Should locate existing 75 foot easement along West property line. 2. Office uses are not presently. -a proper use of the commercial allottment. Would recommend that if the applicant wishes to pursue offices, that they request an appropriate zoning classification - BL or BP. 3. The alignment of Overland Trail extension has not been finalized. The applicant should work with staff to develop a suitable alignment. 4. The applicant should seriously consider in developing the site plan energy conservation and application of solar access methods. 5. The applicants should carefully consider impact of locating high density uses on the west perimeter of the property and its impact on encouraging further development to the west. 6. Access points should be provided to the east and south. City of Fort Collins December 5, 1 S183 Page 2 STORM DRAINAGE; The pervious and impervious ground areas are not being changed signifi- cantly from the current approved plans for the project. Therefore, storm runoff rates and volumes previously designed should still be adequate. From our experience with P.M.'s in the past few years, it has become apparent that overland flow is a more economically maintained system than underground Storm sewers. The P.U.D. can permit the natural surface tex- ture to be retained in areas where it is most beneficial in the control of runoff. Open space, in a size and location most suitable for storm water detention, is a controllable aspect of the P.U.D., as is obvious in Dixon Creek. We are proposing to replace all underground stormwater conduits in Tracts 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7 with overland flow systems. Of course, street culverts and detention pond outlet pipes will remain. This proposal will allow a system maintainable by the homeowner's. They are not prepared with a means to maintain underground pipes, but are well aware of the greenway mainte- nance requirements. If this is an acceptable proposal, please let us know and we will revise grading and drainage plans in this portion of the project for your review and acceptance. Upon an indication that the site plan as revised is acceptable at the staff level, we are prepared to modify the utility plan. We will show parking and sidewalks as indicated on the site plans. Sidewalks on Drake Road will be shown as 7' wide adjacent to the curb for 75' from the intersections. They will then detach from the curb through a minimum 60' reverse curve and transition to 5' width. Overland Trail sidewalks will be similar except, because It is a major arterial, the walk will be continuous 7' wide.

We would appreciate your prompt response to this letter in order to provide sufficient time for preparation of drawings for consideration of the January Planning Board hearing.

COLORADO 80522 1303) 484-4220 PLANNING and DEVELOPMENT DEPARTNUNT EXT.652 December 21, 1983 Mr. Eldon Ward CITYSCAPE URBAN DESIGN 419 Canyon, Suite 300 Fort Collins, Colorado 80521 Dear Eldon: Staff has reviewed the proposed amendment to Dixon Creek PUD. The following comments pertain to both the proposed amendment area, as well as the remainder of the site, since the original plan will expire in the near future and the proposed density is being calculated based on the entire site: 1. Final resolution of the extension of public sewer to service the site is necessary. 2. Building setbacks of 15 feet are needed to install utilities outside paved or concreted areas. These areas need to be designated utility easements. 3. An additional fire hydrant is needed in condo area 1. 4. All lot dimensions need to be shown on the site plan. All building envelope dimensions and distances to property lines must be shown on the site plan. 5. Tennis courts need to be within a building envelope and the height and materials of the proposed fence need to be specified. 6. Typical dimensions for compact stalls need to be indicated. Some stalls appear to scale less than 15 feet in length. 7. Motorcycle parking should be provided in the condo areas. 8. The attorr.ey's certification statement needs to be revised. 9. Calculations specifying the proposed energy savings need to be provided to evaluate the density credit. 10. Additional landscaping should be provided along the Drake frontage of the open space tract near Lot 29. Mr. Eldon Ward From: Sherry Albertson -Clark December 21, 1983 Page Two 11. A full 19 foot stall (or 0 feet) is required behind garages (page 4 - building 10 area). 12. Continuation of sidewalks to the end of Skimmerhorn Court would provide more direct access to the volleyball courts and picnic shelter. 13. A pedestrian link from Pasquinel Drive to the interior open space area near the volleyball court would provide a more useable active open area for patio home area 3. 14. The landscaping for the active open area at Drake and Pasquinel (pages 7 and 9) are somewhat different. 15. Buildings 6 and 7 of townhome area 3 are not within 150 foot of fire access, since the units' addresses would be on Skimmerhorn. 16. The number of parking spaces at the west end of Skimmerhorn Court are not consistent on pages 6 and 7. 17. At the 3rd parking lot entrance west of Pasquinel Drive into condo area 1 (page 8), the first parking stall opposite the parking lot entrance should be deleted to avoid congestion at the area's entrance. 18. Setbacks between parking areas and sidewalks along Overland Trail are virtually non-existent, providing minimal opportunities for screening from a future 6-lane arterial. 19. Additional landscaping should be provided to buffer the active open area along Overland Trail and Skimmerhorn Street. 20. It is not clear how the typical landscaping proposed for around the townhome and condo units relates to landscaping shown on the overall landscaping plans. Who would be responsible for the installation of such landscaping? Are these plants included in the planting schedule? 21. The distribution of active open space for the number of units in condo area 1 is disproportionate (i.e., 8% of active open space for 35% of total d.u.'s). 22. Sidewalks in condo area 2 should be adjacent to parking stalls without any space between (page 10). 23. Landscaping along Skimmerhorn Street (along active open area) and Pasquinel Drive (pages 9 and 11) is minimal. 24. Page 3 indicates manual irrigation of landscaped islands, while page 1 shows automatic irrigation systems. Which is correct? Manual irrigation of so many areas would be difficult. 25. The active open area on sheet 11 along Overland Trail needs to be defined. Mr. Eldon Ward From: Sherry Albertson -Clark December 21, 1983 Page Three 26. The following items on the Density Chart do not appear to earn credit for the site: a. Neighborhood park, community park or facility. b. Off -site open space dedication. Since 80°0 of the units are within 650 feet of the transit route, the site earns 8% rather than 10%. 27. A traffic impact study showing impact of new density is required. 28. Patio home garages should have a full 19 foot stall behind them. A note should be placed on the site plan specifying this requirement. 29. Standard curb cuts need to be shown, rather than curb returns. 30. All streets and r-o-w's must be dimensioned (see Dumire Court, Seccumb Court, Yorkshire Street, Lucinda Court, Brumbaugh Drive, Pasquinel Drive, Skimmerhorn Street and Court, Zendt Court, Clemma Court, McKeag Drive). 31. Sidewalks need to be dimensioned. The sidewalk on Drake must be redesign- ed to current City standards. Handicapped ramps must be shown at inter- sections and in parking lots. The walk on Skimmerhorn (page 8) is attach- ed and needs correcting near the Overland intersection. 32. Easements need to be shown on the site plan. 33. All cul-de-sac islands need to be dimensioned. 34. All 900 parking along streets needs to be concrete to the property line. 35. The location of "No Parking" signs needs to be indicated. 36. Parking stalls near building 7-D and building 1-C (page 2) and those east of Pasquinel on page 6 are too close to garages. Compact stalls could gain additional space. 37. Backup areas need dimensions. The 5 foot backup east of Yorkshire, near McKeag is too close to the street. Shifting garages east could gain additional space. 38. Walks in townhome areas from garages and parking stalls should be shown. 39. Edge treatment of parking areas utilizing the 2-foot overhang needs to be specified (i.e., curb and gutter, wood timbers, etc.). 40. Radii in the condo area 1 parking lot do not meet fire requirements. The islands need to be cut back. 41. ThS condo area 2 parking lot south of Pasquinel needs to be designed with 90 intersections for fire access. Mr. Eldon Ward From: Sherry Albertson -Clark December 21, 1983 Page Four 42. The curb cut south of Skimmerhorn on Pasquinel must be at a 900 inter- section with Pasquinel. Parking stalls in this area should either be all standard or compact, rather than mixed. Fifteen copies of the revised site plan reflecting these comments must be s ,=.tt., to t� i s off ce by Monday, January 9, 1984. By Monday, January 16, 1934, coltre�' site plans and 82"xll" PMT's must be submitted. If you have any -e din 'nese comments, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Light and Power requests blanket utility easements in open space areas. Service will not be run to units with more than four units. In some cases, the developer may need to run the utility services. An additional 6-feet is needed along both sides of the 24-foot drive. Additional costs will be paid by the developer if utilities are installed under asphalt. 2. Public Service Company requires a 15-foot clear setback behind sidewalks. 3. The first construction phase will be in the northeast corner of the site. Water lines in this area must be looped or oversized. 4. Mountain Bell would like blanket utility easements in open space areas. 5. A preliminary utility layout will be submitted for Water and Sewer to review.

Jensen, President Jensen Homes P.O. Box 1007 Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 RE: DIXON CREEK PUD AMENDMENT (CASE #144-80B) - SIX MONTH EXTENSION REQUEST Dear Mr. Jensen: Staff has reviewed the above referenced matter and has the following comments: 1. City staff can only grant successive six month extensions to PUD's. After the second six month extension, the matter is brought before the Planning and Zoning Board. This extension request would be for six months from the date of approval. 2. At this time, Staff cannot grant a six month extension until the plan is brought up to current City standards. Particular items are as follows. 3. Sidewalks are now required on both sides of all streets. 4. Pedestrian access ramps are required at all corners. 5. A seven foot walk along arterial streets if it is attached. 6. Current site design includes medians in arterials. 7. No patterned concrete is allowed in public streets. 8. Handicap spaces need ramps and need to be shown. 9, A street width of 36' is required where single family dwellings double -front the street. DEVELOPMENT, PLANNING DIVISION 10. Public Service Co. of Colorado requires a 15' wide space between front of buildings and back of sidewalks to allow for installation and maintenance of water boxes, power and natural gas outside of paved areas. This 15' space needs to be dedicated as street right-of-way and or utility easement. These items need to be addressed and shown on updated plans before an extension request can be granted. Please submits these plans on October 29, 1985 for review by City staff. A decision will be made sometime in December as to the status of this extension request. If you have any questions concerning these engineering comments, please contact Bonnie Tripoli in our office. If you have further comments or questions concerning this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

BOX 5SU, fUKI UULLIfNJ, LULUKAUU bvDGG rn -to-t-k44U EXT. 655 Mr. Eldon Ward ZVFK Architects/Planners 218 W. Mountain Ft. Collins, CO 80521 Dear Eldon: Staff has reviewed the final site and landscape plans submitted for Dixon Creek and has the followng comments to make: Building setbacks from rear of sidewalks or curbs along all streets must be +^' at least 15-feet to allow for utility installation. This space msut be desig- nated as a utility easement or a combination of utility easement and dedicated right-of-way. Fifteen foot easements are also needed along Drake Road and Overland Trail. A repay will be due for the water line in Drake Road. 2. Cul-de-sac bulbs must be posted as "No Parking" areas. The Fire Authority tt OP _ has requested several fire hydrant relocations. Contact me regarding these ` locations. 3. Garages in the townhome areas must be in building envelopes. Patio home lots must have lot: line and building envelope dimensions shown. For clarification, the property line should be indicated along all streets. 4. Building envelopes in the condominium and townhome areas must have dimensions to at least two property lines shown. 5. Any roof overhang or projection beyond a lot line or building envelope must be in an easement which specifically mentions the type of projection and the limits of the projection allowed in the easement. 6. Trash enclosures must be shown and the composition of these enclosures specified. 7. Are "identity structures" signs? If so, they must comply with the Sign Code. 8. Fencing behind units in multi -family areas must not interfere with the 150- foot fire requirement. Mr. Eldon Ward ZVFK Architects/Planner,- October 21, 1981 Page Two 9. "Venneford Drive" must be changed to "Yorkshire" or approval to change "Yorkshire" must be obtained. The island shown at this street's intersection with Drake Road must be deleted. 10. To facilitate addressing, "Michener" and "Seccomb" Courts must be one name. All units in c:omdominium and townhome areas that access off of private drives will be given one address. The developer will be responsible for numbering individual units in these areas. 11. Dimensions for cul-de-sacs and parking areas must be shown. 12. Patterned concrete, if used, must be carried throughout the entire intersection. These partially concreted areas cause maintenance and drainage problems. The site plan should also show concrete -surfaced curb cuts from flowline to property line. 13. Islands in cul-de-sacs must be provided with drip irrigation or drainage structures. 14. A "No Parking" side must be designated on all 28-foot streets. This should be on the side where sidewalks are located. 15 Why are 28-foot streets not centered within the right-of-way? A variance for this must be requested. 16. Temporary cul-de-sacs must be provided on "Yorkshire" and "McKeag." 17. Queing spaces behind garages in townhome areas must be 19-feet long or short enough to discourage overhang into the access drive (i.e., 4-feet or less). Of particular concern are the garages in townhome Area 4 that access off of Pasquinel Drive and any other area where overhang could interfere with fire access. 18. It was staff's understanding that a provision for a public trail along Dixon Creek would be included, rather than in the area south of Skimmerhorn Street. Please clarify your position on this. 19. Common open space areas need to be delineated on the site plan. 20. Lighting must: be provided in the multi -family area parking lots. 21. Typical landscaping 'schemes within townhome and flat envelopes need to be shown. 22. Several parking spaces in condominium Area 1 appea;.r to encroach on the sidewalk. The parking areas that are parallel to Overland Trail in this area are not adequately screened from the street. 23. The type of ground cover and irrigation of common open space areas needs to be specified. Mr. Eldon Ward ZVFK Architects/Planners October 21, 1981 Page Three Ten copies of the in this office by November 9, 1981. feel free to call Si ncerely, 'revised site plan addressing these comments need to be received November 2, 1981.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 Dear Sherry, We have made revisions to our site and landscape plans in response to staff comments on Dixon Creek final P.U.D. Our specific responses are as follcws: 1. The requested larger easements along Drake Road and Overland Trail have been added. Easements along all internal streets have been modified to be consistant with those shown on the approved preliminary street cross sections. 2. The private cul-de-sacs in the townhome areas have been noted as no parking except in designated spaces. 3. The garages, multi -family envelopes and patio home envelopes are done according to systems acceptable to and requested by the Building Department. 4. For additional clarity, more notes and dimensions have been added to the building envelopes in the multi -family areas. 5. A note covering eaves and access for maintenance and utilities on patio home lots has been added to the site plans. 6. A note specifying minimum treatment of trash enclosures has been added to the plan. 7. The identity structures will comply with the sign code as noted on the site plan. 8. A note on fencing restrictions relating to fire access has been added. 9. The street name and intersection design have been revised as requested. 10. "Michener Court" has been changed to "Seccomb Court". 11. Exact design and dimensions of public cul-de-sacs are included in the utility plans. The parking areas are also dimensioned on our site plans. 12. Patterned concrete crosswalks have been eliminated on Yorkshire as requested. 13. Islands in cul-de-sacs will be irrigated. 14. A "No Parking" side has been designated on the 28' streets. 15. The 28' local streets are off set in the right-of-way (exactly as approved in the preliminary street cross sections) to leave equal landscaped right-of-way and easement on both sides. A variance has been granted. 16. A temporary cul-de-sac has been shown on Yorkshire. This cul- de-sac would be required for emergency access only if townhome area #4 were built out before the street is extended south. As we discussed, there is no real need for a temporary cul-de-sac on "McKeag". 17. Driveways and garages have been amended as requested. 18. On June 24, 1981, 1 met with Randy Balok of Parks and Recreation. After looking at the area wide trail system it was our mutual agreement that the trail would function better at the location shown on our final site plans. 19. We have now indicated active open spaces and their areas on site and landscape plans. 20. Lighting will be provided in parking areas. Specific locations of lights will be determined upon application for building permits. A note to that effect has been added to the plan. 21. Typical close -in landscape treatments for the various building types Has been illustrated. Please note that this is a commit- ment to a minimum level and general approach to this portion of landscape treatment. Because of differing building orientation and for• the sake of variety, specific species and minor details will vary in actual installations. - 2 - 22. Curbs in the condominium areas are placed to act as wheel stops. Walks are set back to avoid conflicts with car overhangs. More notes, dimensions, and landscaping have been added to our plans. 23. Notes covering turf grasses and irrigation systems have been added to landscape plans. Ten copies of our revised plans are attached. We are anticipating being on the consent agenda for the January 25th Planning and Zoning Board Meeting.. Thank you for your service in the review of this plan.
