Krempel, P.E., Director of Public Works & Water Utilities RE . Arterial Improvements Associated With Jail Site The attached memo from Mike Herzig outlines the scope of the Timberline and Prospect intersection project as originally conceived. Under present policies, a site such as selected for the jail would not participate in any way in funding the intersection construction except through street oversizing fees. This we believe however, is a case where the City is in a position to negotiate with the County and should do so, particularly when consider- ing the construction of Timberline north of Prospect to Mulberry. An item that has not been conveyed in either of my memos is the cost of electrical service to the jail site. REK%sl CITY OF FORT COLLINS P.O.

BRI E F I N G MEMORANDUM DATE: May 27, 1981 TO : Elery Wilmarth, Mayor FROM: Roger E. Krempel, P.E., Director of Public Works & Water Utilities RE County Jail Site The Traffic Office has analyzed the impact of the County jail on the City street system in the vicinity of Prospect Road and Timberline Road, which are the nearest arterial streets to the jail site. The analysis indicates that there will be fourteen County employees which operate the jail facility. In addition, County personnel estimate that prisoners will be transported between the jail facility and the Court- house five times each day. This impact is very minimal upon the City street system. In fact, for the size of the jail site the impact is much less than impacts from normal commercial or industrial uses. The City staff has previously prepared a schedule of costs and fees associated with the construction of the jail facility. Included in this schedule is a charge for street oversizing of over $33,000. This charge is a fair share of street oversizing expense for the improvement of the arterial streets in the vicinity of the jail site, and no other charges would be appropriate in connection with the construction of the jail. The City and the County have mutual concerns for the improvement of both Prospect Road and Timberline Road in this part of the metropolitan area which are not directly tied to the construction of the jail facility. The City is planning for the future improvement of both streets to meet projected metropolitan traffic needs. A large portion of both Prospect and Timberline lie outside the Fort Collins city limits. The City has proposed that the road and bridge mil levy be used to jointly finance the improvement of these major roadways.

This was felt, by Council, to be necessary since the location of the County Jail near this Intersection will cause considerable traffic increase and will require these improvements ahead of other anticipated development. The City has contracted with Centennial Engineering to design this inter- section and the bridges which are an integral and controlling aspect of the design. Therefore, we have been unable to arrive at a cost to assess the County until we had a preliminary cost for this work. Centennial supplied their design report last week and we are now able to submit a suggested assessment. The Southeast Quadrant of the Intersection contains five industrial and/or ccnTr�ercial city subdivisions north of the Colorado and Southern Railway tracks. These contain 152.330 acres of which the County Jail site comprises 14.444 acres, or 9.4820/o of the area. We feel the County should not be assessed any more than a normal developer which would be the cost of one-half a local street including curb, gutter and concrete sidewalk four feet wide. For the full length of the arterial streets (Prospect and Timberline). The Centennial Report contains a cost estimate (Table I) which is the basis of the following costs which we believe to be an accurate estimate of the developers' costs associated with construction of the east side of Timberline Road from Prospect: South to the C & S Railway, and for the south side of Prospect Road from Timberline Road East to the north quarter corner of Section 20 (at Sharp Point Drive). (Table I includes some items which do not apply (such as the R.R. Crossings) to the Southeast Quadrant and excludes Prospect Road East of Spring Creek and the Prospect Road Bridge over Spring Creek. Therefore, we have estimated costs for the missing items and have deleted items which do not -apply) . / h .77 #. a"`-."'"�`.�`,'�",'..'�".""�`�"...."'"'�..''

Larimer Countv Jail Site - Subdivision Agreement Council directed staff to compute some equitable charge to Larimer County for constructing the Timberline Road -Prospect Road intersection and Spring Creek Chanrr,l improvements and bridges, This was felt by Council, to be necessary since the locr.tion of the County Jail near .his intersectiof. will cause considerable traffic increase and will require Lhese improvements ahead of other anticipated development. The City has contracted with Centennial Engineering to design this intersec- tion and the bridges which are an integral and controlling aspect of the design.

The Southeast Quadrant of the intersection contains five industrial and/or commercial city subdivisions north of the Colorado and Southern Railway tracks. These contain 152.330 acres of which the County Jail site comprises 14.444 acres, or 9.482% of the area. The County probably should not be assessed any more than a normal developer which would be the cost of one-half a local street including curb, gutter and concrete sidewalk four feet wide; for the full length of the arterial streets (Prospect and Timberline). The Centennial report contains a cost estimate (Table I) which is the basis of the following computation which we believe to be an accurate estimate of -the developers' costs associated with construction of the east side of Timberline Road from Prospect south to the C & S Railway, and for the south side of Prospect Road from Timberline Road east to the north quarter corner of Section 20 (at Sharp Point Drive). (Table I includes some items which do not apply (such as the R.R. crossings) to the Southeast Quadrant and excludes Prospect Road east of Spring Creek and the Prospect Road bridge over Spring Creek. Therefore, we have estimated costs for the missing items and have deleted items which do not apply. * 4" A.C. @ $6.00 12" Base @ $5.04 (420/in/SF) ** Timberline Bridge = 88' x 100' = $580,000.00 Prospect Bridge = 70/88 x 580,000 = $461,363.64 This policy of having the County participate in the cost of arterial streets which do not abutt their property is not in accordance with present City policy and may set a precedent which would have future repercussions even though we would not charge them the current oversizing fee if we charged the above apportioned cost. If we were to apply the current street oversizing fee to the Jail Site, we would .collect $39,721.00 (14.444 a.c. x $2,750/a.c. for industrial). The above calculations are my interpretation of the verbal agreements which have been reached by others in the •politics of this subdivision. Please advise me of any discrepancies before I take them to Wayne Lawler.

Attached are two site plans showing the extent of the new additions to lie existing facility which are necessitating the casement vacation. fhe addition consists of a one story Intake and Administrative addition on the northwest corner of the facility, it four story Intake and Women's Housing TIM on the southwest comer of the facility, a two story Medium Security Housing Unit (MSO)on the south west comer of the facility, and it one story Kitchen and Maintenance addition on the south side of the facility. 'fhe portions of the addition which affect the casement are the one story Kitchen and Maintenance addition and the two story MST 1. 'fhe Kitchen and Maintenance addition projects into the easement approximately 38', requiring the relocation of gas, electric, and water line services to The building. The casement vacation at tlhis location is necessvy for the kitchen and maintenance areas to expand to accommodate the increased number of inmates. Adequate separation between buildings must be maintained, therefore the only direction t hat die addition can occur is to Life south. 'I lie MST J contains a two story exercise yard which extends into the easement approximately four feet. The easement vacation at the MST.I is required because the only room available on the site for this size of building is to die south of the existing building. Due to the required number of medium security cells, and the need for an exercise large enough to accommodate the new inmates, the exercise yard extends into the casement. A new site survey showing existing utilities is currently being undertaken, however, previous survey information indicates that the MST addition will not impact any of the existing utilities. Please review the attached site plans. Drawing Al.1 is an overall site plan, showing The entire site plan including the existing facility and all additions. Drawing AT 2 is an enlarged utility drawing showing the casement in greater detail. Please call with any questions. Sincerely, Bob Brashears Associate Principal MEMORANDUM TO: 1,JA-TE->Z/Vq5-r-& Lt'W re�2 (`l-4c) 12 u LD -6 � FROM: Sheri Wamhoff, Development Review Engineer DATE: August 15, 1997 RE: REQUEST TO VACATE TWO PORTIONS OF UTILITY EASEMENTS Attached for your review and comment is a blue line showing Larimer County Detention Facility, located south of Midpoint Drive near the intersection of Prospect Road and Timberline Road. Extending west into the site, two portions of utility easement on the `Boundary and Topographic Survey for Larimer County, Colorado Jail Site Plat' are proposed for vacation. The westerly vacation is necessary due to the kitchen/maintenance addition which would extend south into the easement, and the easterly vacation is necessary due to the addition of a medium security housing unit. Please sign and return any comments to Sheri Wamhoff in the Development Review Center by September 3, 1997- If we do not hear from you by this date, we will assume you have no objections to the proposed vacations. Please call Sheri at 221-6750 if you have any questions. Thank you.

Date: 5/8/98 4:01 PM Subject: Larimer county Jail - Development agreement The larimer County Jail Project Is a development agreement needed for this project? I had previously talked briefly to Paul Eckman and Dave Spencer (of the County) and the consensus was if we didn't need to lets not do it The question has now been raised again by the architect. So we now need a definite answer on this. Questions: 1) Does the county have to comply with our Code requirements? If not - Are they going to be willing then to sign a document saying they are going to do these things. 2) Is there specific reasons why we need one for stormwater or engineering purposes? As for Engineering - The only reason engineering would need an agreement (that I know of) is to reimburse the county for .5 foot of the walk being built. An agreement is needed for this to occur, but it does not have to be a development agreement. I had mentioned this to Dave Spencer of the county after the commissioners hearing and he said for the amount it was going to be he didn't know if it was worth it doing an agreement. In regards to this I also don't know if the City has made other arrangements/ agreements with the County in which the county should not be getting reimbursed. I had heard rumor that the county might be going to give the City money for the sidewalk that was not going to built that we had wanted. ?? 3) Do we do agreements with the County? And politically is this what we want to do? If any of you can answer these questions I would appreciate some help on this thanks. Sheri CC: Dave Stringer
