Home My WebLink AboutGOLDEN MEADOWS BUSINESS PARK - Filed GC-GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE - 2004-08-05mtw ''.MC E7 August 8, 1978 Mr. Bob Smith Engineering Department City of Fort Collins P. 0. Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 Dear Bob: Ref: 855 This letter is in response to our discussions on Friday, August 4, 1978, concerning the Collindale South Detention Pond. I have done addi- tional analyses as to narrowing the existing spillway design, and I have also analyzed in detail the effects of the railroad embankment on the release from the pond. With respect to narrowing the spillway I analyzed narrower spillways and determined that a notch spillway with 6.5:1 side slopes would be ade- quate to pass the 100-year flood and maintain a water -surface elevation at 4960. The peak outflow from this spillway and outlet structure would be 270 cfs. Enclosed is the revised design hydrograph and copy of the revised plans. The reason for the narrowing to a V-notch is that the outlet channel previously acted as the control and now the spillway crest is the control. I have also analyzed the effects of the railroad embankment at greater detail than I had originally and determined that with the revised spillway the railroad would backwater to an elevation of 4960.5. Therefore, I am recommending that the safe building limits for the development be estab- lished above 4960.5. I hope this answers your questions concerning the detention pond design. If you have any further questions, please let me know. Sincerely yours, RESOURCE CONSULTANTS, INC. David M. Frick, PE DMF:js Enc. cc Ed Zdenek (w/enc.) Bill Tiley (w/enc.) ., x r ..

Howard Street Skokie, Illinois 60077 RE: Golden Meadows Business Park, Fort Collins, Colorado worm Drainage Easement Dedication Dear Mike: At long last I am sending you the easement dedication which we discussed by phone on June 28, 1989. The purpose of this easement dedication is to clarify the type of easement rather than to dedicate an entirely new easement. When the Golden Meadows Business Park was platted this easement was dedicated as a utility ease- ment, serving drainage purposes as well as utility installations. Since that time we have changed our policy regarding the dedication of easements, and we now require that if an easement is to be used for drainage purposes it must specifically be dedicated as a drainage easement. When the adjacent property recently came in for development, I requested that the utility easement be changed to a 'drainage and utility' easement. Since half of the easement lies on Grainger property, we need your signa- ture on the Easement dedication document. Attached for your review is the easement dedication. Please sign and notarize and return to me at your earliest convenience. If you have any questions or concerns please contact me at (303)221-6589. Thank you for, your cooperation in getting this matter resolved. Sincerely, 161� Susan L. Duba Hayes, P.E. Civil Engineer II Attachments cc: Bob Scheske, W.W.

Some additional work may be required at these points. I sincerely appreciate your attitude concerning the problems we have had on this job and your willingness to correct the pipeline to our standards.

Box 580 Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 Re: wlett Packard Manufacturing Facility Golden Meadows Business ParR__ Dear Maury, Enclosed are two copies of revised curb and gutter and drainage plan for the cul-de-sac at Golden Meadows. I have sent a copy of this drawing and spoken directly to Bill Tiley, the owner, regarding the drainage easement statement which you requested. He indicated he would speak with his attorney who would contact you shortly. I would appreciate it if you could review the amended drawings and release the contractor to complete the work on the cul-de-sac at the earliest possible date in as much as completion of this work is essential to closing the construction loan. Please contact me if you have any questions or comments which would delay your approval.

The manhole in the center island should be raised. I assume that to raise the top of the cover to a minimum of 4" above the highest point the adjacent curbs to be adequate. 2. The driveway (detail 3/AC) should have a 4' warped sidewalk and curb transition per city of Fort Collins standards rather than a curb radius return. Per our conversation, and with the understanding that these changes must also be made, I will instruct the contractor to proceed with the work based on the revised cul-de-sac drawing. I also understand that you have spoken with Art March who is preparing a drainage agreement to your satisfiaction. Therefore, unless you have further comments we will proceed with the work and hope that only a routine review of the completed work will be necessary. Thank you for your prompt resolution of this problem.
