Department: Forestry Contact: Courtney Levingston, 970-416-2283, clevingston@fcgov.com Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 05/31/2013 Comment Originated: 06/12/2013 06/05/2013: What happened to the trees in the landscaped areas adjacent to the enclosed mall? The Code requires "full tree stocking" in all landscape areas within 50 feet of any building. Full tree stocking to occur along all high use or high visibility sides of any building or structure (LUC 3.2.1(D)(1)(c)). Along the northwest façade of the mall, there are existing water mainlines and gas lines running underneath the planting beds. Per the city standards, we need to keep 10’ between trees and water or sewer mains, and 6’ between trees and gas lines, which means we don’t have space for tree planting for that area.

See redlines. The titles have been corrected. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 06/05/2013 06/05/2013: There are line over text issues on several sheets. See redlines. Page | 2 We have cleaned up the exhibits as much as we can but there are information that are needed and explained so we have drawn it in this way. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 06/05/2013 06/05/2013: The cross hatching on sheets AR-A-108 & AR-A-109 is going to be a problem with scanning & reproduction. See redlines. Our typical fire plans need to show the fire lane access path and in a hatched pattern so it is easy to read and contrast with the building and site plan. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 06/05/2013 06/05/2013: Please remove "Final Plans May 22, 2013" from the building elevation on sheet AR-A-207. See redlines. This has been removed. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 06/05/2013 06/05/2013: Please correct the text on sheets AR-A-305 & A312-A318, so that it is read from the right side of the plan sheet. See redlines. We have cleaned up the exhibits as much as we can but there are information that are needed and explained so we have drawn it in this way. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 06/06/2013 06/06/2013: There is cut off text on sheets AR-A-310 & AR-A-312. See redlines. We have cleaned up the exhibits as much as we can but there are information that are needed and explained so we have drawn it in this way.
