Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 07/03/2017 10/04/2017: Please see redlined Utility Plans for minor comments. 07/03/2017: Please refer to redlines for Utility Plan and Plat cleanup. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 07/03/2017 07/03/2017: Prior to the finalization of this project, Utility Plan revisions will need to be finalized with East Ridge Second Filing. Utility plan sheets for the irrigation line are not yet finalized. The easement by separate document is needed first. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 07/03/2017 07/03/2017: The temporary turnaround can't be vacated by the plat. It must be vacated by separate document. The temporary turnaround is needed if this development occurs after the lots to the south in East Ridge Second Filing are completed. Comment Number: 10 Comment Originated: 07/03/2017 10/04/2017: Some of the keymap locations are still off, see redlines. 07/03/2017: The keymap on some of the Storm Drain sheets are incorrect. They do not match the sheet numbers. Please fix. Topic: Plat Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 07/03/2017 07/03/2017: Is there a reason the ELCO water line easement is being dedicated by separate document instead of the plat? These waterline easements need to be shown on the Utility Plans.

Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 06/28/2017 06/28/2017: Light & Power will likely need to utilize some tracts and their associated easements to run primary power lines. Minimum distances from other utilities will need to be adhered to. Please coordinate with Light & Power as early in your design phase as is possible to avoid conflict with other utilities.

Department: Outside Agencies Contact: Brian Zick, , Page 3 of 9 • • Topic: General Comment Number: Comment Originated: 07/07/2017 On behalf of the Boxelder Sanitation District (BSD), Farnsworth Group has reviewed the Preliminary Development Plan of East Ridge 3rd Filing identified as: 1. Preliminary Plat Sheet 1-9 2. April 28, 2017 Response Letter from City of Fort Collins 3. East Ridge Third Filing Site Submittal - Final Development Plan 4. East Ridge Third Filing Landscape Submittal Final Development Plan The District hereby advises as follows: 0 There is no objection to this proposal. 0 Responses required to comments below. D The District will respond at the hearing date of _Comments: The District has reviewed this project and 2 previous submittals and additional information has been added. 1) On sheet 1 of the Preliminary Plat there is a Sanitary Sewer Easement Note. Clarify where the easements are that pertain to this note. 2) Tracts B, F, and J appear to be the tracts that will contain the sewers that will ultimately be dedicated to the Boxelder Sanitation District. The plat indicates that these tracts are to be maintained by the HOA. BSD will need to access these Private Drives in the future and would like to see provisions in the HOA agreement that specifically states BSD access and ability to maintain the sewers into the future. The District is concerned about access for large vehicles in these narrow Private Drives. 3) Sheet 4 of the Plat shows a vacation of sewer easement will be provided in separate documents. Please provide the necessary documents. 4) A swimming pool has now been added to the plan. Swimming pools have a big impact on the sewer system when they are drained. Provide documentation that shows how the pool will be operated and how BSD will be notified about any discharges from the pool to the sewer. 5) The District has reviewed the sewers in Tracts B, F and J after prior reviews and feels that the 20-foot utility easement is inadequate for both water and sewer utilities. BSD understands that this process has proceeded without discussion on this issue and it may be too late for modifications. However, BSD expects to see similar developments in the future and request consideration of how long-term operation of their system is impacted by this type of high density development. The District has adequate capacity to service the property referenced above. The District is in full compliance with Federal and State water quality requirements. We look forward to review future submittals on this project Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Contact: Randy Siddens, , Topic: General Page 4 of 9 • • Comment Number: Comment Originated: 07/07/2017 East Larimer County Water District (District) has reviewed and redlined the documents received regarding the above project and has the following comments: 1. Utility Plans: a. General layout of the water distribution network appears appropriate and follows previously submitted drawings (PDP). Per discussion with developer and engineer, revisions will be made to some of the waterlines and water service (and meter) locations to provide single metered water service to the attached single-family units (3, 4 and 5-plex units). b. Easements: Locations to be verified and easements granted following revisions noted above (1.a). c. Irrigation Taps: Irrigation tap locations must be identified and shown on the utility drawings. 2. Landscape Plans: a. District staff communicated to the design engineer that meter locations must not be encumbered by shrubs or trees within a minimum 5-ft radius of the meter, or 8-ft radius of a water service line. Future landscape plans will need to show water lines and service lateral locations in relation to landscaping to insure adequate separation (no service lines shown on current landscape plans). b. LP405: See attached redlines re: tree separation from service line(s) c. LP406: See attached redlines re: plantings/shrub separation from valve Drawing redlines are available at the District office for pickup (contact has been made with design engineer). Return redlines with next round of revisions for use in backchecking. Please contact me if there are additional questions regarding this review.

Department: Stormwater Engineering Contact: Heather McDowell, 970-224-6065, hmcdowellgfcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 15 Comment Originated: 10/01/2017 10/01/2017: Phasing Plans— please verify that you intend to build the upstream segment of storm drain C as part of Phase 1 B (this segment actually located within the extents of Phase 1C). I just want to be sure since the construction installation and the drainage certification requirements for each phase will need to match what is shown on the phasing plans. Page 7 of 9 • Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 10/01/2017 10/01/2017: Grading Plans— There are some labels shown on the driveways at the corner units of some of the buildings that either show the driveway grade at the garage face or the finished grade at that location. Just a note to say that some of these elevations are —0.5' below the others. The grades along the railroad embankment look to be steeper than 3:1 in some areas. These areas may need to be surfaced with ECB's or something similar? There are still a few buildings shown that look to have minimal slope away from the foundation. Typical geotechnical recommendations are that the FG is required to be at least 6 inches below FF and there is also a 5-10% slope away from the foundation. (Please verify with your geotech). I just want to make sure that you aren't creating inadvertent low spots that don't drain anywhere and create inadequate drainage issues and neighbors complaining. Please note that swales less than 2% will be required to have either a soft pan section (> 1%) or a concrete pan (< 1%). Please include details for these pans. Call me if you need a detail for a soft pan. Comment Number: 17 Comment Originated: 10/01/2017 10/01/2017: Storm Sheets—There are several storm pipe runs that look like they could be shallower. I've noted these locations on the redlined plans. For private storm systems outside of the ROW, we are ok with shallower pipes and do not require a minimum depth as long as you can show that the 100-yr HGL is still below FG. Comment Number: 18 Comment Originated: 10/01/2017 10/01/2017: Drainage Report—all previous comments were addressed. No further comments at this time.
