The Timbers (sheet l of 2) May 3, 2001
I . Parking stalls and garages need to meet the min off-street parking requirements. See detail 19-03. A 40 foot setback
from the local streets is required and a 50 foot setback from the collector street is required.
3 For your information the street parking spaces will not be striped.
3. 1 do not believe that we would strip any midblock crossings of the local street. Would not normally have ramps and a
crossing at the entry neck of the cul-de-sac or at entry drives unless a midblock trail or sidewalk connection is provided
through the site. The trail crossing will probably be required to be enhanced across both streets.
4. No pedestrian ramps steal I be provided at the entry drives off of "timber Trail. Exception is the Trail crossing — the trail
crossing would be an approved midblock crossing.
5. The crossing at Regal Road and Timber Trail should be on the west side of the intersection since that is the side of the
street that the pedestrian sidewalk/link is through Westchase.
6. Minimum neck in width that has been allowed is 24 feet - This should be used.
7. It seems like in places that you have awfully long necks on the neck in areas.
8. Need to dedicate row through tract F for potential street connections and the rest of the tract needs to be dedicated as
access easement. It wouldn't hurt to move Timber Trail north either if possible.
9. Driveways need to intersect a street at a 90-degree angle.

10. The mini roundabout can not be utilized unless the access drive to the north is a street. Otherwise it is considered an
bump in the road and is not allowed. If you make the north access a street the mini roundabout needs to be designed to
standards.
11. Need to look at the intersection of Owens and Timber Trail is this within the 80-degree requirement for the specified
distance?
12. Need to show the 15 foot utility easement adjacent to Timberline Road. Need to show the 9-foot utility easement
adjacent to all other roads.
13. The entry to the cul-de-sac needs to be a radius. See standards for size.
Id. The driveway connections from the local street to the collector need to be dedicated as access easements.
15. Building envelopes can not overlap onto easements.
16. Just for my information how long is the Temporary drainage easement needed?
17. Provide an access easement for the trail going through the site?
18. See plans for additional comments.
19. Additional comments will be made once utility plans and more complete plan sets are provided for review.

1. See attached for comments on the Development A greement.
3. "Ihe Citywill support the variance request for the separation between the two driveways at the east end of the property.
Also the tlowline grade breaks on Owens Ave at the bump in although they do not meet grade break requirements do
not impact the design and allow for a smooth centerline and travel lane profile. Due to changes in the profiles and after
additional review the City dots not feel that this project has a problem with horizontal curves starting near the sag or
the crest of a vertical curve.
i Need to provide easements for all off -site grading by separate document prior to approval ofthe plans.
4. where references are made to the Timberline Design set. Reference the Correct and full name of those plans so parties
looking for them can find them.
Plat
I . The north portion of Zephyr row is labeled as Outlot E97
2. Note'14 is referenced with the note that says' 41.0' row dedicated by Poudre School District'. But note 4 doesn't seem
to correspond.
3. Add an arrow that points from the label to the south top of bank of mail creek ditch.
Utility Plans
I . Add note 47 to the general notes and list all approved variance requests.
2. Still showing a curb cut for drainage on Zephyr Rd even though the response letter said that the inlet was now going to
be installed.
5. Provide off -site easements for utilities that extend beyond property boundaries and/ or row line. Coordinate utility
casement dedications with the district. Coordinate drainage easements with the County. Show the boundary of the

7. Indicate on each plan and profile sheet what type of curb is to be used for that street. Would be helpful.
8- Need to show how you are going to tie into existing grade at the end of Zephyr Road. Remember any off -site grading
requires an casement. Show the property line location in the plan and profile for Zeph}'r.
o7 Ramp on the north side of Zephyr at Regal Rd is shown a bit big. It should only be as wide as the sidewalk (8ft) per
16-4 D.
10. Need to indicate where the transition from vertical curb and gutter to drive -over curb and gutter is to occur and over
what length for: Regal Rd' Zephyr Rd, Tilden St/ Owens Ave, and Owens Ave,'Zephyr Rd.
I I _ Add a note to the plan and profile sheets - see sheet ' for curve data.
I "' Still have some references to Timber Trail in the plans.
13. Show a thpe III barricade at the N%V property line across the sidewalk. Can note that it is not needed if the schools
sidewalk exists.
14. hhc intersection grades at Tilden and Zephyr don't match the profile. The intersection grades indicate that there is a
hi 'h point in the curb returns that is not reflected on the profile.
I5. 'Ihe island in the cul-de-sac. Nhat type of curb is a 6" outfall curb and gutter? Standard outfall curb and gutter has a
I -toot pan.
ZcpIm Road x-sections
16. Need to show/ indicate that there is to be a I -foot area approximately flat behind the sidewalk before the slope starts.
17. Indicate that no slopes arc to be steeper than 4:1 (hip).
18. A couple of areas do not look like they tie into existing grades— do they tie outside of the boundaries of what is
shown?
Swiping plan
19. Add barricade.
20. Sidewalk is labeled as a 5' walk on the north, but in x-sections and other plans it is shown as an 8-foot walk.
Typical cross sections and details
21. for Owens Ave and Regal Rd need to correct the dimensions to reflect roll-over curb and gutter if that is what is to be
used. Dimensions provided only work for vertical curb.
22. See plans for additional comments.
Comments on the draft DA dated Jan 7. 202
These comments are a combination of comments form Citv Engineering and the City Attorneys Office.
I. o"' Whereas Statement- Isn't there a more recent intergovernmental agreement than the one dated May 5, 1998.
2, Section 2.2 1 st sentence - replace'may eventually be annexed' with will be annexed'
_. Section 2 '-'"s paragraph - Appendix I of the Intergovernmental Agreement, isn't this now in the County Land Use
Code?
4_ Section 2.4 - At the County construction standards and the City construction standards the same? I thought
that they were defined in the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards.
5. Section 2A 2" `' paragraph - Don't understand what this paragraph is trying to say. Prior to annexation the
Deccloper does not have to follow the plans for utility installations.. but does after it is annexed?o
G. Section 2.7 - In a conversation with Matt Backer (City Street Oversizing Department) this is not a true statement.
We have not agreed to waive the Street Oversizing fees. It appears that there needs to be additional discussions
�N ith Mutt Baker and this paragraph written to reflect what is agreed upon.
7. Section 2.9 add to the end of the paragraph ', provided the development is constructed in one continuous phase in
a Gmcly manner.'
8. Section 3. I - Isn't it only a 3 year vested right?
9. Section 3.2 - The City has been told that'workmanlike' is a sexist tem. Can this word be changed. Competent or
proper are suggestions.
10_ Section 4 The water supply system will be subject to inspection by the Water District and the City Engineer
during construction not the County Engineer. Please change.
1 L Scction ? - The same is true here the inspection will be done by the City Engineer and not the County Engineer.
I2, Section 6 The Larimer County urban Area Street Standards are the City standards. Can remove the reference that
it is to be done to City Standards. The second to last sentence starting with 'In the event that compaction testing'
needs to be removed. Add ' and approved' to the end of the last sentence of this paragraph.
13. Scction 7.1 - reference to applicable County Standards and City's design and Construction criteria should be
changed to the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards as this is the current and common standards that are
used.
14. Section 7.2 (b) - All testing should be done in accordance with Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards
(LCl1ASS). Change this paragraph.
I S. Section 7.3 - The School District project is not a PUD. Is the name of the Timberline Plans correct? This appears
to be somewhat of It self imposed condition. This development is only responsible for the Timberline
improvements adjacent to this site, and those needed to transition the roadway on the north side of Zephyr. Okay
With us if you want this in the agreement as you have stated it.
16. Section 7.4 Standard City requirements and City Code requirements are that no building permits can be issued
until the utilities are in place and accepted and that streets are in place. City standard language is: No building
permit for the construction of any structure within the Property shall be issued by the City until the public
water lines and stubs to each lot, fire hydrants, sanitary sewer lines and stubs to each lot, and public
streets (including curb, gutter, and pavement with at least the base course completed) serving such
structure have been completed and accepted by the City. For stormwater improvements no certificate of
occupancy shall be issued prior to the Drainage facilities being in place and certified. This paragraph needs some
woik it will not be accepted as written. Also paragraph 17 of the agreement states that no BP shall be issued until
the utilities and roads are in place. These two paragraphs need to agree.
17, Section 7.4 2" 1 paragraph - We will not agree to the Timberline Road closure in the development agreement. As to
whether the road will he allowed to be closed will be up to City Traffic Operations. That decision will depend on
man% factors one cf which is the timing of the improvements. If anything is included in the development
agreement it is that City of Fort Collins Traffic Operations must approve all traffic control plans.
18. Section 7.5 - Depending on what ends up in section 2.7 (if street oversizing fees are paid ) this paragraph may
need the addition of'and the City' after 'front the County' in the last sentence.
19. Section 7.7 - The end of the paragraph item 42. Currently as the agrcement is written there is no City or CountN
rcimbursemcnt, thus none of the roads will be funded in whole or part by the City or the County.
20_ Section 8.1 what about the off -site drainage improvements, when are those required to be constructed?
21. stormwater certification for multifamily development shall be done prior to the issuance of any certificate of
occupancy for the site. For multifamily development limiting of building permits until drainage improvements are
completed is not standard.
22. Section 8.2 All units including model units and the community building will be required to certify the site and the
surrounding building area prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy.
23. Section 8.2 Is the certification still goinfl to be submitted to the County even after annexation of the property?
Scems that the certification would only be submitted to the County for any building permits that were pulled in the
County. If the building permit was pulled once the property is in the City than the certification should be provided
directly to the City.
24. Section 8.3 - Seems that the certification would only be submitted to the County for any building permits that were
pulled in the County. If the building permit was pulled once the property is in the City than the certification should
be provided directic to the City.
25, Section 8.4 - This paragraph works for prior to annexation. Upon annexation replating of the property or changes
to the utility plans would come through the City process.
'6. Section 9 - The City building department will need to review this paragraph. To my knowledge certificates of
occupancy can and will be held until landscaping improvements for the site are in or are escrowed for. The
landscape plan will need to showphasing for the City to accept phasing of the landscaping. A revision (minor
amendment) to the landscape plan can be done to show this after annexation if you do not wish to define the
phasing now.
27. Section I I This paragraph will need to be reviewed by Light and Power. I am not sure if this is standard practice.
°8. Section I6 - in the 2"a paragraph add `and acceptance by the City' after 'applicable warranty period' in the first
sentence.
29. Section 17.1 - 7 he water and sewer facilities also need to be accepted prior to issuance of any building permit.
30. Sect ion 20.1 and 20.2 - It needs to be made clear that this is only for the streets. The City is not going to accept
and take on the xeaier and sewer facilities and all other utilities and the detention facilities for maintenance. Upon
annexation of the property, which is in the process, the City will maintain the roadways after the expiration ofthe
warranty period.
3 1. Section 20.4 - Add `and City' into the paragraph after `the County'. Both the City and the County shall be
indemnified and held harmless for any damage.
32. Section 22.1 and 23.2 - Add `or City Engineer' after 'County Engineer'.
33. Section 22.3 - The water system not only needs to be installed, but accepted. Acceptance will probably be by City
Inspector.
34. Section 22.4 - the contractors need to cooperate with both the City and the County inspectors.
35- Section 22.5 - Add `or City' after `the County' in this paragraph.
36. Section 22.7 - this is redundant to paragraph 18.
37. Section 22.11 - please add the City information in with notices:
If to the City. Engineering Development Review
City of Fort Collins
P.O. Box 580
Fort Collins, CO 80522
With a copy to. City Attorney's Office

38. I also believe that there needs to be a paragraphs in this agreement that discuss the developer responsibility for the
costs for the portions of the streets that are not being built. Zephyr Road will not be built completely to the
property lino The developer is responsible for the costs of the portion not being constructed. This would normally
be solved by the Developer giving the City the money for the cost of these future improvements to be put into an
account to pay for the improvements in the future or repay the party that constructs the improvements (contribution
in aid in lieu of construction the improvements). I can provide a sample paragraph if desired. There is also no
mention of the developers responsibility for the potential future street extensions to the north. Not sure what we
want regarding these street extensions, but the developer should have a responsibility for something_
Please let me know ifyon have any questions, you can contact me at 221-6750. Thanks Sheri Wamhoff
