A copy of the comments received from U.S. West is enclosed with this letter. 2. The city's Mapping Department has made the following comments: a. What is Tract A to be used for? Is this a utility, access, drainage easement, or what? b. There is a statement near the top and center of the subdivision plat that describes a 10' easement as a 1110' telephone easement". Shouldn't this be a 10' utility easement? C. There is a wrong bearing in the legal description. d. What do the three circled numbers mean? e. There is a reference to Tract B in the legal description. Where and what is Tract B? Please contact Jim'Hoff or Wally Muscott at 221-6605 if you have questions about these comments on the plat. 3. Mark Taylor of the Water/Wastewater Department has said that he has forwarded his comments on a set of red -lined plans to your engineers. The red -lined plans should be returned to the City with your revisions. Mark can be reached at 221-6681. 4. The Light i Power Department has said that one of two options will have to occur for electric and gas services to be installed on this site: a. A 13' wide utility easement must be provided on either side of the private drive, or; 281 North College Avenue • P.O. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 b. Tract A must be designated as a "blanket utility easement". Bruce Vogel is your contact person if you have questions about utility services. Bruce can be reached at 221-6700. 5. Fire hydrants must be located within 400' of all lots and shown on the utility plans. 6. Iron Gate Drive should be a minimum of 36' wide if parking is to be allowed on both side of the street. Approved "No Parking - Fire Lane" signs must be provided and curbs must be painted red in the appropriate places if the street is to be 24' wide. There must be information (general notes) on the Site Plan addressing the parking issue. 7. A copy of the comments received from the stormwater Utility is enclosed with this letter. Basil Hamdan is your contact person if you have questions about storm drainage. Basil can be reached at 221-6589. 8. The Engineering Department has the following comments to offer: Plat a. Clarify the ownership and maintenance of Tract A. Also, it is not clear if Tract A includes or excludes the lots. b. Remove references to street dedication in the Dedication Statement since the streets are to be private within the P.U.D. boundaries. C. The lots do not extend to the private streets. Is this really what the applicant wants? Suggest allowing enough room on the lots to add patios, sunrooms, etc., to avoid having to vacate easements or deed parts of Tract A, in the future, as units get built and changes to the building footprints are made. Utility Plans d. Need handicapped access ramps along the internal sidewalk. The red -lined plans showing the locations have been sent to your engineers. e. Need stationing of parking, radii on walks. f. Need details of parking areas, drive widths, radii. Kerrie Ashbeck is your contact person if you have questions about the engineering comments. Kerrie can be reached at 221- 6750. 9. The parkland fees are currently $779 per dwelling unit and will be collected at the time of issuance of building permits. 10. This development is responsible for building the sidewalk on the north side of Arbor Avenue. The walk should clearly shown on the Site and Landscape Plans. 11. Berming should be considered along Horsetooth Road to provide privacy and screening to and from the lots in this area. Are there berms existing with the other adjacent developments? 12. There may be some roof restrictions required that would be related to storm drainage for this site. If so, then this information must be included on the Site Plan. Please contact Basil Hamdan at 221-6589 to discuss this issue. 13. The landscaping along the Horsetooth Road street frontage should be consistent with the treatment that exists with Four Seasons, Fourth Filing to the east. 14. The architectural intent and building elevations for this project were reviewed with the Preliminary P.U.D. If changes to the buildings are intended then the building elevations must be submitted for review with the Final P.U.D. 15. Information about the lots that are in compliance with the Solar orientation ordinance must be included on the Site Plan and the final subdivision plat. This includes a solar lot symbol on each lot in compliance, the number of lots in compliance compared with the total number of lots, and the percentage of lots in compliance.
