Topic: Erosion Control Noted — State permit processing
Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 03/30/2018
03/30/2018: The site disturbs more than 10,000 sq. ft. and therefore Erosion
and Sediment Control Materials need to be submitted. The erosion control
requirements can be located in the Stormwater Design Criteria under the
Amendments of Volume 3 Chapter 7 Section 1.3.3. a copy of the erosion
control requirements can be found at www.fcgov.com/eroison. The Erosion
Control Materials will need to be submitted at time of the first round of FDP.
Erosion Control Materials that were accepted for this site prior were based off
the old standards, therefore Erosion and Sediment Control Materials need to be
reworked and updated to meet the current standards then resubmitted for
review. Based upon the area of disturbance, a State permit for discharge of
stormwater from construction activity will be required since the site is over an
acre and this will need to be pulled before Construction Activities begin. If you
need clarification concerning the Erosion Control Material Requirements or
Comments presented above please contact myself. Jesse Schlam (970)

Thank you for providing the approved landscape plan from 2006. Since then,
the City of Fort Collins is not allowing any Ash species to be planted within City
Limits and especially not on City right-of-way. The invasive pest, Emerald Ash
Borer, will eventually reach Fort Collins and kill all untreated Ash trees. In an
effort to diversify the urban forest as well as to prevent the removal of more Ash
trees, please do not plant Fraxinus pennsylvanica as a part of this development.

Engineering would prefer that the applicant explore all site layout options to
allow Lot 1 to access Sunglow Ct., as was previously approved for this filing. If
it is determined that the proposed configuration is unable to utilize an access to
Sunglow Ct., then a shared direct access to Rock Creek Dr. would be
considered. An access to Rock Creek Dr. would have to meet all applicable
Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS) for location, spacing,
width, etc. Specifically refer to Chapters 7 and 9 for detailed criteria. Variance
requests will need to be submitted to Engineering for review and approval.
