Yours Truly, Pete Wray Interim Director of Current Planning Page 8 [6/23/05] The width of the 9 unit and 8 unit buildings is shown on the site plan. What are the depths of those buildings? Number: 6 Created: 6/23/2005 [6/23/05] Show the distance from the buildings to at least 1 lot line. Number: 7 Created: 6/23/2005 [6/23/05] The typical parking stall width is shown. But I don't see the parking stall length(s) shown. Also, need to show the dimension of the various drive aisles. Some are shown, some aren't. For instance, what are the drive aisle widths in the parking lot between building D and F?, and the parking lot serving buildings A, B, and C?, etc. Number: 8 Created: 6/23/2005 [6/23/05] The trash enclosure symbol shown on the legend doesn't seem to match anything on the site plan. I believe some trash enclosures are shown, but what's shown on the site plan doesn't match the symbol in the legend. Please clarify. Number: 9 Created: 6/23/2005 [6/23/05] Provide a detail of the swimming pool fence. Department: Forestry Topic: General Issue Contact: Tim Buchanan Number: 1 Created: 6/23/2005 [6/23105] Two street tree species are used on this project but are not on the City list of approved street trees (Fallgold Ash and English Oak). Suggested changes include Patmore Green Ash and Skymaster English Oak (Quercus robur Skymaster'.

Number: 46 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Sidewalk adjacent to alley needs to be 6' if attached. Number: 47 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6105] Provide a direct sidewalk connection between buildings A, B, C, and D, E, F. Number: 48 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Direct sidewalk connections from building C to Lemay and building F to Lincoln. Department: Water Wastewater Issue Contact: Jeff Hill Topic: General Number: 30 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Show and label locations of proposed gas and electric mains. Number: 31 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Existing CFC water main located in Lemay is a cathodically protected main. Clearly define a C.P. isolation connection and include the standard detail. Number: 32 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Connect the existing 8-inch water main stub located on the banks site to the proposed water main system within this development. A water main extension will be required in the future Lemay Ave. A discussion is needed to determine if it needs to be installed with this project or as escrowed funds. Number: 33 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Pothole the existing 24-inch ELCO water district main on the northwest side of this development to finalize this design. Number: 34 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Provide profiles of storm sewers showing all water and sewer lines in the profiles. Clearly define all water line lowerings. Number: 35 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] No permanent structures may be constructed within the utility easements (Le Trash enclosures, retaining walls, etc.). Number: 36 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Provide utility easements for all water and sewer mains. Provide 30 feet of utility easement for sanitary sewer mains and 20 feet of easement for all water mains. Number: 37 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/51051 More detailed comments may be generated when final plans are submitted. Please see site, landscape and utility plans for other minor comments. Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: zoning Number: 5 Created: 6/23/2005 Page 6 3. Please provide a table that includes the BFE, regulatory flood protection elevation, and lowest floor for each structure in the City Dry Creek floodplain. 4. Please include the Poudre FEMA 100-year floodplain and the City Dry Creek 100-year floodplain on the plat. 5. Please include the floodplain lines on the site plans. 6. Drainage report, P.2, Need to determine the type of foundation for the buildings so that the lowest floor level can be determined. See Section 10-37 of City code for more information about foundation type and relationship to lowest floor. 7. Drainage report, P.2, The lowest floor, not lowest opening, must be 18" above the BFE. 8. Drainage report, P.2, See corrections to text regarding floodplain use permit and elevation certificate requirements. Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Stormwater Number: 51 Created: 7/7/2005 [7/7/05] The retention ponds can not be located in the future right-of-ways of Lemay and Lincoln. The assumption that the retention ponds will not be needed once the future Lincoln and Lemay alignments are constructed is invalid. These retention ponds will be needed until the outfall situation in the County is fixed, which could be long after these road improvements are completed. Please provide all retention ponds on site and out of any future right-of-ways for the interim and ultimate conditions. Number: 52 Created: 7/8/2005 [7/8/05] The retention ponds seem to be oversized, especially ponds 3A and 3B. A meeting is needed to discuss the sizing of these ponds. Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: Kurt Ravenschlag Topic: General Number: 41 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Sidewalk ramps must be directional versus the radial ramps indicated in the drawings. Number: 42 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Appropriate ROW should be dedicated for Lemay (4 In Arterial), Lincoln (4 In Arterial), International (2 In Arterial), and Buckingham St./Duff Dr. (2 In Collector). Number: 43 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Ultimate plans need to show completion of streets and frontage improvements. 6' detached sidewalks along Lemay, Lincoln, and International frontages; and a 5' detached sidewalk along Duff Dr. Number: 44 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Duff Dr. is not shown on plans in the north east corner of property. Number: 45 Created: 7/6/2005 Page 5 Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Doug Martine Topic: Electric facilities Number: 1 Created: 6/21/2005 [6/21/05] The developer will need to coordinate power requirements and locations for pad type electric transformers for the office buildings with Light & Power Engineering (221-6700). Number: 2 Created: 6/21 /2005 [6/21/05] The electric meters for the residential buildings will need to be 'ganged' together on one end of each building. Gas meters are encouraged to be on the opposite end from the electric meters. Many water services will need to be separated to be to the middle of each building. This will provide locations for gas and electric services and meters. A utility coordination meeting is encouraged. Number: 3 Created: 6/21 /2005 [6/21/05] The electric development charges could be reduced by approximately $200.00 per dwelling unit if the developer chooses pad type transformers placed behind the sidewalk instead of the usual vault type transformers. Although currently not available, this option is anticipated to become available for electric installations after 1-1-2006. In order for this option to be possible, the front lot easements will need to be increased from 9 ft. to 11 ft. wide. Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 4 Created: 6/21 /2005 [6/21/05] A streetlight plan was sent to Ted Shepard via inter -office mail on 6-21-05 to be forwarded to the applicant. These lights will need to be shown on the landscape plan and street tree locations will need to be adjusted to provide 15 ft. minimum clearance between the trees and lights (15 ft. if the tree is an ornamental). Department: Police Issue Contact: Joseph Gerdom Topic: General Number: 50 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] Photometric site plan does not match submitted site plan - revise photometric to match proposed site plan. Parking & drive areas for Office/retail require min of 1.Ofc. LUC also requires min of 1.0fc for building surrounds on non-res. Watch for separation between mature size of plant materials and light fixtures. Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Basil Hamdari Topic: Floodplain Comments Number: 38 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Lincoln Mixed Use Floodplain Comments July 5, 2005 1. Please see the 50% and 100% floodplain checklists for the items needed on the plans and in the drainage report. 2. Please include all required notes (see checklists) Page 4 [6/24/05] Instead of the 26' interim asphalt connections, please provide 36' with 4' of gravel shoulder to help maintain better maintain the pavement edge and allow for a three lane cross section at both Lincoln and Lemay in the interim condition (see ID#25). Number: 25 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] With the ultimate connection of Forbes Drive to Lincoln Avenue, please widen out Forbes Drive to 36' which helps ensure a more comfortable three lane cross section at the intersection. With Fitzgerald being limited to right -in right -out there isn't as much of a concern with the width at the intersection. Number: 26 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] 1 can coordinate a utility coordination meeting, which appears to be a likely request given the layout. Number: 28 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] Additional new comments are likely regarding designs of Lemay, Lincoln, and Buckingham when provided in the submittal. Another round of review is required. There is a general concern in that the onsite plans were designed without any information on these surrounding streets to review against. Number: 54 Created: 7/8/2005 [7/8/05] The developer will be required to fund their local street portion costs of Lemay and Lincoln. Included in these costs should be tree relocation costs as noted in ID#10. Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 10 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The landscape plans specifies deciduous trees along Fitzgerald and Forbes in the interim condition. With these trees mostly being located in the future realigned Lemay and Lincoln, there is concern about having to relocate the landscaping. We will however support the use of ornamentals instead of deciduous tree species in these areas. A note on the landscape plans should be placed noting that these particular trees will be relocated with the realignments of Lemay and Lincoln. Number: 53 Created: 7/8/2005 [7/8/05] The landscape plan specifies I.D. signs along Forbes and Fitzgerald. These cannot be located in present and future realigned right-of-way for Lincoln and Lemay. Topic: Plat Number: 14 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The designation of realigned Lemay and Lincoln right-of-way as Tracts A & B respectively is required to be changed from tracts to right-of-way. We will not support the application if the plat leaves these areas as tracts. Number: 15 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The 10' Qwest right-of-way easement needs to also be incorporated as right-of- way for Lincoln. Number: 24 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] Provide the standard sight distance easement restriction language on the plat. Page 3 [6/24/05] Ensure that a plat is included and indexed in the construction plan set (can be done at time of mylars). Number: 16 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The interim connection of Forbes to Lincoln requires the dedication of an access easement on the plat for the area that crosses a drainage easement. Number: 20 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] Becca Lane has a street centerline radius that is 125', which does not meet minimum LCUASS requirements. Number: 21 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The ultimate connections of Fitzgerald and Forbes with Lemay and Lincoln respectively seem to be shown incorrectly as it appears the curb returns occur before the detached sidewalk instead of after. Also, why do the ultimate plans omit completion of the streets (without curb, gutter and sidewalk)? Number: 22 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The construction plans needs to show offsite design for Lemay and Lincoln at 1000' in each direction and Buckingham at 500' in each direction from the portions that abut the property. A copy of the realigned alignments is attached. The vertical offsite design should include centerline existing and proposed profiles (as done with the onsite plans). Number: 23 Created: 6/24/2005 [6124/05] With the offsite designs, noted in the previous comment, please show the sight distance easements on these drawings to show how the easements were calculated. Number: 27 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] With the centerline profile of the street turn at Santiago Lane with Fitzgerald Drive remaining a constant .6%, is there a resulting steepening on one side and reduction on the other of cross slopes around the street turn that exceed/don't meet City criteria? Topic: General Number: 12 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The drawings show access ramps at intersection that meet at the "corner'. Please provide directional ramps at these locations instead. Number: 13 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The drawings do not reflect the extension of Buckingham which would cut across the northeast corner of the site. All the drawings need to reflect this. Number: 17 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The retaining wall shown on the southeast corner of the site is within a sight distance easement which is not allowed. Number: 18 Created: 6/24/2005 [6/24/05] The use of retention ponds in Lincoln Avenue right-of-way is of concern to Engineering and will not be supported. Number: 19 Created: 6/24/2005 Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW JOHN PROUTY LAGUNITAS COMPANIES 3944 JFK PARKWAY, SUITE 12E FORT COLLINS, CO 80525 Date: 7/11 /2005 Staff has reviewed your submittal for LINCOLN MIXED -USE PDP, 1110 E LINCOLN - TYPE II, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Cameron Gloss Topic: Architecture Number: 49 Created: 7/6/2005 [7/6/05] The proposed office buildings appear to be virtual replicas of offices constructed within the Landings, along Cameron Drive and Boardwalk Drive. Advance Planning urges the applicant to consider using a different architectural treatment that would reflect the character of this area instead of matching what has been constructed in other parts of the community. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Pete Wray Topic: General Number: 39 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] Landscape areas need to meet minimum requirements between edge of property boundaries and proposed parking facilities, streets and drive isles. Number: 40 Created: 7/5/2005 [7/5/05] A buffer transition should be provided between residential buildings and adjacent industrial uses, including sufficient landscaping to screen views of industrial park area. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Cameron Gloss Topic: Integration with Existing/Future Uses Number: 29 Created: 7/4/2005 [7/4/05] How does the development plan form a "transition and link between surrounding uses" (in this case, industrial -zoned properties to the east and north)? Except for the single street connection at Forbes Drive, the development plan appears to be an isolated pocket of residences with little or no direct physical relationship with surrounding parcels and uses. This runs counter to the stated intent for the districts to "form an integral, town -like pattern of development, and not merely a series of individual development projects in separate zone districts" Could there be an opportunity to work with the abutting property owners to the north and east to develop the triangular shaped parcels immediately abutting the subject property that would help to make this land use transition?
