RE: Fairway II, South Ridge Greens P.U.D.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
In December of 1983, Fairway II was planned for thirty-two (32)
condominium units. Each one was in a duplex configuration with sixteen
(16) building sites provided on a private drive adjacent to Front Nine
Drive, South Ridge Greens P.U.D. Since that time, the market has demon-
strated its preference for individual patio homes. We have, in fact,
constructed a patio home as a condominium, and we can continue to do so
in accordance with our previous submittal.
It would be more appropriate and less cumbersome if we were able
to develop Tract C, Fairway II, as Townhomes. Accordingly, we have
submitted our plan for same and trust that we will receive your pos-
itive response.
CJB:SM
Sincerely yours,

Re: 1st Replat of Fairway Two at Southridge Greens P.U.D., Fort Collins,
Colorado.
Fairway Two at Southridge Greens was originally planned for 16 duplexes
(32 condominium units). The 1st Replat of Fairway Two intends to reduce
the total number of units to 24.
The following summarizes the breakdown in units for the 1st Replat of Fair-
way Two including existing units;
Existing condominium duplex - 4 8 units
Existing condominium patio home - 1 i unit
Proposed Townhome duplex - 3 6 units
Proposed Townhome patio home - 9 9 units
Total 24 units
The reduction in density reduces the pervious areas for units and driveways
considerably. The total anticipated runoff from Fairway Two due to the new
proposed plan will be less than that determined in the original drainage report
for Fairway Two which was prepared by Engineering Professionals, Inc, in
1983. Runoff coefficients of 0.50 for a 2 year storm and 0.63 for a 100 year
storm for Basins Al and A2 were used by Engineering Professionals, (see
attached grading and drainage plan). With the new plan for Fairway Two
the runoff coefficients become 0.36 and 0.41 for a 2 year and 100 year storm
respectively (see attached). All other parameters stay the same. Therefore
anticipated runoff is reduced.
If you have questions concerning the 1st replat of Fairway Two and its
effects on storm runoff, please call our office.
Sincerely,

Re: Request for variance from street design standards for the First
Replat of Fairway Two at Southridge Greens P.U.D.
In 1983, Fairway Two at Southridge Greens P.U.D. was approved for 32
condominium units (16 duplexes). All streets, private drive and utilities
were completed in 1984. Four duplex units and one patio home have been
constructed to date.
The First Replat of Fairway Two will result in a subdivision of the remaining
Fairway Two property into 15 lots with townhome units. The existing 24'
wide private drive is intended to remain as a private drive.
The private drive is typically 24' in width with a cross slope of 2% from
the edge of pavement on one side of the drive, to a 4' valley pan on the
other side of the drive for a portion of the length and vertical curb for
a portion of the length.
The 24' wide private drive as constructed does not meet current city stan-
dards for streets. This letter serves to formally request that the drive,
as currently constructed, be approved as a private drive for the proposed
land use change. In order to reconstruct the street to meet city standards,
it would require removal of most of the concrete work and approximately
one half of the existing pavement. City power and light utilities would
require relocation and some water and sewer utilities would need to be
modified. Since the proposed resubdivision will result in only 15 lots,
street reconstruction to meet current city street standards would be a
tremendous economic burden. The maintenance of the private drive would
remain the responsibility of the Southridge homeowners association.
Staff has indicated that the major issue, related to the 24' private drive
as a part of a subdivision with single family lots, is onstreet parking.
Parking on the private drive could interfere with emergency vehicle access
to portions of the site.
Currently, there is a section of the private drive between the two (2)
driveways into the site, which is widened to facilitate parking for 10 vehicles.
BuCain Corporation, developer of Southridge Greens, proposes additional
offstreet parking which would be located at various locations along the
private drive on the east and north sides of the drive. If fourteen (14)
additional parking spaces are provided, over and above the driveway and
garage parking, a total parking space to unit ratio of 5 can be obtained.
This would include 2 spaces per garage, 2 spaces per driveway, and 1
offstreet space per unit.

Standard City of Fort Collins "No Parking" signs will be provided on the west
and south sides of the private drive where there is no concrete curb or
valley pan.
Thank you for your consideration.
