I. GENERAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
aA. Location
J
The Oak Hill Apartments P.U.D. project is located in the southeast part of Fort
■ Collins. It is bounded on the north by Oakridge Drive and the Harmony Market
development, on the east by the proposed Tennis Center, on the south by
proposed Courtyards at Miramont development, and on the west by Boardwalk
Drive, and The Upper Meadows at Miramont First Filing. It is a part of the
IN Oak/Cottonwood Master plan. The site consists of approximately 12.97 acres, and
is being planned as Multi -family apartment complex, with associated parking,
IN clubhouse and pool. It can further be described as being a part of Section 1,
Township 6 North, Range 69 West, 6th P.M., City of Fort Collins, Larimer
INCounty, Colorado.
B. Description of Property
At present the site is undeveloped, and consist mostly of native grasses. Site
topography is from north to south at approximately 1.5 %. The project is bounded
■ to the north by retail and commercial developments, to the east by a proposed
recreation center, and to the west and south by existing or proposed single family
development.
II. DRAINAGE BASINS

IN III. DRAINAGE DESIGN CRITERIA
A. Regulations
The City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria is being used for the
subject site. The criteria as established by the updated Oak/Cottonwood Farms
Overall Drainage study, and the McClellands Basin Master Drainage Plan will
also be used for this site.
B. Development Criteria Reference and Constraints
This site historically drains from the north to the southeast under Lemay Avenue
and through the adjacent Oakridge Development. Downstream improvements have
been completed within the Oakridge Development to accept a maximum storm
water runoff of 119 cfs from the entire Oak/Cottonwood Farm development.
Maximum release rates for this site are 0.2 cfs/acre for the 10 year and 0.5
cfs/acre for the 100 year storms events, as prescribed by the McClellands/Mail
Creek Master Drainage Plan for this portion of the basin (East of College
Avenue, and south of Harmony Road).
C. Hydrological Criteria
The rational method was used to determine peak developed runoff from the site.
The 2 year and 100 year rainfall criteria, which was obtained from the City of
Fort Collins, is the criteria used for this study.
Per the Overall Drainage Plan for Oak/Cottonwood Farm, detention storage for
this site is to be provided in detention pond 313, along with the proposed Tennis
Center, and the Courtyards at Miramont development. A SWMM model was
developed along with the Overall Drainage Plan, to size all the ponds within the
Oak/Cottonwood Farm, and has been included in the appendix of this report. The
Oak/Cottonwood Farm Overall Drainage Plan update calibrated the SWMM model
per UDFCD criteria, but will be revised to reflect City of Fort Collins Criteria
for SWMM modeling. The model included in the appendix of the report does
reflect the revised model, and not what is currently shown in the Overall Drainage
report update.
11 D. Hydraulic Criteria
All calculations within this study have been prepared in accordance with the
City of Fort Collins Storm Drainage Criteria.

E. Variances from Criteria
■ Two variance requests are proposed at this time, both having to do with the City
of Fort Collins Criteria for providing trickle pan conveyance structures for
channel sections with slopes less that 2 %. Small channel sections have been shown
within Subbasins 14 and 17 that are less than 2%. Due to the relatively small
amount of developed runoff from within the basins, it is requested that the
requirement for trickle pans be waived for these channel sections.
IV. DRAINAGE FACILITY DESIGN
A. General Concept
The vast majority of developed runoff from the Oak Hill Apartment site will be
conveyed to the southwesterly corner of the project by way of curb and gutter,
and open channels. From this point, developed flows from the site will be
conveyed by storm sewer system to Detention pond 313. The average slopes
across most of the pavements in the site is approximately 1.5%. A small portion
of the site (Subbasin 18) together with developed flows from the proposed Tennis
Center will be conveyed southerly through the proposed Courtyards at Miramont
development, and to Detention Pond 313.
Most of the site (Basins 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 13) will be conveyed by
curb and gutters, sidewalk culverts, and open channels; routed to Boardwalk
Drive, and conveyed by curb and gutter to a 24' curb inlet located on the north
side of the project entry road. From this curb inlet, and combined with developed
flows from the remainder of the basins, with the exception of Basins 2, 3 and 18,
conveyed to Detention Pond 313 by a storm sewer system. a portion of this storm
sewer system has previously been designed by Shear Engineering and submitted
as a part of the Courtyards at Miramont Utility Plans.
Per the Overall Drainage Plan for Oak/Cottonwood Farms, developed runoff from
adjacent Boardwalk south of the project entry road (Basin 2) will be conveyed
southerly to an existing curb inlet across from Highcastle Drive, then by open
channel parallel to Boardwalk Drive to Detention Pond 340, located at the
Northwesterly corner of Lemay Avenue and Boardwalk Drive. The inlets, open
channel and pond 340 have already been constructed, and have accounted for this
portion of Boardwalk adjacent to this project.
The part of Oakridge Drive adjacent to this project (Basin 3) is a part of Basin
204 of the Overall Drainage Plan for Oak/Cottonwood Farm. Developed runoff
from Oakridge Drive will be conveyed by curb and gutter to Lemay Avenue.
Detention for Basin 204 has been provided in the southeast corner of basin 204

at Lemay Avenue, and will be released south and parallel Lemay Avenue.
Developed flows from Basin 18 will be conveyed easterly and to an open channel
and then conveyed southerly through the proposed Courtyards at Miramont
development. These developed flows will be combined with the developed flows
from the proposed Tennis Center, through a previous agreement with the owner
of Oak Hill Apartments, and also conveyed southerly through the proposed
Courtyards at Miramont development to Detention pond 313 (also by previous
agreement with the owner of the Courtyards at Miramont. A permanent drainage
easement will be conveyed by the plat for Oak Hill for all upstream drainage
through this project.
A SWMM model was developed as a part of the Overall Drainage Plan for
Oak/Cottonwood Farm. This SWMM model has been be revised and updated to
reflect any and all changes to the original concept of the model. A copy of the
updated SWMM model is included in the appendix of this report. (Subject to
further review by the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Utility).
V. STORM WATER QUALITY
A. General Concept
Beginning in October of 1992, water quality of storm water runoff was
required to be addressed on all final designs. The Oak Hill Apartments
project is anticipating construction beginning in the summer of 1994.
Therefore for this study, we have sought to find various Best Management
Practices for the treatment of storm water runoff at the preliminary design
phase which could be implemented in the final design process.
The Oak Hill Apartment project has been designed with a number of op
en
pen
channel and swales to transport developed flows to offsite detention pond
313. The small open channels connecting the site are ideal from a water quality
standpoint, as flat slopes allow storm water to filter out pollutants in the grass as
the stormwater is transported.
The permanent detention pond 313 will also be a permanent water feature,
utilizing space below the detention storage as storage for irrigation waters. The
pond, as shown on these plans, is actual field verified contours. All volumes
shown for the pond included in this report have been based on actual field
measurements.

14 VI. EROSION CONTROL
A. General Concept
The Oak Hill Apartment development lies within the Moderate Rainfall
Erodibility Zone and the Moderate wind erodibility Zone per the City of Fort
Collins zone maps. Per the City of Fort Collins Erosion Control Standards, the
performance standard during construction for this site was calculated to be
79.5 %. The actual performance standard for this site as specified on the Drainage
and Erosion Control plan will be 80.2 %, complying with the City of Fort Collins
requirements.
After the overlot grading has been completed, all disturbed areas, not located
within a building pad, sidewalk, or roadway/parking area shall have a temporary
vegetation seed applied per the specifications shown on the Drainage and Erosion
control plan (a copy is included in the back of this report). After seeding, a hay
or straw mulch shall be applied over the seed at a rate of 2 tons/acre, minimum.
The mulch shall be adequately anchored, tacked, or crimped onto the soil per the
methods shown on the Drainage and erosion Control plan. After the utilities have
been installed, the road and parking areas shall have the pavement base course
installed as soon as practical. After installation of the curb inlets and sidewalk
culverts, they shall be filtered with a combination of concrete blocks, 1/2" wire
screen and course gravel (3/4"), according to the detail shown on the Utility
plans. Straw bale checks dams are also to be installed after the channel sections
have been graded.
All construction activities must also comply with the State of Colorado
permitting process for Stormwater Discharges associated with construction
activities. A Colorado Department of Health NPDES permit will be required
before any construction grading can occur.
VH. CONCLUSIONS
A. Compliance with Standards
All computations within this report have been completed with the City of Fort
Collins Storm Drainage Design Criteria.
B. Drainage Concept
The proposed drainage concepts presented in this study and shown on the grading,
drainage and erosion control plan, adequately provide for the conveyance and
detention of developed runoff for this project. The ultimate size of the detention
ponds will enable this site to develop in conformance with the Overall Drainage
5
2
Plan for Oak/Cottonwood Farms and the McClellands Basin Master Plan. The
ultimate pond 313 will be provided with a minimum of 1' of freeboard and an
emergency overflow outlet in the event the outlet structure and pipe become
plugged. Final design of Pond 313, and the associated outlet structure will be
performed by Shear Engineering, which is being submitted to the City for review
and comment within the same time frame as this project submittal.
In the event groundwater is encountered during construction of any portion
of the site and dewatering is used to install utilities, a State of Colorado
Construction Dewatering Wastewater Discharge permit will be required.
C. Storm Water Quality
Because Storm water quality has become a requirement, the site will need
to address this storm water aspect. The measures incorporated into this plan have
given consideration to water quality issues. The open channel presented in this
plan, particularly if the variance is granted for the elimination of concrete trickle
pans, will help with water quality.
D. Erosion Control Concept
This site will comply with or exceed the requirements as specified per the City
of Fort Collins Erosion Control Criteria.
