Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: Please update both street cross sections on the cover sheet to reflect new standard. Please add a note to the Skyway striping plan to indicate that this is the interim striping and the standard will be implemented at such a time as it becomes necessary. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: The 130 foot vertical curve on C 4.01 and the 170 foot vertical curve on C 4.02 do not meet LCUASS Figure 7-17 length requirements. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: The Mars Drive storm inlets are shown to be within vertical curves. Per LCUASS 7.4.1.B.4.c. The grade into an inlet located in a sump shall have a 0.5% percent grade into and out of the inlet. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: At ST 11+00 for Skyway Drive, the reconstructed cross slope is less than the existing - this is not allowed per LCUASS 7.4.2.C. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: Please include cross section details showing cross slopes for Mars Drive. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 Please see the following summary of comments from City staff and outside reviewing agencies for your submittal of the above referenced project. If you have questions about any comments, you may contact the individual commenter or direct your questions through the Project Planner, Pete Wray, at 970-221-6754 or pwray@fcgov.com. Page 1 of 6 07/18/2017: For the intersection detail on sheet C 4.01, please add spot elevations, similar to the required centerline spot elevations, where the reconstructed portion of the Skyway roadway will begin. Please also add a scale. Comment Number: 7 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/18/2017: Please submit shallow bedrock mitigation plans in accordance with LCUASS Chapter 5 requirements. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 07/18/2017 07/19/2017: Above-ground utility cabinets/transformers in parkways in the ROW are prohibited by City Ordinance. In order for an underground utility cabinet or transformer, which serves a single private development, to be located in the parkway in the ROW, an easement would need to be granted to the developer by the City Council. In order for this to be taken to Council, upper management in City Engineering and City Utilities departments would need to agree that this is the most appropriate solution. If you have further questions about this please contact Sheri Langenberger, Development Review Manager, at 970-221-6573. Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 07/19/2017 07/19/2017: Engineering requests at least 1 more formal submittal for the project.

Environmental Planning has reviewed the document in detail and performed a review of similar plans in other jurisdictions. Please reference the three-page comment letter that is specific to the proposed prairie dog removal plan and dated July 12, 2017. Staff is requesting additional information, requests and clarification. Staff will follow up directly with Wildlife Specialties LLC. Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/07/2017 Page 2 of 6 07/07/2017: Thank you for adding the note (included below) requested on site and landscape plans for both the ditch setback and associated natural habitat and features and the wetland habitat and features. The approximate buffer hatching is sufficient for the ditch. However, please also add and label the approximate boundary of the 1.5 to 2.0 acre wetland on the northeast portion of the area to be platted on both the site and landscape plans. See redlines on page 2 of 8 of submitted Site Plan. NOTE: "This plan shows the general location and approximate size of all natural areas, habitats, and features within its boundaries pursuant to City of Fort Collins Land Use Code Section 3.4.1(E). Detailed mapping of a site's natural areas, habitats, and features will be provided at the time of individual PDP submittals for these areas. General natural habitat buffer zones may be reduced or enlarged by the decision maker during the PDP process." Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 07/07/2017 07/07/2017: See redlines on 4 of 8 of Landscape Plan.

The utility plan shows this cabinet being relocated into the utility easement. Moving this cabinet will require re-pulling approx.. 4 different runs of 3-phase cable. This will be quite extensive and require a lengthy outage most likely outside of normal business hours. Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/21/2017 07/21/2017: Any relocation or modification to existing electric facilities will be at the expense of the owner/developer. If Light & Power’s existing electric facilities are to remain within the limits of the project they must be located within a utility easement. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 07/21/2017 07/21/2017: The proposed transformer is shown on the utility plan as being fed from the relocated switching cabinet. This cabinet is already full. A new vault will need to be placed along the proposed Mars Dr. This new vault will serve as the feed for the new transformer. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 07/21/2017 07/21/2017: A commercial service information form (C-1 form) and a one line diagram will need to be submitted to Light & Power Engineering for all proposed commercial buildings and multi-family (commercial) buildings larger than a duplex or greater than 200amps. A link to the C-1 form is below: http://www.fcgov.com/utilities/business/builders-and-developers/development-forms -guidelines-regulations Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 07/21/2017 Page 3 of 6 07/21/2017: Electric Capacity Fee, Building Site charges, and any system modification charges necessary will apply to this development.

The District does not allow a long dead-end water line. The proposed water line is to end at the service line or looped. The District will require the proposed water line connection to be at the location of the existing tee in Skyway drive. The existing tee is to be replaced with a cross. The District signature block is to be replaced with the most current signature block. The District will require another review due t the nature of the above comments. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 226-3104, ext. 104, if you have any questions or require additional information.

Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 07/19/2017 07/19/2017: The riprap detail proposed may not be the best option in this application. Limited vegetation growth is likely for these side slopes which may not be desirable.
