Dear Ric:
City Staff has reviewed your submittal for Overland Hills, Preliminary
Subdivision and offers the following comments:
1. A 6' utility easement is required on each lot along the side lot line
between Lots 8 & 9. -k-D Vx, LAWA- A
ep�.2. What appear to be utility easements on all the lots, front and back, are not
labeled as such_ Please label these "Utility Easements" and define the
widths of these on the plat.
3. A 50' wiue
trail easement shall be dedicated to the Citv
of Fort Collins_for
the Sprint{
Creek Trail, as
identified in the Parks and
Recreation Master
Plan. This
may be included
as part of the 75' Utility &
Drainage Easement
as shown.
There is concern
as to how the area between
Proposed Overland
Trail and
Spring Creek will
be developed. The entire
width shown is not
needed for
the trail easement. The City should not be
put in the position
of building the east 1/2 of
Overland Trail just because
it owns the trail
ROW.
4. It will be the responsibility of the developer to enter into an agreement
with the City at this time to participate in the construction of the local
street portion of a future Overland Trail extension. The Overland Trail
extension alignment should be shown on this plat.
5. The engineering and stormwater concerns and potential impacts associated
with future construction of Overland Trail extension are significant and
should be considered simultaneously. A preliminary level of design for
Overland Trail will be necessary to address the issues.
6. The Stormwater Utility drainage concerns are as follows:
Plat'Plans vw-� urn AAA VAA^
a) Spring Creek should be in a Tract rather than an —easement. The Citv
Will maintain natural drainagcways.
b) The drainage swalcs between Lots 8 & 9 and behind Lots 7 & 8 must
be in easements.
0�-c) Extend the floodplain delineation through the property to the north.
C%fd) Show the extended Overland Trail alignment.
e) At Final, provide specific grading information.
f) Will the 2 sheets showing the pond be included with the Utility set?
They both need to be revised to show any changes required by the
Overland Hills construction.
g) Has the outfall through the farmer's property to the north been
resolved? It needs to be prior to Final approval.
Report
a) Volume calculations for additional volume in the detention pond need to
be redone.
b) This site is unusual due to the fact that the Spring Creek floodplain
mapping stops at Horsetooth Road (extended). Your calculations for the
extending the floodplain through your site must take into account the
extended Overland Trail cross section. Also, your water surface
elevation at the existing farm road must match the elevation shown in
the Master Plan.
Susan Hayes would like to walk the site with the engineer and architect prior
to final design. Please contact her at 221-6589 to set up a time.
DV-- 7. The ROW width for both Platte Court and Platte Place should be shown on
the plat.
p�-'-.8. The existing/proposed access to the existing residence to the northwest of
this subdivision should be shown on the plat.
9. Access to this subdivision is contingent on The Amended Plat of Lots 24,
25,' and 26, Springfield Subdivision, Sixth Filing being recorded. That
subdivision is in the County and must be recorded prior to fin 1 approval
�( of Overland Hills. "` k&4:0 to a°� (/X�.�. -.6 C�{ �.
10. ire hydrants must be no more than 400' apart to provide adequate service.
A hydrant should be shown along Platte Court approximately at the
4 f northeast corner of Lot 1.
