Department: Stormwater Engineering Contact: Heather McDowell, 970-224-6065, hmcdowell@fcgov.com Topic: General MA/General BDR Comment Number: 2 09/03/2018: With the dedication of the additional ROW and access easement along College Avenue, and with the future public sidewalk shifting into the new easement, this will potentially impact the existing detention basin and reduce the required volume. With the future sidewalk installation, a drainage report will be required and will need to show how the impacted detention basin will be mitigated. (This comment is also provided in the BDR180025). Response – Understood – at this time no changes are planned to the pond. Contact: Jesse Schlam, 970-218-2932, jschlam@fcgov.com Topic: Erosion Control MA / Erosion Control BDR Comment Number: 1 08/22/2018: Based upon the truck traffic and lift traffic on this building addition the control measures proposed here are not going to be very effective and would recommend looking at some other types of inlet protection or vehicle tracking control devices to handle the unique aspects of this site already being majority built out.
