RE: 405 Scott Avenue Carriage House Drainage Memo
Parcel #9710425005
Dear Shane:
The purpose of this letter is to describe the proposed site improvements and potential drainage
impacts at 405 Scott Avenue (Parcel #9710425005). The site is located on the west side of Scott
Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado between West Mulberry Street and West Magnolia Street. The
lot is bound by an existing residence to the north, a church parking lot to the south, Scott Avenue
right-of-way to the east, and a gravel alleyway to the west.
The 0.37-acre project site is a developed residential lot with established landscaping, a single-
story house, two gardening sheds, carport, and a detached garage with access from the alley
(Exhibit A). The project site is located within the Old Town Drainage Basin area. The garage
concrete approach on the western property line, historic Basin A, drains towards the alley. Historic
Basin B drains to a low point in the backyard of the property and infiltrates into the existing
landscaping. Historic Basin C drains towards Scott Avenue.
Per the flood insurance rate map (Exhibit B), the lot is located within Zone X. Zone X is defined as
an area of minimal flood hazard and does not have a base flood elevation associated with it.
The proposed site improvements include a carriage house, concrete patio area, and gravel
parking adjacent to the alley, updated landscaping, and an updated ADA-compliant concrete
sidewalk adjacent to Scott Avenue (Exhibit C). The drainage patterns will remain consistent with
the existing conditions; however, in an attempt to minimize any potential increased stormwater
retention in the backyard, all proposed carriage house roof drains and the gravel parking area will
drain towards the alley. Developed drainage Basin C will remain unchanged and was not included
in the drainage calculations.
The composite runoff coefficient and drainage basin runoff calculations for the historic and
developed site are included in the enclosed tables (Exhibit D). Using the Fort Collins Stormwater
Criteria Manual, the proposed site runoff will increase into the alley (Basin A) and decrease
towards the backyard infiltration area (Basin B).

2-year 10-year 100-year
Basin A Historic Runoff 0.02 cfs 0.03 cfs 0.08 cfs
Basin A Developed Runoff 0.09 cfs 0.15 cfs 0.38 cfs
Basin B Historic Runoff 0.15 cfs 0.26 cfs 0.70 cfs
Basin B Developed Runoff 0.14 cfs 0.25 cfs 0.69 cfs
Based on a recent site visit and field survey (Exhibit C), stormwater in the alley will drain south to
the Mulberry Street flowline (5035.40) prior to impacting either the existing church (finished floor
5038.07) or the existing housing structures on lots 12 through 16 adjacent to the alley west of the
project site.
Since Basin B is an existing infiltration basin and Basin C remains unchanged with proposed site
improvements, only Basin A was factored into the total increase in impervious area calculations.

Based on the enclosed design, it is my professional opinion the additional runoff generated by this
development will not cause adverse impacts to downstream private properties.
I herby attest that this letter for the final drainage design for the 405 Scott Avenue Carriage
House was prepared by me or under my direct supervision, in accordance with the provisions of
the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. I understand that the City of Fort Collins does not
and will not assume liability for drainage facilities designed by others.
Thank you for the opportunity to submit this drainage memo. Please do not hesitate to reach out
to me if you have any questions or comments regarding the above items. (970) 215-6808
