we encourage the owner to take measures to protect the new structure from
flood damage. The Stormwater Utility can assist with recommendations
about how to achieve this. Contact: Susan Hayes, 416-2233

1. There is a 10" water line and an 8" sewer line in Shields. There is also an
existing sewer line in the vacated alley to the north. Please locate this utility
and provide a 15' easement on either side of it.
2. The front and back units will need to have separate water and sewer
accounts. We can probably split the lines and add a meter at the front of the
property so you won't have to go into Shields, where street cut fees would
apply.

1. The utilities along the vacated alley have already been undergrounded.
2. Electric capacity and building site fees will apply to this project.
Development fees will only apply to the rear portion of the site.
3. The existing house in front currently has #4 copper line with a 60amp meter
can. Applicant can go up to 120amp with no additional fees. There is an
existing pad mount behind the garage. Depending on the total new load, the
transformer may need to be replaced but that seems unlikely.
4. There will be service charges when you apply for your building permit.
5. Please refer to the 2005 Fee Schedule given to you at conceptual as some
fees have increased since 2004.

1. This site is in the Old Town drainage basin where the new development fee
is $4,150.00/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. This
fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued and is charged only
when there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet.
2. A drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required
and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in
Colorado. In the Old Town drainage basin these are required if there is an
increase in imperviousness greater than 5000 square feet.
3. Onsite detention is required with a 2 year historic release rate for water
quantity and extended detention is required for water quality treatment. -
Parking lot detention is allowed as long as it is not deeper than one foot. If
there is 5000 square feet or less of new imperviousness, water quantity
detention is not required nor is water quality extended detention. If there is
an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet, a grading plan
is all that is required. If it can be shown that the total imperviousness,
including one-half any adjacent streets or alleys, is equal to or less that the
master plan imperviousness, the report and detention requirements are
waived.
4. Comment from Floodplain Administrator - The following comments assume
the location of the proposed carriage house is at the back of the lot. This
site is affected by the revised Canal Importation floodplain. The current GIS
map shows the back portion of the lot is in the 100-year High Risk floodplain.
Based on the proposed mapping from the Sheldon Lake project, this lot will
be entirely in the 100-year Moderate Risk Zone. Therefore, there will be no

CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS
City of Fort Collins
ITEM: Addition of a carriage house at the rear of the existing house at
135 N. Shields
MEETING DATE: November 15, 2004
APPLICANT: Matt Nesbitt
401 West Mulberry St.
Fort Collins, CO 80521
LAND USE DATA: Request to add a carriage house behind the existing single family
residence at 135 N. Shields St. The property is within the City of Fort Collins and is
zoned NCL — Neighborhood Conservation, Low Density District.
COMMENTS: The following departmental agencies have offered comments for this
proposal based on a conceptual plan which was presented to the review team:
Zoning
Contact Info: Jenny Nuckols, 416-2313, jnuckols@fcgov.com
1. Carriage houses are permitted in the NCL District, subject to a Type 1
Administrative Review.
2. Please review the maximum square footage allowed for carriage houses in
the code. Basically, the living area needs to be no more than 600 square
feet on the second floor and you can have either a one or two car garage
below.
3. You'll need to provide one parking space per bedroom in the carriage house.
Engineering
Contact Info: Susan Joy, 221-6605 ext. 7128, sjoy@fcgov.com

(contact Matt Baker at 224-6108 or mbaker @fcgov.com for more
information), and Larimer County Road Impact Fees.
2. A Transportation Impact Study (TIS) will be required but will likely be waived
for this project. Please contact Eric Bracke in Transportation Planning at
224-6062 for further information.
3. Applicant will need to dedicate right-of-way on Shields and public access
and emergency access easements along alley and maybe off -site as
required. The alley was vacated in 1977 by Ordinance 147 but was retained
as an easement. The type of easement is unknown at this time and needs
to be researched by the applicant.

CURRENT PLANNING DEPARTMENT
Stormwater Utility — responses in blue are from Glen Schlueter
Will a *new development fee* be required? Yes, but it has changed and is now
53.070.001acre or SO.0705/sq,f. and is multiplied times the new impervious areas. This
is the building or rooffootprint, driveways, patios, sidewalks, etc that you are adding. It
is included in your building permit fees.
Regarding impervious surfaces and the runoff coefficient reduction:
The existing overall lot is 0.344 acres with 1336 sq. ft. of existing buildings plus
approximately 517 sq. ft. of existing porch and sidewalk.
The proposed carriage house would be a 612 sq. ft. increase in impervious surface
(footprint plus 3x4 conc. stoop). Total impervious of the site = 2665 sq. ft. - You need to
include the driveway if it is being paved.
I am assuming the comment #2 *drainage and erosion control report* is not required as
we
have not increased imperviousness greater than 5000 sq. ft. - Correct
I am assuming comment #3 *Onsite detention* is not required as we
have not increased imperviousness greater than 5000 sq. ft - Correct
Regarding the grading plan requirement:
I have assumed a flow line in the center of alley and a 4% slope from the garage. I don*t
know what the *master plan imperviousness* is for this lot. Can the *report and detention
requirements be waived*?
- The masterplan imperviousness doesn't apply as long as you are below the 5, 000 sgft.
of new imperviousness and the report and detention requirements are waived as stated
above. We do need to have a grading plan that shows the lot corner elevations, building
finished floor elevations, any grading "breakpoints " elevations along he alley where
the driveway meets the alley, and arrows indicating the flow direction both, existing and
proposed. I am attaching a handout that describer what is needed. Please submit it to
Jay Barber at 700 Wood St. At the time you want to get your Certificate of Occupancy
Jay will determine if a Grading Certification by an Engineer is required or whether just a
site inspection is enough.

After meeting with Roger Buffington, I am confident easement concerns have been met.
With the disclosure of the proposed building location to the south and the distance from
the existing easement, establishing a 15' easement on either side of the utility will not be
required.
The water and sewer accounts will be separate per city requirements as shown on the site
plan.
The following is my response to the letter dated November 19, 2004 from the City of Fort
Collins conceptual review meeting on November 15, 2004.
Zoning,:
There should be no problems providing adequate parking as it is only a one bedroom apt.
There is a carport and a 1 car garage.
Engineering
I don't believe there is an issue regarding street oversizing or that a Transportation
Impact Study (TIS) will be necessary.
The existing alley access has been established as a utility and access easement. The
original alley was vacated in 1977 with Ordinance 147. An easement was retained with
the same ordinance as stated "for all utility lines now in place in such vacated alleys
including the right to service, remove, replace, repair and reconstruct such utility lines
and right to access thereto."
After several conversations with Carrie at the PFA I am confident we can come to a
viable resolution for an emergency. There are hydrants on Laporte and Mountain. I am
also amenable to installing a sprinkler system. Obviously I would prefer not to as it is
cost prohibitive, but I don't want this to be the hold up.
Licht and Power:
The electric service requirement for the new load shall be addressed by a licensed
electrical contractor. Existing options shall be assessed and the requirements for a dual
service on site will be satisfied.
