Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 07/16/2014 09/02/2014: This site/landscape plan will need to show the righ-of-way improvements such as sidewalk location and street trees. The juniper bed dimensions should be labeled and the number of plants to be planted in a planting table. 07/16/2014: Is this a combined site and landscape plan? If so the landscaping should be included. Please outline the juniper planting bed and number of plants in each.

RE: March, Olive, & Pharris, LLC Law Offices, PDP140008, Round Number 2 Page 1 of 6 09/02/2014: The stall dimensions will need to be labeled. It seems that there is not enough aisle room for stall labeled 11 and 10 possibly more depending on the stall dimensions. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 09/02/2014 09/02/2014: Stalls along north property line will need to be surfaced with asphalt or concrete. What screening of the vehicle use area along the north property line is included? Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 09/02/2014 09/03/2014: The agreement to dissolve the old agreement will need to be completed before going to public hearing. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 09/03/2014 Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Sheri Langenberger, 970-221-6573, slangenberger@fcgov.com Topic: General 07/15/2014: If the project is to be called March, Olive and Pharris LLC Law Offices then the plans need to contain this name as well. The project name and that contained on the plans needs to be consistent. Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/15/2014 09/01/14: This is labeled on the plans. Additional information on the dedication process and cost can be found at: http://www.fcgov.com/engineering/devrev.php The deed will need to be finalized and accepted prior to final approval of this project. 07/15/2014: Additional right-of-way needs to be dedicated along the frontage of the property. I don¿t know exactly how much is to be dedicated, but want right-of-way so that there is 17 feet from the existing flowline of the street. The distance allows for the future parkway and detached sidewalk that is a part of the college avenue cross section. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 07/15/2014 09/01/14: The plans don't show any sidewalk changes. 07/15/2014: The existing sidewalk is narrow and can either be widened by adding onto this sidewalk (minimum addition is 4 feet in width) or the sidewalk can be detached along the property¿s frontage (6 foot detached). Either way we can work the sidewalk around the existing trees. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 07/15/2014 09/01/14: Since the driveway will not be closing the applicant will need to work with CDOT regarding a new/updated access permit for this driveway. The driveway shall be a one way driveway and that needs to be noted on the site plan and appropriate signage shown to be installed on the plans, so it is clear that cars are not to enter from the wrong way. 07/15/2014: For the driveway closure: The applicant will need to get an access permit from CDOT for the closure (no cost). The driveway cut would need to be replaced along College Ave with vertical curb and gutter. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 07/15/2014 09/03/2014: The driveway width needs to be labeled on the plans. It is unlikely that the driveway will meet ADA standards and if it does meet ADA standards then it needs to be reconstructed. A note needs to be added to the plans identifying that the driveway needs to meet ADA standards and if it doesn't, it needs to be reconstructed to meet ADA standards. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 09/03/2014 09/03/2014: A development agreement will need to be entered into for the site. I will send out the information for development agreement sheet and that will need to be returned.

Two skyline Honeylocust 2.0 inch caliper could be labeled on the plan as the replacement trees. Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/16/2014 07/16/2014: The following is the tree inventory information that could be placed on the plan.

Number 1: Please specify the species of the trees to be planted along College. Size should be indicated as 2.0 inch caliper. For mitigation for the spruce removal one should be specified as 3.0 inch caliper. Number 2: Thank you for the information that Kincaid Tree Service had evaluated the Cottonwood. Please confirm that there recommendation was to retain the tree. Number 4: Please add the tree inventory table to the site plan. For spruce number 2 indicate that the mitigation would be 1 tree. For number 7 the area where the volunteer trees are located could be shown with a line generally surrounding the border of the grove. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 09/03/2014 09/03/2014: Please add tree protection note number 8 that says that all tree pruning and removal work will be performed by a business holding a current City of Fort Collins Arborist License where required by code. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 09/03/2014 Page 3 of 6 09/03/2014: The current plan shows the alternate trash enclosure location at the large cottonwood at the SE corner of the site. The parking stall just to the west appears to be less than 3 feet from the tree. The extent of the pavers near this tree is not very not clear. Please review these conflicts and consider if the parking stall can be shifted to the west or possibly not included to provide better protection to the tree. The City Forester is available to meet on site if needed to help evaluate.

The property has previously been found to be eligible for local designation for both its architecture and historical associations. The property is also likely to be eligible for listing on both the State and National Registers. Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/07/2014 07/07/2014: The plans have been reviewed for compliance with Section 3.4.7 of the Land Use Code, and for compliance with the criteria in Section 14-48 of the City Code, which includes the Secretary of the Interior's Standards. The plans comply with all applicable standards.

Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 06/30/2014 Department: PFA Contact: Jim Lynxwiler, 970-416-2869, jlynxwiler@poudre-fire.org Topic: General Page 4 of 6 09/03/2014: FIRE LANES The issue of fire access to this property needs to be revisited. It's now my understanding the proposal to share a drive aisle with the commercial property to the south has been rescinded and fire access will need to be achieved on-site as we cannot take access off of College Ave. Please contact me to discuss this further. Code reference provided below. IFC 503.1.1: Fire Lanes shall be provided to within 150' of all portions of the building, as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building. When fire lanes cannot be provided, the fire code official is authorized to increase the dimension of 150 feet if the building is equipped throughout with an approved, automatic fire-sprinkler system.

Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 09/02/2014 Department: Traffic Operation Contact: Martina Wilkinson, 970-221-6887, mwilkinson@fcgov.com Topic: Site Plan 09/02/2014: Since the shared drive concept is abandoned, the existing drive will be used. CDOT appears to be supportive of this. The drive needs to be one way (inbound only), and a change in use permit will be needed from CDOT. 07/16/2014: The shared driveway off College Avenue needs to function as an appropriate high volume drive that accesses a state highway. If it's being used for 2-way traffic, it would need to accommodate 2-way traffic for at least some distance from street. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 07/16/2014 Page 5 of 6 09/02/2014: This comment remains and the new site plan doesn't seem to indicate what is proposed. 07/16/2014: Transportation Planning staff notes that the sidewalk along College needs improvements - although it can likely stay attached much like other properties in the area, it will need to be widened.

Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 06/30/2014 Topic: Site Plan 06/30/2014: Is there a handicap ramp proposed? Please show location if so. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 06/30/2014 06/30/2014: The diaginol parking will require some of the spaces to "pass through" on to the adjoing lot as vehicles parked in the three spaces to the west of the designated "pass through" should not have to back up to through the lane to pull forward throught the pass through. In addition the designated pass through area doesn't appear to be wide enough as a one way isle width should be at least 12' wide. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 06/30/2014 06/30/2014: The handicap space is unsufficient in width. Even with one HC space it should be a minimuim of 8' wide and another 8' of a hatched out area for access out and into a van. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 06/30/2014 Page 6 of 6
