Should during the course of building design the drain system as proposed needs to be
altered, a revision to the drawing will be needed.
[7/8/05] The construction drawings will need to show how the perimeter drain system noted
in the soils report will outlet (how it ties into the storm system).
Number: 113 Created: 1 /30/2006
[1130/061 The perimeter drain system encroacning onto the proposed utility easement along
Cherry Street is problematic in that we don't have an encroachment permit mechanism
within an easement, only right-of-way. Hs wiili 41 12, a three dimnesional utility easement
appears to be needed to call out the area below the stairwell and above the perimeter drain
system as an easement and the utility providers need to provide input and acceptance on
this.
Topic: Utility Plans
Number: 114 Created: 1/30/2006
[1 /30/061 The level of design provided on the plans for the utility connections south of the
site across Cherry Street was discussed at length within Engineering. With this being the
first review of "final" construction drawings, we will not support the information provided for
the various utility connections as being adequate. Please refer to 25.1.6 of LCUASS
requiring field locating and verifying elevations of all utilities on construction plans.
Approximate location of utilities with field verification after plan approval will not be
accepted.
The boring "designs" shown need to specify profiles and clearances from other utilities.
Please also note that the plans do not show a storm pipe crossing across Cherry Street that
will cross the gas connection shown across Cherry Street.
Number: 115 Created: 1 /30/2006
[1/30/061 The street cut on Cherry Street for the water main is not shown correctly per
patching standards with the patching needing to be shown at right angles to the direction of
travel. Please expand the patching area.
Number: 116 Created: 1 /30/2006
[1/30/061 Add the following note: Limits of street repair are approximate. Final limits to be
determined in the field by the City Engineering Inspector at the time the cuts are made. All
repairs are to be in accordance with City standards."
Number: 118 Created: 1/30/2006
[1/30/061 HDPE pipe is not allowed in right-of-way. Contech A-2000 is an acceptable
material.
Number: 119 Created: 1 /30/2006
[1/30/061 The underdrain pipe for the tree wells will require an encroachment permit for its
location in the right-of-way. For where it ties into the outlet of the storage tank, is this area
proposed as a utility easement?
Number: 120 Created: 1 /30/2006
11/30/061 Indicate the amount of street patching proposed with the gas tie in within the
street.

LAND USE DATA: Request to develop a new 3 story 13,000sf mixed -use residential
building with below grade parking. The property is within the City of Fort Collins and is
currently zoned CCR — Community Commercial — Poudre River District. The following
departmental agencies have offered comments for this proposal based on a conceptual
plan which was presented to the review team.
COMMENTS:
Zoning
Contact Info: Gary Lopez, 416-2338, glopez@fcgov.com
Mixed -use dwelling units are a permitted use in the CCR District and would
be subject to a Type I (Administrative) review.
Please refer to 3.2.2 (K) for minimum parking standards for this project.
Engineering
Contact Info: Katie Moore, 221-6605, kamoore@fcgov.com
1. Larimer County Road Impact Fees and Street Oversizing Fees for this site
will apply. Street oversizing fees will be approximately $1120 per dwelling
unit. Contact Matt Baker at (970) 224-6108 for an updated estimate of the
fees for this kind of use.
2. A Traffic Impact Study will be required for this project to determine access
points. The access point may be right -in -right -out only. Because of the RR
crossings, there is not enough room for a left turn lane. Contact Eric Bracke
at (970) 224-6062 for a scoping meeting.
3. The left turn from northbound College Ave. to Cherry St. will eventually be
eliminated.
4. Right -of way may need to be dedicated along Cherry, which is a collector
with parking. The ROW is 76', half of which you will be responsible for
dedicating from the centerline of Cherry.

5. Since your proposed building placement won't allow for the standard utility
easement, you'll need to get approval from all the utilities for your plan.
Additionally, a utility coordination meeting is recommended.
6. Utility plans, a Development Agreement, a Development Construction Permit
and plat will need to be prepared for this project.
7. Any utility connections across College or Cherry through open trenching will
incur triple street out fees because of the recent street improvements. Talk
to Lance Newlin about street cut fees and whether that is a better option
than jack and bore in this situation. Lance can be reached at 416-2011 or
Inewlin@fcgov.com.
8. A repay may be due for Cherry St. road improvements. Contact Matt Baker
to discuss, at 224-6108.
9. Because of the proposed driveway to underground parking, this project is
reminiscent of the Cortina project. A major difference is that Cortina sits on a
local street with very low volumes, and this project is effectively on an
arterial. A very close look will need to be taken at the design of the ramp to
the underground parking. This ram p should be located fully outside of the
ROW for Cherry Street, and significant attention should be paid to sight
distance issues: will drivers coming up the ramp be able to stop in time to
avoid hitting pedestrians on the sidewalk? Will visibility be adequate to
ensure the safety of the motorists entering and exiting the structure? Will
cars be able to stop and wait to exit without blocking the sidewalk for
significant periods of time?
10. The driveway into and out of your underground parking lot needs to be
straight for 25' to ensure vehicle and pedestrian safety. The ramp must be
floodproof.
11. Contact Ron Gonzales at the Poudre Fire Authority at 416-2864 for their
requirements before submitting your PDP.
12. The developer is responsible for sidewalk improvements on Cherry St.
13. All public improvements need to be made in accordance with Larimer
County Urban Area Street Standards (LCUASS)
Light and Power
Contact Info: Bruce Vogel, 224-6157, bvogel@fcgov.com
1. This is a tough spot for development because it is isolated from utilities.
There is existing 3 phase available to the northeast but it is across the RR
tracks. You can bore under the tracks with a RR permit, but you will likely
need an 8" or bigger bore because of the river rocks and poor soil.
2. If you don't need 3 phase, there is existing single phase across Cherry to the
south, for which you'd need to pothole all the other utilities and bore under
Cherry, which is likely to be costly.
3. The transformer location will need to be coordinated with Light and Power.
4. If you will need 50kva or under, we can locate the transformer in a vault. If
over 50kva, it'll need to be pad mounted.
Water / Wastewater
Contact Info: Roger Buffington, 221-6854, rbuffington@fcgov.com
1. There is an existing 30" sewer main located on the north side of the
Burlington Northern Railroad line. A 6-inch sanitary sewer is located in
Cherry Street to the east of the Union Pacific Railroad.
3
2. There is an existing 8" water main on the south side of Cherry. There is a
24" main on the north side of the site maintained by Weld Co.
3. Whichever sewer main you tap into, you will need a permit to bore under the
RR tracks.
4. It is not recommended to put water, wastewater and electric in the same
bore under the tracks even if large.
5. You will need separate service for residential and commercial tenants. You
might be able to eliminate this requirement if you add a deed restriction to
prevent restaurants and laundries from being commercial tenants.
6. You will need to work with the City on issues around discharge points for the
drains in the indoor parking. Factors that will influence whether it is treated
as wastewater or stormwater will depend on the elevation and layout of the
parking, the overall grading, etc.
7. Water conservation standards apply to this project.
8. Development fees and rights are due prior to receiving Building Permit.
Stormwater
Contact Info: Glen Schlueter, 224-6065, gschlueter@fcgov.com
1. This site is in the Old Town drainage basin where the new development fee
is $4,150.00/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. This
fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued and is charged only
when there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 350 square feet.
2. A drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required
and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in
Colorado.
3. Onsite detention is required with a 2 year historic release rate for water
quantity, and extended detention is required for water quality treatment.
Parking lot detention is allowed as long as it is not deeper than one foot. If
there is 5000 square feet or less of new imperviousness, water quantity
detention is not required nor is water quality extended detention. The
applicant thought that Basil had said water quantity detention would not be
required but that was before he knew the site does not drain north directly
into the Poudre River. Since the railroad tracks prohibit drainage toward the
river, the site actually drains into Cherry St., so onsite detention is required.
Also, roof top detention and a green roof were discussed as options. Water
quality treatment is required for normal roof drainage as well as driveways
and other impervious areas.
4. There are inlets in Cherry Street at the corners of College and Mason.
Either one can be used as an outfall.
5. Containment of garage runoff from cleaning operations needs to be
considered since that type of water is not allowed to be discharged into the
storm sewer.

ISSUES:
Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Anne Aspen
Topic: Genera!
Created: 3/18l2005
Number: 27
(3/18/05] There are interesting ideas in your parking scheme. The platform lifts are a great solution
to some of your parking Constraints. But taken together, all of the minimally standard and
substandard aspects you propose in your parking lot do not meet the intent of the Land Use Code as
spelled out in Section 3.2.2(A). The lot is not safe, efficient or convenient for the users.
+ About half of the stalls are dimensioned with the smallest measurements allowable as defined in
long-term parking which is allowable for residential parking. Thirteen spaces are lift style, twelve
spaces are triple tandem style, and four spaces are double tandem style. The parking requirement
for the proposed 18 units, 16 of which are 2 bedroom and two of which are 1 bedroom is 31 spaces.
+ With 31 spaces total, 2 handicap spaces are required by 3.2.2 (K)(5)(d). Only one handicap
accessible space is shown.
+ There is no provision for any guest parking. This is not a specific requirement of the Code.
+ As Zoning surmises elsewhere in this comment letter, with the high number of cars in tandem and
the limited maneuvering space, and the likelihood that most residents will come and go according to a
regular work schedule, there is not sufficient room for safe, convenient and efficient access to parking
in this configuration with this many units. Also, since all of the units are declared to be 1 or 2
bedroom, the triple tandem spots are problematic in that no one neighbor would control all three
spots, so one neighbor would have to call another neighbor (or two) to jockey cars in the morning.
The applicant has stated that the triple spaces would not be split up among neighbors. If this is the
case, these extra spaces should not be counted, even if the modification were approved, towards the
required number of spaces.
+ There is a lack of sufficient backing space for spaces 5-18. It is likely in this scheme that the
spaces would be full since so few are provided and that backing for the 13 spaces numbered 5-18
would occur in the handicap loading area which also serves as the only pedestrian access from the
parking to the units, which is clearly not safe, efficient or convenient.
+ Though the plans are unclear as to exactly how many units are to be provided and whether there
will be commercial space, there are no commercial or retail parking spaces offered or space for
employees. Several of the intended commercial uses listed on the cover page would functionally
need a drop-off or loading zone which is not provided on site.
Because the proposed parking scheme as described in the submittal impairs the intent of the Land
Use Code in that it is not safe, efficient or convenient, Staff will not support the modification.
Response: In the previous round of review, we had requested a modification to the parking standards.
We are no longer requesting this modification and have redesigned the parking configuration to
satisfy the quantities required in the code for 15 two -bedroom units. We propose 28 parking spaces,
only 27 are required.
We have revised the parking layout to now provide for space for backing manuvers.
Page 1
We have revised our submittal to clarify that the non-residential component of the project will only be
an internet service provider. This use would only have one employee for an hour or so a week to
maintain the equipment. One of the parking spaces will be available to the non-residential employee.
Number: 28 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18105] There are no bike facilities shown on the site plan. The developer is required by LUC
3.2.2.C(4) to provide for bike facilities for at least 5% of the number of parking spaces. Additional
requirements are laid out in the following three sections.
Response: We have provided, a bike rack as part of this submittal as requested.
Number: 29 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18/05] No photometrics were submitted with this project. A lighting plan with photometrics will be
required in accordance with LUC 3.2.4(B) and C. Design standards follow in Section (D).
Response: We have provided a photometric lighting plan as part of this submittal as requested.
Number. 34 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18/05] There is not sufficient information to determine safety of pedestrians where the streetscape
intersects with the drive ramp into the parking garage. Please add information on where the ramp
starts to the site plan and indicate clearly what happens on the edges of the ramp. Is it a curb? Is it a
low wall? The issue of pedestrian safety is addressed in Sections 3.2.2.C.(2), 3.2.2.C.(5)(b),
3.2.2(D)(1) and 3.2.2.(E)(5).
Response: Additional information to determine safety of pedestrians where the drive ramp crosses
the sidewalk has been provided as requested.

(3117/051 The site plan (Sheet 2 of 8) and construction plan set do not coordinate with regards to the
pedestrian space in front of the building along Cherry Street. The site plan shows hatching that
implies east of the new driveway, existing sidewalk is to be removed and replaced with a larger
decorative sidewalk hatching up to the building. The construction plan set shows the existing
concrete sidewalk remaining with a decorative type of brick walk behind the existing sidewalk. Please
clarify the intent of the new and proposed pedestrian area and if new additional sidewalk is proposed
within right-of-way that is not standard concrete, who will be maintaining this (DDA?)
Response: We have revised the site plan and the construction plan set to be coordinated on this
issue. The sidewalk will be standard concrete that well be saw -cut between the building and the
existing sidewalk. The existing sidewalk is to remain as -is.
Number: 21 Created: 3/17/2005
[3/171051 The portion of the stairwell component along Cherry that extends into right-of-way is of
issue. These permanent structures are not allowed in public right-of-way and should be shifted to the
north to place everything (including footers for the retaining wall) outside of right-of-way.
Response: We have revised the stairwell to be entirely outside the Cherry Street right-of-way.
Number: 22 Created: 3/17/2005
[3/17/05] The infiltration planter boxes being located in right-of-way are problematic. The City
Engineer is willing to allow this but there are some general concerns. The 1-foot drop in height from
the surrounding grade to the planting area (as specified on the detail sheet 7 of 7 for the construction

Tree grates should be provided to eliminate the issue of the grade change. If the "proposed
plantings" shown in the detail is Intended in addition to the street tree, I'm not sure if plantings can be
selected that would grow through the tree grates? In lieu of tree grates, we may consider design
alternatives of a barrier curb with notches to allow drainage to pass through, but the use of tree grates
to prevent the 1 foot drop is preferred.
Also, please ensure that the depth of the cut-off wall(s) for the planter boxes is at minimum three feet
deep to reduce potential issues of the drainage affecting the pavement subsurface.
Response: We have decided not to proceed with the infiltration component of the planter boxes. The
tree wells will be standard tree wells. Tree grates are now proposed for our tree wells.

entrance to the parking garage. Is this to be left in the current condition? Why not provide turf and
street trees?
Response: We propose to utilize the existing sidewalk west of our driveway. We propose to put
dryland grasses between the sidewalk and our loading zone. We propose shrubs along the south
edge of the loading zone.

[3/18/05] Given that there is no parking allowed along Cherry Street, I question how a modification to
reduce the number of residential parking spaces can be supported. The Policy Statement CCD-1.19,
cited in the modification request notes that in reducing parking standards, "on -street parking should
be maximized", which can't be provided here given the configuration of Cherry Street. In my view,
this citation weakens the argument to support the modification as no on -street parking exists for quite
a distance from the property. Given the limited parking for the residents and guests (even if the
modification were denied), the follow note should be added to the site plan and plat:
Parking Note:
Initial buyers of the development will be notified that they are buying into a configuration with limited
(or no) guest and overflow parking, that households with more than two cars will have very limited on -
site parking, and that the City accepts no responsibility to solve the parking problem at any point in
the future.
Response: We have withdrawn our parking modification request. We have added the Parking Note to
the site plan notes. The property was already platted with the original town plat. We are not
proposing to replat, therefore there's not a new plat on which to put this note.
Number: 41 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18/05] While the LUC has a maximum parking requirement for commercial, it seems appropriate to
question where drop off and pick-up of patrons and/or employees, as well as load and unload items
for delivery. 100% in total transit, bike, & pedestrian with 0% vehicular appears unrealistic. As an
example, will the child and dog care uses specified for this building expect to see patrons drop off
their child and/or dog via bike, transit, or walking and not by way of vehicle? How will postal delivery
service function? Where will a pizza delivery vehicle/UPS park? It seems appropriate to look into
providing additional inset widening for drop-off, another possibility is to provide satellite parking (Taco
John's parking lot?)
If the manner in which drop offs and deliveries are handled is by stopping on Cherry Street, this is of
concern considering it blocks a through lane of traffic. If the driveway/ramp down to the parking
garage becomes the default, having vehicles back-up onto Cherry Street against the flow of traffic is
also problematic.
Response: We have backed off most non-residential uses, however we have one that remains. A
fiber optic trunk line runs along our side of Cherry, so we have specified that the only non-residential
use is an internet service provider. We have talked to an end user who is very interested. They will
only have one employee at the site for an hour or two a couple times a week. There offices will be
elsewhere. They will really just have computer and internet equipment at the site, and a desk to
maintain the equipment. We met with Eric Bracke, Marc Virata, and Anne Aspen on April 26, 2005 at

[3/18/05] While a soils report was not submitted and not required through Engineering, it seems odd
that one isn't being done at this time given the high groundwater in the area (the Block 33 soils report
indicated finding groundwater in various locations at depths as high as 6.5 feet below the existing
surface) and the use of a below grade parking structure and infiltration planter boxes in the right-of-
way. Also, with the site being next to two railroad lines, wouldn't there be a benefit in conducting a
soils investigation now if there may be some underground contamination?
The construction of the parking garage and any potential associated dewatering will need to designed
in such a way that groundwater is not discharged onto public right-of-way. Any attempts to dewater
the site should be verified that the groundwater is not contaminated or that another party has
groundwater rights.

[3/23105] Referring back to #41, with the lack of parking being provided for the commercial uses
(which meets code), Transportation Services would like to receive written confirmation from the
Developer that the proposed design lacking commercial parking is the Developer's decision and that
the Developer acknowledges that the City shall be under no obligation to provide parking for the
development at any point in the future.
Response: We have revised our submittal to clarify that the non-residential component of the project
will only be an internet service provider. This use would only have one employee for an hour or so a
week to maintain the equipment. One of the parking spaces will be available to the non-residential
employee.

[3125/05) Representatives of Transportation Services discussed the Cherry Street design and it was
fully agreed (including Traffic Engineering) to allow inset parallel parking (not diagonal parking) along
Page 5
Cherry Street. The inset parking area will need to be used EXCLUSIVELY for pick-up/dropOff &
loading/unloading operations and will need to be designated as such (no designated parking spaces
will be allowed, even short term). Furthermore, Transportation Services is generally concerned if the
project were to proceed without providing the inset parking as vehicles would otherwise be utilizing
the bikelane and travel lane for parking/drop-off/pick-up maneuvers. The start of the transition on the
e
east side to provide the inset parking shall occur in front of the property, not in front of the railroad
property. This inset parking does not need to "bump -out" prior to the driveway leading to the parking
garage; the inset area can continue into the driveway per the City's Traffic Engineer.
Response: We met with Eric Bracke, Marc Virata, and Anne Aspen on April 26, 2005 at 2:30 p.m., in
the Development Review Engineering conference room at 281 North College Ave, and worked out
that we can provide a loading zone off the west side of our drive aisle with this scenario.

[3126/051 The comment was raised at staff review from Advance Planning suggesting moving the
location of the street trees adjacent to the street. Should this design be utilized instead of the present
proposal of putting the trees behind the existing attached sidewalk, Engineering may have additional
concern and comments with regards to #22 as this change will result in the infiltration planter boxes
being directly adjacent to the flowiine of the street which raises pavement maintenance and
degradation concerns that are minimized in the present design with the sidewalk separation. This
comment applies whether street trees ate adjacent to inset parking or bikelanes.
Response: We intend to keep the tree wells in the location behind the existing sidewalk. We plan to
have standard tree wells rather than the infiltration concept within them.

Response: Yes, you are right, we will need 3 phase power. We plan to connect to 3 phase power in
the existing alley approximately 300' south of Cherry Street.

Department: PFA Issue Contact: Ron Gonzales
Topic: fire
Number: 64 Created: 3/25/2005
The Poudre Fire Authority has reviewed this submittal from various aspects of safety. The PFA
CANNOT support this proposed edifice for the following reasons:
1. this triangular shaped bldg has railroad tracks on two of its facades. As such, there is no access
available for aerial operations to be conducted within a safe distance margin.
2. the restricted height of this edifice allows for sprinklers and standpipes, but does notallowfor the
requirements of all the necessary fire engineered systems of a high-rise bldg.
This presents additional burdens on firefighters.
3. there is not sufficient working space on Cherry St for the full complement of response vehicles to
properly and adequately stage to conduct a safe operation.
Response: We have coordinated these comments with Ron Gonzales and it is our understanding that
PFA does now support the proposed PDP for the following reasons:
Section 902.2.1 of the 1997 Uniform Fire Code requires "that any portion of the facility or any
portion of an exterior wall of the first story of the building be located less than 150' from fire
apparatus access as measured by an approved route around the exterior of the building or
facility', or else fire apparatus access roads need to be provided around the building. Since an
engine parked on Cherry Street can easily drag a 150' hose around the northwest side and 134'
hose around the east side of the building and meet one another, the entire first story of the
building is clearly located within 150' of fire apparatus access, and as such, no access roads
are required to be provided around the building. In addition, this project also complies with
Poudre Fire Authority Administrative Policy 85-5 B which states: "Buildings three or more stories
in height must have access to a 30' unobstructed access roadway on at least one (1) side
(blank walls excluded) for aerial operations." As mentioned above, we are providing access to
the entire south facing side of our building, and therefore comply with this policy as well.
In addition, we have withdrawn our modification of height limits request, and redesigned our
building to qualify as a 3-story building, which is now proposed to be approximately 69 feet in
height.

[7/5/05] The revised parking area design does not adequately address staffs previous
concerns about safety and convience for users. In particular, parking spaces 7-10 and 13-22
cannot accommodate safe backing and turning manuevers required for standard -sized

two of which are 1 bedroom is 31 spaces.
+ There is no provision for any guest perking. This is not a spec requirement of the Code.
+ There is a lack of sufficient backing space for spaces 51& It is likely in this scheme that the spaces would be full
since so few are provided and that backing fa the 13 spaces numbered 5-18 would occur in the handicap loading area
which also serves as the only pedestrian access from the narking to the units, which is clearly not safe, efficient or
convenient.
+ Though the plans are unclear as to exactly how many units are to be provided and whether there will be commercial
space, there are no commercial or relay pecking spaces offered or space for employees. Several of the intended
commercial uses listed on the cover page would functionally need a drop-off or loading zone which is not provided on

The Poudre Fire Authority has reviewed this submittal from various aspects of safety. The
PFA CANNOT support this proposed edifice for the following reasons:
1. this triangular shaped bldg has railroad tracks on two of its facades. As such, there is no
access available for aerial operations to be conducted within a safe distance margin.
2. the resticted height of this edifice allows for sprinklers and standpipes, but does not allow
for the requirements of all the necessary fire engineered systems of a high-rise bldg.
This presents additional burdens on firefighters.
3. there is not sufficent working space on Cherry St for the full complement of response
vehicles to properly and adequately stage to conduct a safe operation.
Response: Ron Gonzales has forwarded coorespondence to Anne Aspen regarding the
resolution of this issue. The e-mail is quoted as follows:

Anne,
Thanks for allowing us to process this... here's the resolution for this
project...
Because the access to this project site is poor, the PFA could not
support the development. 1 have negotiated with the developer and the
Page 4
Fire Marshal that if a code defined "high-rise" package was to be
installed in the building, PFA could and would support the development
of this site.
Owners have agreed to install the "high-rise" package of engineered
systems, less the fire pump and standpipe provisions. PFA concurred.
The only reason for a fire pump would be if the city water pressure was
not adequate enough to support the fire sprinkler system.
Thanks again... hope you can enjoy your vacation ... bye now

16/28/051 The removal of the tandem spaces is noted. The typical parking stall depth shown
on the parking plan is only 17.5% but the code requires an 18' stall depth for long term
residential parking. The 26' drive aisle exceeds the minimum 2N required, so there is a little
extra room to make up the difference. However, the dimensioned parking platform lift detail
would seem to preclude SUV's, minivans, or any vehicle with a roof -mounted rack from
parking on these platforms due to the height restriction. Therefore, unless the tenants are
restricted from owning such vehicles, I would think that there may not be enough usable
parking spaces to meet the demand, and while 28 spaces are shown, I doubt that there are
the

Response: We have revised the layout to ensure that all parking stalls are at least 18 feet
deep. Additionally, we've added more dimensions to our parking layout drawing to clarify
that the spaces are designed in conformance with the "Long-term" space size requirements.
Parking lifts will be as specified (or equivalent) on Sheet 3 of 10 in this submittal. Heights of
specific parking spaces designed to be as listed in the following chart.
Up to 5'-9" 5'-9" to 6' 3" I 6'-3" to 12'-V
l00% of researched cars (including Chevrolet, Toyota and Honda) with roof racks or cargo
boxes as well as several models of sport utility vehicles are accommodated in parking
spaces with a height of up to 5'-9". Additionally, 80% of researched models of mini -vans,
mid and full-sized pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles (including Chevrolet, Ford,
Mercury, Lincoln, Land Rover, Dodge, Jeep, Toyota and Cadillac) are 6'-3" tall or under and
are therefore accommodated as shown on the chart above.

[3/18/051 The plans (site plan, construction plan, landscape plan, and drainage exhibit in the
drainage report) do not indicate what is to occur in the right-of-way west of the proposed

provide turf and street trees?
Number: 40 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18/05] Given that there is no parking allowed along Cherry Street, I question how a
modification to reduce the number of residential parking spaces can be supported. The Policy
Statement CCD-1.19, cited in the modification request notes that in reducing parking standards,
"on -street parking should be maximized", which can't be provided here given the configuration of
Cherry Street. In my view, this citation weakens the argument to support the modification as no
on -street parking exists for quite a distance from the property. Given the limited parking for the
residents and guests (even if the modification were denied), the follow note should be added to
the site plan and plat:
Parking Note:
Initial buyers of the development will be notified that they are buying into a configuration with
limited (or no) guest and overflow parking, that households with more than two cars will have
very limited on -site parking, and that the City accepts no responsibility to solve the parking
problem at any point in the future.

[3/18/05] While the LUC has a maximum parking requirement for commercial, It seems
appropriate to question where drop off and pick-up of patrons and/or employees, as well as load
and unload items for delivery. 100% in total transit, bike, & pedestrian with 0% vehicular
appears unrealistic. As an example, will the child and dog care uses specified for this building
expect to see patrons drop off their child and/or dog via bike, transit, or walking and not by way
of vehicle? How will postal delivery service function? Where will a pizza delivery vehicle/UPS
park? It seems appropriate to look into providing additional inset widening for drop-off, another
possibility is to provide satellite parking (Taco John's parking lot?)
If the manner in which drop offs and deliveries are handled is by stopping on Cherry Street, this
is of concern considering it blocks a through lane of traffic. If the driveway/ramp down to the
parking garage becomes the default, having vehicles back-up onto Cherry Street against the
flow of traffic is also problematic.
Number. 42 Created: 3/18/2005
[3/18/051 While a soils report was not submitted and not required through Engineering, it seems
odd that one isn't being done at this time given the high groundwater in the area (the Block 33
soils report indicated finding groundwater in various locations at depths as high as 6.5 feet below
the existing surface) and the use of a below grade parking structure and infiltration planter boxes
in the right-of-way. Also, with the site being next to two railroad lines, wouldn'tthere be a benefit
in conducting a soils investigation now if there may be some underground contamination?
The construction of the parking garage and any potential associated dewatering will need to
designed in such a way that groundwater is not discharged onto public right-of-way. Any
attempts to dewater the site should be verified that the groundwater is not contaminated or that
another party has groundwater rights.

Eli Jeannette,
In regards to the mailboxes for the proposed Cherry Street Station at 100-1.20 M ry
St; we are considering your request that they be in the wall on the front of the build'' g.
Normally we prefer the box to be installed outside by the sidewalk, however in soar,
cases we allow the mailboxes to be placed on an exterior wall or in the lobby of the
building. If the mailboxes are in the lobby, it is preferable if the lobby is open to the
public and does not require a private key. In any case, considering the location of tk
Cherry Street Station and the limited access for a delivery vehicle, we wouldmost

allow delivery to the front wall or lobby of the building. The specific arrangement
have to be agreed upon when we have the final plans to work with,

[3/23/05] Referring back to #41, with the lack of parking being provided for the commercial uses
(which meets lode), Transportation Services would like to receive written confirmation from the

[3/25105] Representatives of Transportation Services discussed the Cherry Street design and it
was fully agreed (including Traffic Engineering) to allow inset parallel parking (not diagonal
parking) along Chevy Street The inset parking area will need to be used EXCLUSIVELY for
pick-up/drop-off & loading/unloading operations and will need to be designated as such (no
designated parking spaces will be allowed, even short term). Furthermore, Transportation
Services is generally concerned If the project were to proceed without providing the inset parking
as vehicles would otherwise be utilizing the bikelane and travel lane for parking/drop-off/pick-up
maneuvers. The start of the transition on the east side to provide the inset parking shall occur in
front of the property, not in front of the railroad property. This inset parking does not need to
"bump -out" prior to the driveway leading to the parking garage; the inset area can continue into
the driveway per the City's Traffic Engineer.
Number. 66 Created: 3/25/2005
[3/25/05] The comment was raised at staff review from Advance Planning suggesting moving
the location of the street trees adjacent to the street. Should this design be utilized instead of
the present proposal of putting the trees behind the existing attached sidewalk, Engineering may
have additional concern and comments with regards to #22 as this change will result in the
infiltration planter boxes being directly adjacent to the flowline of the street which raises
pavement maintenance and degradation concerns that are minimized in the present design with
the sidewalk separation. This comment applies whether street trees are adjacent to inset
parking or bikelanes.

[1130/061 The proposed utility easement along Cherry Street appears to be situated such
that the stairwell entrance into the building will lay over the easement. This is somewhat
problematic in that there is no encroachment permit mechanism in place for items in a utility
easement. The utility easement will need to be defined in three dimensions vertically (which
relates to ID 113). The affected utility providers will need to sign the plans indicating their
acceptance of this compromised utility easement and the impact of having a structure over
the easement needs to be verified. The exact boundary of this easement needs to be
verified as private utilities (such as the underdrain pipe for the tree wells) cannot be within
this easement.
