Department Zoning Contact: Peter Bames, 970-416-2355, pbames@fcgov.com Topic: General Number: 1 Created: 04292011 04/292011: Building 93 has been relocated a considerable distance from where it was shown on the PDP. Is this still considered to be "consistent with the PDP" as required be Sec. 2.5.2(H) Response: I checked article 5 of the Fort Collins Land Use Code, and the term "consistent" is not defined. Dictionary.com defines the term as follows: con•sist•ent adjective Aen_sistenV 1. (of a person, behavior, or process) Unchanging in achievement or effect over a period of time - manufacturing processes require a consistent approach 2. Compatible or in agreement with something - the injuries are consistent with falling from a great height 3. (of an argument or set of ideas) Not containing any logical contradictions - a consistent explanation The proposed location of the proposed building moved, however both locations are in the rear yard of a large industrial complex. There is no change in character, or substantial change or effect, nor do there appear to be any logical contradictions as a result of the different location. I suggest that the new location is therefore consistent with the PDP approval. 00 Contact: Ward Stanford, 970-221-6820, wstanford@fcgov.com Topic: Construction Drawings Number: 4 Created: 05262011 05262011: Sheet C10: Please cleanup the signing and striping plans so the curbs, and new lane lines stand out from the existing info.

Since that plan is unfunded and development continues to be proposed in the area it causes the need for City transportation staff to debate the issue with each new development proposal. The debate is whether it is appropriate to require typical improvements at the LemayBuckinham intersection. Per Figure 8-1 of LCUASS a left turn lane is required on Lemay at Buckingham and since this development's traffic will impact that intersection it would have the responsibility to construct the north bound left turn lane. The Church proposed near the intersection had the responsibility placed on it when it was in the City development process. The Church has yet to be constructed and as such I feel I'm left with no alternative than to require the same responsibility from this project. This item will be discussed at our next Transportation Coordination meeting. Until the requirement is removed, LCUASS requires a north bound left turn lane at Lemay/Buckingham and would be this projects responsibility to provide. Response: It is our understanding that after further discussion, this comment has been removed by Ward Stanford. 1.14 so N Topic: Landscape Plans Number: 5 Created: 05/172011 05/172011: No comments.

The applicant can meet on site with the City Forester to determine species of existing trees. This information can be included in the tree mitigation notes. Trees species to be transplanted to the parkway strip along Buckingham should be suitable species for street trees. See the City of Fort Collins Street Tree list.

You will need to change the scale of the drawings to do this. 4 N so - What is happening along the east property line? Is there fencing? -Either label something or take them off this plan completely, the grayed out items should only be the basics. Response: The intent is that the neighboring property owner will be offered the opportunity to tie into the fencing scheme, however it is intended that that property owner seek his own building permits for such fencing. If that property owner chooses not to tie in, our intent is to bring our portion of the fence to the property line. We were told in an earlier submittal that if we show the fence on the neighbor's property, we would need to get an easement in order to do so. Rather than that, we'd like to just leave the fence to the neighbor to decide whether or not he wants to tie in.
