Re: Miramont Self Storage
Dear Ms. Wamhoff:
Enclosed are 2 copies of the Final Drainage Report, 4 copies of the Construction Plans and
the completed 'information Sheet For Development Agreements". The off -site easement will
come from Sear Brown and the Landscape Plan and Site Plan will come from Cityscape.
Following are the responses to the Stormwater Utility comments:
1. Sub -basin delineations have been shown on the Drainage Map for design points 7
and 8 Flows are also shown in the runoff table on the map.
2. There is adequate separation between the storm sewer and sanitary service This is
shown on the profile on sheet 5 of the Construction Plans.
3 The design of the access road for the office building has been designed by the
Miramont Office Park development to the north. Their drainage report has been
included in the accompanying drainage report and the correct spot elevations are
shown on our Grading plan. It is the responsibility of Miramont Office Park to
construct this driveway.
4. The cross-section for design point 8 is now shown on the Drainage map and the
Grading Plan.
5 The Erosion Control cost estimate is now correct.
6. Sub -basin B has been broken up into a sub -basin that drains to the property to the
south and one that drains to the street Also a separate map showing the relationship
of the existing berm along the south property line to the proposed berm along the
south property line has been shown on a separate map within the Final drainage
Report.
7. Supporting topography has been included as the Offsite Drainage Map.
8 The easement for the north access road has been provided.
Following are the responses to the Stormwater Utility comments:
Plat
1 We were unable to find evidence of this easement, therefore we are dedicating it with
this plat and have included a signature block for US West
Utility Plans

pond has been shown correctly on both sheets 3 and 4.
2 The self storage driveway does indeed contains 15' radius curb returns. The

3 The sidewalk is now shown as 6 feet wide and the driveway width of 24 feet is shown
on sheet 5
4 Details have been added as requested and the driveway details have been modified
to show curb returns with pedestrian ramps as opposed to driveway cuts

MIRAMONT SELF STORAGE
PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PUD
STATEMENT OF PLANNING OBJECTIVES
December 20, 1996
This proposal comprises a self storage facility, a residential unit as an accessory use
to the storage facility, and a multi -tenant office building on approximately 5.6 acres at the
southwest corner of OakRidge Drive and Boardwalk Drive; and is designed to complement the
adjacent Harmony Market PUD, and the Miramont residential communities. Construction will
be phased, with Lot 1, the self storage facility, constructed first. Employment at this site is
estimated at up to 25-L upon completion of the office building.
As established with earlier filings at Harmony Market, Auto Related or Roadside
Commercial uses such as the self storage units are appropriate at this location, and consistent
with the applicable Land Use Policies of the City of Fort Collins, including those policies
promoting maximum utilization of land within the city; discouraging commercial development
from gaining primary access from College Avenue; giving preferential consideration to urban
development proposals with are contiguous to existing development within the city limits; and
locational criteria for commercial/business types of uses.
The proposed plan is also compatible with the Oak/Cottonwood Farm Overall
Development Plan. The scale of the proposed buildings forms a transition between the larger
anchor users at Harmony Market and the residential uses to the north and west. The self
storage facility and office building are designed in a residential architectural style. The
development has pitched gable roofing. The siding consists of masonry, ship lap siding,
Dryvit, and other materials found on the surrounding residences. The majority of the overhead
doors are screened by building and landscape design. Landscaping is heavily oriented to the
residential neighbcrs and is consistent with PUD requirements. The buildings are one story
with the exception of the manager's office and residence, and the office building.
Self storage projects are typically low impact developments.
1. Self storage developments are environmentally compatible with residential
neighborhoods.
2. Self storage developments are very low noise generators.
3. Self storage developments are very low traffic generators.
4. Hours of use are generally from 6:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M.
5. The storage units are restricted to residential and small business users for
storage only.
Development of the site is scheduled to begin in spring 1997, with completion of the
full site development targeted between 1998 and 1999.
