The approval block should be on all sheets. Number: I 1 Created: 1 1 /4/2003 [1 1,4'031 The grading and erosion control plan sets are not readable, please revise. Because of the information presented. it is difficult to determine if the permissive amount of sheet flow drainage for a driveway across a sidewalk is bcim- exceeded. Please ensure that the maximum amount of parking lot area crossing over a public walk does not exceed 750 square feet. Number: 40 Created: 1 1 /7/2003 [ 1 1 /7/03 1 Show street patching for the proposed street cuts onto public right-of-way. Please note that due to the close distance between street cuts on Wheaton, a mill and inlay may instead be required for the entire length between street cuts. The new driveways will require a street patch that is the entire �s idth of the existing hikelane(s). Add a note referencing these street cuts indicating the following: "Limits of street repair are approximate. Final limits to be determined in the field by the City Engineering Inspector at the time the cuts are made." Number: 41 Created: 11 /7/2003 [11/7/03] Please replace details on the details sheet with City standard details as redlined (such as access ramps, driveways, etc.) Number: 42 Created: I 1 /7/2003 [l I /7/03] Please revise the ramp proposed at the Hamiony,Wheaton intersection to direct peds across Wheaton (not lead to the comer). Because this is along CDOT right-of-way, the ramp will need to be constructed to CDOT standards. Please ensure CDOT's details (with truncated domes) are included. Number 43 Created: 1 1 /7/2003 [11/7/03] The sidewalk along Harmony should remain detached approaching the intersection because there isn't curb and gutter along this section of Harmony. Topic: General Number: 9 Created: 11/4, 2003 [1 1/4/03 1 The existing bricks along Wheaton which act as a sidewalk are not considered an approved sidewalk system and should be removed and replaced in accordance with City standards. Number: 15 Created: 1 1 /4/2003 [1 114/03] Please separate the site and landscape plans from the construction drawing set (and not name them C 2 and C-6 respectively). These are items that will be tiled separate from the construction drawing set. The construction drawing set should have all remaining sheets assembled together within the plan set (ensure that the grading plan sheet included within the drainage report is also included in the construction drawing set). The plat, while also filed separately, should also be included in the construction drawing set as a sheet for reference. placed immediately after the cover sheet. '['he cover sheet index should note that the second sheet in the plan set is a plat for reference. Page 3 Number: 16 Created: 11/4/2003 [ 11/4/031 There appears to be some discrepancy as to where the modular block pavement is to be installed. Sheet C-2 shows that this will only be used for the internal parking lot areas while Sheet C- 9 shows based upon the note on the lower right-hand corner of the page that the entire area noted as "P" will used this pavement, which includes the drive aisles noted as concrete on C-2. Please clanfy. Number: 21 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/03] Per LCUAS'S standard 19-6, the two parking stalls along the north side of the drive aisles that intersects with Wheaton Drive need to be eliminated, a 50' setback from the flowline of Wheaton Drive (a collector) is required.

Number: 25 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/031 It appears that PFA needs the drive aisle connecting the two driveways to be dedicated as an emergency access easement. Please indicate such dedication on the plat. Number: 26 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/03] The plans conflict with regards to the type of driveway proposed out to Oakridge Drive. Number: 27 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/031 The new access ramp at the southeast comer of Harmony Road and Wheaton Drive should be constructed as a divectional ramp, not a comer ramp. Topic: Plat Number: 22 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/03] The plat needs to dedicate additional right-of-way for Harmony Road and additional access and landscape easement behind the right-of-way as reflected on the 33rd filing. 9' of utility easement behind the right-of-way on Oakridge Drive is also required to be dedicated. The site plan appears to dimension these items (but not call this out) correctly but it is not reflected on the plat. Number: 23 Created: 11/4/2003 [11/4/03] There appears to be a portion of sidewalk along Oakridge Drive approaching Wheaton that is on private property. It would make sense to dedicate this as right-of-way to provide a continuous property line along Oakridge. Number: 47 Created: 11/7/2003 [1 1/7/031 Issue #22 will need to be investigated further internally in the City with regards to the right-of-way dedication on Harmony as it appears the Spring Canyon Lateral may complicate such a right-of-way dedication.

Are the proposed Pervious Paver Blocks the best parking space solution in this area? 4. There are several parking spaces that do not meet the setback requirements from the street. 5. The subdivision plat needs to dedicate street right-of-way, easements, emergency access easement, public access easement, and landscape S access easement along Harmony Road. Stormwater: This development plan is not providing the required storm water detention. This site needs 5 times as much as is shown. This is a major issue.

Box 580 Fort Collins, Co 80522-0580 Re: Oakridge Business Park 36`h Filiing Holiday Inn Express and Suites Fort Collins, Colorado LJA Project No. 03030 Dear Mr. Olt, Regarding the staff review comments for the proposed Holiday Inn Express, dated 1 1/18/03, we offer the following responses. We are resubmitting with intention to have a public hearing in January. We understand there will likely be more revisions requested, we feel that all the major issues have been resolN ed and that these plans are at least 50% complete. Issues: Department: Current Planning Topic: Building Plan 51 Comment has been noted. 59 Sheet A-4.1 has been revised and coordinated with Site Plan. 61 Elevations of the Trash -Recycle enclosure and the Maintenance building have been included in this submittal. Refer to Sheet A-0. 62 The building overhang and drive under porte overlap, providing protection from weather as provided by the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites prototype. 63 Please indicate specific required revisions. 64 The North elevation on sheet A-4.1 has been revised to include the brick fagade as requested. Topic: Landscape Plan 52 An independent irrigation installer is to be contracted by the owner. A note on the landscape plan has been added to direct the irrigation contractor to the CFC Water Conservation Standards. 700 MAIN AVENUE (701) 293-1350 (No) FAX (701) 293-1353 POST OFFICE BOX 2464 (218) 233-3512 (MN) EMAIL' lia@lightowlerjohnson.com FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA 58108-2464 VVEBSITE: www. lightowlerjohnson.com 53 The paver blocks specified are not intended to allow vegetative growth. The pavers to be used are approximately 6 inches square with the corners cut. This allows an opening at every corner joint. An 18" sand cushion below the pavers is to be used. for filtration of stormwater and the only reason incorporated into this design. These blocks are used extensively in Canada, where freeze thaw conditions are severe. They are also used frequently in extreme desert conditions to allow infiltration into water starved soils. 54 The blue spruce along Harmony road have been removed from the plan. The potentially protrusive trees have been replaced with smaller plantings. 55 A sidewalk connection to the IHOP has been added. Landscape plantings have been revised accordingly. 56 The drawings have been revised per the red lined drawings. Blue spruce has been removed from the North side of the Property 58 The shrubbery has been revised for better display. Topic: Signage 57 The exterior signage has been removed from the building elevations on Sheet A-4 and A-4.1. Topic: Site Plan 60 The proximity of the West building wall to the Wheaton Drive right of way was located as shown due to several site limitations. 1. The existing landscape wall at the Northwest corner is only 2.5 feet across the property line. In order to maintain the integrity of the wall, and not add additional bearing pressure to the hotel footings, the distance between these strictures should be kept to a minimum. During construction, some shoring might be required for the existing wall. The proposed building location requires minimal amount of shoring. 2. Electrical service lines, Data service lines and telephone service lines will enter the building at this corner. Installation and maintenance of these lines would be more challenging if the building were further West. 3. The required water meter vault is to be located on the Hotel side of the property line. The dimension of the water meter vault is 8 feet. The distance between the meter vault and the building is 13 feet. Between the meter vault and the building, a proposed sewer lateral and drainage pipe are to be installed. Moving the building closer to the property line would require rerouting of these pipes. The site does not have the required slope to reroute the drainage pipe. 4. Should the building ever set on fire and collapse, at the proposed setback from Wheaton Drive, emergency personnel would have a safe distance to work between the crash zone and oncoming street traffic. 5. A. four-story building looming over the sidewalk might not maintain the exceptionally aesthetic neighborhood the City of Fort Collins is trying to create. From a guest's perspective, some separation from they're sleeping room to the street might be more desirable. 6. The required space for large landscape plantings would not be available if the building were closer to the street. 7. Some of the first floor guest -room windows would look directly at the back of the existing wall if the building were closer to the street. Topic: Utility Plan 49 a) The existing gas pedestal has been located on the utility plans. b) A 9-foot utility easement has been shown on the plat along the North side of Oakridge Drive. c) All trees have been located at a minimum distance of 4-feet away from gas lines. 50 a) The requested easements have been included on the Plat and site plan. b) Request for service shall be made by the owner. The requested conduits for service line entry into the building have been included on the electrical plans. Department: Engineering Topic: Construction Drawings 10 The required approval block has been added to every sheet. 1 1 The grading and E&S plans have been revised for clarity. The surface area of parking lot draining over the public walk has been minimized to 750 SF Max. 40 Street patching information has been specified on the plans as requested. 41 The details have been updated to CFC standards as requested. 42 The ramp detail has been updated to CDOT standards as requested. 43 The sidewalk along Harmony road has been revised to be detached as requested. Topic: General 9 The existing bricks along Wheaton Drive will be removed. A new detached sidewalk will be installed. A CDOT approved directional ramp will be aligned with the cramp across Wheaton Drive. A ramp will not be installed on the South side of Harmony Road. 15 The site and landscape plans have been removed from the construction drawing set. The sheet arrangement has been revised as requested. 16 The modular paver blocks are to be installed in the parking stall area only as shown on sheet C-2. The calculations on sheet C-9 reflect the impervious/pervious ratio corrections for stormwater calculations in Area F. According to the UDFCD, for areas covered with pervious pavers, the ratio of impervious to pervious surface is 50:50. 21 The plan has been modified to comply with the 50' setback from Wheaton Drive. 24 The title block has been revised as requested. 25 The requested Emergency Access Easement has been specified on the Plat and site plan. 26 The driveway onto Oakridge Drive shall be the same style used on Wheaton. Radial curves are NOT to be used as per CFC code. 27 The access ramp at the Harmony / Wheaton intersection shall be directional as requested. Topic: Plat 22 It appears that additional right of way cannot be dedicated due to the existing Irrigation. easement. The requested easements have been included in the revisions to the plat. 23 The property line bump out at the Wheaton and Oakridge intersection has been dedicated as street right of way. 47 Please inform us of the resolution regarding the Spring Canyon lateral. 48 The note on the plat refers to the Spring Canyon Lateral Easement and has been corrected accordingly. Department: Light & Power Topic: General 12 Please contact the owner for all required development fees. 13 A C-1 commercial form has been completed and included with this submittal. 14 The proposed transformer has been removed from the utility plans. A note has been added that the existing IHOP transformer will be replaced and shared between the two facilities. Department: Natural Resources Topic: General/Utility Plans 37 The notes regarding prairie dogs have been updated as requested. Topic: Utility Plans 38 LOD lines have been proposed on the plan revisions. Department: Police Topic: General 36 All exterior doors to the hotel will have windows. Employee access and deliveries shall be through public access locations. Department: Stormwater Utility Topic: Drainage 17 The required stormwater detention volume has been recalculated for full detention of the 100-year storm at the new rainfall intensities. The maximum ponding depth of 1-foot has not been exceeded. 18 The 40-hour extended extended detention criteria for water quality mitigation was used in the Sand filter basin design and located in the Water Quality Volume Calculation section of the Stormwater Management & Erosion and Sediment Control Report. 19 The prorated release rate of 1.2 CFS for this site is proposed to drain into coneyence element 34, which is a 24-inch RCP. This element directs water to the drainage channel, conveyance element 22. According to the Overall Master drainage plan, the current contributing [lows in element 34 is 6 CFS. At the minimum allowable slope of 0.5%, this pipe is capable of transporting up to 16 CFS. An additional 1.2 CFS should not exceed the capacity of the pipe. Calculations have been included in the Report. 44 Benchmark 99-44 has been corrected as requested. 45 The limits of the 100 year water surface and the outfall storm sewer have dedicated as a drainage easement on the plat and the site plan. 46 The outlet structure has been revised to the CFC standard. Topic: Erosion!SedimentControl 20 1 Please indicate the location of the current Notes so we may make the required corrections. 2 The Erosion Control Report is included at the back of the Stormwater Management & Erosion Control Report. Please indicate any specific changes required to this report. Department: Transportation Planning Topic: Transportation 28 The easement labels have been corrected as requested. 29 The burnp out of the property line has been removed and the area has been dedicated as right of way as requested. 30 The trees have been relocated as required. 31 The evergreens adjacent to the Sidewalk along Harmony have been replaced with less obtrusive species. 32 A not stating that "Two feet of clearance from the sidewalk to the existing hedge shall be :maintained." Has been added to the landscape plan and the demolition plan. 33 The shade trees along Harmony have been removed. The existing shade trees shall be preserved as extensively as possible. Department: Water Wastewater Topic: General 34 The internal water meter has been removed. The required meter vault has been located on the utility plan to the specified dimensions. Details for the meter vault have been added. 35 The utility plan has been revised to display 0.2 feet of drop through the manhole. The note to reshape the bench has been added as well. Topic: Utility Plans 39 A note stating "No landscape plantings shall be within 4-feet of any utility line." Has been added to the landscape plan and the utility plan. Department: Zoning Topic: Zoning I A total of six inverted u type bicycle parking stalls are included on the site plan. Three stalls are located by the North door which is adjacent to the bicycle path along Harmony Road. The other three are located as close to the front door as possible. 2 The building footprint as shown displays the outermost edge of the proposed structure. Dimensions have been added as requested. 3 The exterior signage has been removed from the building elevations on Sheet A-4 and A-4.1 as requested. 4 The building overhang and drive under porte overlap providing protection from weather as provided by the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites prototype. 5 Elevations for the maintenance building and trash -recycle enclosure have been added to the submittal.

Also, the 50% rule for features such as windows, entrances, arcades, arbors, awnings, treillage with vines details is not being represented. [11/18/03] The east and west elevations of the building appear to need more detailing to meet Section 3.5.3(D)(3) of the LUC. Number: 95 Created: 12/22/2003 [12122103] This building appears to be 52' to 57' in height. Section 3.5.1(G) of the LUC sets forth the. requirement that all buildings or structures in excess of 40' in height shall be subject to special review. The review criteria is set forth in Sections 3.5.1(G)(1)(a) Review Standards and (b) Submittal Requirements. Number:96 Created: 12/22/2003 [12122103] Please review Sections 3.5.3(D)(2), (3) & (4) of the LUC regarding building Character and Image, specifically Fagade Treatment (all sides), Facades, and Entrances. The building does not appear to satisfy, as a minimum, the building bay requirements and the street facing building articulation requirements. Number: 97 Created: 12/22/2003 [12122103] There is still signage shown on the West Building Elevation that must be removed from the Building Elevations plan. Page 1 r Topic: Landscaping Number: 52 Created: 11/13/2003 [12/19/03] Repeat Comment. [11/13/03] Laurie D'Audney of the City's Water Conservation Department is forwarding copies of the Water Conservation Standards for Landscapes COMMENT SHEET and Water Conservation Standards for LANDSCAPING and IRRIGATION SYSTEMS General Information. Number: 86 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Remove the UTILITY PLAN APPROVAL block from the Landscape Plan. No signature blocks are needed on this plan. Number: 87 Created: 12/19/2003 (12/19/03] The street trees along Wheaton Drive must be in the parkway strip between back of curb and the sidewalk, per Section 3.2.1(D)(2)(a) of the Land Use Code. Number: 88 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] There are a number of existing trees at the northwest corner of this site that have not been and are not shown on the Landscape Plan. * 3 Cottonwood - south of existing wall * 4 Austrian Pine - south of existing wall * 2 Chokecherry - north of existing wall A utility plan sheet shows these trees to be removed. After a site visit, City staff (City Forester and Planning) is of the opinion that several of these trees can be retained and protected. The western -most Austrian Pine should not be in jeopardy with the construction of the hotel building. One, and maybe two, of the Cottonwood may e able to be retained. Please see the colored drawing attached to this comment letter. The trees that may, be removed will have to be mitigated for, in the form of the following: * Cottonwood trees ...... 4 trees per each tree to be removed. * Austrian Pines ........... 3 trees per each tree to be removed. * Chokecherry trees ..... 2 trees per each tree to be removed. There are probably enough new trees on the Landscape Plan to provide mitigation; however, enough of them must be upsized to provide the required mitigation. Depending on how many trees are to be removed the number of mitigation trees ranges from 17 to 28. The mitigation standards are set forth in Section 3.2.1(F)(1) of the LUC and are as follows: * Canopy shade trees ..... minimum 3" caliper, balled and burlap * Ornamental trees ......... minimum 2.5" caliper, balled and burlap * Evergreen trees ........... minimum 8' height, balled and burlap Page 2 Number: 94 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] There were 4 Bur Oak trees shown along East Harmony Road, in the 80' setback area, on the previous Landscape Plan. They are in the Harmony Corridor Standards & Guidelines Oak Palette and it is unclear as to why they have been removed from the Landscape Plan. Number: 98 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] There are a number of shrubs on the Plant List that do not appear in either of the plant palettes in the Harmony Corridor Standards & Guidelines. See the red -lined Landscape Plan reviewed by Current Planning. Please understand that the plant materials to be used in the "setback zone" along Harmony Road and in the "setback areas" along local and collector streets are guidelines, not standards. These palettes are; however, strongly recommended. Topic: Signage Number: 57 Created: 11/17/2003 [12/22/03] There is still signage being shown on the West Building Elevation on Sheet A-4 of the Building Elevations. This signage must be removed from the plan. [11/17/03] Remove all signage from the Building Elevations. This development is subject to the City of Fort Collins Sign Code that is administered by the Zoning Department. The allowable signage will be determined outside of this Project Development Plan review. Topic: Site Plan Number: 83 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] The Expansion Joints (EJ) should not be shown on the Site Plan. This is a Site Plan, not a utility plan. The symbol just clutters the drawing. Number: 84 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Please see the attached example of the approval and signature blocks that are required on a .Site Plan. The UTILITY PLAN APPROVAL block should not be on the Site Plan. This is a Site Plan, not a utility plan. Number: 85 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] The Drainage Easement Boundary that was added to the Site Plan with this second round of review should be removed. This is a Site Plan, not a drainage plan. Page 3 Topic: Utility Plans Number: 81 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Len Hilderbrand of Xcel Energy offered the following comments: a. They have a 3" gas main located in the easements on the west and south edges of the site. b. Please contact Connie Woodward for installation of gas service. 5he can be contacted at(970)225-7843. Number: 82 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Dennis Greenwalt of Comcast Cable (TV) indicated that they would like to see the 80' Access and Landscape Easement along East Harmony Road changed to Access, Utility and Landscape Easement. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: Construction Drawings Number: 10 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] When noting previously that the approval block should be on all sheets, it wasn't intended to be on the site and landscape plans, as these are not typically part of a construction drawing set. Please have the approval block removed from the site and landscape plans. [11/4/03] Please revise the approval block on the construction set as shown on the redlines. The approval block should be on all sheets. Number: 41 Created: 11/7/2003 [12/16/03] This item wasn't addressed, however it is not required to be addressed until the submittal after a public hearing. At that time, please ensure that LCUA55 details 706 and 1602 are added (and replace previous details reflecting driveway approach and sidewalk installation). (In conjunction with a previous comment, ensure the CDOT detail for access ramps is also included). [11/7/03] Please replace details on the details sheet with City standard details as redlined (such as access ramps, driveways, etc.) Topic: General Number: 15 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] The construction drawing set does not have the plat reference sheets in it. This is fine for purposes of review, however the reference plat must be included in this construction set at the time of signature of the plans. [11/4/03] Please separate the site and landscape plans from the construction drawing set (and not name them C-2 and C-6 respectively). These are items that will be filed separate from the construction drawing set. The construction drawing set should have Page 4 all remaining sheets assembled together within the plan set (ensure that the grading plan sheet included within the drainage report is also included in the construction drawing set). The plat, while also filed separately, should also be included in the construction drawing set as a sheet for reference, placed immediately after the cover sheet. The cover sheet index should note that the second sheet in the plan set is a plat for reference. Number: 24 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] While this appears correctly on the title block of the construction plan set and the site plan, the title blocks on the top part of the sheets should also be revised to reflect this. [11/4/03] Please revise the title on all the documents to read "Oakridge Business Park 36th Filing, Holiday Inn Express". Number: 25 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] My apologies, the comment was not clear and misinterpreted. PFA requires the emergency access easement to connect the two driveways internal to the property (from Oakridge Drive north and then west out to Wheaton Drive). At the same time, the area now shown on the plat as dedicated as an emergency access easement should be changed to a public access easement to ensure a public access easement is maintained throughout the connection of the two driveways onto Oakridge Drive. [11/4/03] It appears that PFA needs the drive aisle connecting the two driveways to be dedicated as an emergency access easement. Please indicate such dedication on the plat. Number: 27 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] Please ensure that the CDOT construction detail for this ramp is provided. An image of this was emailed on 11/21, and can be resent if not received. [11/4/03] The new access ramp at the southeast corner of Harmony Road and Wheaton Drive should be constructed as a directional ramp, not a corner ramp. Number: 71 Created: 12/11/2003 [12/11/03] There is conflicting information between the site plan and utility plans. The site plan calls out curb openings in the middle parking island median which are not called out in the utility plan. Also, the survey overlay sheet on the utility plan sheet shows the existing brick along Wheaton Drive is to be removed, but on the site plan it states it is to remain (the brick needs to be removed). Page 5 Number: 72 Created: 12/12/2003 [12/12/03] The landscaping plan does not illustrate that trees are being removed which is only shown on the survey overlay sheet (C-3) of the utility plan set. The landscaping plan needs to illustrate vegetation to be removed, which may be of concern to Planning and/or Forestry. Number: 73 Created: 12/16/2003 (12/16/03] Please realign the sidewalk along Harmony Road to ensure that the sidewalk is separated two feet from the existing landscape wall structure. Number: 75 Created: 12/16/2003 [12/16/03] Prior to a hearing, a letter of intent from the property owner of the outlot at Harmony and Wheaton as well as the ditch company are required to verify that they do not object to the work within their property. Number: 76 Created: 12/16/2003 [12/16/03] At time of final compliance approval, the ditch company will need to be a signatory to the plat and off -site access easements are required from the outlot for the construction of the sidewalk. Topic: Landscaping Number: 80 Created: 12/17/2003 (12/17/03] Please situate the street trees along Wheaton Drive between the curb and sidewalk (parkway :strip), not behind the sidewalk. Topic: Plat Number: 22 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] After internal discussion it was concluded that, the developer is required to obtain the additional right-of-way along Harmony Road (as was done on the project east) which would presumably overlap a portion of the ditch. The 9' of utility easement along Oakridge Drive does not appear properly approaching Wheaton Drive, 9' of offset should follow around the property line curve up to the point where it intersects the existing 15' easement along Wheaton Drive. [11/4/03] The plat needs to dedicate additional right-of-way for Harmony Road and additional access and landscape easement behind the right-of-way as reflected on the 33rd filing. 9' of utility easement behind the right-of-way on Oakridge Drive is also required to be dedicated. The site plan appears to dimension these items (but not call this out) correctly but it is not reflected on the plat.

The outer boundary of the plat must go around the area to be dedicated on the southwest corner of the site. 3. Dedication statement is missing the "name" of the plat. 4.

Department: Natural Resources Issue Contact: Doug Moore Topic: General/Utility Plans Number: 37 Created: 11/6/2003 [12/18/03] Please add a note explaining this to your general notes on the utility plan set. The federal government has made changes to their policy related to Prairie Dog relocation. Contact the Colorado Division of Wildlife for more information. [11/6/03] If Prairie Dogs are currently located on the site they will need to be removed prior to any construction activity occurring including overlot grading. Currently the federal government is not allowing Prairie Dogs to be relocated due to the threat of the Monkey Pox Virus. Due this current ban on relocation if Prairie Dog are located or relocate to the property during construction (including overlot grading) they will need be humanly eradicated in accordance to Chapter 4 of the City Code. At any time if live Prairie Dogs are found on site during grading or other construction activities the construction site will be closed until the Prairie Dogs have been removed. Please add a note explaining this to your general notes on the utility plan set. Natural Resources will also add a provision to the development agreement for this project explaining this. Prairie Dog Removal. Before the commencement of grading or other construction on the development site, any prairie dogs inhabiting portions of the site within the Limits of Development (LOD) shall be relocated or eradicated by the developer using city -approved methods as set forth in Chapter 4 of the City Code and, when applicable, using methods reviewed and approved by the Colorado Division of Wildlife.

This is fine for purposes of review. however the reference plzit must be included in this construction set at the time of signature of the plans.

Number: 24 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/031 While this appears correctly on the title block of the construction plan set and the site plan, the title blocks on the top part of the sheets should also be revised to reflect this.

Number: 25 Created: 11/4/2003 If 2181031 My apologies, the comment was not clear and misinterpreted. PFA requires the emergency access easement to connect the two driveways internal to the property (from Oakridge Drive north and then west out to Wheaton Drive). At the same time, the area now shown on the plat as dedicated as an emergency access easement should be changed to a public access easement to ensure a public access easement is maintained throughout the connection of the two driveways onto Oakridge Drive. [ 11 /4/031 It appears that PFA needs the drive aisle connecting the two driveways to be dedicated as an emergency access easement. Please indicate such dedication on the plat. Number: 27 Created: 11/4/2003 [1218/031 Please ensure that the CDOT construction detail for this ramp is provided. An image of this was emailed on 11/21, and can be resent if not received. [ 1 1 /4/03] The new access ramp at the southeast corner of Harmony Road and Wheaton Drive should be constructed as a directional ramp, not a corner ramp. Number: 71 Created: 12/11/2003 112/11/031 There is conflicting information between the site plan and utility plans. The site plan calls out curb openings in the middle parking island median which are not called out in the utility plan. Also, the survey overlay sheet on the utility plan sheet shows the existing brick along Wheaton Drive is to be removed, but on the site plan it states it is to remain (the brick needs to be removed). Number: 72 Created: 12/12/2003 [12/12/031 The landscaping plan does not illustrate that trees are being removed which is only shown on the survey overlay sheet (C:-3) of the utility plan set. The landscaping plan needs to illustrate vegetation to be removed, which may be of concern to Planning and/or Forestry. Number: 73 Created: 12/16/2003 [ 12/ 16/031 Please realign the sidewalk along Harmony Road to ensure that the sidewalk is separated two feet from the existing landscape wall structure. Number. 75 Created: 12/16/2003 [ 12/ 16/03] Prior to a hearing, a letter of Intent from the property owner of the outlot at Harmony and Wheaton as well as the ditch company are required to verify that they do not object to the work within their property.

Topic: Landscaping Number: 80 Created: 12/17/2003 [ 12/ 17/031 Please situate the street trees along Wheaton Drive between the curb and sidewalk (parkway strip), not behind the sidewalk. Page 2 Topic: Plat Number: 22 Created: 11 /4/2003 [1218/031 After internal discussion it was concluded that, the developer is required to obtain the additional right-of-way along Harmony Road (as was done on the project east) which would presumably overlap a portion of the ditch. The 9' of utility easement along Oakridge Drive does not appear properly approaching Wheaton Drive, 9' of offset should follow around the property line curve up to the point where it intersects the existing 15' easement along Wheaton Drive. [ 1 1 /4/031 The plat needs to dedicate additional right-of-way for Harmony Road and additional access and landscape easement behind the right; -of -way as reflected on the 33rd filing. 9' of utility easement behind the right-of-way on Oakridge Drive is also required to be dedicated. The site plan appears to dimension these items (but not call this out) correctly but it is not reflected on the plat. Number: 48 Created: 11 /7/2003 [ 12/ 16/031 The response letter indicates that this notes refers to the Spring Canyon Lateral and that it has been revised; I'm still not seeing an Item #7 labeled on the plat, just referenced in the notes.

For example, on the brick end elements it could be done with courses; and on the main faces of the building, with brick courses or EIFS details. In particular, the multi -story area contained under the hoop or arch line does not express human scale or building stories, nor any reason for the hoop. IF there is a strong desire for such a tall element, it should be given a reason for being, with something different happening within it -- e.g. different fenestration.

The sidewalk must be aligned with the handicapped ramp. This development proposal is in a condition that is sufficient to be scheduled for a Planning and Zoning Board public hearing. The Holiday Inn Express item is being placed on the April 15, 2004, P & Z Board public hearing agenda. The issues and concerns expressed in this letter and on the enclosed red -lined plans will need to be addressed with your Final Compliance review, which is the next step (after the public hearing for the Project Development Plan) in the City's development review process.

STAFF PROJECT REVIEW Lightowler Johnson Associates c/o Andrew Wender 700 Main Avenue: Fargo, ND. 58103 i Date: 03/10/2004 MAR f 2004 j F f,•11 _r Staff has reviewed your submittal for OAKRIDGE BUSINESS PARK 36TH FILING, HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS PDP - TYPE II, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Advance Planning Issue Contact: Clark Mapes Topic: Building Plans Number: 108 Created: 3/1/2004 The building design would benefit from stronger horizontal detailing to mark the stories. For example, on the brick end elements it could be done with courses; and on the main faces of the building, with brick courses or EIFS details. In particular, the multi -story area contained under the hoop or arch line does not express human scale or building stories, nor any reason for the hoop. IF there is a strong desire for such a tall element, it should be given a reason for being, with something different happening within it -- e.g. different fenestration. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: General Number: 100 Created: 2/16/2004 [2/16/04] Why doesn't the sidewalk along Harmony Road heading west not curve south to tie directly with the access ramp? Number: 102 Created: 2/23/2004 [2/23/04] The access ramp detail originally provided was not the latest CDOT drawing. These are now provided with the Engineering comments. Number: 109 Created: 3/1/2004 [3/1/04] Just as an FYI, CDOT will require a warranty deed for the right-of-way dedication along Harmony Road. This is not required at this time. Topic: Landscaping Number: 103 Created: 2/23/2004 [2/23/04] CDOT requires that the trees along Harmony Road be set back 35' from the edge of the existing southernmost through lane. With about 10 feet of pavement for the bikelane and runoff, the trees need to be set back about 25' from the existing edge of pavement. All four Bur Oaks will need to be moved back. Page 1 Topic: Plat Number: 104 Created: 2/2?'2004 [2/23/041 Based upon information provided by Everitt Companies to the consultant, there doesn't appear to be any ditch right-of-way on the site. The plat should be revised accordingly to reflect this information. Number: 110 Created: 3/1/2004 [3/1/04] Technical Services offers the following comments: 1. Boundary and legal close. 2. Why is the area of the lot the same as the total area of the plat? (Additional right- of-way?) 3. Provide reception number on the plat for the offsite sidewalk and utility easement when recorded. 4. Where does the 30' public access easement go to, at the southeast corner? (Arrow goes to the 15' radius curve.) 5. The plat shows reference to Item #10, #15 etc. What/where #10, #15, etc?

Number. 27 Created. 11 /4/2003 [1 1 /4/03] The new access ramp at the southeast corner of Harmony Road and Wheaton Drive should be constructed as a directional ramp, not a corner ramp. Topic: Plat Number. 22 Created: 11 /4/2003 [ 1 1 /4/031 The plat needs to dedicate additional right-of-way for Harmony Road and additional access and landscape easement behind the right of -way as reflected on the 33rd fling. 9' of utility easement behind the right-of-way on Oakridge Drive is also required to be dedicated. The site plan appears to dimension these items (but not call this out) correctly but it is not reflected on the plat. Number: 23 Created: 11 /4/2003 [ 1 1 /4/031 There appears to be a portion of sidewalk along Oakridge Drive approaching Wheaton that is on private property.

Page 8 2. An easement is needed for the sidewalk connection to Wheaton Drive in the Harmony Road 80' setback area. Please contact Everitt Companies to acquire the easement. 3. Are the proposed Pervious Paver Blocks the best parking space solution in this area? 4. Thar are several parking spaces that do not meet the setback requirements from the street. 5. The subdivision plat needs to dedicate street right-of-way, easements, emergency access easement, public access easement, and landscape & access easement along Harmony Road. Stormwater: This development plan is not providing the required storm water detention. This site needs 5 times as much as is shown. This is a major issue. 2. The water quality as shown is not to the City's recommended standard. 3. The storm sewer system needs to be re -analyzed. There is a capacity question. Water/Wastewater: No meter is shown for water. 2. PVC pipe is not allowed. 3. Show the meter vault. Light & Power: The City cannot get poker to the west side of this site. Power will have to be shared with the MOP Restaurant to the east. This completes staff (and outside reviewing agencies) review and comments at this time. Additional comments and red -lined plans may be forthcomine. This proposal is subject to the 90-day revision re -submittal requirement (from the date of this comment letter, being November 18, 2003) as set tirrth in Section 2.2.1 I(A) of the Land Use Code. Be sure and return all of your red -lined plans when You rc_submit. The number of copies of each document to re -submit is shown on the attached Revisions Routing Sheet.

You s Truly, lJ" Steve Olt City Planner Paee 9 LIGHTOWLER JOHNSON ASSOCIATES INCORPORATED ARCHITECTS ENGINEERS November 27. 2003 Steve Olt, Project Manager City of Fort Collins 281 North College Avenue P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins, Co 80522-0580 Re: Oakridge Business Park 36th Filiing Holiday Inn Express and Suites Fort Collins, Colorado L.JA Project No. 03030 Dear Mr. Olt, Regarding the staff review comments for the proposed Holiday Inn Express, dated I I/18/03, we offer the following responses. We are resubmitting with intention to have a public hearing in January. We understand there will likely be more revisions requested. we feel that all the major issues have been resolved and that these plans are at least 50% complete. Issues: Department: Current Planning Topic: Building Plan 51 Comment has been noted. 59 Sheet A-4.1 has been revised and coordinated with Site Plan. 61 Elevations of the Trash -Recycle enclosure and the Maintenance building have been included in this submittal. Refer to Sheet A-0. 62 The building overhang and drive under forte overlap, providing protection from weather as provided by the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites prototype. 63 Please indicate specific required revisions. 64 The North elevation on sheet A-4.1 has been revised to include the brick fapade as requested. Topic: Landscape Plan 52 An independent irrigation installer is to be contracted by the owner. A note on the landscape plan has been added to direct the irrigation contractor to the CFC Water Conservation Standards. 700 MAIN AVENUE (701) 293-1350 (ND) FAX (701) 293-1353 POST OFFICE BOX 24CA (218) 233-3512 (MN) EMAIL. Ija ^ Fghtowlerjohnson.com FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA 58108-2404 WEBSIFE. www.lightowlerjohnson com 53 The paver blocks specified are not intended to allow vegetative growth. The pavers to be used are approximately 6 inches square with the corners cut. This allows an opening at every cornerjoint. An 18" sand cushion below the pavers is to be used for filtration of stormwater and the only reason incorporated into this design. These blocks are used extensively in Canada, where freeze thaw conditions are severe. They are also used frequently in extreme desert conditions to allow infiltration into water starved soils. 54 The blue spruce along Harmony road have been removed from the plan. The potentially protrusive trees have been replaced with smaller plantings. 55 A sidewalk connection to the IHOP has been added. Landscape plantings have been revised accordingly. 56 The drawings have been revised per the red lined drawings. Blue spruce has been removed from the North side of the Property 58 The shrubbery has been revised for better display. Topic: Signage 57 The exterior signage has been removed from the building elevations on Sheet A-4 and A-4.1. Topic: Site Plan 60 The proximity of the West building wall to the Wheaton Drive right of way was located as shown due to several site limitations. 1. The existing landscape wall at the Northwest corner is only 2.5 feet across the property line. In order to maintain the integrity of the wall, and not add additional bearing pressure to the hotel footings, the distance between these structures should be kept to a minimum. During construction, some shoring might be required for the existing wall. The proposed building location requires minimal amount of shoring. 2. Electrical service lines, Data service lines and telephone service lines will enter the building at this corner. Installation and maintenance of these lines would be more challenging if the building were further West. 3. The required water meter vault is to be located on the Hotel side of the property line. The dimension of the water meter vault is 8 feet. The distance between the meter vault and the building is 13 feet. Between the meter vault and the building, a proposed sewer lateral and drainage pipe are to be installed. Moving the building closer to the property line would require rerouting of these pipes. The site does not have the required slope to reroute the drainage pipe. 4. Should the building ever set on fire and collapse, at the proposed setback from Wheaton Drive, emergency personnel would have a safe distance to work between the crash zone and oncoming street traffic. 5. A four-story building looming over the sidewalk might not maintain the exceptionally aesthetic neighborhood the City of Fort Collins is trying to create. From a guest's perspective, some separation from they're sleeping room to the street might be more desirable. 6. The required space for large landscape plantings would not be available if the building were closer to the street. 7. Some of the first floor guest -room windows would look directly at the back of the existing wall if the building were closer to the street. Topic: Utility Plan 49 a) The existing gas pedestal has been located on the utility plans. b) A 9-foot utility easement has been shown on the plat along the North side of Oakridge Drive. c) All trees have been located at a minimum distance of 4-feet away from gas lines. 50 a) The requested easements have been included on the Plat and site plan. b) Request for service shall be made by the owner. The requested conduits for service line entry into the building have been included on the electrical plans. Department: Engineering Topic: Construction Drawings 10 The required approval block has been added to every sheet. 11 The grading and E&S plans have been revised for clarity. The surface area of parking lot draining over the public walk has been minimized to 750 SF Max. 40 Street patching information has been specified on the plans as requested. 41 The details have been updated to CFC standards as requested. 42 The ramp detail has been updated to CDOT standards as requested. 43 The sidewalk along Harmony road has been revised to be detached as requested. Topic: General 9 The existing bricks along Wheaton Drive will be removed. A new detached sidewalk will be installed. A CDOT approved directional ramp will be aligned with the ramp across Wheaton Drive. A ramp will not be installed on the South side of Harmony Road. 15 The site and landscape plans have been removed from the construction drawing set. The sheet arrangement has been revised as requested. 16 The modular paver blocks are to be installed in the parking stall area only as shown on sheet C-2. The calculations on sheet C-9 reflect the impervious/pervious ratio corrections for stormwater calculations in Area F. According to the UDFCD, for areas covered with pervious pavers, the ratio of impervious to pervious surface is 50:50. 21 The plan has been modified to comply with the 50' setback from Wheaton Drive. 24 The title block has been revised as requested. 25 The requested Emergency Access Easement has been specified on the Plat and site plan. 26 The driveway onto Oakridge Drive shall be the same style used on Wheaton. Radial curves are NOT to be used as per CFC code. 27 The access ramp at the Harmony / Wheaton intersection shall be directional as requested. Topic: Plat 22 It appears that additional right of way cannot be dedicated due to the existing Irrigation easement. The requested easements have been included in the revisions to the plat. 23 The property line bump out at the Wheaton and Oakridge intersection has been dedicated as street right of way. 47 Please inform us of the resolution regarding the Spring Canyon lateral. 48 The note on the plat refers to the Spring Canyon Lateral Easement and has been corrected accordingly. Department: Light & Power Topic: General 12 Please contact the owner for all required development fees. 13 A C-1 commercial form has been completed and included with this submittal. 14 The proposed transformer has been removed from the utility plans. A note has been added that the existing IHOP transformer will be replaced and shared between the two facilities. Department: Natural Resources Topic: General/Utility Plans 37 The notes regarding prairie dogs have been updated as requested. Topic: Utility Plans 38 LOD lines have been proposed on the plan revisions. Department: Police Topic: General 36 All exterior doors to the hotel will have windows. Employee access and deliveries shall be through public access locations. Department: Stormwater Utility Topic: Drainage 17 The required stormwater detention volume has been recalculated for full detention of the 100-year storm at the new rainfall intensities. The maximum pending depth of I -foot has not been exceeded. 18 The 40-hour extended extended detention criteria for water quality mitigation was used in the Sand filter basin design and located in the Water Quality Volume Calculation section of the Stormwater Management & Erosion and Sediment Control Report. 19 The prorated release rate of 1.2 CFS for this site is proposed to drain into coneyence element 34, which is a 24-inch RCP. This element directs water to the drainage channel, conveyence element 22. According to the Overall Master drainage plan, the current contributing flows in element 34 is 6 CFS. At the minimum allowable slope of 0.5%, this pipe is capable of transporting up to 16 CFS. An additional 1.2 CFS should not exceed the capacity of the pipe. Calculations have been included in the Report. 44 Benchmark 99-44 has been corrected as requested. 45 The limits of the 100 year water surface and the outfall storm sewer have dedicated as a drainage easement on the plat and the site plan. 46 The outlet structure has been revised to the CFC standard. Topic: Erosion /Sediment Control 20 I Please indicate the location of the current Notes so we may make the required corrections. 2 The Erosion Control Report is included at the back of the Stormwater Management & Erosion Control Report. Please indicate any specific changes required to this report. Department: Transportation Planning Topic: Transportation 28 The easement labels have been corrected as requested. 29 The bump out of the property line has been removed and the area has been dedicated as right of way as requested. 30 The trees have been relocated as required. 3l The evergreens adjacent to the Sidewalk along Harmony have been replaced with less obtrusive species. 32 A not stating that "Two feet of clearance from the sidewalk to the existing hedge shall be maintained." Has been added to the landscape plan and the demolition plan. 33 The shade trees along Harmony have been removed. The existing shade trees shall be preserved as extensively as possible. Department: Water Wastewater Topic: General 34 The internal water meter has been removed. The required meter vault has been located on the utility plan to the specified dimensions. Details for the meter vault have been added. 35 The utility plan has been revised to display 0.2 feet of drop through the manhole. The note to reshape the bench has been added as well. Topic: Utility Plans 39 A note stating "No landscape plantings shall be within 4-feet of any utility line." Has been added to the landscape plan and the utility plan. Department: Zoning Topic: Zoning A total of six inverted u type bicycle parking stalls are included on the site plan. Three stalls are located by the North door which is adjacent to the bicycle path along Harmony Road. The other three are located as close to the front door as possible. The building footprint as shown displays the outermost edge of the proposed structure. Dimensions have been added as requested. The exterior signage has been removed from the building elevations on Sheet A-4 and A-4.1 as requested. The building overhang and drive under porte overlap providing protection from weather as provided by the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites prototype. Elevations for the maintenance building and trash -recycle enclosure have been added to the submittal. Refer to Sheet A-0. Counts for planting groupings have been added as requested.

Also, the 50% rule for features such as windows, entrances, arcades, arbors, awnings, treillage with vines details is not being represented. [11/18/03] The east and west elevations of the building appear to need more detailing to meet Section 3.5.3(D)(3) of the LUC. Number:95 Created: 12/22/2003 [12122103] This building appears to be 52' to 57' in height. Section 3.5.1(G) of the LUC sets forth the requirement that all buildings or structures in excess of 40' in height shall be subject to special review. The review criteria is set forth in Sections 3.5.1(G)(1)(a) Review Standards and (b) Submittal Requirements. Number: 96 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] Please review Sections 3.5.3(D)(2), (3) & (4) of the LUC regarding building Character and Image, specifically Fagade Treatment (all sides), Facades, and Entrances. The building does not appear to satisfy, as a minimum, the building bay requirements and the street facing building articulation requirements. Number: 97 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] There is still signage shown on the West Building Elevation that must be removed from the Building Elevations plan. Page 1 r Topic, Landscaping Number: 52 Created: 11/13/2003 [12/19/03] Repeat Comment. [11/13/03] Laurie D' Audney of the City's Water Conservation Department is forwarding copies of the Water Conservation Standards for Landscapes COMMENT SHEET and Water Conservation Standards for LANDSCAPING and IRRIGATION SYSTEMS General Information. Number: 86 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Remove the UTILITY PLAN APPROVAL block from the Landscape Plan. No signature blocks are needed on this plan. Number: 87 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] The street trees along Wheaton Drive must be in the parkway strip between back of curb and the sidewalk, per Section 3.2.1(D)(2)(a) of the Land Use Code. Number: 88 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] There are a number of existing trees at the northwest corner of this site that have not been and are not shown on the Landscape Plan. * 3 Cottonwood - south of existing wall * 4 Austrian Pine - south of existing wall * 2 Chokecherry - north of existing wall A utility plan sheet shows these trees to be removed. After a site visit, City staff (City Forester and Planning) is of the opinion that several of these trees can be retained and protected. The western -most Austrian Pine should not be in jeopardy with the construction of the hotel building. One, and maybe two, of the Cottonwood may Ze able to be retained. Please see the colored drawing attached to this comment letter. The trees that may be removed will have to be mitigated for, in the form of the following: * Cottonwood trees ...... 4 trees per each tree to be removed. * Austrian Pines ........... 3 trees per each tree to be removed. * Chokecherry trees ..... 2 trees per each tree to be removed. There are probably enough new trees on the Landscape Plan to provide mitigation; however, enough of them must be upsized to provide the required mitigation. Depending on how many trees are to be removed the number of mitigation trees ranges from 17 to 28. The mitigation standards are set forth in Section 3.2.1(F)(1) of the LUC and are as follows: * Canopy shade trees ..... minimum 3" caliper, balled and burlap * Ornamental trees ......... minimum 2.5" caliper, balled and burlap * Evergreen trees ........... minimum 8' height, balled and burlap Page 2 Number: 94 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] There were 4 Bur Oak trees shown along East Harmony Road, in the 80' setback area, on the previous Landscape Plan. They are in the Harmony Corridor Standards & Guidelines Oak Palette and it is unclear as to why they have been removed from the Landscape Plan. Number: 98 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] There are a number of shrubs on the Plant List that do not appear in either of the plant palettes in the Harmony Corridor Standards & Guidelines. See the red -lined Landscape Plan reviewed by Current Planning. Please understand that the plant materials to be used in the "setback zone" along Harmony Road and in the "setback areas" along local and collector streets are guidelines, not standards. These palettes are; however, strongly recommended. Topic: Signage Number: 57 Created: 11/17/2003 [12/22/03] There is still signage being shown on the West Building Elevation on Sheet A-4 of the Building Elevations. This signage must be removed from the plan. [11/17/03] Remove all signage from the Building Elevations. This development is subject to the City of Fort Collins Sign Code that is administered by the Zoning Department. The allowable signage will be determined outside of this Project Development Plan review. Topic: Site Plan Number: 83 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] The Expansion Joints (EJ) should not be shown on the Site Plan. This is a Site Plan, not a utility plan. The symbol just clutters the drawing. Number: 84 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Please see the attached example of the approval and signature blocks that are required on a Site Plan. The UTILITY PLAN APPROVAL block should not be on the Site Plan. This is a Site Plan, not a utility plan. Number: 85 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] The Drainage Easement Boundary that was added to the Site Plan with this second round of review should be removed. This is a Site Plan, not a drainage plan. Page 3 Topic: Utility Plans Number: 81 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Len Hilderbrand of Xcel Energy offered the following comments: a. They have a 3" gas main located in the easements on the west and south edges of the site. b. Please contact Connie Woodward for installation of gas service. 5he can be contacted at(970)225-7843. Number: 82 Created: 12/19/2003 [12/19/03] Dennis Greenwalt of Comcast Cable (TV) indicated that they would like to see the 80' Access and Landscape Easement along East Harmony Road changed to Access, Utility and Landscape Easement. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: Construction Drawings Number: 10 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] When noting previously that the approval block should be on all sheets, it wasn't intended to be on the site and landscape plans, as these are not typically part of a construction drawing set. Please have the approval block removed from the site and landscape plans. [11/4/03] Please revise the approval block on the construction set as shown on the redlines. The approval block should be on all sheets. Number: 41 Created: 11/7/2003 [12/16/03] This item wasn't addressed, however it is not required to be addressed until the submittal after a public hearing. At that time, please ensure that LCUA55 details 706 and 1602 are added (and replace previous details reflecting driveway approach and sidewalk installation). (In conjunction with a previous comment, ensure the CDOT detail for access ramps is also included). [11/7/03] Please replace details on the details sheet with City standard details as redlined (such as access ramps, driveways, etc.) Topic: General Number: 15 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] The construction drawing set does not have the plat reference sheets in it. This is fine for purposes of review, however the reference plat must be included in this construction set at the time of signature of the plans. [11/4/03] Please separate the site and landscape plans from the construction drawing set (and not name them C-2 and C-6 respectively). These are items that will be filed separate from the construction drawing set. The construction drawing set should have Page 4 all remaining sheets assembled together within the plan set (ensure that the grading plan sheet included within the drainage report is also included in the construction drawing set). The plat, while also filed separately, should also be included in the construction drawing set as a sheet for reference, placed immediately after the cover sheet. The cover sheet index should note that the second sheet in the plan set is a plat for reference. Number: 24 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] While this appears correctly on the title block of the construction plan set and the site plan, the title blocks on the top part of the sheets should also be revised to reflect this. [11/4/03] Please revise the title on all the documents to read "Oakridge Business Park 36th Filing, Holiday Inn Express". Number: 25 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] My apologies, the comment was not clear and misinterpreted. PFA requires the emergency access easement to connect the two driveways internal to the property (from Oakridge Drive north and then west out to Wheaton Drive). At the same time, the area now shown on the plat as dedicated as an emergency access easement should be changed to a public access easement to ensure a public access easement is maintained throughout the connection of the two driveways onto Oakridge Drive.

Number: 71 Created: 12/11/2003 [12/11/03] There is conflicting information between the site plan and utility plans. The site plan calls out curb openings in the middle parking island median which are not called out in the utility plan. Also, the survey overlay sheet on the utility plan sheet shows the existing brick along Wheaton Drive is to be removed, but on the site plan it states it is to remain (the brick needs to be removed).

Box 2464 Fargo, ND 58108 Dear Stevan, For your information, attached is a copy of the Staff's comments concerning the request for a Holiday Inn Express @ Oakridge Business Park which was presented before the Conceptual Review Team on April 7, 2003. This is a request for a new Holiday Inn Express Hotel in the Oakridge Business Park. The hotel would be a 4-story building containing 87 units (guest rooms). The property is 2.17 acres in size and is located at the northeast corner of Oakridge Drive and Wheaton Drive. The existing IHOP Restaurant is directly to the east and East Harmony Road is along the north side. The property is in the HC - Harmony Corridor Zoning District. The comments are offered informally by Staff to assist you in preparing the detailed components of the project application. Modifications and additions to these comments may be made at the time of formal review of this project. If you should have any questions regarding these comments or the next steps in the review process, please feel free to call me at 221-6341.

Topic: Plat Number: 22 Created: 11/4/2003 [12/8/03] After internal discussion it was concluded that, the developer is required to obtain the additional right-of-way along Harmony Road (as was done on the project east) which would presumably overlap a portion of the ditch. The 9' of utility easement along Oakridge Drive does not appear properly approaching Wheaton Drive, 9' of offset should follow around the property line curve up to the point where it intersects the existing 15' easement along Wheaton Drive. [11/4/03] The plat needs to dedicate additional right-of-way for Harmony Road and additional access and landscape easement behind the right-of-way as reflected on the 33rd filing. 9' of utility easement behind the right-of-way on Oakridge Drive is also required to be dedicated. The site plan appears to dimension these items (but not call this out) correctly but it is not reflected on the plat.

Number: 93 Created: 12/22/2003 [12/22/03] Technical Services offered the following comments: 1. Legal closes. Plat boundary is missing several bearings/distances. 2. The outer boundary of the plat must go around the area to be dedicated on the southwest corner of the site. 3. Dedication statement is missing the "name" of the plat. 4. Areas of lot and plat will change with dedication of tract. Department: Natural Resources Issue Contact: Doug Moore Topic: General/Utility Plans Number: 37 Created: 11/6/2003 [12/18/03] Please add a note explaining this to your general notes on the utility plan set. The federal government has made changes to their policy related to Prairie Dog relocation. Contact the Colorado Division of Wildlife for more information. [11/6/03] If Prairie Dogs are currently located on the site they will need to be removed prior to any construction activity occurring including overlot grading. Currently the federal government is not allowing Prairie Dogs to be relocated due to the threat of the Monkey Pox Virus. Due this current ban on relocation if Prairie Dog ore located or relocate to the property during construction (including overlot grading) they will need be humanly eradicated in accordance to Chapter 4 of the City Code. At any time if live Prairie Dogs are found on site during grading or other construction activities the construction site will be closed until the Prairie Dogs have been removed. Please add a note explaining this to your general notes on the utility plan set. Natural Resources will also add a provision to the development agreement for this project explaining this. Prairie Dog Removal. Before the commencement of grading or other construction on the development site, any prairie dogs inhabiting portions of the site within the Limits of Development (LOD) shall be relocated or eradicated by the developer using city -approved methods as set forth in Chapter 4 of the City Code and, when applicable, using methods reviewed and approved by the Colorado Division of Wildlife.

Box 2464 Fargo, ND 58108 LAND USE DATA: Request for a new Holiday Inn Express Hotel in the Oakridge Business Park. The hotel would be a 4-story building containing 87 units (guest rooms). The property is 2.17 acres in size and is located at the northeast corner of Oakridge Drive and Wheaton Drive. The existing IHOP Restaurant is directly to the east and East Harmony Road is along the north side. The property is in the HC - Harmony Corridor Zoning District. COMMENTS: Gary Lopez of the Zoning Department offered the following comments: a. This property is in the HC - Harmony Corridor Zoning District. The HC District in the Land Use Code (LUC) permits lodging establishments, subject to a Planning and Zoning Board (Type II) review and public hearing. b. Lodging establishments are considered to be Secondary Uses in the Harmony Corridor District, as set forth in Section 4.21(D)(2) of the LUC, and they can occupy no more that 25% of the total gross area of the development plan. In this case, the overall Oakridge Business Park is the development plan and the most current overall development plan of record for the Oakridge Business Park shows COMMUNITY PLANN ING, AN O ENV IRONMENTAL SERVICES M l N.

C. The request will have to comply with all the regulations and standards set forth in Article 3 - General Development Standards and the Permitted Uses, Land Use Standards and Development Standards in Division 4.21 - Harmony Corridor District of the LUC. It is also subject to the standards and guidelines set forth in the Harmony Corridor Plan and Harmony Corridor Standards and Guidelines, both adopted by City Council. d. Lodging establishments are subject to maximum parking allowances, as set forth in Section 3.2.2(K)(2)(c) of the LUC. The allowance is one (1) parking space for each unit and there is no additional parking allowance for conference facilities. Please contact Gary, at (970)416-2338, if you have questions about these comments. 2. Marc Virata of the Engineering Department offered the following comments: a. The standard utility plan submittal requirements will apply to this development request. b. Street oversizing fees will apply to this development request. The fees are based on vehicle trip generation for the proposed land use in the development plan. Please contact Matt Baker of Engineering, at (970)224-6108, for detailed information on the fees. The fees will be. collected at the time of issuance of building permits. C. The Lorimer County Road Impact Fees will apply to development on this property. d. A Transportation Impact Study (TI5), addressing all modes of transportation, will be required with your Project Development Plan (PDP) submittal. Please contact Eric Bracke of the Traffic Operations Department, at (970)224-6062 and Tom Reiff of the Transportation Planning Department, at (970)416-2040 to determine what information may be needed in the TIS pertaining to Level of Service (LOS) for vehicle, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes of transportation. e. The proposed attached sidewalk along Wheaton Drive does not comply with the current City Street Design Standards. There is a variance procedure available if the applicant wants to request the ability to construct an attached walk. f. East Harmony Road is a 6-lane arterial street and both Wheaton Drive and Oakridge Drive are collector streets. g. This property may have to dedicate additional street right-of-way (ROW) for all 3 streets bordering it. Also, the necessary easements behind the ROW's for each street must be dedicated with the subdivision plat. h. This development may be responsible for reimbursements for improvements to Wheaton Drive and Oakridge Drive. The drives and directional ramps are subject to the requirements set forth in the Lorimer County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS). j. Please familiarize yourself with Appendix E-4, the complete construction documentation checklist, in LCUASS as this development request will be subject to the requirement. k. There are requirements for minimum parking space setback from street flowlines; and, the concept plan appears not to meet the setback requirements. I. Please coordinate off-street, cross -vehicular access with the IHOP Restaurant to the east. Please contact Marc, at (970)221-6750 or (970)221-6605, if you have questions about these comments. 3. Jeff Hill of the Water/Wastewater Department offered the following comments: a. There is an existing 8" water main in Wheaton Drive and an existing 12" water main in Oakridge Drive. b. There is an existing 8" sanitary sewer main in Wheaton Drive. C. If there are any existing services stubbed into this site they must be used or vacated at the main. d. Domestic water service and the fire flow line cannot be in the same water line. e. Plant investment fees and water rights will apply to this development request. They will be collected at the time of issuance of building permits. f. The City's water conservation standards for landscaping and irrigation systems may apply to this development request. Please contact Jeff, at (970)221-6674, if you have questions about these comments. 4. Glen Schlueter of the Stormwater Utility offered the following comments: a. The site is located in the McClellands/Mail Creek Drainage Basin, where the new development fee is $3,717 per acre, which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. b. The site is on Stormwater Inventory Map #10Q. A copy of the map can be obtained from the Utility Service Center at 700 Wood Street. C. The standard drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required and they must be prepared by a professional engineer registered in the State of Colorado. d. The applicant asked about the outfolls into the streets. East Harmony road is a State highway and drainage is not allowed into it. Unless there is an existing Swale that has historic flows into it along Harmony Road, the runoff outfoll in that direction would not be allowed. Wheaton Drive has a stormsewer in it so that would be the best outf all. Oakridge Drive is an option and runoff could be discharged into the curb and gutter since there is no stormsewer. e. Water quality extended detention is required to treat the runoff. f. The applicant's design engineer should refer to the overall Oakridge drainage report for the detention requirements. In any case, there would be some detention since rainfall requirements have increased since the original report and there is the water quality extended detention requirement, as mentioned above. Please contact Glen, at (970)224-6065, if you have questions about these comments. 5. Alan Rutz of the Light & Power Department offered the following comments: a. Please coordinate the transformer location with Light & Power. b. The standard electric development charges will apply to this development request. . . C. A C-1 Commercial Form must be filled out to help determine the power needs for this development. Please contact Alan, at (970)224-6153, if you have questions about these comments. 6. Doug Moore of the Natural Resources Department offered the following comments: a. Native plant materials and grasses should be incorporated in the Landscape Plan for the development. The use of bluegrass should be minimized. b. If prairie dogs exist on this property they must be relocated or humanely eradicated prior to any construction occurring on -site, including overlot grading. This is set forth in Section 3.4.1(N)(5) of the LUC.
