If you have questions about any comments, you may contact the individual commenter or direct your questions through the Project Planner, Ted Shepard, at 970-221-6343 ortshepard@fcgov.com. Comment SummarV: Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Spencer Smith, 970-221-6603, smsmith@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated 05/07/2018: Based upon the proposed driveway exhibit submitted on 5/3/18, it appears that the proposed driveway Iocation meets both the spacing criteria from Sunglow Ct. and the min./max. width criteria. It could not be determined if the proposed driveway location meets LCUASS Section 9.2.5.0 for driveway offset from the existing driveways on the north side of Rock Creek (min. 30' or directly across). Sufficient information needs to be included on the revised/amended utility plans to make this determination. If the proposed location does not meet the LCUASS criteria, then a formal variance will need to be approved. If this is the case, please coordinate with Engineering Development Review staff as to format, content, etc. of the variance request. The information provided previously was not adequate. Engineering would prefer that the applicant explore all site layout options to allow Lot 1 to access Sunglow Ct., as was previously approved for this filing. I� it is determined that the proposed configuration is unable to utilize an access to Sunglow Ct., then a shared direct access to Rock Creek Dr. would be considered. An access to Rock Creek Dr. would have to meet all applicable 04/10/2018 Larimer Countyan Area Street Standards (LCUASS) for I�n, spacing, width, etc. Specifically refer to Chapters 7 and 9 for detailed criteria. Variance requests will need to be submitted to Engineering for review and approval. Comment Number: 2 05/07/2018; Update: Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 Revised/amended Sunrise Ridge 2nd Filing utility plans will need to be submitted for review and approval by the City as part of this project. Utility plans will need to show existing and proposed driveway locations, existing curb and gutter removals, driveway details, etc., as well as any other public improvements proposed/required with this project (stormwater, etc.). It appears that sheets G1, U1, ST1, W1, R1, DR1 and D1 will need to be revised and submitted for approval. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 05/07/2018: City staff will prepare a draft of the DA amendment and route for review. If an access is going to be approved to Rock Creek Dr., the existing Development Agreement (DA) will need to be amended. Currently, the approved DA specifically prohibits driveway access to Rock Creek Dr. Comment Number: 9 Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 05/07/2018: An "Excavation Permit" will need to be obtained prior to beginning any work in the public ROW for the proposed driveway access. A Development Construction Permit (DCP) will need to be obtained prior to starting any work on the site.

The City does not allow the planting of new ash trees as they are vulnerable to a future emerald ash borer infestation. Please see the Fort Collins Plant List for approved species: https://www.fcgov.com/forestry/plant_list.pdf 2 Department: Forestry • Contact: Molly Roche, , mroche@fcgov.com Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 1 5/7/2018: Continued: � Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 Patmore Ash still appears on the second round of submittals. Please remove this species entirely from the landscape plans and replace with alternative species such as Kentucky Coffeetree or Hackberry in place of the proposed Ash. Redlines can be provided. 4/9/2018: Thank you for providing the approved landscape plan from 2006. Since then, the City of Fort Collins is not allowing any Ash species to be planted within City Limits and especially not on City right-of-way. The invasive pest, Emerald Ash Borer, will eventually reach Fort Collins and kill all untreated Ash trees. In an effort to diversify the urban forest as well as to prevent the removal of more Ash trees, please do not plant Fraxinus pennsylvanica as a part of this development. Please plant an alternative species such as Kentucky Coffeetree or Hackberry in place of the (9) proposed Ash. Comment Number: 2 5/7/2018: Continued: Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 Street Tree Notes, Permit Note, and Tree Protection Notes still need to be added to the plans. 4/9/2018: Please use the most current City of Fort Collins General Landscape Notes, Tree Protection Notes, Street Tree Notes, and street tree permit note. These notes are available from City Forestry (Molly Roche � mroche@fcgov.com). Comment Number: 3 5/7/2018: Continued: Please specify irrigated turf in the right-of-way on the plans. Comment Originated: 04/10/2018 4/9/2018: Please show irrigated turf in the right-of-way (area between curb and sidewalk) and provide a detail in the legend. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 05/07/2018 5/7/2018: There are some discrepancies between what is shown in the plant list and what is shown on the modified landscape plan.

Department: Stormwater Engineering Contact: Dan Mogen, 970-224-6192, dmoqen@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 03/26/2018 05/07/2018: Please include notes to prohibit these improvements within the tract between lots 1 and 2 on the site plan. 03/26/2018: The building locations proposed on the site plan encroach into the setback adjacent to Tract A. This tract contains public stormsewer and encroaching into this tract will not be acceptable. Please note that fences, window wells, enhanced landscaping, etc. are not allowable in this 20' tract between lots 1 and 2. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 03/26/2018 05/07/2018: Repeat comment. Awaiting update/variance request from applicant. 03/26/2018: The increased density proposed will increase the amount of impervious area on each lot compared to what was originally planned and approved. Please show how this increase affects the drainage design for this subdivision including how water quality and detention volumes are affected as well as capacities for proposed swales. Is there adequate conveyance capacity and will detention pond modifications be warranted? Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 03/26/2018 05/07/2018: Repeat comment. Awaiting update/variance request from applicant. 03/26/2018: I see a note stating that overall site grading will still be in general conformance with the original plan. Even maintaining general conformance, the grading plan will need to be altered to accommodate additional buildings. Please provide an updated grading plan showing how drainage will function on each lot. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 04/12/2018 05/07/2018: Repeat comment. Awaiting update/variance request from applicant. 04/12/2018: As this proposal is a major amendment, the site is required to meet current City Code which includes requirements for Low Impact Development (LID). These were not a consideration in the originally approved development. Please contact me to determine a plan for how this can be applied to this site. � Contact: Jesse Schlam,,'10-218-2932, jschlam@fcqov.com ! I� Topic: Erosion Control Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 03/30/2018 05/01/2018: No erosion control materials received as part of this packet. Please supply erosion control materials. *Repeat following comment* 03/30/2018: The site disturbs more than 10,000 sq. ft. and therefore Erosion and Sediment Control Materials need to be submitted. The erosion control requirements can be located in the Stormwater Design Criteria under the Amendments of Volume 3 Chapter 7 Section 1.3.3. a copy of the erosion control requirements can be found at www.fcgov.com/eroison. The Erosion Control Materials will need to be submitted at time of the first round of FDP. Erosion Control Materials that were accepted for this site prior were based off the old standards, therefore Erosion and Sediment Control Materials need to be reworked and updated to meet the current standards then resubmitted for review. Based upon the area of disturbance, a State permit for discharge of stormwater from construction activity will be required since the site is over an acre and this will need to be pulled before Construction Activities begin. If you need clarification concerning the Erosion Control Material Requirements or Comments presented above please contact myself.
