Townhomes @ One Library Park
Final Drainage Report 1
I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
A. Location
1. Vicinity Map
2. Townhomes @ One Library Park is located in the southwest quarter of Section 12,
Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, City of Fort Collins,
County of Larimer, State of Colorado.
3. The project site is located just northwest of the intersection of East Olive Street and
Mathews Street.
4. Currently the existing lot does not have any stormwater or water quality facilities. Due
to the proximity of the existing building to the property, all of the stormwater is
collected on top of the roof and discharged directly into the City Stormwater
Collections System via a roof drain leader. All of runoff, located within the public
Right-of-Way is discharged via overland flow into the street curb and gutter and
intercepted by an existing Type ‘R’ Inlet into the aforementioned system.
5. The project is currently border to the south by East Olive Street, west by a public
alley, north by a multi-family complex and east by Mathews Street.
Townhomes @ One Library Park
Final Drainage Report 2
B. Description of Property
1. Townhomes @ One Library Park property is approximately 0.289 net acres.
Figure 1 – Aerial Photograph
2. Townhomes @ One Library Park project consists of one property that is entirely
consumed by an existing building. This building was owned and occupied previously
by the City of Fort Collins Utilities. On the southeast corner of the lot, there is an
existing Porte-cochere acting as an old drive-thru window. The existing building was
constructed with a flat roof collecting all stormwater through a central rooftop drain.
This drain was discharged directly into the City stormwater system through a
stormwater service pipe. Al stormwater surrounding the building was routed via
overland flow into the surrounding streets and public alleyway. No off-site stormwater
was routed on-site.
3. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey, 79 percent of the site consists of Fort
Collins loam, which falls into Hydrologic Soil Groups B, while the remaining site
consists of Satanta loam, which falls into Hydrologic Soil Groups B.
4. The proposed development will include the deconstruction of the old City building
along with all associated utility services. The proposed site will include two large
building, each being divided into five single family attached units, and a central
access drive composed of both permeable and inpermeable pavers. The site is
located in the Old Town master drainage basin, and therefore, on-site detention is not
required so long as the increase in impervious area is less than 5,000 square-feet.
The proposed development will be decreasing the amount of imperviousness by
approximately 2,746 square-feet (16,927-14,181). A detailed breakdown of the
existing and proposed impervious area is attached to this report. Although the project
site is located within the Uhdal Basin and water quality is not required, the center
section of drive constructed of permeable pavers will act as the projects water quality
facility.

Figure 2– Proposed Site Plan
5. No irrigation facilities are known to be within the property limits.
6. The project site is within the Neighborhood Conservation Buffer (N-C-B) Zoning
District. The proposed project is not requesting a change in the land use.
C. Floodplain
1. The subject property is not located in a FEMA or City regulatory floodplain.
The FEMA Panel 08069C0979H, shown below, illustrates the proximity of the
project site to the nearest FEAM delineated regulatory floodplain. It is noted that the
vertical datum utilized for site survey work is the City of Fort Collins Benchmark #1-
13 (Elevation = 4976.58, Fort Collins NVGD 29 – Unadjusted)

II. DRAINAGE BASINS AND SUB-BASINS
A. Major Basin Description
1. Townhomes @ One Library Park is located within the Old Town Basin, which is
located primarily in Old Town Fort Collins.
B. Sub-Basin Description
1. The subject property primarily consists of a commercial building. This area routes
stormwater through a roof drain and directly into the City’s Stormwater system. The
areas surrounding the building to the north, south and east route stormwater away
from the building and into the streets. Both streets discharge directly into the City’s
Stormwater system via a curb inlet located at the southeast corner of the project site.
A more detailed description of the projects proposed drainage patterns follows in
Section IV.A.4., below.
2. No drainage is routed onto the property from the east, west, north or south.
III. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
There are no optional provisions outside of the FCSCM proposed with Townhomes @ One
Library Park.
B. Four Step Process
The overall stormwater management strategy employed with Townhomes @ One Library
Park utilizes the “Four Step Process” to minimize adverse impacts of urbanization on
receiving waters. The following is a description of how the proposed development has
incorporated each step.
Step 1 – Employ Runoff Reduction Practices
Several techniques have been utilized with the proposed development to facilitate the
reduction of runoff peaks, volumes, and pollutant loads as the site is developed from the
current use by implementing multiple Low Impact Development (LID) strategies including:
Conserving existing amenities in the site including the existing vegetated trees along
Mathews Street and Olive Street.
Routing flows, to the extent feasible, through vegetated swales and grass buffers to
increase time of concentration, promote infiltration and provide initial water quality.
Providing permeable paver areas with underground detention area to increase time of
concentration promote infiltration and provide water quality.
Step 2 – Implement BMPs That Provide a Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) with
Slow Release
Although this project site is located within the Udall Natural Area and Water Quality is not
required, approximately 70 percent of the building and the entire central drive aisle will
drain across or into the permeable paver section located within the drive. In addition, the
northern half of the northern building will drain into a grass lines swale achieving further
water quality.
Townhomes @ One Library Park
Final Drainage Report 6
Step 3 – Stabilize Drainageways
As stated in Section I.B.5, above, there are no major drainageways in or near the subject
site. While this step may not seem applicable to Townhomes @ One Library Park, the
proposed project indirectly helps achieve stabilized drainageways nonetheless. Once again,
site selection has a positive effect on stream stabilization. By repurposing an already
developed, under-utilized site with existing stormwater infrastructure, combined with LID,
the likelihood of bed and bank erosion is greatly reduced. Furthermore, this project will
pay one-time stormwater development fees, as well as ongoing monthly stormwater utility
fees, both of which help achieve Citywide drainageway stability.
Step 4 – Implement Site Specific and Other Source Control BMPs.
This step typically applies to industrial and commercial developments and is not
applicable for this project.
C. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
1. There are no known drainage studies for the existing properties.
2. There are no known drainage studies for any adjacent properties that will have any
effect on Townhomes @ One Library Park project.
3. The subject property is essentially an "in-fill" development project as the property is
surrounded by currently developed properties. As such, several constraints have been
identified during the course of this analysis that will impact the proposed drainage
system including:
Existing elevations along the south, east and west property lines adjacent to Olive
Street, Mathews Street and the Public Alley will be maintained.
Existing trees along Mathews Street and Olive Street will be preserved.
As previously mentioned, overall drainage patterns of the existing site will be
maintained.
D. Hydrological Criteria
1. The City of Fort Collins Rainfall Intensity-Duration-Frequency Curves, as depicted in
Figure RA-16 of the FCSCM, serve as the source for all hydrologic computations
associated with the Regency Lakeview development. Tabulated data contained in
Table RA-7 has been utilized for Rational Method runoff calculations.
2. The Rational Method has been employed to compute stormwater runoff utilizing
coefficients contained in Tables RO-11 and RO-12 of the FCSCM.
3. The Rational Formula-based Modified Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
procedure has been utilized for detention storage calculations.
4. Three separate design storms have been utilized to address distinct drainage
scenarios. A fourth design storm has also been computed for comparison purposes.
The first design storm considered is the 80th percentile rain event, which has been
employed to design the project’s water quality features. The second event analyzed is
the “Minor,” or “Initial” Storm, which has a 2-year recurrence interval. The third
event considered is the “Major Storm,” which has a 100-year recurrence interval.
The fourth storm computed, for comparison purposes only, is the 10-year event.
5. No other assumptions or calculation methods have been used with this development
that are not referenced by current City of Fort Collins criteria.
Townhomes @ One Library Park
Final Drainage Report 7
E. Hydraulic Criteria
1. As previously noted, the subject property historically drains directly into the City’s
Stormwater system. The majority of the site drains stormwater via overland and pipe
flow.
2. All drainage facilities proposed with Townhomes @ One Library Park project are
designed in accordance with criteria outlined in the FCSCM and/or the Urban
Drainage and Flood Control District’s (UDFCD) Urban Storm Drainage Criteria
Manual.
3. As stated in Section I.C.1, above, the subject property is not located within a FEMA
regulatory floodplain.
4. Townhomes @ One Library Park project does not propose to modify any natural
drainageways.
F. Floodplain Regulations Compliance
1. As previously mentioned, all structures are located outside of any FEMA 100-year
floodplain, and thus are not subject to any floodplain regulations.
G. Modifications of Criteria
1. The proposed Townhomes @ One Library Park development is not requesting any
modifications to criteria at this time.
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
A. General Concept
1. The main objectives of Townhomes @ One Library Park drainage design are to
maintain existing drainage patterns and ensure no adverse impacts to any adjacent
properties.
2. The existing site does not have off-site flows entering the site.
3. A list of tables and figures used within this report can be found in the Table of
Contents at the front of the document. The tables and figures are located within the
sections to which the content best applies.
4. Townhomes @ One Library Park project divided the site into four (4) major drainage
basins, designated as Basins A, B, C and OS. The project was not further subdivided.
The drainage patterns anticipated for each basin is further described below.
Basin A
Basin A consists of the northern half of the northern building and the landscape/walk
north of the building. Runoff from this basin is routed through a combination of
overland and swale flow. The runoff from the roof is collected through a central drain
and discharged directly into the grass lined swale running along the north from west to
east. This runoff is discharged directly into the street section and finally intercepted
by the existing storm inlet located at the northwest corner of Mathews and Olive
Street.
Basin B
Basin B consists of the 70 percent of both building and the entire central drive aisle.
Runoff from this basin is routed through a combination of overland and gutter flow.
Townhomes @ One Library Park
Final Drainage Report 8
The runoff from the roof is collected through a central drain and discharged directly
into the paver section located in the center of the private drive. All runoff from the
private drive is routed across the pavers and intercepted by a combination inlet
located at the east end of the drive aisle. This private storm system is connected
directly to the City’s Stormwater system. In the case that the inlet is clogged, the
runoff will spill over the curb and gutter. The inlet/ will then act like a weir and is able
to handle 133 percent of the 100-year event.
Basin C
Basin C consists of the southern half of the southern building and the landscape
between the building and the public walk. Runoff from this basin is routed through a
combination of overland and pipe flow. The runoff from the roof is collected through a
central drain and discharged directly into the private storm sewer running along the
south from west to east. This runoff is discharged directly into the City’s Stormwater
system.
Basin OS
Basin OS consist entirely of the public sidewalk and landscape buffer. Runoff from
this basin is routed overland and discharged directly into the street section and finally
intercepted by the existing storm inlet located at the northwest corner of Mathews and
Olive Street.
A Drainage Exhibit can be found at the end of this report.
B. Specific Details
1. Although this located within the Udall Natural Area, water quality is always a
concern. Additional treatment will include the proposed paver section within the
central drive aisle, which will treat 48 percent of the project site and a grass lined
swale located to the north of the property, which will treat and additional 17 percent
of the site.
2. The project is located within the Old Town Master Drainage Basin, which does not
require detention as long as the addition imperviousness proposed is less than 500
square feet. Townhomes @ One Library Park will actually be reducing the overall
imperviousness of the site by 2,746 square-feet (14,181-16,927), therefore no
detention is required.
3. There are Nyloplast Drain Basins located along the southern and eastern sides of the
building. These area inlets are designed to intercept local flows, as well as the flow
generated by the proposed buildings. These basins will convey runoff through
landscape areas before discharging into the drain system. The drain basin is
connected directly to City’s Stormwater system.
4. The emergency spillway will be located at the low point on the eastern side of the
drive aisle. In the event that an emergency overflow occurs, the drainage will flow to
the east, into the existing street. Weir calculations are attached and only account for
the area directly above the inlet. More capacity is available along the entire section of
the curb and gutter.

EROSION CONTROL LETTER
Geico Office Building
Preliminary Erosion Control Report
A comprehensive Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (along with associated details) will be included
with the final construction drawings. It should be noted, however, that any such Erosion and
Sediment Control Plan serves only as a general guide to the Contractor. Staging and/or phasing of
the BMPs depicted, and additional or different BMPs from those included may be necessary during
construction, or as required by the authorities having jurisdiction.
It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure erosion control measures are properly
maintained and followed. The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan is intended to be a living
document, constantly adapting to site conditions and needs. The Contractor shall update the
location of BMPs as they are installed, removed or modified in conjunction with construction
activities. It is imperative to appropriately reflect the current site conditions at all times.
The Erosion and Sediment Control Plan shall address both temporary measures to be implemented
during construction, as well as permanent erosion control protection. Best Management Practices
from the Volume 3, Chapter 7 – Construction BMPs will be utilized. Measures may include, but are
not limited to, silt fencing along the disturbed perimeter, gutter protection in the adjacent roadways
and inlet protection at existing and proposed storm inlets. Vehicle tracking control pads, spill
containment and clean-up procedures, designated concrete washout areas, dumpsters, and job site
restrooms shall also be provided by the Contractor.
Grading and Erosion Control Notes can be found on Sheet CS2 of the Utility Plans. The Utility
Plans also contain a full-size Erosion Control Plan as well as a separate sheet dedicated to Erosion
Control Details. In addition to this report and the referenced plan sheets, a final Storm Water
Management Report has been created and is included within this submittal. The Contractor shall
also be aware of, and adhere to, the applicable requirements outlined in any existing Development
Agreement(s) of record, as well as the Development Agreement, to be recorded prior to issuance of
the Development Construction Permit. Also, the Site Contractor for this project will be required to
secure a Stormwater Construction General Permit from the Colorado Department of Public Health
and Environment (CDPHE), Water Quality Control Division – Stormwater Program, before
commencing any earth disturbing activities. Prior to securing said permit, the Site Contractor shall
develop a comprehensive StormWater Management Plan (SWMP) pursuant to CDPHE requirements
and guidelines. The SWMP will further describe and document the ongoing activities, inspections,
and maintenance of construction BMPs.
