RE: ECC College Avenue LLC, MA 150015, Round Number 1 Comment Response Letter
Dear Mr. Beals:
In response to your Minor Amendment submittal comments provided on April 2, 2015, please see our
responses listed below:
Planning Services (Ryan Mounce, 970-224-6186)
1. The "build -to" line requirements along College Avenue from Section3.5.3(C)(2)(c) call for buildings
to be located between 10-feet to 25-feet from the property line. The proposed building location is
likely to meet this standard given the potential for any right-of-way dedication.
• Response: Acknowledged. Dimensions to the ROW have been provided for
reference. These will likely change if and when additional ROW is dedicated for the
10' sidewalk along College Avenue.
2. The A 5-foot setback is needed between vehicle use areas and the side and rear lot lines per
Section 3.2.2(J).
• Response: Acknowledged. A 5' setback from property line to parking lot flowline has
been provided. Please see revised Site Plan.
The walkway on the south side of the building should be extended to the western property line.
Section 3.2.2(C)(6) requires on -site ped/bike circulation to allow for future connections nearby
destinations such as transit stations. This walkway will be an important component in linking the
Spring Creek Bus Rapid Transit station to this development and College Avenue.
• Response: An extension of the sidewalk to the western property line has been
provided. Please note that this sidewalk opens to an existing ingress/egress driveway
and does not connect to an existing sidewalk on the adjacent development.
4. The spacing of the street trees along College Avenue should be adjusted slightly to ensure they
are 30 to 40-feet apart. It appears the set of trees on either side of the walkway are currently about
20-feet apart. Street tree spacing requirements can be found in Section 3.2.1(D)(2).
• Response: Acknowledged. Placement of the trees is important for this site as only
building signage will be utilized. No monument signage is proposed. Trees have been
spaced accordingly. Please see revised Landscape Plan.

5. The brightness of the color used for the building awnings should be toned down or muted to
facilitate blending in with the color palette used in the nearby neighborhood in accordance with
Section 3.5.1(F).
• Response: The actual color of the awnings are a deeper red unlike those shown on
the printed plans. A fabric swatch of the color was provided at the meeting with Staff
on April 8, 2015.
6. The elevations indicate the potential for spandrel glass or a window films — please keep in mind
the windows may not have a reflectivity or opacity greater than 60% per Section 3.5.1(E)(3).
• Response: Spandrel Glass was deleted. All glass is to be tinted/clear less than 60%
opacity.
7. Please add an additional note or call -out on the elevations that conduits, vents and other
mechanical equipment attached to the building will be painted to match surrounding building
surfaces as identified in Section 3.5.1(1)(3).
• Response: Noted on new elevation exhibit.
8. Will there be a trash enclosure? Note 14 on the elevations sheet refers to an enclosure, but nothing
is shown on the site plan. The complete trash enclosure requirements can be found in Section 3.2.5
and require the enclosure to be constructed on a concrete pad and of durable materials such as
masonry that are compatible with the principle building.
• Response: The trash enclosure is now shown on the Site Plan and will match the
building.
Engineering Development Review (Tyler Siegmund, 970-221-6501,)
1. Per the adopted Mid -town plan, the sidewalk along College Avenue needs to be 1Oft wide along
the frontage of the property. The new sidewalk will need to be detached with a 5ft landscaped
parkway. Additional right-of-way will need to be dedicated to the back of the new sidewalk.
• Response: The sidewalk along College has been widened to 10 feet. Due to site
constraints with grading and matching the existing conditions adjacent to the Site, a
detached condition is not feasible.
2. Additional right-of-way will need to be dedicated as part of this project. Please contact me for the
process to dedicate right-of-way by separate document or visit
http://www.fcgov.com/engineering/devrev.php for additional information on the process.
• Response: Acknowledged.
3. Utility plans and a grading plan will be needed. With the addition of curb and gutter on the north
side of the site where is water draining? Will this building need any new utility service lines?
• Response: Acknowledged. Grading and Utility Plans are provided with the
Construction Documents. The existing site drains from southwest to northeast into
College Avenue. The proposed curb should not impact this drainage pattern and the
historical drainage patterns will remain.

4. A sidewalk connection needs to extend to the west property line for a future pedestrian connection
to the MAX bus line to the west. The proposed sidewalk along the south property line could be
extended to the west and terminate at the west property line, or a new sidewalk added along the
north property line that terminates at the west property line.
• Response: See comment 3 under Planning Service. Also, please note that a sidewalk
on the north side of the Site is not feasible as we cannot meet the required accessible
route slopes in this area.
5. All access along S. College Ave is governed by Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT)
and will need to be reviewed and approved through CDOT. Please coordinate the approval and
removal of the two exiting driveway cuts along the frontage of the property with CDOT. New access
control permits will likely be required. Please contact Gloria with CDOT for requirements:
