Tha plan specifics were discussed, particularly in the segregation of certain parking areas. Randy indicated that the segregation was purposeful, and explained the distribution patteri. The resubm:,ttal will indicate more traffic information by virtue of either the traffic study, or incorporation into the design objectives. 8. Rick felt that the entry areas should be revised, that there should be more parking for the Health Club, particularly around 160 to 170 spaces, exciu,aive of employee park u:g, diiectiy front of the building, and felt that more parking should be provided in front of the office areas. 9. Rick felt that the convenience store was a traffic circulation problem, specifically internal to the site. The moved entry would create a longer travel distance from the Prospect Street entrance to the convenience store. Rick felt that he needs to be convinced that this traffic works. 10. Rick wanted to make sure that it was understood that 7-11 would never get another curb cut on Prospect or Lemay if this plan were approved. Rick felt that it would be beneficial to break out the specific numbers for the convenience store in the traffic study. 11. Larsen Associates needs to get a copy of the Spring Creek Trail design standards in order to verify that the radii, etc. work on the relocated trail. 12. The point chart should be for a neighborhood shopping center. 13. The revisions are due Juue 5 at 12.00 at the Planning Office. 14. The School District ,3hould be contacted regarding the Welsh Street curb cut. 15. The new Spring Creek Trail should be constructed before closing off the portion of the existing portion to be removed. 16. Joe felt that he would have the other comments ready by Wednesday or Thursday. In response to Randy's question, Joe thought that it may not oe worthwhile to do a major redesign until the developer and applicant have seen the other comments in order to not create additional problems in the redesign that would be discussed i:-i the other City comments.

The site is located on the southeast corner at the intersection of Lemay and Prospect streets. Presently, approximately 400 of the site is undeveloped. An asphalt parking lot, including curb and gutter, was constructed on the remaining 60% of the site during the construction of Phase II of the Park Central project. The Phase III site comprises 1.72 acres. A convenience store/gas station is being proposed for the tract. Stormwater runoff from the Phase III site will be routed into the surrounding parking areas and collected in existing inlets. These inlets are connected to an existing storm sewer which ultimately outlets into Spring Creek. Due to a revision in the parking lot layout, one of the existing inlets (No. 1-3) will be eliminated and replaced by a new inlet (No. 1-3a). Drainage calculations for the Phase III site were included in the drainage report prepared by TST Engineers for Phase II of the Park Central project and are on file with the City of Fort Collins. Enclosed is an exhibit which shows the proposed drainage patterns for the revised parking area layout as well as a print of the grading and drainage plan from the Phase II construction drawings. Basically, the drainage basins for the revised layout and the basins as they exist today are identical. There is one slight modification in that Basin No. 4 will gain approximately 0.10 acre from Basin No. 3. This will increase the detention depth at inlet No. 1-2 by approximately 0.05 feet. Flows from the site will remain the same and will not affect the 100 year flood level in Spring Creek.
