The Developer shall obtain the City's prior approval of any changes from the Final Development Plan Documents in grade elevations and/or storm drainage facility configuration that occur as a result of the construction of houses and/or development of lots, whether by the Developer or other parties. The City reserves the right to withhold the issuance of building permits and certificates of occupancy for this Development until the City has deemed such changes as being acceptable for the safe and efficient delivery of storm drainage water. 6. The Developer shall limit the construction of the off -site storm drainage improvements to the limits of construction as shown on the Final Development Plan Documents. The contractor shall re -seed and/or restore all areas that are disturbed during construction of the off -site storm drainage improvements in accordance with the Final Development Plan Documents promptly following construction. The Developer shall ensure that no negative impact occurs to the adjoining properties during the construction of these facilities. No grading shall be done outside of the approved areas as shown on the Final Development Plan Documents. 7. The drainage design for this Development provides for the evacuation of storm drainage runoff in a reasonable amount of time out of the water quality and detention facilities and into the drainage outfall system. The water quality and detention facilities have been designed to discharge storm water runoff from frequent storms over a 40 hour period through a small diameter outlet. Under the intended operation of the water quality and detention pond, there will not be standing water in the pond more than 48 hours after the end of a rainfall event. If after construction and acceptance of the detention facilities associated with this Development, surfacing or standing water conditions persist in these facilities; and if such conditions are beyond what can be expected in accordance with the approved storm water design, the Developer shall promptly, upon such discovery, install an adequate de -watering system in the detention facilities. Such a system shall be reviewed and approved by the City prior to installation. 8. The Developer shall be responsible for maintenance of all storm drainage facilities that are constructed outside of the public right-of-way. D. Streets. 1. No street oversizing reimbursement from the City is due the Developer for this Development. 2. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Developer shall be responsible for all costs for the initial installation of traffic signing and striping for this Development, including both signing and striping related to the Developer's internal street operations and the signing and striping of any adjacent or adjoining local, collector or arterial streets that is made necessary because of the Development. 3. Following completion of all public infrastructure improvements, the Developer shall continue to have responsibility for maintenance and repair of said improvements in accordance with Sections 2.2.3, 3.3.1 and 3.3.2 of the Land Use Code of the City. E. Arthur Irrigation Concrete Box Culvert 1. There shall be no construction equipment placed on top, or driven over the Arthur Irrigation Concrete Box Culvert (CBC) at any time during the construction of the project. The Developer is responsible for all new damages to the CBC. 2. It is not recommended that heavy construction traffic drive over the CBC in the alleys adjacent to the site as the CBC is in poor condition at both locations. All construction traffic shall access the site directly off of South Meldrum Street or off of the South Sherwood Street alley to avoid crossing and unnecessary loading on the CBC structures. 3. It shall be the Developer's responsibility to ensure that all contractors working on the project are aware of the CBC alley crossings adjacent to the site, as well as the CBC crossing through the center of the development site, and that proper delivery routes for materials needed for the project are communicated prior to delivery. 4. The Developer shall install orange, temporary fencing along the edges of the CBC on the Developer's property to identify the box limits and location. The fencing shall remain in place until construction of the project is complete. 5. If the CBC in the alleys adjacent to the project or on the Developer's property is damaged in any way due to construction activities related to the g Project then the entire section of the CBC must be replaced at the Developer's expense. 6. So that the existing condition of the CBC in the public rights -of - ways can be documented prior to the start of construction, the Developer shall provide the City of Fort Collins Engineering Department two weeks' notice prior to starting any construction activities. The City shall use photo documentation or video equipment to document the existing condition of the CBC in the public rights -of -ways only. 7. The Developer shall be responsible for documenting the existing condition of the CBC that crosses through the Developer's property, prior to construction. 8. If the CBC is damaged, replacement requirements for the CBC shall be as follows: A rigid 4-sided CBC structure, 2.5 feet rise and sized to allow a minimum of 50 CFS of flow per Arthur Ditch requirements. The reduced rise for the replacement of the CBC is to allow at least 6 inches of pavement over the top of the CBC where needed. Transition sections from the new CBC to the existing CBC will be required. The bottom of the top slab shall have a smooth transition between the new CBC and the existing CBC and shall be design according to AASHTO LRFD latest edition. iii. Two 36" access manholes are required for each section replaced on the CBC. The manholes are to be located outside of travel lanes. If manholes must be placed in locations where traffic is present then the manholes must be properly rated for traffic load. iv. Excavations for the replacement of the CBC shall extend two feet below the section to be replaced and one and a half feet beyond the exterior face of the wall. These areas at to be properly backfilled with suitable imported material. F. Natural Resources 1. Not applicable. G. Soil Amendment 9
