INC November 18,1996 Weld County Dept. of Planning Services 1400 No. 17th Avenue Greeley, CO 80631 Re: Concerns of Case Number S-408 To Whom It May Concern, As Community Managers of Long View, situated at the Northwest corner of Hwy. 119 and Weld County Road 3 1/2, we have some concerns about the proposed Commercial Center that is being planned directly across the sweet from our Community. Our first and main concern is in regards to the additional traffic at the intersection of Hwy. 119 and WCR 3 1/2. This is the only entrance to our Community and as you know the speed limit along Hwy. 119 is 55 miles per hour. There has already been a serious traffic accident at this intersection, and with increased traffic entering and exiting the commercial center, we can foresee future problems. The safety of ow residents is our first and primary concern, especially with several school buses entering our Community each day. We are also concerned about the use of the commercial property. We understand the zoning of the property would permit automobile repair shops and businesses like that to be allowed. We are concerned about the noise, pollution and appearance of such businesses. We also believe the size of the sign proposed - 40 feet long - is too large for this area. The location along Hwy. 119 does not wan -ant a sign of that size, and would certainly distract from the rural residential nature of the neighborhood. Our last concern is about the future value of our resident's homes in our Community. When fully developed, we will be a community of 401 homes. With commercial property going in around us, we are very concerned as to the use of the property and the long term affect it will have on the home values. Weld County Planning Dept.

Lochhead Executive Director Michael B. Long Division Director Vicki Cowart State Geologist and Director In response to your request and in accordance with Senate Bill 35 (1972) I visited this property to review the plat. A Preliminary Geotechnical Engineering Report prepared by Terracon (December 1995) was included in the submittal. My comments are summarized below. 1) Soil. Soil at the site consists of windblown sediment and residuum of the Pierre Shale. The composition is largely clay with varying amounts of silt and sand.. Bedrock, which is described as sandstone, is present at depths ranging from 1.5 to 13.5 feet below ground surface. In this preliminary investigation, Terracon performed five swell/consolidation tests that indicate that the subsurface material has low swell potential but some capacity for hydrocompaction. Under these circumstances, Terracon's initial foundation recommendations of spread footings and straight shaft piers are appropriate, but foundation type should be finalized only after soil from each building envelope is analyzed. Five samples are too few to form a generalization concerning swell/consolidation properties. These characteristics should also be considered a factor in road design, as post -pavement settling or swell will add to maintenance costs. The shallow bedrock will make excavation a bit more difficult where it is encountered, but the weathered nature of the rock should somewhat reduce the problem. 2) Groundwater was present in eight of the 19 borings drilled, and possibly would have been found in other borings if the depths had been extended. In fact, as the subsurface investigation was performed in December, which is a dry time of year, it is almost certain that spring and summer precipitation will cause groundwater levels to rise, as will lawn irrigation and reduced evaporation due to paved areas. 970391 Vista Commercial Center, p.2 Although the proposed site development is commercial/industrial and therefore, not likely to include conventional basements, it is possible that some garden level offices will be planned. In these cases, the builder should definitely consider foundation drains in the building design. Water is the catalyst for soil expansion and consolidation, and therefore foundations should remain as dry as possible. Pumps for dewatering should be available during construction, as noted in the geotechnical report. 3) Grading. The area near the abandoned silo in the north -central part of the property is covered with alluvial fill material that will need considerable grading and homogenization to form a suitable construction subgrade. On a non -geologic note, future occupants may appreciate an effort to retain the mature trees in this area. This is pretty shadeless landscape. In summary, there are no geologic conditions that would prevent development of the site, but the recommendations in the geotechnical report should be followed and groundwater mitigation strategies should be planned. Please contact me if I can be of further assistance. Sincerely, Celia Greenman Geologist g70397 ,8 46 44 • :2 40 38 • • 36 • 34 32 • 30 . 23 26 24 22 20 • 13 14 • 17 1 ,Vr..,n < . ..

Notes: Attached is the preliminary recommendation from our department. There were questions brought up by staff regarding the sanitary sewer provisions and the public water. A note in the original sketch plan suggested that the E2 of the site could be provided for (which is fine since we are considering Phase 1), however, I cannot find any documentation regarding the water service. If you have any documentation you can provide, I will go ahead and include it as such when we go to the Planning Commission hearing. Otherwise, the recommendation should be pretty understandable.

NOV l3799& I am writing this letter in regard to the utility locations for a PUD called Vista Commercial Center, formerly known as Richardson PUD. Horizon Limited, the owner, and I met with the Weld County Utility Board on October 24, 1996 and they requested that this subdivision be congruent with Weld County Easement Ordinances. Ordinance 10.6.1 and 10.6.2 state that there shall be a 15 foot easement along all right-of-ways and boundary lines as well as a 10 foot, 20 foot total, easement along all side and rear lot lines. Horizon Limited wishes to build the infrastructure of this PUD only. The current plat configuration only suggests the minimum lot size and the layout is intended to allow an organization to buy one or more lots for their facilities. If we were to have utilities along every lot line, and an organi7ation wanted two adjacent lots, a utility line could split the property and may need to be relocated for optimum use of the site. We need to avoid this situation. Included are drawings of the site and of the `Utility Location Detail Section'. To the north is US Highway 119, to the south is the city of Longmont landfill, to the east are two properties already being served by utilities, then the St. Vrain River ,and finally to the west is the second phase of Vista Commercial Center. Due to the isolation of Vista Commercial Center there is no need for the continuance of any utility beyond this site. Therefore, we would like all utilities to be placed in a 15 foot easement along the road ROW with designated areas available to loop any utility. If this utility location does not work with your engineered service, please provide the engineering calculations and renderings so that we can allot easements to sustain congruent conveyance for the utility. An example of the situation in question is, if an organi7ation was to buy lots 1, 2, and 15 of Block 2. According to current County ordinance these lots would be split by easements which would need to be vacated, and any utility located on the border of these lots would need to be relocated. As you can see, the placement of utilities along the front of each lot would eliminate any confines due to utilities. Phone 970/356-6362 • Fax 970/356-6486 sonata Page Two October 28. 1996 Public Service Co. of CO In the Subdivision Regulations, any lot (or lots) owners will have to go through an approval process. At this time the 10 foot side and rear easements may be dedicated. This would ultimately provide the 20 foot total easement required by the County. I would like a letter from you on letter head stating that you 'can provide service to the site in the designated easements along all rights -of -ways and boundary lines according to the Utility Location Detail Section for Vista Commercial Center.' This would help us to gain approval for this PUD and keep the properties use and availability intended by the Owners. I appreciate your cooperation in this matter and anticipate hearing from you very soon. If you have any question please contact me at 970/356-6362. Sincerely Cti'/Lt� Tony Evans, E.I.T.

Boyes Fire Prevention Specialist Mountain View Fire Protection District 9119 County Line Road Longmont CO 80501 SEP 2 6 1996 RECEIVED Re: Vista Commercial Center (Richardson PUD) PEC #119 Dear Mr. Boyes: We appreciate your response to receiving the calculations and comments from the fire hydrant test done on State Highway 119 on September 10, 1996. We have been aware, and concerned about the restricted capacity of the dead-end 16" line since we began to help the developer move forward with this project. We discussed with David Sample, of Left Hand Water District, a possible sequence of events to get the water tank constructed and the main extension connected into the dead- end line. It appears possible that the tank and line could be in service by the Fall of 1997. If this is the case, this will likely coincide with the request for Certificate of Occupancies on any new buildings in Vista Commercial Center. I will appreciate your input to my immediate concern of what can be constructed in the interim...what type, and how many square feet of development can occur in Vista Commercial Center prior to this additional source of water supply. Obviously, this would be based on the existing water supply and Left Hand Water District's ability to provide fire protection capacities during a needed event. Our primary concern is satisfying all of the requirements necessary to develop this property. Elements of this concern are the meeting the requirements Mountain View Fire Protection District will have in order to adequately serve any portion of the proposed development, and making sure there is adequate fire protection so that the insurers for lot developers will have their needs met as well.
