Colorado 80203 (303)866-3581 February 1, 1988 JERIS A. DANIELSON State Engineer REC.EIVEO FE8 1 0 M8 RE: WARREN LAKE DAM W. Div. 1, DAMID: 030330 The plans which you have proposed for Harbor Walk Estates Phase II development have been reviewed for impact to the safety of Warren Lake Reservoir Dam. There appears to be no adverse impact to the dam. The proposed construction may actually improve the safety of the embankment; therefore, this office approves of the modification. The approval of your plans to place a fill upstream of the existing dam for a housing platform is based upon the following conditions: 1. The volume of fill that displaces present flood storage capacity does not exceed more than about one-half acre foot. 2. The reservoir company will need to have access for emergency repair of the dam. 3. The platform must be compacted to 95% standard proctor density, except for backfill of utility lines which must be reasonably compacted with hand equipment. The material must not be highly organic and must not be lenses of different suitable soils. A relatively homogeneous blended soil with 5% or more fines is desired. The embankment may be more pervious toward the upstream face to accommodate the developer's plans for a stable upstream face. 4. Main utility lines will parallel the existing crest and will not constitute a breach of the existing dam. The storm water drain will be perpendicular to the present crest, installed at about the reservoir high water line, but does not completely penetrate the embankment, and, therefore, does not appear to pose a threat to the existing structure. 5. You must provide a copy of the final plans to the state for information and filing and to the owner of the dam for possible future use to develop "AS -BUILT" drawings of the dam.

Lincoln Loveland, Colorado 80538 Re: Harbor Walk Estates, Phase 11 - Haul Routes Dear Mr. Simpson: The intent of this letter is to notify you that the following haul routes used by Connell for the transportation of fill material to the Harbor Walk Estates Phase 11 Development have been visually inspected by the City and appear to be in good repair. Lemay Avenue from Brittany Drive north to Harmony Road LeMay Avenue north to Harbor Walk Drive Harmony Road from Lemay Avenue east to Timberline Road Timberline Road north from Harmony Road to Horsetooth Road Horsetooth Road west to Leray Avenue Lemay Avenue south to Harbor Walk Drive Harbor Walk Drive west to Harbor Walk Lane Please be informed that the acceptance of these streets as of this date does not relieve the Development of its obligation to abide by the conditions of the Development Agreement should additional fill material be required as part of this project.

Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6605 Taranto, Stanton, & Tagge February 1, 1988 Page 2 Your company must insure that the embankment is constructed according to the state requirements and that there are no significant deviations from the plans that affect dam safety. Also, you must provide adequate construction documentation to the State Engineer's Office to substantiate proper construction. The state will discontinue formal inspection of the portion of the existing dam adjacent to the new housing platform. The State Engineer in no way assumes any liability for the housing platform or the structures built in connection with the development of this land. Sincerely, Hal D. Simpson, P.E.

Project No. 10-554-004 City of Fort Collins Office of Development Services, Planning Department 300 LaPorte Avenue Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 Attn: Linda Ripley Project Planner Dear Linda: This letter is being written to request approval for a variance from the City of Fort Collins Street Design Standards. The project is "Harbor Walk Estates Phase II, P.U.D," and the Gamer is United Bank. The variance is requested for the first street curve on Harbor Walk Lane at Harbor Walk Drive. A reduction of the centerline radius from the street standard of 240 feet (Table 2, page T-2), to 165 feet is desired. The standard cannot: be net because the proposed Harbor Walk Lane will not fit well in the existing platted R.O.W.. Taranto, Stanton & Tagge feels that no safety problems are caused by this centerline radius reduction because the curve is at an intersection where vehicle speeds are greatly reduced. Please contact me if you have any questions or if we can provide further information. Respectfully submitted,,p' Xl:i�..N... V�• S AN .e-� v T. Michael Carver, P. TARANTO, STANTON & TASM", ^.

College Avenue Fort Collins, CO 80521 Dear Walt: Back in October, I sent you four copies of a development agreement for the Harbor Walk Estates Phase 11 development. The agreements were transmitted for your processing to get signatures. You then indicated your objection to some of the language, particularly related to requirements for the fill material hauling operations. Therefore, I did not receive the signed agreements back from you. Gary Diede, Director of Engineering, several other City staff members, and I have reviewed your concerns. 1 am writing to let you know that our discussions have revealed more concerns that we have regarding the haul operations and the process of excavating fill material from Warren Lake. These concerns need to be covered in the development agreement. The development agreement that I sent you in October and which was unacceptable to you, is, for the foregoing reasons, inadequate in addressing the City's needs as well. I will prepare new language and send you copies of a new version of the development agreement for your review and signatures.

I am also forwarding to you a copy of pages 1 and 2 of the earlier Development Agreement with Warren Properties, Inc. I have also reviewed your "new" standard form development agreement and I think the agreement is fine as written if you will insert the new agreed upon language on excavation of fill material on Warren Lake. Further, you need to add to provision 1(c), the same language as in the prior agreement, that is: by adding the language 11except on Lots 9 through 16 where each structure requires a residential fire sprinkler system."

Fill Material Hauling Operations. (1) Prior to beginning any construction or importation of fill material to the development site, the Developer shall submit a haul plan to the City for approval. Said haul plan shall include the following items: *Proposed route *Schedule for the haul *Number of trucks to be used *Load characteristics of all trucks The City shall not have the right to disapprove a hauling plan unless such plan violates applicable City of Fort Collins ordinances, provided that the plan provides that every other loaded hauling truck emanating from South of Harmony Road shall use an alternate route other than from Harmony North on South Lemay Avenue to the development site. The empty trucks shall be allowed to use South Lemay Avenue to return to Harmony Road and points south. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall have the right to require Developer to use alternative hauling routes for the filled loads._ In such event, the city shall promptly notify Seller of the alternate route and the City shall promptly (within 30 days after receipt of the Developer's documentation of extra cost incurred by the alternate route) pay to Developer all extra costs incurred by the Developer attributable to the use of the alternate route. Developer shall submit reasonable and verifiable written documentation to the City of the extra costs incurred by Developer for the use of the alternate route. The fill hauling operation shall follow the approved haul plan. The Developer shall be responsible for any damage caused by the hauling operation to Harbor walk Drive and Harbor Walk Lane. An inspection of the street conditions for Harbor Walk Drive and Harbor walk Lane shall be made by the City prior to beginning and at completion of the hauling operation to determine the amount of damage, if any. The City must approve the Developer's proposed method for repairs needed to return the local streets to the conditions existing at the beginning of Developer's hauling. Developer shall repair, to City standards, any damage caused by its operations to Harbor Walk Drive and Harbor Walk Lane so as to restore Harbor walk Drive and APR 12 '90 10:10' 303 484 2620 PAGE.003 04/12/90 09:24 2303 484 2620 WOOD, HERZOG, ETAL a Harbor Walk Lane to their condition as it existed prior to the Developers commencement of hauling of fill material. F. Excavation of Fill Material from Warren Lake The Developer shall take precautions to assure that any excavation of fill material for this development at the south end of Warren Lake is performed in a way that does not increase seepage from the lake, if such seepage would detrimentally affect the function of the underdrain system in Lemay Avenue adjacent to Warren Lake. The soils report of Empire Laboratories, Inc., dated June 15, 1988 and supplemented by Addendum dated February 5, 1990, for the development addresses the seepage issue and specifies what must be done to prevent an increase in seepage. All construction shall follow the procedures described in the Empire Laboratories, inc. report. Prior to the issuance of any building permit the Developer shall provide certification from a licensed professional engineer, with expertise in soils, that the procedures specified in the Empire Laboratories, Inc. soils report were followed and completed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, nothing set forth in this Agreement shall imply or create a general or specific legal duty from the Developer to the City to be responsible for the results Or consequences of any increase in seepage from Warren Lake unless (a) the activities of the Developer are the proximate cause of such increased seepage and (b) the seepage occurs within two years from the date of substantial completion of excavation and fill of each phase of excavation and fill activity. This Agreement is not intended to nor does it create any right or duties to any third parties on the part of the Developer or the city and all legal responsibility is expressly limited to this agreement between the City and the Developer as set forth herein. This paragraph shall only be effective if the Developer elects to utilize existing Warren Lake materials for the fill, furthermore, if Developer utilizes „imported" fill, 1 this entire paragraph (F) shall be null and void and of no effect.

D Suite 100 Fort Collins, CO 805225 ATTENTION: Mike Sollenberger Dear Mike: RE: Harbor Walk Estates PH II I am writing this memo in regards to the imported fill for the above mentioned project. The main haul route for this project will be down South Lemay across Harmony Road continuing North on South Lemay to the project. Our alternate route will be the same except the trucks will go East on Harmony to Timberline, then North to Horsetooth, Vest on Horsetooth to South Lemay, South on Lemay to the project. All empty trucks will exit the project on Lemay and go South. We will be using between seven to ten trucks on this project. Then all will be able to haul 80,000 Lb. loads legal. We hope to start on this project after the IOth of October and finish in 10 working days. After hauling, Lemay Avenue (just outside the project) will be broomed and cleaned.
