Re: Drainage Report for proposed Burger Inn, 1298 North College Ave.
Dear Tom:
Submitted herewith is the drainage report for 1298 North College
Avenue. The hydrology and hydraulic analyses are in compliance with
the City of Fort Collins, "Storm Drainage Design Criteria: date May,
1984.
Based on the conclusion.of.:this_:report,,-:the:.applicant would__like,_:to
request a variance from the City of.Fort Collins' requirement on site
detention.
If you have any questions, comments or need additional information

DRAINAGE REPORT
This drainage report is compiled from the following references.
'1. Storm Drainage Criteria, City of Fort Collins, May 1984.
2. Dry Creek Major Drainage Way Planning, City of Fort Collins,
April, 1980.
3. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FIMA) Maps.
4. D & W, Inc. Survey and Topo Map.
5. Reigles Design Group, Architectural Plan.
The drainage report is for 1298 North College Avenue. The site exist
along the east side of College Avenue, north of Conifer Street and
south of Bristlecone Street. The size of the site is 0.913 acres.
The site is zoned HB - Highway Business,.within the limits of Fort
Collins city.
I. Estimated runoff quantity "Q" in cfs under existing conditions.
1. Using Rational Method Runoff Storm Drainage criteria for
2 year initial storm, based on design storm frequencies
for Highway Business.
a - The existing description of zoning is classified as
highway business with Runoff Coefficient equal to
0.95 (C = 0.95)
b - The average slope with 1.09 foot drop within 185 feet
1ong.is 0.006 (S = 0.6%).
c - Area of the proposed site is 0.913 acres = 39,775.00
square feet.
d - To determine time of concentration in minutes
T = 1.87 ( 1.1 - C_Cf) D1/2
c S1/3
Where
T c = Time of concentration, minutes
S = Slope of basin,
C = Rational Method Runoff Coefficient
D = Length of basin, feet
Cf = Frequency adjustment factor
S = 0.6%
D = 185 feet
1.
C = 0.95
C f = 1.0 for 2 year storm
Then 1.87 1.1 - 0.95 x 1.0 )( 185)1/2
T (. 21.00
c
( 0.006 )1/3 minutes
e - Determine precipitation .in inches per hour from figure
-
(3-1) Storm Drainage Design.
I = 1.8 inches/hour
f - Determine runoff quantity
Q = CfCIA
Where = Flow quantity, CFS
A Total area of basin, acres
Cf = Frequency adjustment factor
C = Runoff Coefficient
I Rainfall intensity, inches/hour
Then Q = (1.0) x (0.95) x (1.8) x (0.913) = 1.561 CFS
2. Using Rational Method Runoff Storm Drainage criteria for
10 - year initial storm.
Cf = 1.0 C = 0.95
D = 185 feet S = 0.006
Then
Tc = 21 minutes
From figure (3-1) I = 3.7 inches/hour
Q = CfCIA
= (1.0) x (0.95) x (3.7)(0.913) = 3.21 CFS
3. 100 -,Year Major Storm for existing conditions.
Cf = 1.25 C = 0.95
C f C (1.25) x (0.95) = 1.19 which should not exceed
1.0, Then C f C = 1.0
T
c = 14.minutes
From figure (3-1) I = 6.2 inches/hour
2.
Q = (1.0) x (6.2) (0.913) = 5.66 CFS
II. Estimated Runoff Quantity "Q" in CFS after proposed development.
1. Determinerunoff quantity for 2 year Design storm returned
period as initial storm.
Under HB - Highway Business Zoning, the Rational Method
Runoff.Coefficient is 0.95 (.0 = 0.95 ). If we calculate
the Composite Runoff Coefficient it will be as follows:
Run off Coefficient Area Square Feet
Asphalt and Roof, C = 0.95 31,422.25
Lawns with slope 2%, C = 0.10 8,352.75
The Composite Runoff C
N
C - ( ClAl
Where
C Composite:.Runoff..Coe£ficient
C.1 = Runoff Coefficient for specific area A
A. = Area of surface with Runoff Coefficient C.
1
N = Number of different surfaces to be considered
At = Total area over which C is applicable;
The sum of all Ai's is equal to At
C = (0.95) x (31,422.25) + (0.10) x (8,352.75)= 0.77
39,775.00
Time of Concentration in minutes for 2 year storm
T = 46.18 minutes
c
Precipitation in inches/hour from figure (3-1)
I = 1.1 inch/hour
Runoff quantity for 2 year storm
Q = 0.773 CFS
The difference in runoff quantity for 2 year initial storm
3.
before and after proposed development is
Before development Q = 1.561 CFS
After development Q = 0.773 CFS
Difference = 0.788 CFS les runoff
Since the amount of runoff is reduced after development than
before, as a result of developing new landscaped area to the
proposed site.
2. Determine runoff quantity for 10 year Design storm returned
period as initial storm.
Time of concentration
T = 46.18 minutes
c
Precipitation in inches/hour from figure (3-1)
I = 1.7 inch/hour
Runoff quantity for 10 year initial storm
Q = 1.2 CFS
Also, the difference in runoff quantity for 10 year initial
storm before and after proposed development is
Before development Q = 3.21 CFS
After development Q = 1.20 CFS
Difference = 2.01 CFS less runoff
3. Determine runoff quantity for 100 year major Design storm
return period.
Time of concentration
T = 19.24 minutes
c
Precipitation in inches/hour from figure (3-1)
I = 5.3 inches/hour
Runoff quantity for 100 year major.storm
Q = (0.963) x (5.3) x (0.913) = 4.66 CFS
Finally, the difference in runoff quantity for 100 year major
storm before and after proposed development is .
Before development
After development
Difference
4.
Q = 5.66 CFS
Q = 4.66 CFS
= 1.00 CFS less runoff
Conclusion
The proposed development at 1298 North College Avenue will cause
a reduction in the amount of runoff quantity by
0.788 CFS for,2 year storm
2,01 CFS.for 10 year storm
1.00 CFS for 100 year storm
Since the existing condition has .no detention pond and because the
proposed development will reduce the runoff that is generated by
precipitation, the applicant would like to request a variance from
the.City of Fort Collins' requirement for detention pond. However,
the site is located within the 100 year flood plain for Dry Creek
and a small part of the property on the southwest corner is in the
flood way of Dry Creek.
P.S. You will find enclosed a plat by D & W, Inc. which shows
the existing structure, contours and existing elevations. Also,
from major drainageway planning for Dry Creek,.April 1980, the
following information concerning the flood elevation was gathered.
100 year flood elevation @ section 26 is 4974.20 feet.
10 year flood elevation @ section 26 is 4973.50 feet.
