Page 13 46 Pedestrian/bike path & bridge questions Issue Contact: Mark Jackson It is still unclear to me that the applicant has agreed to build the bike/pedestrian path as shown on the site plan. This includes the bridge necessary to cross over the canal/buffer area. I need clarification as to who is planning to pay for and build this facility, and when. 47 Brook Drive pedestrian connection Issue Contact: Mark Jackson Will this development make a pedestrian connection along the Brook Drive ROW east to the Skyline Acres subdivision at Richmond Drive? Department: Technical Services 127 Issue Contact: Jim Hoff Plat boundary closes. Legal does not match boundary. 128 Issue Contact: Jim Hoff North quarter corner does not match city's records (date). 129 Issue Contact: Jim Hoff Description of 1/16 corner is not shown. 130 Easements and road ROW are not locatable. 131 What is a "shared easement"? 132 Issue Contact: Jim Hoff Issue Contact: Jim Hoff Issue Contact: Jim Hoff What are the restrictions, etc on the 25' "natural area buffer"? 133 Text is too small - need to see a new plat. Issue Contact: Jim Hoff Page 12 137 Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Drainage Report: Please revise time of concentration calculations to reflect the gutter travel time. This will reduce the overland lengths and better represent the actual basin. Please revise detention pond volume calculations. Please check intensities and 100 yr. C coefficient. City of Ft. Collins allows FAA method for pond sizing. Please discuss sub- basin "P". Undetained flows from the site must be taken into account in the overall release rate. This is accomplished by subtracting the undetained flows from the overall release rate to calculate new pond release rate. Please change water quality structure to City standard detail. The currently shown detail does not allow release of flows between the water quality needs and 100 yr. event. 140 Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Utility Plan Please use different linetypes for the various utilities. Please label all drainage features. 141 Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Please show all storm sewers on the street profiles including alignments, size, and location.142 Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Please provide concrete encasements for stormwater crossings with waterlines per City requirements.143 Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Please provide a crosspan on Horsetooth Road and show on street plan.

And the pedestrian access easement within the ditch easement? 61 Please see plat for additional comments. Drainage and erosion control plan: Please show additional flow arrows. Fill Issue Contact: Katie Moore Issue Contact: Katie Moore Issue Contact: Katie Moore Please more clearly show existing contours and more clearly label new contours. Page 5 Please contact Ward Stanford, at (970)221-6820, if you have questions about his comments. 171 Issue Contact: Steve Olt The Light & Power Department offered the following comments: Electrical facilities will include pad -style transformers between the sidewalks and curbs. Electric meters will need to be 'ganged' on each building and their locations coordinated with Light & Power Engineering prior to development. The Landscape Plan needs to show the planned streetlights (as shown on a red - lined plan that has been forwarded to TSP Five). Street tree locations will need to be adjusted to provide a minimum of 40' clearance to each streetlight. Please contact Doug Martine, at (970)224-6152, if you have questions about his comments. 172 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Ron Mills of the Right -Of -Way Department indicated that he cannot find the trail dedication on the subdivision plat. It needs to be shown. 173 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Laurie D'Audney, representing the City's water conservation requirements, indicated that her comments are on an Irrigation and Water Conservation Comment Sheet (that has been forwarded to TSP Five). 174 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Rick Lee of the Building Inspection Department offered the following comments: A copy of the various codes that the Building Department will enforce is attached to this letter. The information submitted suggests that multi -family housing will be provided. The City wants to inform you that they are enforcing the 1998 ANSI for accessibility and a State statute, which requires that on common property 1 accessible (Type 'A') unit for each 7 units (or fraction thereof) shall be provided. Accessibility is required in most R-1 construction, so pay careful attention to the requirements of ANSI and what items are required in a Type 'A' dwelling unit. Another more commonly missed component is the required fire -rated separation between units and in attic spaces. Page 4 Please contact Tim Buchanan, at (970)221-6361, if you have questions about his comments. 168 Issue Contact: Steve Olt The Parks Planning Department offered the following comments: * Regarding the proposed recreational trail: an easement from VOA is needed on the subdivision plat. an easement is needed from the PV&L Ditch Company. * Similar to the approved Mountain Ridge Farm, 2nd Filing agreement: this developer (VOA) is to fund 1/2 of the 8' wide recreational trail (4' of width) on this property. this developer (VOA) is to fund the cost of the recreational trail bridge crossing over the PV&L Canal. * The City will have funds available in 2002 for their portion of the recreational trail construction. Please contact Craig Foreman, at (970)221-6618, if you have questions about his comments. 169 Issue Contact: Steve Olt AT&T Broadband (cable TV) has indicated that they would like to service this project with CAN plant. 170 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Traffic Operations offered the following comments: * No TIS was provided. Please provide a TIS. Has a scoping meeting been conducted for this project? * Please provide a Signing and Striping Plan for Horsetooth Road. Sheet C3.2 of the utility plans: Street width shown is 70'. It should be 83' for a 4-lane arterial street. Why is only 35' of half right-of-way being indicated? - East roadway transition should be per City Street Standards, Figure 8.03, that provides a transition of 320' for this roadway. * Sheet C3.5 of the utility plans: Details should state the respective City Street Standards figure number. Page 3 Call 221-6225 to discuss these comments specifically. 139 Issue Contact: Clark Mapes Front stoops the sidewalks leading to individual units are a positive aspect of the plan. But typically, a dwelling unit benefits from some sort of stoop or landing. In this case the 3' wide walk leading clear to the entrance misses the opportunity to emphasize the entrance, maybe offer a place to put a chair, to wait, etc. It looks like it may be an oversight due to the 50 scale plans. In fact, there is no place sit outside anywhere on the plan. No patio, porch, urban walkway, etc. despite the urban intensity of the development. Can an entry landing be provided for each unit? Is there a reason not to? Department: Current Planning 165 Issue Contact: Steve Olt The Post Office has indicated that they have no comments regarding this development proposal. 166 Issue Contact: Steve Olt The Pleasant Valley & Lake Canal Company has indicated that: There will need to be written approval with their Board of Directors for any shared use of the pathway/right-of-way. " There will need to be a written agreement for any ditch crossing. Any maintenance or liability that the City takes over would also require a written agreement with the City of Fort Collins. 167 Issue Contact: Steve Olt The City Forester offered the following comments: " Add the standard Landscape & Tree Protection notes to the Landscape Plan (please see attached). Two trees marked A & B on a red -lined Landscape Plan (that has been forwarded to TSP Five) are noted to be removed due to the utility easement. This appears to be necessary; however, further explanation is needed. Trees marked C & D on a red -lined Landscape Plan (that has been forwarded to TSP Five) will need to be mitigated with a total of 6 upsized mitigation trees. Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins I VOA Natural Sevices Date: 10/2/01 Robin Keller 1660 Duke St Alexandria, VA 22314 Staff has reviewed your submittal for FORT COLLINS VOLUNTEERS OF AMERICA, ELDERLY HOUSING, #14-01, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Advance Planning 138 Issue Contact: Clark Mapes East Perimeter Crowding/Lack of Trees There is an awkward and incompatible relationship created by the FRONTS of buildings facing what is technically a SIDE setback area, with a long, straight 6-foot fence typical of REAR yards. The flatness and repetition of the buildings and the lack of trees add to the issue. I acknowledge how the number of units squeezed into the narrow portion of the site has created this situation, and also that the number of units adds to the affordability. But at a minimum, this area needs more attention to the fence and the repetitive building finishes, and it needs trees. See the sketch comments on the Side Elevation showing a more architectural fence 8 feet high, with an arbor top, which can have vines on it (I suggest Engelmann Ivy and Purpleleaf Wintercreeper for low maintenance), and trees. The trees can mingle with the fence and ivy. Carefully considered medium size trees will be needed. I suggest Redspire Pear, Aristocrat Pear, Centurion Crabapple, Cardinal Royal Mountain Ash, and possibly Bur Oak. These are either tight and vertical, or else lend themselves to fitting the space. (Bur Oak because it is one shade tree with an informal canopy shape that could be trained to fit the space.) ALL tight vertical trees should not be used because that could simply serve to emphasize the confining space. Based on this, please design an architectural fence for visual interest and durability to create more of a court yard space to which the buildings can be oriented. Please provide some color variation in the vinyl siding and prefinished gutters. Can there be at least two color schemes, to lend at least a little bit of individual identity and visual interest? This is most important in the narrow east perimeter strip, but also pertains to the whole development plan.
