water rights would be due at time of building permit. For further
information, please contact Roger Buffington, 221-6700.
6. Electrical power will be provided by the City of Fort Collins - Light and
Power Utility. Three-phase primary power is available at the northwest
corner of King Soopers. You may tie into an existing secondary vault if
that will provide sufficient power. If this power source is insufficient, then
you will have to tap the three-phase primary power and a new transformer
will have to be set. .
7. For electrical service, please submit a Commercial One ("C-1 ") Form,
completed by a licensed electrical contractor, to Light and Power. For
further information, please contact Alan Rutz, 221-6700.
8. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the
Canal Importation Master Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria
and Construction standards. There will be a fee on the building permit for
the 35ft. by 15ft. pad shown on the plan. The fee would be for the 525
sq.ft. of new imperviousness. The city wide development fee is
$3,070/acre ($0.0705/sq.ft.) for new impervious area over 350 sq.ft. No
fee is charged for existing impervious area. This fee is to be paid at the
time the building permit is issued.
9. A grading plan is required. If there is an increase in imperviousness .
greater than 1000 square feet a drainage and erosion control report and
construction plans are required. These must be prepared by a
Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. A grading plan is required
when there is between 1000 and 350 square feet of new imperviousness,
but no drainage study is required. There are no requirements for less than
350 square feet.
10. Normally onsite detention is required with a 2 year historic release rate for
water quantity and extended detention is required for water quality
treatment only if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 1,000
square feet. If there are less than 1000 but more than 350 square feet of
new imperviousness, a site grading plan is all that is required. For further
information, please contact Glen Schlueter, 221-6700.
11. Existing mains: 6-inch water and 8-inch sewer west of King Soopers in an
easement. In addition, a 2-inch domestic water service and 6-inch fire line
extend from these mains to the King Soopers building in the general
vicinity of the proposed cell tower facility. The developer should field
locate the water/sewer mains and the domestic water service and fire line
to determine if conflicts exist. Be sure to maintain 10 feet separation to all
water/sewer lines.
12. If an irrigation system is planned, the least costly method of obtaining
water would be to worts with King Soopers to connect to the building water
CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS
City of Fort Collins
ITEM: T-Mobile Cellular Tower at Cedarwood Plaza
MEETING DATE: October 30, 2006
APPLICANT: Mr. Chris Stryker, Stryker Site Services L.L.C., P.O.
Box 1558, Denver, CO. 80201.
LAND USE DATA: Request to erect an 40-foot high cellular tower for T-Mobile
Wireless located directly west of King Soopers at the Cedarwood Plaza shopping
center at the southwest comer of Taft Hill Road and West Elizabeth Street. As
proposed, the tower would be of a monopole design without the projecting array
of antennae at the top. There would be base equipment enclosed by a fence.
COMMENTS:
1. The site is zoned N-C, Neighborhood Commercial. A cellular tower is
considered to be wireless telecommunications equipment which is an
allowable land use subject to Administrative Review.
2. Cell towers are subject to the standards found in Section 3.8.13 of the
Land Use Code. The Land Use Code is available at www.fcqov.com.
3. Please be aware that chain link fencing is not allowed. Cedar fencing is
permitted.
4. Also, please note that landscaping the base equipment and fencing is
required.
5. Be sure that the light fixture attached to the pole does not face the
neighboring property but faces internal to the shopping center property.
Also, such light must be equipped such that there is a down -directional
and sharp cut-off fixture to minimize light spillage. The wattage must be
equivalent to that found in the center. We suggest that the south -facing
light be eliminated.
