1. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
1.1 Location
The Townhomes at Timber Creek is a proposed 5.1 acre multi -family residential
development. This project is located in the West half of Section 5, Township 6 North,
Range 68 West of the Sixth Principal Meridian, in the City of Fort Collins, Larimer
County, Colorado.
The project is a portion of the Timber Creek P.U.D and is located in the northeast corner
of the intersection of Timberline Road and Timber Creek Drive. The project is bounded
on the south and east by the single-family portion of Timber Creek P.U.D., on the north
by property owned by Poudre Valley Hospital currently under development and on the
west by Timberline Road.
1.2 Description of Property
The entire project consists of approximately 5 acres of land. The land is currently
undeveloped and slopes to the south at approximately 1%. A drainage swale has been
constructed along the north property line to divert off site flows to the east.
The project will consist of 13 buildings containing 4 or 6 units each and detached
garages. A private road will provide access to the site and will have some off street
parking.
2. DRAINAGE BASINS AND SUB -BASINS
2.1 Major Basin Description
The proposed development lies within the McClellands Drainage Basin. Runoff from the
project area currently flows overland to Timber Creek Drive and is routed to the existing
Detention Pond 373 in the southeast corner of Stetson Creek P.U.D.
2.2 Sub -basin Description
This site encompasses basins 202 and 203 and portions of basins 204 and 205 as
delineated in the Final Drainage and Erosion Control Study for Timber Creek P.U.D. by
1
RBD Engineering (see Appendix). The site has been graded to conform as nearly as
possible to the basin delineation and runoff calculations previously completed with minor
revisions due to existing fences impeding proposed flow paths along the south property
line. A table comparing the values estimated by the RBD report and the values proposed
with this development for area, C values, and runoff for the minor and major storms is
included in Appendix B. These basins are shown on the Final Drainage and Erosion
Control Plan in the back pocket of this report and a more detailed description of each
basin is located in section 4.3 of this report.
3. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
3.1 Regulations
This report was prepared to meet or exceed the "City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage
Design Criteria Manual" specifications. Where applicable, the criteria established in the
"Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual" (UDFCD), 1984, developed by the Denver
Regional Council of Governments, has been used.
3.2 Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
The runoff from this site has been routed to closely conform to previous calculations
completed with the Final Drainage and Erosion Control Study for Timber Creek P. U.D.
First Filing by RBD Engineering Consultants dated July 1, 1994. Detention for this site
is provided in the Detention Pond 373 as noted in the above mentioned report. A
majority of the runoff from this site will be collected in an inlet in Timber Creek Drive
and conveyed to the detention pond via storm pipe.
The streets and associated drainage systems surrounding the site are existing. The
existing storm system was designed by RBD Engineering and was sized to convey the
additional runoff resulting from the development of this site.
3.3 Hydrologic Criteria
Runoff computations were prepared for the 2-year minor and 100-year major storm
frequency utilizing the rational method.
All hydrologic calculations associated with the basins are included in Appendix B of this
2
report. Time of concentration calculations for all sub -basins and a summary of the design
flows at all Design Points associated with this site are included in Appendix B.
Detention for this site is provided off site, therefore no discharge and storage calculations
were performed.
3.4 Hydraulic Criteria
All hydraulic calculations within this report have been prepared in accordance with the
City of Fort Collins Drainage Criteria and are also included in the Appendix of this
report.
4. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
4.1 General Concept
The site was graded to maintain ("as closely as possible) the drainage patterns dictated in
the Final Drainage Report for Timber Creek P.U.D. The majority of the runoff from the
site will flow to the south and into an inlet in Timber Creek Drive. A portion of the site
will drain east to Pole Pine Lane and be conveyed via gutter flow to a sidewalk culvert in
Smallwood Drive. The runoff is then conveyed in a grass swale to the detention pond.
4.2 Hydrologic Analysis of the Proposed Drainage Conditions
The Rational Method was used to determine both the 2-year and 100-year peak runoff
values for each subbasin. The Rational Method utilizes the equation:
Q=CIA
(1)
Where Q is the flow in cubic feet per second (cfs), A is the total area of the basin in
acres, C is the runoff coefficient, and I is the rainfall intensity in inches per hour. "C"
values were determined using Table 3-3 of the "City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage
Criteria Manual" and I was determined from Figure 3-1. Although new rainfall criteria
was accepted by the City of Fort Collins on March 26, 1999, this project is utilizing the
rainfall intensity duration curve dated November, 1975. The original submittal date for
this project was prior to the implementation date of the new rainfall criteria and is
therefore, allowed to utilize the previous rainfall curves.

4.3 Specific Flow Routing
A summary of the drainage patterns within each basin is provided in the following
paragraphs.
Subbasin 201 contains the east half of Timberline Road along the site frontage and a
portion of the north half of Timber Creek Drive along the frontage. Runoff from
Subbasin 201. is conveyed via gutter flow to the main entry of the site and into Subbasin
204.
The runoff from this Basin was estimated with the RBD report to be 2.04 cfs in the 2 year
event and 7.87 cfs in the 100 year event. The actual runoff from Basin 201 with this
development will be reduced to 1.97 cfs in the 2 year storm and 7.35 cfs in the 100 year
storm.
Subbasin 202 contains the western portion of the site. Runoff from Subbasin 202 is
conveyed via overland flow and swales to the interior street. The flow is then routed
southwest in the street to the main entry where the runoff combines with runoff from
Subbasin 201 and enters Subbasin 204.
The runoff from this Basin was estimated with the RBD report to be 4.46 cfs in the 2 year
event and 18.34 cfs in the 100 year event. The actual runoff from Basin 201 with this
development will be increased slightly to 5.00 cfs in the 2 year storm and 19.56 efs in the
100 year storm. This increase is due to a higher C value than was estimated.
Subbasin 203 contains the eastern portion of the site. Runoff from Subbasin 203 is
conveyed vir-overland flow and swales to the interior street. The runoff is then routed
east in the street to a concrete channel that conveys the flow to Pine Pole Lane.
The runoff from this Basin was estimated with the RBD report to be 2.26 cfs in the 2 year
event and 9.20 cfs in the 100 year event. The actual runoff from Basin 2.01 with this
development will be higher than was estimated and will be 2.54 cfs in the 2 year storm
and 9.92 cfs in the 100 year storm. This increase is due to an increase in area for this
Basin and a slight increase in.the C value.
Subbasin 204A contains the southern portion of the site. Runoff from Subbasin 204A is
conveyed via a swale with a concrete pan to the Timber Creek Drive. The runoff is then
4
combined with runoff from Subbasin 204 and routed to the existing inlet at design point
4.
Subbasin 204A deviates from the original overall drainage report for Timber Creek
Subdivision. The area contained in 204A should be contained in Subbasins 204 and 205
but, due to existing fences impeding proposed flow paths, a portion of each subbasin has
been rerouted. The total runoff from Subbasins 204A, 204 (as revised) and 205 (as
revised) does not exceed the total allowable runoff in the overall drainage report for 204
(original) and 205 (original). The total runoff estimated for Basins 204 and 205 was 5.01
efs in the 2 year event and 19.54 cfs in the 100 year event. The total runoff for Basins
204A, 204 and 205 proposed with this development is 4.72 in the 2 year storm and 17.73
cfs in the 100 year storm.
Subbasin 204 contains 3 existing single-family lots. Runoff from Subbasin 204 is
conveyed to Timber Creek Drive via existing side lot swales along Lots 1, 2 and 3. The
runoff then combines with flow from Subbasins 201, 202 and 204A and into the existing
inlet at design point 4.
Subbasin 205 contains 12 existing single-family lots. Runoff from Subbasin 205 is
conveyed to Timber Creek Drive via existing side lot swales. The runoff then flows into
the existing inlet at design point 5.
4.4 Drainage Summary
There were not any drainage problems encountered on this site. Proposed drainage
patterns were delineated in order to minimize impact on existing housing. Basins were
modified slightly from the predicted basin layout in the RBD report but total runoff from
the site is within restrictions outlined in that report.
The storm conveyance system is primarily a surface system and has been designed for
minimum maintenance. The City of Fort Collins will be responsible for maintenance of
storm drainage facilities located within the right-of-way. The drainage facilities located
on this site will be maintained by the The Townhomes at Timber Creek Master
Association..

4.5 Water Quality
This site is a portion of the overall Timber Creek Subdivision and shares detention
facilities with the overall subdivision. Water quality measures were not implemented in
the remainder of the Timber Creek Subdivision and therefore are not being proposed with
this site. The effects of any water quality measures implemented on this site would not
be evident after runoff from this site is combined with the runoff from the remainder of
the subdivision at the detention area.
5. EROSION CONTROL
5.1 General Concept
This site lies within the Moderate Rainfall and Wind Erodibility Zone per the City of Fort
Collins Zone Maps. The potential exists for silt movement from the site and into the
existing storm system during construction. Potential also exists for tracking of mud onto
existing streets which could then wash into existing storm systems.
Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Reference Manual for Construction Sites and
related calculations in Appendix D, the erosion control performance standard for the
subject site is 76.7%. The erosion control plan gives a performance standard of 77.0%.
The erosion control escrow amount is 54936.
5.2 Specific Details
To limit the amount of silt leaving the site several erosion control measures shall be
implemented during construction. The west boundary shall have silt fence installed and
gravel filters shall be installed at the metal sidewalk culverts to reduce sediment leaving
the site. All area to be sodded or seeded shall have a straw mulch applied and maintained
until a grass cover can be established. A vehicle tracking pad shall be installed at the
entry onto Timber Creek Drive to control he mud being tracked onto the existing
pavement. Any mud tracked onto the public streets shall be cleaned on a daily basis.
During overlot grading, disturbed areas are to be kept in a roughened condition and
watered to reduce wind erosion.

6. CONCLUSIONS
6.1 Compliance with Standards
All computations that have been completed within this report are in compliance with the
Storm Drainage Design Criteria Manual and the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control
Reference Manual for Construction Sites.
6.2 Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this report and on the construction plans
adequately provide for the transmission of developed on -site runoff to Timber Creek
Drive or Pine Pole Lane where the runoff will be conveyed in existing facilities to the
existing downstream detention facility. The onsite street capacities and off site storm
drain system will provide for the 2- year and the 100- year developed flows to reach the
existing detention facility. The existing receiving detention facility has been sized to
accommodate developed runoff from this site.
If, at the time of construction, groundwater is encountered, a Colorado Department of
Health Construction Dewatering Permit would be required.
