Department: Water-Wastewater Engineering Contact: Heather McDowell, 970-224-6065, hmcdowell@fcgov.com 1. This site is located within the ELCO Water District and the Boxelder Sanitation District for water and sanitary sewer service. Please contact them for development requirements. R. Acknowledged: Design for water and sewer will be to ELCO Water District and Boxelder Sanitation District standards. 2. There is a proposed development on the west side of Timberline, the Waterfield Third Filing, was designed and approved in 2014. This project has not been built and it’s not clear what their plans are. The developer is Curly Risheill or Jim Dullea at Parker Land Investments, LLC, (303) 902-5400. In regards to sanitary sewer connection, this developer may be able to give you an idea if they plan to proceed with their development and if so, bringing the municipal sewer much closer to your site. Please contact me if you would like assistance in contacting the developer for the neighboring property. R. We have coordinated water and sanitary sewer service with Northern Engineering and Waterfield Fourth Filing. Department: Traffic Operations Contact: Martina Wilkinson, 970-221-6887, mwilkinson@fcgov.com 1. We'll need more information on the size of the church, estimated traffic volumes, and any other uses anticipated with the property (for instance, many churches are used for day care during the week). Contact me at 221-6887 to provide that information, and then we can identify the level of further traffic review - it may be that only a memo is needed. R. The ultimate church template area will be 11,580 square feet. R. There will be a maximum of 40 vehicles on the busiest days which will be Sundays. R There will be music and choir practice during the week with about 10 people in attendance. There will be board meetings periodically during the week. 2. A commercial access onto an arterial roadway requires the installation of a left turn auxiliary lane. We'll need to discuss this to see if it's feasible, or if not, the process for a variance request that can be reviewed by the City. R. At this time, full width arterial improvements will not be made. Busiest traffic days are Sundays. An auxiliary lane should not be needed. We will prepare a variance request only if necessary. Page 4 of 12 3. Work with the engineering department on required adjacent street improvements, including curb, gutter, sidewalks. R. At this time, full width arterial improvements will not be made. Department: Technical Services Contact: Jeff County, 970-221-6588, jcounty@fcgov.com 1. As of January 1, 2015 all development plans are required to be on the NAVD88 vertical datum. Please make your consultants aware of this, prior to any surveying and/or design work. R. Acknowledged: project is on NAVD88 vertical datum. 2. If submitting a replat for this property/project, addresses are not acceptable in the Subdivision Plat title/name. R. Acknowledged: address is not used. Department: Stormwater Engineering Contact: Heather McDowell, 970-224-6065, hmcdowell@fcgov.com 1. This site is located within the Dry Creek Master Drainage basin. As such, the design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Dry Creek Master Drainage Plan as well as the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. R. Acknowledged: The design conforms to the Dry Creek Master Drainage Plan and the City of Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. 2. Stormwater outfall options for this site are not immediately clear. The Larimer and Weld Ditch is located to the north of this site but they typically do not accept stormwater. In addition, there is an irrigation lateral that is located south of this site (#10 Lateral) but they will likely not accept developed stormwater either. You would need to work with the owner(s) of that lateral to get their permission to outfall stormwater at that location. Otherwise, the closest municipal storm sewer is located on Vine Drive, west of the Plummer School site. When you start design, please contact me if you would like assistance in contacting the irrigation company. R. It appears that all runoff from Voice of Truth Tabernacle Subdivision has been historically directed east to the east end of Dix Amended Plat, then further east to the existing Burlington Northern railroad tracks east of the site. Runoff is then conveyed under the existing railroad tracks in a 33"x26" CMP Arch culvert. Runoff then turns south through Buderus Exemption and under Vine Drive through a 24" diameter CMP culvert to the East Ridge Fourth development. The East Ridge Drainage Report does not appear to consider the offsite flows under Vine Drive. 3. A drainage report and construction plans are required and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Colorado. The drainage report must address the four-step process for selecting structural BMPs. R. Acknowledged: See Drainage, Sediment/Erosion Control, and Stormwater Quality Report and utility plans provided with this submittal. 4. Onsite detention is required for the runoff volume difference between the 100-year developed inflow rate and the 2-year historic release rate. In the Dry Creek basin the two year historic release rate is 0.2 cfs/acre. R. Acknowledged: On-site detention is provided. Page 5 of 12 5. Fifty percent of the site runoff is required to be treated using the standard water quality treatment as described in the Fort Collins Stormwater Manual, Volume 3-Best Management Practices (BMPs). (http://www.fcgov.com/utilities/business/builders-and-developers/development-forms-guideli nes- regulations/stormwater-criteria) Extended detention is the usual method selected for water quality treatment; however the use of any of the BMPs is encouraged. R. Acknowledged: Water quality treatment is provided. 6. Low Impact Development (LID) is required for the site. LID is a higher degree of water quality treatment with one of the two following options: a. 50% of the newly added or modified impervious area must be treated by LID techniques and 25% of new paved areas must be pervious. b. 75% of all newly added or modified impervious area must be treated by LID techniques. R. Acknowledged: Low impact development (LID) is provided. A variance request is being made. Please refer to Drainage, Sediment/Erosion Control, and Stormwater Quality Report. 7. The erosion control report requirements are in Section 1.3.3, Volume 3, Chapter 7 of the Fort Collins Stormwater Criteria Manual. If you need clarification concerning this section, please contact the Erosion Control Inspector, Jesse Schlam at 224-6015 or jschlam@fcgov.com. R. Acknowledged: No clarification required. See Erosion Control Report provided with this submittal. 8. There will be a final site inspection of the final grading and stormwater facilities when the project is complete. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) for on-going maintenance of all onsite drainage facilities will be included as part of the Development Agreement. More information and links can be found at: http://www.fcgov.com/utilities/what-we-do/stormwater/stormwater-quality/low-impact-development R. Acknowledged. 9. Per Colorado Revised Statute §37-92-602 (8) effective August 5, 2015, criteria regarding detention drain time will apply to this project. As part of the drainage design, the engineer will be required to show compliance with this statute using a standard spreadsheet (available on request) that will need to be included in the drainage report. Upon completion of the project, the engineer will also be required to upload the approved spreadsheet onto the Statewide Compliance Portal. This will apply to any volume based stormwater storage, including extended detention basins. R. Acknowledged. There will be extended detention within the site detention pond. 10. The 2017 city wide Stormwater development fee (PIF) is $8,217/acre for new impervious area over 350 square feet and there is a $1,045/acre of site review fee. No fee is charged for existing impervious area. These fees are to be paid at the time each building permit is issued. Information on fees can be found at: ghttp://www.fcgov.com/utilities/business/builders-and-developers/plant-investment-developme nt-fees or contact our Utility Fee and Rate Specialists at (970) 416-4252 for questions on fees. There is also an erosion control escrow required before the Development Construction permit is issued. The amount of the escrow is determined by the design engineer, and is based on the site disturbance area, cost of the measures, or a minimum amount in accordance with the Fort Collins Stormwater Manual. R. Acknowledged. Department: Forestry Contact: Molly Roche, , mroche@fcgov.com 1. 11/6/2017: There appears to be existing trees on-site. Please schedule an on-site meeting to obtain existing tree inventory and mitigation information. All existing trees should be retained and protected to the extent reasonably feasible. R. The inventory meeting occurred on 1-28-19. No mitigation or tree protection is required Page 6 of 12 2. 11/6/2017: Please provide a landscape plan that meets the Land Use Code and 3.2.1 requirements. R. Acknowledged. See Landscape Plan. Department: Fire Authority Contact: Jim Lynxwiler, 970-416-2869, jlynxwiler@poudre-fire.org 1. FIRE LANES > IFC 503.1.1: Fire access is required to within 150' of all exterior portions of any building, or facility as measured by an approved route around the perimeter. Due to the setback distance from N Timberline Rd, a fire lane will be required on the property. The fire lane shall be dedicated as an Emergency Access Easement by Plat or separate document and be designed to meet minimum fire lane specifications (below). R. Acknowledged. A fire lane is provided. An emergency access easement is being dedicated with the final plat. 2. FIRE LANE SPECIFICATIONS A fire lane plan shall be submitted for approval prior to installation. In addition to the design criteria already contained in relevant standards and policies, any new fire lane must meet the following general requirements: > Shall be designated on the plat or by separate document as an Emergency Access Easement. > Maintain the required 20 foot minimum unobstructed width & 14 foot minimum overhead clearance. > Be designed as a flat, hard, all-weather driving surface capable of supporting 40 tons. > Dead-end roads shall not exceed 660' in length without providing for a second point of access. > Dead-end fire access roads in excess of 150 feet in length shall be provided with an approved area for turning around fire apparatus. > The required turning radii of a fire apparatus access road shall be a minimum of 25 feet inside and 50 feet outside. Turning radii shall be detailed on submitted plans. > Be visible by painting and/or signage, and maintained unobstructed at all times. Sign locations or red curbing should be labeled and detailed on final plans. > Additional fire access requirements are triggered for buildings greater than 30' in height. Refer to Appendix D of the 2015 IFC or contact PFA for details. R. Acknowledged. Above specifications have been met. 3. WATER SUPPLY A fire hydrant providing a minimum of 1500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure is required within 300' of either building, as measured along an approved path of vehicle travel. The closest hydrant at 1126 N Timberline Rd, is approximately 1,200' away from the proposed church footprint. The project will be responsible for an infill hydrant on N Timberline Rd as well as another hydrant within 300' of the church footprint. R. Acknowledged. A new fire hydrant is proved on the north side of the drive entry. 4. FIRE CONTAINMENT VS FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM The proposed church exceeds 5,000 square feet and shall be sprinklered or be fire contained with no fire area greater than 5,000 sq. ft. If containment is used, the containment construction shall be reviewed and approved by the Poudre Fire Authority prior to installation. Also keep in mind that an A- 3 occupancy with an occupant load greater than 300 persons will require a sprinkler system. A manual fire alarm system is also required for an occupant load greater than 300. Please contact Assistant Fire Marshal, Joe Jaramillo with any fire sprinkler related questions at 970-416-2868. R. Acknowledged. A fire sprinkler system will be provided. Page 7 of 12 5. CHANGE OF USE The repurposing of the existing 1,728 sq. ft. Barn to a Craft Room will require a Change of Use review and additional comments relative to the Occupancy Group Classification assigned by the Building Department. R. Acknowledged. 6. PUBLIC-SAFETY RADIO AMPLIFICATION SYSTEM TEST > IFC 510 & 1103.2: New & existing buildings require a fire department, emergency communication system evaluation after the core/shell but prior to final build out. For the purposes of this section, fire walls shall not be used to define separate buildings. Where adequate radio coverage cannot be established within a building, public-safety radio amplification systems shall be designed and installed in accordance with criteria established by the Poudre Fire Authority. LOCAL EXCEPTION: PFA will waive the testing requirement and system installation in all buildings less than 10,000 sq. ft. and any Type V construction building less than 15,000 sq. ft. PFA policy P15- 510.1 R. Acknowledged. 7. PREMISE IDENTIFICATION: ADDRESS POSTING & WAYFINDING Addresses shall be posted on each structure as well as monument signage at the entrance on N Timberline Rd.

Where access is by means of a private road and the building cannot be viewed from the public way, a monument, pole or other sign or means shall be used to identify the structure. R. Acknowledged. Department: Environmental Planning Contact: Stephanie Blochowiak, 970-416-4290, sblochowiak@fcgov.com 1. Generally, an Ecological Characterization Study (ECS) is required by Section 3.4.1 (D)(1) as the site is within 500 feet of a known natural habitat (Larimer and Weld Canal to north and associated habitat). However, as the standard buffer would not extend from this feature into the parcel included in this project proposal, the ECS is waived for this site. However, a full tree inventory and assessment will be required. In addition, please consider the use of native plants and grasses to complement the natural feature, in accordance with Article 3.2.1 (E)(2) (3) of the Land Use Code. R. ECS is not required. Tree inventory occurred on 1-28-19. No mitigation is required. 2. City of Fort Collins Land Use Code [Section 3.2.1 (E)(3)], requires that to the extent reasonably feasible, all plans be designed to incorporate water conservation materials and techniques. This includes use of low-water-use plants and grasses in landscaping or re-landscaping and reducing bluegrass lawns as much as possible. Native plants and wildlife-friendly (ex: pollinators, butterflies, songbirds) landscaping and maintenance are also encouraged. Please refer to the Fort Collins Native Plants document available online and published by the City of Fort Collins Natural Areas Department for guidance on native plants is: http://www.fcgov.com/naturalareas/pdf/nativeplants2013.pdf. Also see the City of Fort Collins Plant List : https://www.fcgov.com/forestry/plant_list.pdf. R. Acknowledged. Page 8 of 12 3. Note LUC Section 3.2.1(C) requiring developments to submit a landscape and tree protection plan, and if receiving water service from the City, an irrigation plan, that: "...(4) protects significant trees, natural systems, and habitat, and (5) enhances the pedestrian environment.” Note that a significant tree is defined as a tree having DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of six inches or more. If any of the trees within this site have a DBH of greater than six inches, a review of the trees shall be conducted with Tim Buchanan, City Forester (970-221-6361 or tbuchanan@fcgov.com) to determine the status of the existing trees and any mitigation requirements that could result from the proposed development. R. Acknowledged. 4. In regard to lighting, especially LED light fixtures, cooler color temperatures are harsher at night and cause more disruption to circadian (biological) rhythms for both humans and wildlife. Warmer color temperature (warm white, 3000K or less) for any LED light fixtures is preferred. Please also consider fixtures with dimming capabilities so that light levels can be adjusted as needed. Site light sources shall be fully shielded and down-directional to minimize up-light, light spillage and glare [see LUC 3.2.4(D)(3)]. For further information regarding health effects please see: http://darksky.org/ama-report-affirms-human-health-impacts-from-leds/ R. Acknowledged. 5.

Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Morgan Uhlman, 970-416-4344, muhlman@fcgov.com 1. At this time additional right-of-way is needed to be dedicated with this project along N Timberline Road to get the ultimate cross-section as a 4-lane arterial. This amount is near 14.5' but will need to be confirmed with the plat for subdividing. R. A 4-Lane Arterial has a total of 115' of right-of-way. One-half of 115’ is 57.50’. There is an existing 30' right-of-way. An additional 27.5' of right-of way will be dedicated with this project. This is consistent with Waterfield Fourth Filing plat and utility plans. Waterfield Fourth Filing is dedicating an additional 27.5' of right-of way for a total one-half right-of-way of 57.50'. Page 9 of 12 2. The proposed additional access does not meet our spacing requirements for a 4-lane arterial. We will need to look at this in more detail once the project is submitted. R. Please keep in mind that the existing driveway off of North Timberline Road also services another property (Tract One, Dix Amended Plat). 3. LCUASS section 7.4.A.8 - The project will need to design the ultimate centerline, flowline and cross section of N Timberline Rd 1000 feet both directions from this project. Waterfield PUD 3rd Filing has designed the centerline and western flowline from E Vine Drive to about 900 feet past the Larimer and Weld Canal just north of the property. This information can be utilized for this project, but a full design of the ultimate configuration is still required with this project. Here is the link to the plans, if this does not work, please go to technical services for help. (http://citydocs.fcgov.com/?cmd=convert&vid=51&docid=2332030&dt=US- UTILITY+ENGINEER+STAMP) R. North Timberline Road Ultimate conditions plan and profile (including centerline and flowline design) adjacent to the Voice of Truth site has been coordinated with Northern Engineering and is consistent with the ultimate design for North Timberline Road included with the Waterfield Fourth Filing plans. 1. Frontage improvements will be required with this project. This includes, curb, gutter, parkway, and sidewalks. R. Acknowledged: The North Timberline Road ultimate curb, getter and walk has been designed. The ultimate section will not be built with this project. 2. Larimer County Road Impact Fees and Transportation Expansion Fees are due at the time of building permit. Please contact Kyle Lambrecht at 221-6566 if you have any questions. R. Acknowledged. 3. The City's Transportation Development Review Fee (TDRF) is due at the time of submittal. For additional information on these fees, please see: http://www.fcgov.com/engineering/dev-review.php R. Acknowledged: TDR application and fees are included with this submittal. 4. Any damaged curb, gutter and sidewalk existing prior to construction, as well as streets, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, destroyed, damaged or removed due to construction of this project, shall be replaced or restored to City of Fort Collins standards at the Developer's expense prior to the acceptance of completed improvements and/or prior to the issuance of the first Certificate of Occupancy. R. Acknowledged: Utility plans notes indicate this. 5. All public sidewalk, driveways and ramps existing or proposed adjacent or within the site need to meet ADA standards, if they currently do not, they will need to be reconstructed so that they do meet current ADA standards as a part of this project. R. Acknowledged: ADA standards are met. 6. Any public improvements must be designed and built in accordance with the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS). They are available online at: https://www.larimer.org/engineering/standards-and-guides/urban-area-street-standards R. Acknowledged: All design is in accordance with Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS). 7. This project is responsible for dedicating any right-of-way and easements that are necessary or required by the City for this project. This shall including the standard utility easements that are to be provided behind the right-of-way (15 foot along an arterial, 8 foot along an alley, and 9 foot along all other street classifications). Information on the dedication process can be found at: http://www.fcgov.com/engineering/devrev.php R. Acknowledged: North Timberline Road right-of-way and a 15-foot utility easement are being dedicated with this project. See final plat. 8. Utility plans will be required and if needed a Development Agreement will be recorded once the project is finalized. R. Acknowledged: Utility Plans included with this submittal. Page 10 of 12 9. As of January 1, 2015 all development plans are required to be on the NAVD88 vertical datum. Please make your consultants aware of this, prior to any surveying and/or design work. R. Acknowledged: project is on NAVD88 vertical datum. 10. A Development Construction Permit (DCP) will need to be obtained prior to starting any work on the site. R. Acknowledged. 11. LCUASS parking setbacks (Figure 19-6) apply and will need to be followed depending on parking design. R. Acknowledged: parking setbacks meet Figure 19-6 requirements. 12. All fences, barriers, posts or other encroachments within the public right-of-way are only permitted upon approval of an encroachment permit. Applications for encroachment permits shall be made to Engineering Department for review and approval prior to installation. Encroachment items shall not be shown on the site plan as they may not be approved, need to be modified or moved, or if the permit is revoked then the site/ landscape plan is in non-compliance. R. Acknowledged: There are no encroachments. 13. The development/ site cannot use the right-of-way for any rain gardens to treat the storm runoff. We can look at the use of rain gardens to treat street flows – the design standards for these are still in development. R. Acknowledged. 14. Doors are not allowed to open out into the right-of-way. R. Acknowledged: They don’t. 15. Bike parking required for the project cannot be placed within the right-of-way and if placed just behind the right-of-way need to be placed so that when bikes are parked, they do not extend into the right-of- way. R. Acknowledged. 16. In regards to construction of this site, the public right-of-way shall not be used for staging or storage of materials or equipment associated with the Development, nor shall it be used for parking by any contractors, subcontractors, or other personnel working for or hired by the Developer to construct the Development. The Developer will need to find a location(s) on private property to accommodate any necessary staging and/or parking needs associated with the completion of the Development.

Department: Electric Engineering Contact: Austin Kreager, , akreager@fcgov.com 1. Fort Collins Light and Power currently serves the residence on the property with overhead electric power. The new building would be required to be serviced with underground power distribution. Please work closely with us and keep us informed as to what your power requirements will be. R. Understood: We noticed that Waterfield Fourth had several power pole removals on the west side of North Timberline Road. But they did not accommodate the service to the existing house at 1108 North Timberline Road. Please provide us direction on your requirements. We will provide you our power requirements for the church. 2. As your project begins to move forward please contact Light and Power Engineering to coordinate the streetlight, transformer and electric meter locations, please show the locations on the utility plans. R. Thank you for providing guidance on the transformer location. We have further coordinated the transformer location by coordinating with landscaping and parking lot lighting. Page 11 of 12 3.
