would
be helpful.

09/06/2017: As part of the meeting referenced in the previous comment, the
design elements of the sidewalk/parkway streetscape between the buildings
and the curb and gutter should be further discussed with the project's proposed
establishment of pavers, sidewalks, and landscaping that is shown more
specifically on the civil plans (but is left more general on the site plan). Note on
the civil plans that there is some discrepancy between the plan sheets on
whether asphalt or concrete sidewalks are proposed along the building on
Willow Street.
