indicating the planting restrictions in detention ponds.
18. If the solar variance is granted at the preliminary, please
make note of this on the final plat.
19. Please indicate what Tract A will be used for. It should be
clear that it is for the canal and a future pedestrian/bike
path.

6. The quality of minor storm runoff entering the PV&L canal
could be improved by providing a subdrain in lieu of a
concrete pan through the detention ponds. As flows percolate
into the subdrain pipe, contaminants are filtered out. Please
consider this option.
7. Please refer to the attached Stormwater Comment sheet and plan
set and report for additional comments.
8. Zoning has the same concerns as at preliminary. They have
measured the lot widths and find that limited building
placement will occur on 1, 21 31 51 61 8, 9, and 12. See
attached redlined plat.
9. The developer is responsible for provision of all trench,
street crossings, and ditch crossings for telephone facilities
within the project, and the developer pays up front
construction costs for facilities within the development.
Any relocation of existing telephone facilities required by
these plans will be paid for by the developer.
10. US West will provide telephone service in accordance with the
rates and tariffs on file with the Colorado Public Utilities
Commission.
11. The plat and site plan must clearly show that Birmingham Drive
is planned to continue to the south to connect to Horsetooth
Road in the future, when and if the property to the south
redevelops.
12. Please check with the Mapping Division regarding the ditch
description for PV&L Canal to put on the plat. For Cottonwood
Park, Parks and Recreation was required to survey the
centerline of the ditch and show this on the plat.
13. Parks Planning has requested dedication of the ditch easement
for trail purposes. Please indicate dedication on the plat.
Lots should be platted up to the ditch bank. We do not want
any property on the south side of the ditch, behind the
houses.
14. Parkland fees are currently $625.00 per unit and are collected
at the time of building permit issuance.
15. Please make landscape changes as discussed with Tim Buchanan.
Narrowleaf Cottonwoods are not good for yard areas due to the
surface root systems. Other good choices would be hackberry,
burr oak, ash, honey locust, or littleleaf linden.
16. Please include notes regarding maintenance and planting of
trees along the south property line. It should be clear who
is responsible for fencing repairs.

Dear Mark and Brett,
City Staff has reviewed your submittal for Lindimer Subdivision -
Final for 15 single family lots and offers the following written
comments (please excuse any duplicate comments, or comments which
have already been addressed via your preliminary plans, as the
overlap between preliminary and final sometimes causes minor
confusion):
1. Mark Taylor's comment of 6/21 indicates that the owners of the
horse stable, south of the site, are willing to
discuss/negotiate a location for an off -site sewer main
easement. This would be preferable to the proposed dual sewer
mains shown on the Utility Plan.
2. Please refer to redlined Utility Plans for additional
comments.
3. Regarding the placement of detention ponds on private
property, some of the same concerns mentioned at Preliminary
submittal still remain to be addressed. It should be made
very clear what the responsibility to the .lot owner is if
detention is provided on individual lots. In addition, the
report indicates that property owners "will be allowed to
fence the front and rear of the detention pond with a 4.0 foot
high open -type fence." We had previously understood that only
the rear of the ponds (adjacent to the Pleasant Valley and
Lake Canal) would be fenced. Please clarify this and make
note of it on the plans.
4. In the drainage report, please include the statement that all
design complies with the City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage
Design Criteria.
5. Please calculate the velocity of flows entering the PV&L Canal
from the detention pond outlets and estimate the maximum
velocity of flows in the canal to determine what kind of
erosion control is necessary to protect the ditch embankment
at the discharge points. Please provide rip -rap sizing
calculations per City criteria. Include a construction detail
on the plan set for the rip -rap pads.
