If students don’t have access to adequate outdoor parking, they will want to bring their bike indoors. ● Higher-capacity racks will provide the most efficient use of space. CSU uses Cora Expo 7510 Series Racks (http://cora.com.au/bikeracks/multiplebikeracks/). ● Refer to CSU Aesthetic Guidelines pg 2-11 for landscaping and placement tips for outdoor racks (https://www.fm.colostate.edu/files/forms/aesthetic_guidelines.pdf) Bike Repair Stations ☒ Include tools and air pump, indoors if possible Tailored Recommendations: CSU students are more likely to ride their bikes when they are well-maintained, and may stop riding due to easily-prevented issues such as a flat tire or squeaky chain. Providing a fix-it station with tools and a pump can help students to keep their bikes in working condition. CSU uses the Dero Fixit stands at high-traffic areas on campus (https://www.dero.com/product/fixit/) When you add a repair station, please notify City of FC to add to their list of stations across the City.

Collins Clubhouse will be a multi-use clubhouse facility containing property management offices, workout, and recreational facilities, along with study lounges. The clubhouse, which will be constructed with the Green initiative in mind, is within an approximately 30-acre development consisting of residential units, ample open/green space, a swimming pool, outdoor grounds, and native landscaping. In an effort to use as many Green Building Practices as we can, Landmark intends on using the following products and practices throughout the construction process. Some of the materials that we use to increase indoor air quality include formaldehyde free insulation, low VOC paints and sealants, and low VOC floor covering and carpet. Our plumbing fixtures that we use are low consumption. The interior trim that we use is either MDF or finger jointed material, both of which are recycled products. Energy efficient windows and doors, which in most cases surpass current energy requirements, are integrated into the structure. Light fixtures are either LED or Fluorescent, as to reduce energy consumption. HVAC systems that we are currently using meet, and in most cases exceed the current minimum SEER requirements. The plumbing fixtures that we use are low-flow, low consumption. Recycling and the use of recycled products and components are some of the Green exercises that are used in construction of the clubhouse. This is achieved by conscientious waste disposal techniques, as well as the use of materials containing recycled content such as drywall, cultured stone, MDF and finger jointed trim. Landmark also makes every attempt to source and procure materials from vendors that are local and within close proximity of the jobsite in such a way as to reduce the impact of shipping and transportation. Landmark Cottage Construction, LLC is proud to build with an environmental purpose and provide a state of the art facility for the surrounding Ft. Collins community. Respectfully,
