Roughness coefficients (Manning's n values) and downstream starting water surface elevations
' are also the same as the original study. The increased detail used to represent existing
conditions on the property resulted in a 0.05-foot increase in water surface elevation at Cross
Section 1490 just upstream of the property.
' Developed conditions through the property were modeled by adjusting cross sections and
adding encroachments to reflect the design configuration. The HEC-2 special culvert routine
was used to model the extension of Glenmoor Drive across the drainage channel. Several
' design configurations were modeled, all consisting of an improved grass lined channel that
follows the alignment of the existing drainage ditch. A Manning's n value of 0.035 was used for
the ditch, consistent with City of Fort Collins drainage criteria. A final design was arrived at that
' consists of a trapezoidal channel with a 35 foot base width and 4:1 sideslopes. The channel
invert is approximately one foot below existing grade at the downstream (east) property
boundary, and follows a constant 0.5 percent grade through the property. Three 25H X 12'W
reinforced concrete box culverts were used for the Glenmoor Drive road crossing. Several
' different culvert crossings were considered, consisting of both multiple reinforced concrete
pipes and reinforced concrete box culverts. The analysis showed that the concrete box culverts
would be necessary since the reinforced concrete pipe culverts would create unacceptable
' backwater upstream. No road overtopping was computed for the final design configuration.
Although the City of Fort Collins drainage criteria allow 6-inch overtopping for the 100-year
event, this would not be acceptable in this situation due to the resulting backwater upstream.
Figure 2 shows existing and final design channel grades and computed 100-year water surface
elevations. The computed 100-year water surface elevations are compared in Table 3. The
results show that the final design has only minimal impacts to water surface elevations adjacent
' to and upstream of the property. The maximum rise adjacent to the property upstream of the
Glenmoor Drive crossing is approximately 0.2 feet (cross sections 1135 and 1270). The rise
just upstream of the property (cross section 1490) is 0.08 feet. Since no floodway has been
' developed for the West Plum drainage, encroachments which allow up to 0.5 ft rise in the water
surface should be allowed. This analysis shows that the proposed improvements are well
within these limits.
I hope these results support your drainage plan. Please give us a call if you have any
questions.
Sincerely,
rick, Ph.D., P.

Re: Hydrologic and Hydraulic analysis to support drainage plan for proposed Glenmoor Drive
Subdivision
Dear Mr. Glover:
This letter summarizes our investigations performed to support the drainage plan for the
proposed Glenmoor Drive Subdivision. The proposed development is located in the West Plum
Street Basin and will encroach into the 100-year floodplain. The investigations were performed
to (1) determine if on -site detention would be required due to increased runoff from the .
development, and (2) to evaluate the impact of the proposed floodplain encroachment on water
surface elevations.
The impact of the development on peak flows in the main drainage channel was analyzed using
the SWMM hydrologic model for the West Plum Street Basin Master Drainage Plan. The model
as developed for the master plan reflected full development of the basin. As part of a
subsequent study to determine the impacts of the Glenmoor PUD on peak flows, the model was
modified to reflect existing development in the basin. This model, with the effects of the 3-acre
Glenmoor PUD included, formed the baseline condition for determining the impact of the
Glenmoor Drive Subdivision.
Figure 1 shows the complete basin model and identifies the location of the Glenmoor Drive
Subdivision in the basin. Table 1 shows the changes in percent impervious area made to
simulate the effect of the proposed development. The Glenmoor Drive Subdivision was
assumed to develop 50 percent impervious area which resulted in weighted percent impervious
areas of 31 and 26 percent for subbasins 16 and 24, respectively. Table 2 summarizes the
computed peak flows for the 2- and 100-year events. The results show only a 1 cfs increase in
peak flows for both events downstream of the development. This represents an insignificant
impact on peak flows in the West Plum Street Basin, and therefore on -site detention is not
necessary. Printouts of the model results are included for your review.
A second study was performed to determine if the proposed encroachment into the floodplain
will adversely affect water surface elevations adjacent to and upstream of the development.
For this analysis, the HEC-2 water surface profile model developed for the West Plum Street
Basin Master Drainage Plan was utilized. Six additional cross sections were added to the
model to provide a more detailed description of hydraulic conditions through the property. The
additional cross sections were developed using the February 8, 1995, topographic survey
performed by Stewart & Associates, Inc. Where the cross sections extended off the Stewart &
Associates map, topographic information from the City of Fort Collins 1"=100' scale topographic
map of the area (dated May, 1974) was utilized.
Plate 1 shows the cross section locations. Discharges in the model, representing the 100-year
event under full basin development, are the same as those in the original master plan study.
