b. Both the proposed hotel and standard restaurant uses are defined
as Secondary Uses in the HC District, per Section 4.26(D)(2) of the
LUC. Secondary uses can occupy no more than 25% of the total
gross area of the development plan. However, as Lot 1 of the

form of a Harmony Corridor Regional Shopping Center as defined
in the Harmony Corridor Standards and Guidelines. This center is
bounded by South College Avenue to the west, Troutman Parkway
to the north, Boardwalk Drive and Landings Park to the east, and
East Harmony Road to the south. The total area of this regional
shopping center is approximately 110 acres. The restaurant use is
a permitted use in a Harmony Corridor Regional Shopping Center
but a hotel (lodging establishment) is not. Therefore; it may be
necessary to request a modification of the standard that limits the
amount of secondary uses; being Section 4.26(D)(2) of the LUC.

and decision by the Planning & Zoning Board. Buildings must be
located a distance of 10' — 25' from the JFK Parkway right-of-way
b. Address Numerals - Address numerals shall be visible from the
street fronting the property and posted with a minimum six-inch (6)
numerals on a contrasting background (bronze numerals on brown
brick, for example, are not acceptable). 97UFC 901.4.4.
C. Water Supply - Fire hydrants, where required, must be of a type
approved by the water district having jurisdiction and Poudre Fire
Authority. Hydrant spacing and water flow must meet the minimum
requirements based on the type of occupancy. Minimum flow and
spacing requirements include: Commercial - 1,500 gallons per
minute @ 20 pounds per square inch, spaced not further than 300
feet to the building on 600 foot centers thereafter. These
requirements may be modified if the building is equipped with an
automatic fire sprinkler system. 97UFC 901.2.2.2.
d. Turning Radius - Minimum turning radius for fire apparatus on all
roadways is 25 feet inside and 50 feet outside.
e. Knox Box Required - Poudre Fire Authority requires a "Knox Box"
to be mounted on the front of every new building equipped with a
required fire sprinkler system or fire alarm system. 97UFC 902.4;
PFA Bureau Policy 88-20.

4. Glen Schlueter of the Stormwater Utility offered the following
comments:
a. The site in on Stormwater Inventory Map #8P. A copy of the map
can be obtained from the Utility Service Center at 700 Wood
Street.
b. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design
of the McClelland's Creek Master Drainageway Plan, as well as the
City's Design Criteria and Construction Standards.
C. The City-wide development fee is $3,070 per acre ($0.0705 / sq.
ft.) for new impervious area over 350 square feet. No fee is
charged for existing impervious area on the site. This fee is to be
paid at the time of issuance of building permits.
d. A drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are
required and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer
registered in the State of Colorado.
e. There is an existing pipe and channel on the property that would

Since the swale is the outfall for properties to the west it would
minimize the detention on this site if the pipe bypassed the on -site
detention as shown for this proposal.

also be an option to dedicate the easements.
k. Based on the conceptual plans, the required internal emergency
access may be of concern.
The ditch company for the Larimer County Canal No. 2, along the
west side of the property, will have to approve and sign the utility
plans.
