For the suites and mail lounge 3.5.2 and 3.8.30 requires a primary entrance to a dwelling unit to face the street or be clearly visible from the street through the use of architectural
elements. Could the building be flipped so that the south elevation faces the street or is duplicated along the northern facade?
-The building has been flipped as suggested. The primary entrance for the residents faces the main street entering the site and is clearly visible from Le Fever Street.

10/03/2022 FOR HEARING:
Staff is still concerned about the project meeting variation in color and materiality standards. Specifically with the shared color palette and materiality of shingle siding, smooth
panel, and board and batten between each model. In
some of our other meetings we spoke about the mid‑century modern design style of the project and ideas around staying true to the architectural style but with greater changes in materiality.
What consideration has the team given to wood‑look architectural paneling, modern brick, and horizontal siding?
-At the PDP hearing on November 17th, 2022, the Planning Commission was complimentary on the exterior materials and range of color as presented. The team’s intent is to maintain the
design as originally presented to the Planning Commission.

3.8.30(F)(2) requires that no similar buildings be placed next to each other along a street. The project proposes two identical buildings (Building 3 & Building 4) next to one another.
Easiest solution to address this issue would be to switch Building 4 to a pitch roof version of the 24 plex.
Thank you for the proposed solution, we agree. Building 4 now has a pitched roof as suggested.

09/30/2022: FOR FINAL ‑ REVISED:
Per discussion with Northern Engineering, the existing right‑of‑way line will be removed from the Horizontal Control Plan for FDP.
-Existing ROW is no longer shown in Horizontal Control Plan
05/13/2022: FOR HEARING ‑ UPDATED:
The existing property line still appears on the Horizontal Control Plan. Can this be frozen so that it only appears on the Existing Conditions sheet?
01/04/2022: FOR HEARING:
Please have the drawings reflect the proposed right‑of‑way as the predominant property line instead of the existing property line prior to the right‑of‑way dedication along streets.
It is difficult to follow how the site development conditions (new sidewalk, utility locations. etc.) are situated in relation to the property line that is being established.

This variance request for the Precision Drive and Brookfield Drive cross‑sections has been approved by the City Engineer on October 4, 2022.
-Thank you.
05/25/2022: FOR HEARING ‑ UPDATED:
This variance request is still being reviewed. I anticipate that it will be approved, but it may require some additional coordination. I will follow up when I have more information.
01/04/2022: FOR HEARING:
We'll look to review a variance request for the next submittal pertaining to the street design for Brookfield and Precision with respect to the inset parking and sidewalk/parkway
design. I am initially in support of the variance, but would want to verify if there are concerns from a utility or forestry perspective.

10/03/2022: FOR FINAL ‑ UNRESOLVED:
I am seeing shrubs with a mature height of three feet in the landscape bump‑outs along Precision Drive and Brookfield Drive. As I previously commented, shrubs and grasses in these
areas must have a mature height of two feet or less. You will need to select a different shrub, grass, or other landscaping in the parkway bump‑outs along Precision and Brookfield,
and at the intersection of Precision and Cinquefoil.
-(CSC) Creeping Sand Cherries (Prunus besseyi 'Pawnee Buttes') are being proposed in the bump-outs. The mature size is 1.5’x5’. I have corrected the error in the plant schedule that
incorrectly listed the size as 3’x3’.
05/19/2022: FOR FINAL:
For sight distance purposes, all shrubs and grasses in parkways must have a mature height of two feet or less. Please confirm the mature height of the shrubs and grasses to be planted
in the parkways. Trees are okay as long as there are no branches in the first six feet above ground when the tree reaches its mature height.

Thank you for submitting a variance request for driveway spacing on Brookfield Drive. This variance request has been approved by the City Engineer on September 30, 2022.
-Thank you
05/20/2022: FOR HEARING:
The proposed driveway onto Brookfield Drive is 128 feet from the intersection of Brookfield Drive and Precision Drive. This is less than the 150‑foot minimum per LCUASS Table 7‑3.
However, Engineering recognizes that this driveway is located directly across from an alley, and we will support the location of the proposed driveway. Please submit a variance request
so that Engineering can formally approve the location of this driveway.
Comment Number: 16 Comment Originated: 10/03/2022
10/03/2022: FOR FINAL:
I see that you are no longer proposing a driveway onto Cinquefoil Lane, but the Existing Conditions and Demolition Plan still indicates roughly 65 feet of curb and gutter to be removed
in the location where the driveway had previously been proposed. Do you still intend to remove this section of curb and gutter?
-No we do not plan on removing that. Existing Conditions sheet has been updated.

For the next submittal ‑ a closer look at the stormtech chambers and storm drain configuration is needed. This is located in the northeast drive aisle. We need to see that there
is enough space for all components since this site plan is very constrained.
Specifically:
A) High flows may not go through the water quality chambers; a bypass pipe needs to be added to the plans for high flows.
B) Typically, lateral pipes do not tee directly into the chambers, rather they typically, they connect to a manifold pipe at the ends of the units.
This is follow-up on Round 2 redline comments.
Stormtech system have been revamped to have high flows bypass.

Landscape Plan ‑ If ground cover for rain garden is to be grass, this will need to be seeded and not sodded. The concern is that local sod is grown in clay, which does not work for
the rain garden soil structure. There should also be some form of delineation around the edge of the rain garden. Decorative rocks or a ribbon curb are suggestions.
-The rain garden has been redesigned to include landscape boulders along the top edge. The sod has been replaced with a bio-retention seed mix. Additionally shallow root shrubs and
ornamental grasses will be added for an immediate impact.

easement provided on BOTH sides of the water main. See redlines of utility plan for more information.
Easements have been updated to show 10’ minimum separation from line to edge of easement. Refer to updated utility sheet
05/19/2022: FOR HEARING – UPDATED:
Please review the easement widths around the water mains. The utility easement must extend a minimum of 10‑feet each side of the water main.
01/04/2022: FOR HEARING:
Water mains not located in ROW require a 20‑ft easement (min.) centered on the main. There are some locations where the proposed utility easement does not provide 10‑ft on each side

Irrigation Water Service and Irrigation Plan Requirements: The first FDP submittal will need to include the following items. These are required as a result of recent changes to Fort
Collins Utilities Water Supply Requirements (WSR) and Plant Investment Fees (PIF) code. Please ensure the FDP project submittal includes:
Preliminary Irrigation Plan (PIP) – plan requirements can be found at www.fcgov.com/WCS. Please contact Eric Olson (eolson@fcgov.com or 970‑221‑6704) with questions regarding the
required PIP.
Water budget (annual usage) and peak flow (gallons per minute) for each irrigation service. Note: this information should be included on the PIP.
Landscape Plan including hydrozone table updated with 2022 values – 3, 8, 14, and 18 gallons/square foot/year for very low, low, medium, and high zones, respectively.
Water Need Form – form should be available soon. Please contact Utility Fee and Rate Specialists (UtilityFees@fcgov.com or 970‑416‑4252) with questions regarding the Water Need Form.
Irrigation service(s), including curb stop and meter location, shown on the Utility and Site Plans. Irrigation service location(s) must match information on the PIP.
On Oct. 5, 2021, Council adopted changes to Fort Collins Utilities Water Supply Requirements and Plant Investment Fees. In general developments that use more water may pay more
and developments that use less water may pay less. These changes are to be implemented 1/1/2022; more information can be found at: HYPERLINK "http://www.fcgov.com/wsr‑update" www.fcgov.com/wsr‑update

FOR THE NEXT SUBMITTAL ‑ The water main configuration in the north entrance and north drive aisle needs to be changed. We do not want a water vs. private storm crossing. We also
want the water main shortened to the minimum length necessary. Please see the redlines for the configuration we are recommending. (Note these redlines are approximate, you may need
to adjust based on site details). *This is a follow up from round 2 redline comments.
The north entrance has been adjusted to a new layout but does not follow your recommended path. We had to add more storm drains along the north side and therefore we cannot meet separation
requirements for your suggestions. Additionally, now that we have dialed on where our mechanical room is for the club house the new meters want to be stubbed where we are showing them
now. The storm is significantly deeper than the water line so there is really no conflict. We are currently meeting City of Fort Collins separation requirements. Maybe further discussion
is warranted.

Related to comment 12, I understand that PFA would like to relocate the internal fire hydrant to be closer to the drive aisle entrance on Le Fever Drive. This may set up a design
change where all buildings are served water from Le Fever and the internal water main is removed. Please consider this and coordinate with myself and PFA.
-FH has been moved to entrance off of Le Fever. All buildings are now served from public ROW except for clubhouse and mail lounge.

10/04/2022: UPDATED ‑ FOR HEARING: a draft prairie dog mitigation and removal plan is required for Hearing. The plan needs to calculate the area of the active colony on site, an
analysis of viable removal options (including passive relocation, active relocation, trap and donate, and euthanization), proof of communication with various entities regarding relocating
and trap and donate options, anticipated timeline of removal activities, burrowing owl survey methods, and methods to prevent recolonization of the site. Note that Rocky Mountain
Raptor Program (https://www.rmrp.org/, 970‑484‑7756) accepts prairie dog donations year‑round. A copy of RMRP’s donation standards will be supplied to the DRC for you to pass on to
the prairie dog consultant.
In Fort Collins, prairie dog colonies one (1) acre or greater in size are considered special habitat features (see LUC 5.1 Definitions). In addition, the Land Use Code requires
that any prairie dogs inhabiting a site must be relocated or humanely eradicated prior to development activities [LUC 3.4.1(N) (6)]. Mitigation options are based from onsite assessment
and include but are not limited to: active relocation; passive relocation; trap and donate; and payment‑in‑lieu.
Regarding black tailed prairie dogs and the project site:
a. City Land Use Code requires that for any prairie dogs inhabiting a project site, prior to any site construction work, the animals must be removed either through relocation or humane
eradication. Relocation is the City's first preference, followed by trap and donate.
b. If this project proceeds in the development review process, at least a concept prairie dog removal plan will be needed prior to Hearing.
c. Should this project achieve approval and proceed to construction, a burrowing owl survey, in accordance with Colorado Parks and Wildlife standards shall be provided prior to any
prairie dog removal and prior to
issuance of Development Construction Permit (DCP). The survey must be completed by a qualified wildlife biologist.
d. Should this project achieve approval and proceed to construction, documentation needs to be provided prior to issuance of DCP (at least one week prior to DCP meeting is ideal)
regarding the burrowing owl survey and the relocation of black tailed prairie dogs. Documentation should be in the form of a signed letter or memo from the wildlife biologist for the
survey, and from the contractor(s) for the relocation (date, time, methods).
All documents that have been requested will be supplied prior to issuance of DCP.

Thank you for making suggested species substitutions. On the plan gingko is the most commonly used shade tree. while gingko does grow in fort Collins it grows incredibly slowly and
has a high mortality rate. Please reduce the number of ginkgo currently being used on the plan. The other trees shade trees on your plan are all good species adapted for Colorado.
Prairie sentinel hackberry is a columnar tree and is not considered a shade tree. please more it to the ornamental tree list.
FOR INFORMATION
Linden trees in parking lot situations are subject to leaf burn and early defoliation as well as mortality. Consider reducing the number of lindens used in parking lot situations.
- Most of the ginkgo trees have been substituted for more appropriate species. The prairie sentinel hackberry has been revised to an ornamental tree. The lindens have been reduced
in parking lot situations.

There are a few streetlight locations that are too close to canopy shade trees. Forestry would like to keep the canopy shade trees in lieu of swapping them for ornamental trees, so
if it is possible to accommodate 40‑ft spacing between trees and streetlights that is preferred. Light and Power will provide updated light locations which may conflict with current
street tree layout. Applicant should coordinate light location and tree adjustments with Forestry and Light and Power through the next rounds of review.
- The canopy shade trees have been relocated to a minimum of 40’ from the streetlights. A few ornamental trees have been located in the right of way when a canopy tree will not fit
due to streetlight and utility spacing requirements. During the public hearing process, the Planning Commission requested the limited use of ornamental trees in order to meet street
tree requirements. We will continue to update the landscape plan as additional information becomes available form Light and Power.

Larimer County Assessor ‑ Megan Harrity, HYPERLINK "mailto:mharrity@larimer.org" mharrity@larimer.org I noticed that we show a prior ROW having been taken from this TRACT A, BROOKFIELD
REPLAT, FTC (20060078300); LESS ROW PER 20140016786;
I have attached a copy of the deed of dedication at recptn# 20140016786 for your review. I didn't see any reference to this ROW lessed out in the preliminary plat for The Savoy.
Maybe the ROW was vacated at some point?
-ROW has been annotated on Final Plat, which was submitted as apart of this submittal.
