Only one set of drawings was submitted for review, so an approved set of drawings is not being returned with this letter. If you would like to have an approved set of drawings for your records, please send me another set. I will approve and return them to you. Based on my review, I have the following comments: 1. The street layout appears to meet the standards of the Fire District subject to the following: a. Temporary cul-de-sacs, with a diameter of 96 feet, are Installed as the project is phased. b. The landscaping on the islands in Meadow Vale Road are selected to ago avoid the narrowing of the drives on either side of the island, and A ii i r. maintain the required 13 feet, six inches in height. i c. The temporary access road from WCR 5 nfa is maintained as an all- u weather road until Meadow Vale Road is completed to WCR 5 tfs as part c of Filing 3. The approach and departure angles at the transition between WCR 5 th and the emergency access route, and the transition between M 1 8 k Meadow Vale Road and the emergency access route cannot exceed 12 degrees. The emergency access route needs to be able to support 60,000 N e4 lbs. of imposed load in all weather conditions. If the emergency access M road is be closed off to non-emergency traffic at any tithe, then the method of Closure is to be approved by the Fire District. (Fire Protection I Development Standards Chapter 3) X• F. M The fire hydrant locations for the entire project were not shown on the a a submitted plans. The hydrants shown on the plans for Filing 1 meet the ,e• 0 d I 2 requirements of the Fire District for location and number.

The Fire District has a special concern about the proposed combination irrigation and fire protection system. Documentation and calculations need to be provided to the Fire District that demonstrate the following: a. The required fire flow will be available with the irrigation demand at a maximum. This needs to be done with a recognized modeling scheme using measurable nodes (hydrants) as the most demanding locations. b. The storage capacity is sufficient to provide the required duration of the required fire flow on a year-round basis. c. The method of controlling irrigation useage, if the required fire flow and/or duration of fire flow is not available. d.

RECEIVED Dear Mr. Hodges: I have reviewed the submitted materials for compliance with the adopted codes and standards of the Fire District. The project is within the boundaries of the Fire District and will receive service from the District. The Fire District has no objections to the project if the requirements of the District can be met. Based on my review, I have the following comments: 1. The minimum required fire flow is 1,000 gallons per minute at 20 pounds per square inch. This flow is sufficient for a residence of 3,600 square feet. Larger residences will have higher fire flows requirements, or will need to install residential fire sprinkler systems. For the purposes of this requirement, the floor area is the total area of all floors of the building within the exterior walls, and under the horizontal overhang of the roof of the building. In a residence, it includes all areas, finished and unfinished, and the garage. It should be noted that there is an error in the proposed covenants in Article VI, Section 29 which references this requirement. This section specifies that the fire flow calculation includes only the finished floor area. This is not accurate. (Fire Protection Development Standards Section 5.02-1) 2. Fire hydrants are required throughout the subdivision, with the locations for the hydrants meeting the standards of the Fire District. Water supplies for fire protection purposes, including the reliability of the on-site storage, are required to meet the standards of the Fire District. Initially the water supply from the Left Hand Water District for fire protection will meet those standards, however, the on-site system, will need to be in service, tested and approved by the Fire District before any transition from the Left Hand water supply will be approved.

Access routes in the subdivision are required to meet the requirements of the Fire District. Since the subdivision is planned for phased construction, access must meet the standards of the District during the phasing. (Fire Protection Development Standards Chapter 3) 4. Streets must be marked with signs showing the name and address range. If standard street signs are used, then the signs do not need to be submitted to the Fire District for approval. If signs, other than standard signs are used, then the signs need to be submitted to the District for approval prior to installation.

Landscaping: We will not allow and trees, shrubs, entry walls or fences placed within the 100-foot right-of-way of WCR 5.5 at this location. Road Improvement and Maintenance Agreement: The applicant should enter into a Road Improvement and Maintenance Agreement with Weld County Public Works on upgrading, paving, and realigning WCR 5.5 from the northern boundary of the property to State Highway 119. Utility Permits: The applicant needs to acquire an underground utility permit from the Public Works Department prior to beginning any utility work within the County right-of-way. Please contact Don Somer, Utility Agent, (970)356-4000 Ext 3750 (office) or(970)381-3779 (mobile). Access: The applicant has indicated a temporary emergency access on to WCR 5.5 south of the main access. The applicant will need to acquire a temporary emergency access from the Public Works Department. To Be Placed on the Mylar: Cul-de-Sac Design Standards, Section No.10.2.1.13: The applicant needs to place on the mylar a 50-foot paved radius in accordance with the Subdivision Regulations. Typical Cross Sections: All typical cross sections will meet the Weld County Standards and the requirements set forth on our memo dated May 8, 1995, at the Planned Unit Development sketch plan stage. In the second filing of the WCR 5.5 Improvement Section, Sheet 14 of 22, the applicant needs to indicate the depth of asphalt and base. IDCHIBIT 961'764 -- - Todd Hodges July 12, 1996 Page 2 Upgrading,Paving and Realigning WCR 5.5: The applicant has indicated that no improvements will be done to WCR 5.5 in the first phase. Once the second phase begins, which will be after selling the 11th lot, the realignment, upgrading, and paving from the main entrance south to State Highway 119 will occur. This will consist of new realignment,paving, and widening the existing road 36 feet wide with 4-foot shoulders. This needs to be shown on the cross-section. An additional auxiliary lane will be used as an acceleration lane and a right turn lane on to State Highway 119. The northern most entrance will be constructed as a future phase when the 60th lot is submitted for a building permit. The remaining asphalt section north of the entrance will remain 24 feet wide with 4-foot shoulders. State Access: The applicant needs to obtain an access on to State Highway 119. Please contact Tess Jones, Colorado Department of Transportation, Greeley Office. Storm Water Drainage: The applicant has addressed the storm water drainage with a detention pond at the sketch plan stage, which will conform to Weld County standards. Please see attached the memo dated May 8, 1995, at the sketch plan stage for the PUD. cc: Commissioner Hall S-403 plan8 961764 e 't mEmORAnDUm �����• Gloria Dunn, Current Planner May 8, 1995 To Date COLORADO From Don Carroll, Project Administrator 1k-' S-379; Meadow Vale Farms, Inc. Subject: Planed Unit Development Sketch Plan I have visited the site and have reviewed the application and drawings and have the following comments: In talking to Theresa Jones,Colorado Department of Transportation,Access Division,about the access from WCR 5.5 to State Highway 119 to determine how we could improve this access point by changing it to a 90° angle verses the existing alignment. It would provide for a safer access on to St. Hwy 119. The applicant is indicates that a realignment of WCR 5.5 will take place after ten lots are developed. The applicant will dedicate the additional right-of-way to change WCR 5.5 to a collector status,which will require a 100'feet right-of-way through the development area. The segment of WCR 5.5 that is upgraded to a collector status will be from St. Hwy 119 to the northernmost project entrance at the end of the property. It will be paved and constructed in conformance with Weld County's standards. Paving will be constructed in phases with pavement to the southernmost entrance being constructed and realigned at the time the 11th lot is submitted for a building permit. The northernmost entrance will be constructed as future phases. At what particular time would the applicant be completing the entire paving of WCR 5.5? The applicant is indicating that all streets will be dedicated to Weld County and will be in conformance with County standards. Is the applicant indicating that the internal road system be maintained by the Homeowners Association or by Weld County? Interior streets will be designed in conformance with Weld County standards and will consist of 24' wide asphalt surface with 4'grass-lined borrow ditches on each side of the road way. Weld County Road 5.5 in the new realignment section needs to be built 36'wide with 4'gravel shoulders. An additional auxiliary lane will be used as a acceleration and right turn lane on to St.Hwy 119. The remaining asphalt section north from the entrance will remain 24'wide with 4'gravel shoulders. Fifty foot radiuses will be required at St. Hwy 119 and 30'radiuses will be required at both the south and the north entrances to the PUD. The remaining section of WCR 5.5 has some horizontal and vertical curve problems through the PUD section. Once this section is paved, speeds will increase, which will make the chance of an accident greater. Could the developer possibly realign the curve in the PUD section? The storm drainage will be carried through borrow ditches on the east end of the property. The detention pond will be designed in conformance with the Weld County standards. cc: Commissioner Webster S-379 file :p1an7.dc 961164 SSt. girtain cSa12Ltation .l ,i.sttiet p p (cSaint cSan) f�/ p p p ��eCe�iton£ 575�Vimbaxk cSt.,cSuits 109 (303)776-9570 ±on5moat,ClD 80501 July 5, 1996 Weld County Planning Dept.

(Case Number S-403) Dear Mr. Hodges: I have reviewed the referral material you sent me, plus a more detailed Preliminary Master Sanitary Sewer Plan for the entire subdivision provided by Mr. Floyd Oliver. I will address each separately for both the County's and Mr. Oliver's benefit. Filing No. 1 (11 lots) Easements. Either utility easements must be provided fran: - SVSD Manhole A-75 to WCR 5.5, - SVSD A-77 to Meadow Vale Road, or a Note might be added to the Filing Plat to the effect that perpetual rights of entry are granted for future maintenance and operation in "open space" where sewer lines run. An additional easement concern is where sewers run under the internal streets. The third paragraph of Attorney Droegenuller's letter states that interior streets will be dedicated to County but maintained by homeowner's association. Yet there is also an agreement subtitled Private Road Maintenance. If streets are dedicated to County, no problem; but if they are indeed private, a similar Filing Plat Note providing for access will be needed. Line Size. District engineering standards call for 0.4% mini.rman grade for 8-inch and 0.28% for 10-inch PVC lines. The line from SVSD Manhole A-75 to WCR 5.5 and the north stub are on a 0.3% grade. These must be 10-inch lines. atiiini 961764 Mr. Todd Hodges July 5, 1996 Page 2 Connections to District System. As shown the design proposes the insertions of new manholes adjacent to SVSD Manholes A-75 and A-77. This is unsatisfactory. The Meadow Vale connection must be directly into SVSD Manholes A-75 and A-77. Manhole A-77 is a drop manhole. An internal PVC drop secured by stainless steel fasteners is acceptable, so long as it doesn't interfere with normal ingress into the manhole. Manhole Numbering. Manholes must utilize SVSD numbering conventions and all drawing must so conform. Manholes off of A-75 would read A-75-1, A-75-2, etc. Manholes off a lateral connection at A-75-2 would read A-75-2-1, A-75-2-2, etc. Underdrains. Drawings and/or Notes must address how and where sewer underdrains daylight. PVC Pipe Specification. Add SDR-35 to Note 8; Sheet 9 of 22. Line Dedication. A Service Agreement between the Developer and SVSD will be required to provide for construction warranties and dedication of lines for future maintenance and operation. This Service Agreement can cover the entire Meadow Vale subdivision. The District is initiating its preparation. Total Subdivision. In addition to the above comments, the following pertain: Inclusion into the District. The portion of this Subdivision located in Section 5, T2N, R68W, Sixth P.M. is not within the District. (Filing No. 1 is within Section 4 and within the District. ) A Petition for Inclusion must be submitted and approved prior to development extending into Section 5. This takes 45-90 days, depending upon when it is submitted. Line Size. The line in WCR 5.5 extending north to Manhole labeled A-6 must be 10 inch due to mimimun grade standards. The District wishes to continue this line at its 993,360 GPD capacity, and will rebate 961764 Mr. Todd Hodges July 5, 1996 Page 3 $100.00 per single family tap for oversizing, should oversizing be required to maintain this capacity. Easements. In addition to 20-foot easements on lot lines where sewer lines run, which have been provided in Filing No. 1, the following additional easements are required: - 20-foot Easements or Note regarding Open Space Access south of Farm House lot and south of Block 16 where sewer leaves WCR 5.5 ROW. - 20-foot Easement along east side of Block 17 (school site) to serve area to the north. - 20-foot Easement between Lots 3 and 4, Block 14, to serve area to the north. This will require alignment of Manhole A-13 on this property line. - 20-foot easement between Lots 4 and 5, Block 13, to serve area to the north. Manhole C-3 location appears satisfactory. - 20-foot easement from Manhole B-11 to west boundary, should Blue Mountain Road not be continued to west boundary. - 20-foot Easement between Lots 8 and 9, Block 8. Manhole G-5 appears to be properly located. I trust this meets your needs. Please call me if you have any questions. Very truly yours, ST. VRAIN SION DISTRICT ByLi14- L. D. Lawson, P.E.

This proposed PUD is located north of SH119 and west of WCRS' . I understand that the first filing includes the first 11 lots to be developed in the 89 lot PUD. The City previously commented on both the sketch plan and the change of zone applications. The applicant has responded to several of Longmont's comments, and the City appreciates the applicant's efforts to address those concerns. The change of zone application indicated that after WCR51 is realigned at its intersection with SH119, the area vacated after realignment will be landscaped with tress and non-irrigated turf. The City has commented about the possible landscaping and long term maintenance of the triangular remnant parcel that is between the existing and future rights-of-way for WCRS1, and has thought that its landscaping may be an appropriate improvement necessary for creating a scenic entrance corridor along SH119. A portion of this remnant parcel, along with the portion of WCRSrk which is to be vacated, is included in the first filing. The landscape plan submitted with this filing does not show the landscaping and maintenance for either this remnant parcel nor the vacated portion of WCRS'h. If Weld County concurs that landscaping of these areas is appropriate, it may be a detail you want to resolve as part of your review and approval of this first filing.
