03/23/2011: The school exhibits a very high level of integrity, and the property has been
determined to be eligible for individual recognition as a Fort Collins Landmark, for both its
architectural and historical significance to the community. Additionally, the property has

and on the State Register of Historic Properties.

Topic: General
Number: 1 Created: 03/22/2011
03/22/2011: 24-95 of the City Code along with 3.6.2.(J)(2) of the Land Use Code would
stipulate that paving the alley abutting the property would be an obligation associated with
the development proposal. The response letter indicates a potential that paving the alley
could result in an adverse impact to neighboring properties, have there been preliminary
design attempts, perhaps attempting to slope the alley to the south to drain to the valley
pan, that would seek to direct drainage away from the northern properties?
Number: 2 Created: 03/22/2011
03/22/2011: The amount of right-of-way dedication that the City would seek for Shields
Street would be 21 feet which would result in a 51 foot half right-of-way in conformance
with our constrained arterial right-of-way cross section total of 102 feet.
Number: 3 Created: 03/22/2011
03/22/2011: The proposal of an attached sidewalk along Scott Avenue would typically
require a variance request to the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards for
evaluation as attached sidewalks are not the standard design for City streets. A submitted
variance request would then require input from Current/Transportation Planning identifying
that they would not object to an attached sidewalk. There is also an existing utility pole
directly south of the alley that would be in the middle of the proposed attached sidewalk
which would also appear to be problematic. Is the utility pole being undergrounded with the
project?
