Dear Ted,
We have reviewed the staff comments dated February 20,2003 and have the
following comments:
Zoning
1. See 3.8.11(B) regarding the barbed wire as shown on the plans. Does not
comply with these standards.
Response: The existing fence will be temporarily taken down during
construction, and put back in it's original condition.
2. No handicapped parking is being shown for this building.
Response: Two handicapped spaces are shown on the Site Plan.
One is an existing space. A second handicapped parking space has been
added to the south end of a block of 26 parking spaces. Both handicapped
spaces are to be shared with the other Utility Service Center Departments.
The majority of the parking in this section of the entire Utility Service Center
will be primarily used by the Utility Service Center employees. Additional
parking, including visitor with handicapped parking, is also available in other
locations, within the entire Utility Service Center site.

3. Show back-up distance at the parking aisle.
Response: A distance is shown on the revised Site Plan.
4. Label building envelope dimensions, distance to property lines.
Response: These have been added to the revised Site Plan.
5. Please remove topo lines from final site and landscape plans.
Response: The topo lines have been removed.
PFA
1. The Meter Shop Facility at 700 Wood Street is out of access and
shall be required to be fire sprinklered.
Response: The building will be fire sprinklered.
2. Building identification shall be required.
Response. Acknowledged. The building will have identification.
Stormwater / Erosion Control
1. City of Fort Collins standard erosion control notes must be on the erosion
control plan. Please delete the notes on plan sheet CS001 under Grading
and Erosion Control.
Response: Done
2. The plan calls for the removal of the existing storm drainage pipelines, but
shows a gravel inlet filter on (I think) an inlet being removed. Why?
Response: Please see the grading and utility plans. You will note that there
is a proposed new area inlet on the west side of the new building, which will
require an inlet filter.
3. Report needs PS, EFF calculations or a legitimate request for variance.
Response: Letter addendum to drainage report now includes performance
standard effectiveness calculations.
Water & Wastewater
1. The 4-inch water service and the 6-inch fire line must be D.I.P.
Response: Done
Move the fire line and domestic water service out from under canopy area.
This may also require that the 15-inch storm drain be re-routed to avoid
conflicts. Consider connecting the fire line and the domestic service to the
water main in Wood Street.
Response: This issue was discussed at length with the City of Fort Collins'
owner's representatives early in the design process. It was and is understood
by the owner that this configuration may present difficulties in the future in the
event the water service lines must be exposed. The owner is satisfied that
there are practical means to access these services under the canopy area if
necessary, and that this configuration is the best option for them for many
reasons.
3. The existing sewer service is also shown under the canopy area of the
new building and less than 10 feet from the proposed building/loading
dock. This makes it difficult to maintain that line in the future. Consider
re-routing the 6-inch sewer.
Response.: Same response as previous comment.
Engineering
Need to vacate existing drainage & utility blanket easements for area that
building will be in.
Response: The City of Fort Collins' owner's representative will undertake the
process of vacation of the area of the new building from existing easements.
Legal description and exhibit drawing for new building area is included with
this re -submittal of plans.
Please call if you have any questions regarding the above.
Yours Sincerely,
Louise Herbert — VF Ripley Associates
Mike Carr — Sear Brown

yard.
Department: Stormwater Utility
Topic: Box Culvert Access
Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan
49
Please coordinate the box culvert access with Maureen Scullion in order to make
sure that the proposed details meet OSHA standards.
Topic: Box Culvert Profile
50
Please show crossing of future ELCO water line on the box culvert profile.
Topic: Box Culvert Trash Rack
32
It seems that the box culvert is designed with a security rack at the downstream end.
Please make sure that the grate is not anchored to the headwall as currently shown,
but is secured with lockable and movable devices such as hinges and locks for
maintenance access.
Topic: Details
55
Please provide a construction detail of the water quality outlet box that would include
all box size dimensions and all concrete and reinforcement construction detail.
Please provide an opening slot on the downstream side of the water quality pond
stilling basin for dewatering.
Topic: Erosion Control
56
Standard City erosion control notes need to be on the plan, they are still not shown
on the current erosion control plan.
The BMP's mentioned in the report versus those on the plan, versus those in the
calculations do not match. Please make it so.
Project Schedule needs to be on the erosion control plan.
What happens where with permanent revegetation? How are the swales and the
new pond to be protected from erosion until vegetation is established
Topic: Floodplain
46
Any grading work in the Poudre River floodplain will require a floodplain use permit.
Page 2
Topic: Future Building
29
Please specify the Finish Floor elevation of the future proposed building and call out
existing vehicle storage building elevation.
Topic: Grading
45
The grading plan should clearly call out the locations of the proposed retaining walls.
The line thickness for the proposed retaining walls should be changed so that it is
clearly visible on the plans.
Show existing trench drain around vehicle storage building.
Topic: Griffen Drain Crossing
54
The crossing of the Griffen drain is now shown however the elevation is not called
out. It is recommended that the drain elevation be potholed prior to construction.
Please add such a note to the plans.

REPEAT COMMENT: No new narative was submitted with this 2nd round, so it's
still unclear as to what they mean by "security fence" on the PDP site plan. It must
comply with 3.8.11(B), so they should clarify on the site plan with a note or detail
describing what they mean by "security fence".
Page 4
Original comment: Their narative states that there will be an 8' tall security fence to
tie in with the existing. Will the fence have barbed wire? If it does, then they'll have
to comply with the standards in 3.8.11(B).
Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit.
If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this
project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750.

Dear George,
The Planning Staff has had an opportunity to review the plans for the Utility
Services Center project. The following comments are offered:
1. Enclosed please find a map prepared by the Light and Power Department
describing the location of the electrical facilities. These locations should be
included on the utility plans (sheet 2 of 2).
2. It appears that some of L & P's facilities will have to be relocated, removed, or
abandoned. Please coordinate with L & P on these potential modifications.
3. ,access ramps should be shown.
4. The storm drain under the building may cause problems in case of blockage.
T\ pically, storm drains are not installed under buildings due to potential
liazards. It is suggested that this concept be discussed with Engineering. Storm
Drainage, and the utilir, services so the implications are clear to all parties.
5. The Poudre Fire Authority requests that the building be equipped with an
approved fire extinguishing system.
6. A fire hydrant should be added to the area north of the complex.
A fire access should be provided around the north side of the building as per
the master plan study of 1988.
8. Pleasc contact the Public Service Company when gas load requirements for the
view building are kno%k n so that adequacy of existing gas lines can be %crif icd.
9. The parking lot aisle along Wood Street is 30 feet wide. This could be reduced
to 24 feet and allow more landscaping along the Wood Street frontage.
300 LaPorte Avenue • P.O. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-b150
10. The southerly parking lot does not appear to have any landscaping along the
shared property line with Concrete Products. Since this area is confined by
the street alignment, opportunities for increased landscaping appear slim. Would
it be possible; to plant some trees off -site across the property line? Would the
Concrete Products person object to this? With 17 foot stalls, there will be 2
foot vehicle overhang resulting in a 3 foot strip. Please investigate how this
situation could be improved.
11. The interior parking stalls at the southeast corner of the site should be framed
by landscaped islands.
12. The compact and long term parking spaces should be identified with raised
signs indicating the parking limitations.
13. Please indicate the location of the handicap parking and ramps.
This concludes our comments at this time. The schedule for the May :1, 1990
Planning and Zoning Board hearing is as follows:
Plan revisions are due Wednesday, May 1 1990.
P.M.T.'s. colored renderings. 10 prints are due Nlay 14, 1990.
Final documents are due Thursday, May 17, 1990.
The Planning and Zoning Board worksession is Friday, May 18, 1990.
As always, please call our office if there are any questions or concerns regarding
this project.
