Students living in this subdivision would attend Mead Elementary School, Mead Middle School, and Skyline High School under the present school boundaries. Bus transportation would be required.

This development alone will create capacity concerns at the elementary school level. The District is on record as not opposing growth, so long as the growth is planned and is manageable from a student enrollment stand point. As the volume of development increases in the Mead attendance area with no alleviation of the existing overcrowded conditions, the ability to provide the same quality education for these new students that is provided students in other areas becomes increasingly difficult. Therefore, the District cannot support this development because it will create overcrowding in the Mead feeder system. The District would like to continue discussions with the developer to discuss the possibility of land dedication or cash -in -lieu to mitigate the student impacts that are created by this development.

The proposed subdivision is within the boundaries of the Fire District, and will be served by the District. If the subdivision meets the requirements of the Fire District, then the District has no objections to the subdivision. Based on my review, I have the following comments: 1. All streets within the subdivision will need to support 60,000 pounds of imposed load. (Fire Protection Development Standards Section 3.01- 1) 2. Submit at least two copies of the final plat showing streets and roads to the Fire District for approval. (Uniform Fire Code Section 10.202) 3. The minimum required fire flow for the subdivision residential areas is 1,000 gallons per minute at 20 pounds per square inch. However, the community lodge may have a higher required fire flow based on the floor area, type of construction and built-in fire protection. (Fire Protection Development Standards Section 5.02-1) 4. Fire hydrant locations will be required to meet the standards of the Fire District. Submit at least two copies of the subdivision plan, showing fire hydrant locations and water main sizes and location to the Fire District for approval, prior to beginning construction.

Hodges, Current Planner Weld County Department of Planning Services 1400 N. 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 RE: CASE NUMBER: S-378 Dear Todd: Thank you very much for sending the LongView PUD final plan application to the City of Longmont for our review and comment. The proposed manufactured housing development is located at the northwest corner of 5H119 and WCR3'h. Several of the City's comments on this final plan are the same as comments the City made on the referral of the sketch plan. The City supports efforts to provide affordable housing options to people in the area. Longmont also supports the fact that this PUD does not propose any direct access to SH119. The application says that there will be berms, fencing, and signage. However, the application provides no details about these aspects of the development. The City assumes Weld County will require the applicant to detail this information at the appropriate stage of the review process. Improving the visual image along SH 119, an important travel corridor for both our jurisdictions, is important to the City of Longmont. In our comments on the Weld County Comprehensive Plan update, the City has talked about the value of planning school sites, park sites, collector streets, and other public facilities in advance of development. We respectfully suggest that Weld County may want to first locate such facilities in this area to accommodate this and other potential development. I trust that Weld County will find these comments useful in your review. If you have any questions about this referral response, please call Froda Greenberg at 651-8330. Thank you again for the opportunity to comment on this application.

This District concurs with the development as proposed, subject to the following: 1. Granting of a 20 -foot sewer easement along the south side of this project for the extension of the District's 12 -inch trunk line by the Developer. As shown on the Sanitary Sewer Plan, sheet 10 of 23, it is located within the south 50 -foot setback. It is not shown on the Filing Plat. 2. Dedicating the 12 -inch sewer line, to be constructed by the Developer, to the District for continued operation and maintenance pursuant to District standards. The District will agree to an oversize (over 8 inch) rebate provision. 3. All 8 -inch laterals into the District's 12 -inch trunk line shall connect at a manhole. This requires either a respacing of manholes or one additional manhole. The east and west 8 -inch laterals connect at manholes as designed. The 6 -inch lateral taps are acceptable. are 4. Internal collection lines, the majority of which wee 6 -inch, remain the property of the Developer, who will be responsible for their continued operation and maintenance. 5. The developer grants to the District the unused capacity in the east and west 8 -inch laterals; however, capacity will be reserved in the west 8 -inch lateral for development immedi- ately to the West. The District will utilize this unused capacity for future development to the North, and the Developer must agree to carry said wastewater through its private lines within Longview Estates, free of charge and without liability recourse, subeject to upgradient loading and design being to accepted engin A ing practice. 952023 Mr. Todd Hodges Current Planner April 26, 1995 Page 2 6. Re Sanitary Sewer Plan, sheet 8 of 23, the northern segment of the East 8 -inch Trunk Line is shown at 0.07% grade. This is clearly in error, both in respect to the contours (8 feet) and the minimum allowable grade of 0.4% 7. While not a requirement, I urge that all internal system cleanouts be located on lot lines or within setbacks so they remain accessible. Most are so located. By copy, the Developer is hereby requested to affirm in writing to this District and to the Department of Planning Services, prior to County approval, that these conditions are acceptable.

Box 626 Mead, Colorado 80542 (303) 535-4477 April 20, 1995 Todd Hodges, Current Planner Department of Planning Services Weld County Administrative Offices 1400 N 17th Ave. Greeley, CO 80631 RE: McStain Enterprises, Inc., Planned Unit Development Sketch Plan S-378 Dear Todd: Thank you for the opportunity to review the additional information for the requested "PUD Sketch Plan" for McStain Enterprises, Inc. I remain concerned with the proposed PUD that it is the wrong use for the property and will require extra ordinary services from the County. High density development is not appropriate in the rural areas of the county. The development would be more appropriately located within an existing municipality that can provide the services necessary for this concentration of residents. If it is developed in the County, it is highly unlikely that it will ever be incorporated into a surrounding municipality and remain a drain upon the County's limited resources. Finally, the proposal is contrary to the provisions of our comprehensive plan. Our comprehensive plan suggests that low density residential development is more appropriate as a buffer to the single family developments that will radiate from Longmont. I suggest that the Board of Commissioners give serious consideration to the down -zoning of this property and the entire Del Camino MUD. That said, I will attempt to offer some constructive comments on the plan. Illustrations # 3 and #4 are obvious attempts to show a lower quality, older mobile home park as contrasted to illustration #5. Although illustration #5 depicts what will probably develop, it is not what the text of the application suggests will be the lot arrangements and building orientation. These are narrow lots, averaging about 50', although a few are as wide as 80'. The homes illustrated in the proposal are 40' to 78' in length (front door orientation). These homes will not fit on the lots with the front door facing the street. I question the honesty of the proposal when it contains these obviously misleading statements and graphics. I am concerned with the lack of parking. I believe that even in the market range set for these units, there will likely be two or more cars per lot. Narrow lots with double-wides means that there will only be single wide parking. Although there may be space for two cars on the single wide parking strip, that means shuffling the cars before the innermost car can leave. The "concept plan" (and not changed in the "current plan") calls for three off-street parking spots per homesite. The "covenants" indicates there will be only two off-street parking spots. This is again inconsistent and misleading. I applaud the intent to restrict buildings to multi -section homes with pitched roofs and site -built style siding. I would feel more comfortable if the units were required to be modulars as opposed to mobiles and required to be placed on permanent perimeter foundations. The covenants state that the ,o23 entrance must face the street, however all drawings of lots and homes on the lots contained in the submittal, indicate a narrow end to the street orientation. I am disturbed by this apparent inconsistency in their statements and their design. Also, there are a number of easements depicted on the maps. The 50' gas line easement appears to cut through the middle of several lots. In addition, the 20' easements between many of the lots will restrict the location of homes on the lots. These factors indicated to me that this "mobile home park" will not be developed precisely as is being represented to the Commission. What other misrepresentations are they making to the staff and Commission For the above stated concerns, the Town continues to object to a granting of the proposed Planned Unit Development. It would be more appropriately developed within the City of Longmont where they have local control over the development. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed division.

COLORADO Todd Hodges, Current Planner May 8, 1995 To Date From Subject: Don Carroll, Administrative Coordinator S-378, McStain Enterprises telt I have reviewed the application and have the following comments: It appears that the emergency entrance could handle at least 1/2 of the traffic volume from the subdivision. Would this be used as an access point or block off? The applicant is indicating that this emergency entrance would be 20' wide. If this is an entrance, it needs to be widened to at least to 24' wide. If this is an entrance, it needs to be widened to at lease to 24' wide with adequate shoulders and drainage to accommodate the volume of this access. The applicant needs to place on the mylar a typical cross-section of both WCR 3.5 and the interior road section showing width of right-of-way, width and depth of pavement, base and shoulders. The applicant is indicating as improvements for Phase I of the PUD that the developer agrees to pave two lanes of WCR 3.5 from the PUD development's southern access to St. Hwy 119, approximately 400'. In addition, a paved auxiliary lane should be provided on WCR 3.5 between the primary access to Longview and St. Hwy 119 to separate right and left turn lanes. On the improvement for Phase II, the developer agrees to pave two lanes of the portion of WCR 3.5 extending south from the Northernmost property line of the PUD to the improvements (at the south access entrance mentioned in Phase I) approximately 2000' and complete the paved eastbound left turn lane on St. Hwy. 119 west of the intersection at WCR 3.5. I have reviewed the drainage report for Longview PUD from Nelson Engineers of Greeley and find no conflict with the reports or calculations. cc: Commissioner Webster S-378, McStain Enterprises plan6.fc 952023 STATE OF COLORADO COLORADO GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Division of Minerals and Geology Department of Natural Resources 1313 Sherman Street, Room 715 Denver, Colorado 80203 Phone (303) 866-2611 FAX (303) 866-2461 May 16, 1995 Mr. Todd Hodges Department of Planning Services 1400 N 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Mr. Hodges: WELD COUNTY PLANNING p MAY 1 9 1995 EMU Re: Long View Planned Residential Community WE -95-0021 DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES Roy Romer Governor lames S.

".ft,'"" JUN 21996 IUUUn}UUU ECE0U We have reviewed the McStain Enterprises PUD Final Plan and offer the following comments: ACCESS Our office received a set of plans directly from Nelson Engineers on March 30, 1995 which details access improvements to Weld County Road 3.5 and to State Highway (SH) 119. We are working with Mr. Art Uhrich regarding the details of access. An access permit will be issued for all necessary improvements. A temporary access permit has been requested to authorize work in the county road access in order to install a culvert to drain the property prior to further work on the site. Nelson Engineer's submittal also provided a letter of explanation from Eugene Coppola addressing traffic study questions which I had posed to Mr. Uhrich. Mr. Coppola's explanation is sufficient and accepted. The 70' storage length which is included in the left deceleration lane (eastbound to northbound) is adequate for this development at full build -out and to accommodate the existing traffic to the county road. The County should note that as other properties develop north of SH 119 which will use this left turn lane, additional length will be required for storage. The traffic study projected a future volume of 270 left turns in the p.m. peak hour for an average peak hour of 178 left turns. 952023 Mr. Todd Hodges May 31, 1995 Page 2 McStain Enterprises It may be possible to reduce the ultimate left storage length if a signal is warranted in the future. The County and the applicant should note that the Department will not participate in any costs incurred for a future signal at such time as signal warrants are met and a signal is required. The Department of Transportation has plans for an overlay along SH 119 in this area during the spring of 1996. Even though no widening of the highway is planned at that time, I will work wit the applicant and the Department's engineering u it in order to coordinate the timing and costs of final asph It paving. It would be beneficial to both parties to co rdinate the completion of the final lift along SH 119 to include the widening for this access improvement. The Departmen will not participate in costs incurred to complete dirt work or other widening features, nor will the Department co er the costs of the final lift of pavement for those widenin s; however, it would make sense to coordinate the two highw y efforts.

Although I applaud efforts to provide affordable housing, I'm concerned that home buyers - typically young first-time buyers and retired households -- will buy into this project without realizing they will not own the land on which their "affordable homes" sit, and will have no guarantees or control over the land lease terms or costs, now or in the future. This is the situation at Arapahoe West Condos in Boulder. Residents there report that their land leases leaped 47.7% in one year, based on escalation clauses in their contacts allowing land fees to escalate with the current assessed market value of the land without the buildings, Some residents are now paying more for their land lease fee than for their mortgage. Home owners like these, and like mobile home park residents, can find themselves at the mercy of landowners whose only motives are profit. The Community Land Trust model is one way to preserve affordability over time and to ensure resident participation in decisions affecting the land. Another way to preserve affordability over time might be to retain public control over land lease terms and costs (e.g., require pining board or commission approval of any increases) so at least the residents would have recourse. At a minimum, the land lease should be subject to public review and scrutiny PRIOR to approval of the project, with a purpose of preserving affordabilti over time. Also, there should be disclosure requirements at the time of sale requiring prospective buyers to review the lease with an attorney PRIOR to purchase. 4593 N.

But if the land lease costs are not limited and/or controlled by somebody other than private parties interested only in profit, unwary LongView residents could be held hostage to longterm profiteering on ever -escalating land leases. So I urge you, when you discuss this development at your June 21, 1995, hearing, please safeguard the longterm good of the community and of these prospective home buyers, and require some guarantee to preserve affordability over time.
