Exhibit Guidelines and Standards
Section 5. Planting Guidelines.
5.1. Weather, Climate, Soils. Planting guidelines suggest design considerations for successful
implementation of streetscape styles. Due to severe climate conditions in Fort Collins,
consideration of long term maintenance is an important element of the initial design of any
streetscape. Fort Collins is located in a transitional zone between the High Plains and the
Great American Desert. Precipitation is limited to 15 inches per year on average, with extreme
temperatures in the 90's in the summer and as low as -20 in the winter. As much as one third
of the rain comes in April and May as heavy downpours. Heavy snows in spring and fall may
break tree limbs, coming when trees are in leaf. Mild spring and fall weather is broken by
sudden frosts. Soil is naturally alkaline and production of organic matter and humus is low.
Soils are often heavy clay.
5.2. General Planting Considerations. These severe conditions require careful design and
selection of vegetation. Adaptable plants that have proven hardy are recommended wherever
possible. Xeriscape methods are advisable, such as grouping plants with similar water
demands together and watering higher demand plants on a different sprinkler schedule while
drought -tolerant plants may be watered by rain or bubbler irrigation. Soil preparation is a
critical step in all xeriscape. General planting considerations include the following:
5.2.1. Coordinated tree planting sets a rhythm and pattern for the street. By alternating
tree types, a sense of enclosure can be achieved while slower growing trees are
established.
5.2.2. Gardens of perennials and annuals should be restricted to high priority areas for
maintenance and safety reasons.
5.3. Contact the City. The City Parks Division shall be contacted before work in any City
maintained streetscape is commenced.
Section 6. Planting Standards.
6.1. Projects Governed by City Planting Standards.
6.1.1. Public projects such as parks, streets, medians, substations, treatment plants, plazas
and public buildings shall provide for tree planting as a part of the development
process. The landscape plan for such projects shall be approved by the City and
must adhere to the City Forestry Standards and Specifications.
6.1.2. Private projects shall provide for street tree planting as part of the development
process. Street trees shall be located on the public right-of-way and must adhere to
the design objectives, spacing, location, and other requirements of the City Forestry
Standards and Specifications.
6.2. Specific Standards.
6.2.1. Existing healthy street trees shall be preserved wherever possible. If a tree is
removed, mitigation trees shall be provided of at least equal value as that of the
removed tree.
6.2.2. New street trees that are part of a new development project shall be at least two (2)
inch caliper on arterial and collector streets and one and a quarter (1.25) inch caliper
on residential local streets. There is not a minimum tree size requirement for infill
plantings.
6.2.3. Except in residential areas, automatic irrigation shall be provided to all trees, shrubs,
and turf per City standards.
6.2.4. A continuous gentle two percent (2%) slope from curb to sidewalk shall be used to
achieve a carpet of turf within the parkway.
6.3. Size, Type, and Distribution of Tree Species.
6.3.1. Public tree planting can be by the balled and burlapped, tree spade, or container
method. Bare root plantings are not permitted without written permission of the City
Forester.
6.3.2. No single species shall make up more than 15% of the total City tree population.
The following requirements are for tree species at any one site:
Number of Trees at Site
Maximum % of any 1 Species at Site
10 to 19
50
20 to 39
33
40 to 59
25
60 or more
15
6.3.3. The plant palette in the appendix of this document constitutes the official tree species
for Fort Collins. No species other than those included in this list shall be planted as
street trees without written permission of the City Forester. City does reserve the right
to select trees not on the bid list.
6.4. Soil Preparation Requirements.
6.4.1. All utilities shall be located prior to trenching and shall be protected from damage.
Locate all utilities and protect from damage. Required calls shall include, but are not
limited to the following:
City Parks Division, for Irrigation, pipe, and wire locates ............................ 221-6660

Public Service
US West Communication
AT&T Cable Services
6.5. Placement of Trees in Parkway.
6.5.1. At the intersection of roadways or vehicular access points, no plant material with a
mature height greater than two and a half (2.5) feet shall be planted within a sight
triangle measuring 30 feet along the boundary of each of the intersecting roadways,
measured from the point of intersecting curblines, except where engineering
standards indicate otherwise.
6.5.2. No tree planting is permitted where the distance between a curb and a detached
sidewalk is less than four (4) feet.
6.5.3. Trees must be planted in the center of the planting strip measured from the front of
the sidewalk and back of the curb.
6.5.4. Where the sidewalk is attached to the curb as a continuous element (such as near
turn lanes), the street tree planting must be at least three (3) feet and no more than
seven (7) feet in back of the walk. The tree must be located on the public
right-of-way.
6.5.5. No street tree shall be planted closer to the street than two and a half (2.5) feet from
the face of the curb.
6.5.6. Residential streets, which may use the option of rollover rather than vertical curbs,
must center the tree within the landscaping area of the parkway rather than from the
flowline to the edge of the sidewalk.
6.5.7. Larger maturing trees should be placed 40 feet apart and smaller maturing trees
(such as in the Variety/Combination style) may be placed 20 feet apart. The City
Forester may require wider spacings if it is necessary for development of the tree or
for safe use of the street or sidewalk. When space is limited or to achieve certain
design effect, closer spacings may be considered.
6.5.8. No tree shall be planted closer than eight (8) feet from any driveway or alley nor shall
a tree be planted in such a manner than its eventual growth cannot be reasonably
controlled so as to avert interference with or obstruction to any improvements
installed for public benefit.
6.5.9. Tree plantings made in a sidewalk must have a minimum of 16 square feet cutout
area.
6.6. Tree inspection and Warranty
City Forestry department must inspect trees prior to planting and must
accept the trees after planting. Contractor must schedule this with the
Forestry Department. The warranty for all trees is for two full growing
seasons after planting acceptance.
Section 7. Irrigation Standards.
7.1. General.
7.1.1. irrigation design shall be done by a certified irrigation designer or someone approved
by the City Parks Division.
7.1.2. Irrigation system design and installation shall be monitored, inspected, and approved
by the City Parks Division. Irrigation systems shall be installed and maintained so that
no heads spray onto any streets in such a way that they spray passing motorists or
pedestrians. Heads should be adjusted wherever possible so that they do not
overspray sidewalks.
7.1.3. The irrigation system must comply with the Uniform Plumbing Code and with the City
of Fort Collins Electrical Code.
7.1.4. Any deviation in taps from the approved construction plans must be approved by City
of Fort Collins Utilities prior to installation. Any water service line shall be coordinated

7.1.5. Any deviation in layout of the irrigation system from the approved construction plans
must be reviewed and approved by the City Parks Division prior to installation.
7.1.6. The irrigation system must be designed to provide full coverage and matched
precipitation rates. Lateral piping shall be sized based on flow demands (gpm's);
velocities shall not exceed five and a half (5.5) feet per second. Principles of
xeriscape shall be utilized in the design of the irrigation system. Some design
considerations will include: shrub and perennial beds are to be zoned separately from
turf areas; sloped areas to have separate zoning for heads at the higher elevations
from those at the lower elevation and areas with different exposures are to be zoned
separately. Check valves -in -head are to be used for all areas adjacent to walkways
