Otherwise, one gets the impression that the land uses are going to be the existing
group home plus the new proposed apartments.
The Poudre Fire Authority will require that the building be equipped with an
automatic fire extinguishing system. A "Knox Box" is required to be placed on the
front of the building. For further information, please contact Michael Chavez, Poudre
Fire Authority, 221-6570.
A low screen wall along Laurel Street would help improve the streetscape by
partially blocking the view of the parked cars. If there is an encroachment into the
utility easement, then permission from the affected utility would be needed. The
City's Engineering Department can assist in contacting this utility.
Be sure to update the architectural drawings for the public hearing.
The electrical meters on the north side of the building must be accessible for the
meter reader. Partial landscaping is acceptable.
Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit. If you have any
questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please
feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750.

[5/12/04] The bike rack location needs to be moved to a more visible location closer
to the entrance and not located in some remote section of the parking lot
where access to the rack will be constrained when cars are parked in the
stalls directly in front of the rack. See red lines for suggested location.

[5/5/04] The reference to the group home has been removed from the Land Use
Statistics box. However, other changes have been made in the box that are
confusing. For instance, under land uses, it states that there are 20, 2-
bedroom apts. and 4, 2-bedroom apartments. Does that mean that all 24 of
the units are 2 bedroom apartments? If so, then why not just state that there
are 24, 2-bedroom apts. Or is it supposed to be that the 4, 2-bedroom
apartments listed are really supposed to be 4, l'-bedroom apartments? Also,
it's stated that there are 43 parking spaces required. If all 24 of the units are
2-bedrooms, then 42 parking spaces are required. If 20 of them are 2-
bedrooms and 4 are 1-bedrooms, then 41 parking spaces are required. So I
don't know why they state that 43 spaces are required.
[3/12/04] In the Land Use Statistics box, under "Land Uses", need to clarify that the
"Existing Group Home (104 residents)" is going to be abandoned/demolished.

[5/19/04] The main entry to the building is not readily apparent. This weakens the
traditional relationship of buildings to streets in the area, with building fronts and
doorways establishing the relationship. This comment is a suggestion to the
architects to emphasize the entrance with design or detailing. The architectural
theme is established by the parking area, so something different or something more
might improve the basic urban design relationship.
