1. The City requires a 50' buffer for irrigation ditches that have serve as wildlife corridors, as
per Article 3.4.1(E). During the site visit, staff noted raptors perched within the trees
surrounding the ditch.
2. Within the 50' buffer zone, according to Article 3.4.1(E)(1)(g), the City has the ability to
determine if the existing landscaping within the buffer zone is incompatible with the
purposes of the buffer zone. If it is determined to be insufficient, then restoration and
mitigation measures will be required.
3. With respect to lighting, the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code, in Article 3.2.4(D)(6)
requires that "natural areas and natural features shall be protected from light spillage from
off -site sources." Thus, lighting from the parking areas or other site amenities shall not spill
over to the buffer areas.
4. Applicant will need to designate the area within buffer zone as a Natural Habitats Buffer
Zone. This area will need to be identified on the plat, site plan, landscape plans, lighting
plan, and utility plans, as applicable. A note with the following language will need to be
added to the plat, site plan, landscape plan, and utility plan: "See Article 3.4.1(E) of the
Land Use Code for allowable uses within the Natural Habitats Buffer Zone."
5. The applicant should make note of Article 3.2.1(C) that requires developments to submit
plans that "...(4) protects significant trees, natural systems, and habitat." Note that a
significant tree is defined as a tree having DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of six inches
or more. From staffs site visit on December 17th, it appears that significant trees may be
present on site. Thus, a review of the trees shall be conducted with Tim Buchanan, City
Forester (221-6361) to determine the status of the significant existing trees and any
mitigation requirements as the result of development impacts.
6. The City's green building program has many programs that may benefit your project..
Resources are available at the Green Building web page:
hftp://www.fcgov.com/greenbuilding/. Of particular interest may be the Integrated Design
Assistance Program, which offers financial incentives and free technical support to those
interested in delivering high-performance buildings that exceed building code requirements
for energy performance. Gary Schroeder (970-221-6395) is the contact person for this
program. This is the direct link to the web page for this program:
hftp://www.fcgov.com/conservation/biz-idap.php.
7. Any trash and/or recycling enclosures shall be compatible with the style of architecture of
the building, per Section 3.2.5 of the LUC. Provide adequate space in the dumpster area to

HISTORICAL PRESERVATION
Contact: Karen McWilliams, 970-224-6078, kmcwilliamsQ)fcgov.com
1. While it is not likely that the buildings on this property are historically important, because
some are more than 50 years old, the property will need to be reviewed under the
Demolition/Alteration Review Process (Chapter 14-72). We will need to receive good
photographs of all sides of each building and structure on the property (even newer ones)
for the review. Sufficient photos should be taken to show the current condition of the
building, especially any previous alterations or additions. Digital photos are encouraged,
and may be sent to kmcwilliams@fcgov.com. Hardcopies may be sent to P.O. Box 580,
80522; or dropped off at CDNS, 1 st Floor, 281 N. College Ave. The review takes no more
than two weeks, once the photographs are received. If the buildings are found to be
significant, then the application would be further reviewed under Land Use Code Section
3.4.7.
2. If the property is significant, and if the owner chooses to, the property can become
recognized as a Fort Collins Landmark. This allows the owner to access financial
incentives for preservation, including 20 % State Tax Credits, 20% Federal Tax Credits
and no interest loans of up to $7,500 each year. Please contact Karen McWilliams for
additional information.
3. If thru the alteration/demolition process it is determined that your property needs to be
reveiwed by the Landmark Preservation Commission, they meet the second Wednesday of
every month. Please contact Karen McWilliams to be put on the agenda.
FIRE AUTHORITY

1. WATER SUPPLY
Fire hydrants, where required, must be the type approved by the water district having
jurisdiction and the Fire Department. Hydrant spacing and water flow must meet minimum
requirements based on type of occupancy. Minimum flow and spacing requirements
include:
• Commercial and multi -family dwellings 1,500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced
not further than 300 feet to the building, on 600-foot centers thereafter
• Residential within Urban Growth Area, 1,000 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced
not further than 400 feet to the building, on 800-foot centers thereafter
• Residential outside Urban Growth Area, 500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure, spaced
not further than 400 feet to the building, on 800-foot centers thereafter.
A hydrant located across an arterial does not "count" unless a structure is eequppied with

WATER -WASTEWATER ENGINEERING

1. Water and wastewater services in this area are provided by the Fort Collins -Loveland
Water District and the South Fort Collins Sanitation District. These districts can be
contacted at 226-3104.
STORMWATER ENGINEERING
Contact: Glen Schlueter, 970-224-6065, aschlueter(aMcgov.com
1. It is important to document the existing impervious area since drainage requirements and
fees are based on new impervious area. An exhibit showing the existing and proposed
impervious areas is required.
2. Since there will be an increase in imperviousness greater than 1000 square feet, a
drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required and must be
prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado.
3. When there is an impervious area increase greater than 1000 square feet, onsite detention
is required. Detention ponds are required to have a 2 year historic release rate for water
quantity. Parking lot detention for water quantity is allowed as long as it is not deeper than
one foot. The detention area will need to be in a dedicated drainage easement. The outfall
for the site is probably Trilby Road. The design engineer will need to verify where the
increased runoff goes after it leaves the site. If it crosses onto private property, an offsite
drainage easement may be needed.
4. Part of bringing the site into compliance with the Land Use Code is to provide water quality
treatment as described in the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual, Volume 3 - Best
Management Practices (BMPs).
S. There is an irrigation ditch on the property, and it appears there is a lateral branching from
it. Both the irrigation company and the lateral owners will need to accept/approve any site
improvement construction plans. The primary ditch contact is the NORTH LOUDEN DITCH
AND RESERVOIR COMPANY, Jack Fetig, President - 226-4924, Mark Lang, Sec-Treas -
667-4314, Randolf Starr, and Attorney - 667-1029. They may have knowledge of the users
of the lateral.
6. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Fossil Creek
Drainage Master Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria and Construction
standards.

"office" that is also allowed as a type 2 review and the warehouse portion maybe viewed as
secondary to the office. Please provide documentation as to the square footage alloted for
each use.
3. If the predominant use of the structure is warehouse, the applicant can apply for an
"Addition of a permitted Use" for the property which is also a type 2 review. The code
