From: Wayne Howard Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2014 1:47 PM To: Chris Gathman; Jennifer Petrik Cc: Michelle Martin Subject: RE: USR14-0034 drainage comments Chris, I have reviewed the submittals here are my comments: 1. The site plan indicates that the water quality feature (WQF) is also a retention pond but yet it is stated that it will discharge. This would not be a retention pond and Weld County does not permit retention ponds unless no other options exist. I think this should be called out as a detention pond. The Drainage Narrative also references retention. 2. The Detention/WQF pond is substantially oversized for the volume shown in the calculations. The problem with this is the WQF was calculated based upon a 40hr drain time and storm water is not to be held by State Statutes for longer than 72 hrs. They need to verify that the water will not be detained longer than 72 hrs with this over sizing. 3. I see an existing 12" pipe located NE of the existing house called out that is suppose to remain and be used as the pond outlet pipe but I cannot verify by the drawings or call outs that the culvert will actually drain the WQF pond at the desirable rate with supporting elevations. If this is not the pipe to drain the WQF then what will allow it to drain? 4. The WQF should be labeled (No Build/No Storage) 5. We will need the Drainage Narrative letter that waives them from the full drainage report requirements signed and stamped by a Colo. P.E. Eventually they will need to probably apply for a grading permit and we will be needing a sign and stamped erosion control plan as well. I am happy to discuss any of these items with them if they need any other information. Wayne Howard, P.E. Development Engineer Development Review Division Department of Planning Services P.O.

The subject property is located inside the Town's Growth Management Area (GMA) and is designated as Heavy Industrial on Windsor's Land Use Plan Map. Given that this proposal is located within the GMA, is contiguous to the Town's corporate limits, will utilize town utilities, and generate truck traffic that will access Town streets, annexation is warranted at this time. However, in an effort to work with the prospective buyers to allow development to occur prior to annexation,the Town has created an Agreement for Municipal Services and Agreement to Annex("Pre-Annexation Agreement")that the prospective buyers have agreed to in concept. Based on the aforementioned information,the Planning Commission recommends that Weld County approve the USR subject to the following condition: 1. The property owner shall execute the Pre-Annexation Agreement prior to beginning site development. I have attached the Pre-Annexation Agreement and staff memorandum pertaining to this project. Thank you for the opportunity to review this proposal and please let me know if you have any questions.
