Drainage Letter Report
Date: December 20, 2013
Project: Plum & Shields Greek Housing Project No. 970-001
Project Development Plan/Final Plan
Fort Collins, Colorado
Attn: Mr. Wes Lamarque
City of Fort Collins Stormwater Utility
700 Wood Street
Fort Collins, Colorado 80521
Dear Wes:
This letter serves to address the stormwater impacts of the Plum & Shields Greek Housing project. The
existing building is situated towards the northern portion of the site. The site currently consists of rooftop,
concrete walks, asphalt parking areas, some turf, trees, and other vegetation. It presently functions similar
to a ‘B’ lot, with historic drainage being split towards Plum Street to the north and towards Shields Street
to the east. The total impervious area of the existing site is approximately 12,325 square-feet. The
existing percent impervious for the entire site is 65.1%. The existing total runoff from the site is 2.6 cfs in
the 100-yr event.
The proposed redevelopment will leave the existing building footprint unchanged, while expanding the
parking area south of the building. Portions of existing paving will be modified, and a paver area will be
added near the southern exit from the site. While very minor grading changes will occur, existing drainage
patterns will be maintained. The total impervious area of the proposed redevelopment is roughly 13,141
square-feet. This is a slight increase from the existing condition. The proposed percent impervious for the
entire site also increases slightly to 67.7%. However, due to the addition of pavers and the removal of
some concrete paving along the north side of the building, total runoff from the site remains unchanged at
2.6 cfs in the 100-yr event.
The site is located in the Old Town Drainage Basin. On-site detention is not required so long as there is no
increase in runoff. Since the redevelopment does not propose an increase in runoff, detention storage is
not required. Calculations using the rational method to determine the existing and proposed runoff are
attached to this letter, as is a drainage exhibit.
There are no regulatory floodplains associated with the project.

Although stormwater quantity detention is not required, stormwater quality mitigation will be addressed by
both temporary and permanent Best Management Practices (BMPs). During construction, the Contractor
will follow the appropriate and applicable City of Fort Collins standards for erosion and sediment control.
Since the approximately 10,140 sf area of disturbance for the project is less than one acre, a
comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan will not be prepared for this project. Post construction
water quality and erosion control will be achieved by a fully established and stabilized site. All areas
disturbed during construction will receive permanent hardscape, landscape, or building structure.
There are no existing stormwater BMP’s currently on-site. In order to bring the site into compliance with
the Low Impact Development Standards adopted by the city, water quality mitigation and permeable
pavers will be provided on-site. Water quality treatment will occur through a variety of methods. The first
method is the use of a raised bio-retention area along the south side of the existing building that intercepts
runoff from rooftop downspouts. This planter bed will have an engineered section designed to remove
particulates and contaminants from the runoff. While most minor events are expected to infiltrate into the
ground, a subdrain is provided to drain the rain garden should it become overburdened. The underdrain
will outfall into a permeable paver sub-base, providing additional treatment of the runoff from the roof. In
addition to treating the roof runoff, the paver area will intercept all surface runoff from the existing asphalt
parking area south of the trash enclosure, which allows minor rain events to infiltrate into the soil rather
than leaving the site. The final method that is being utilized on the north side of the building is to
discharge roof drains into landscaped areas.
The combination of these two features will treat all water originating in the southern portion of the site,
which is roughly 57% of the entire project site, which exceeds the requirement to treat a minimum of 50%
of the project site with some form of LID water quality treatment. Also, of the 1,018 sf of new paving
proposed with this project, 337sf will be permeable pavers. This means 33% of the new paving will be
permeable, meeting the requirement that at least 25% of all new paving be permeable.
To summarize, the proposed grading concept very closely matches existing elevations and drainage
patterns. On-site detention is proven to be unnecessary. Stormwater quality has been provided, and
meets the city requirements for Low Impact Development. Therefore, it is my professional opinion that the
Plum & Shields Greek Housing satisfies all applicable stormwater criteria.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or require additional information.
