HomeMy WebLinkAboutFORT COLLINS BREWERY - PDP - 32-08 - CORRESPONDENCE - (7)http://www.fcgov.com/recycling/pdf/enclosure-guidelines0804.pdf. Please consult this
document to determine the size and appropriate design for your enclosure. If refuse
areas are contained within the facility and recycling practices will be in place within the
facility please provide a letter documenting the recycling procedures so that this
subsection can be waived.
2. During a previous conceptual review of this property, it was determined that there is a
potential wetland on the site. A site visit including Dana Leavitt will be required to
confirm this and determine if a Wetland Delineation will be required. Guidelines for
conducting this delineation may be found under section 3.4.1 (D) (2) of the Fort Collins
Land Use Code (LUC). These wetlands may be considered jurisdictional wetlands by the
Army Corps of Engineers. A jurisdictional determination letter will be required from the
Corps and possibly Corps permits to provide proof of compliance meeting section 3.4.1
(0) of the LUC.
3. Components of green building could be integrated into your project. The following city
supported programs include: Deconstruction/Construction Debris, Natural Resources,
John Armstrong, 416-2230; Electric Efficiency Program, Utilities, John Phelan, 416-
2539.

1. (For commercial projects over 5000sf): Financial incentives and technical support are
available from Fort Collins Utilities' Integrated Design Assistance Program (IDAP). This
program provides design support with the goal of making facilities more energy efficient
and thereby less costly to operate. Early participation is critical to obtaining optimal
energy savings. See www.fcgov.com/idap for details or contact Gary.

1. This site is located in the 500-year floodplain of the Cache la Poudre River. No new
critical facilities may be constructed in the 500-year floodplain, and any existing critical
facilities shall not be expanded.
2. This property is protected from the 100-year storm by the Oxbow Levee on the Cache la
Poudre River.
3. Marsha Hilmes-Robinson is the Floodplain Administrator for the Poudre River basin.
Any floodplain administration questions, comments, or concerns should be referred to
Marsha at 224-6036.
4. The primary drainage issue with this site is that the outfall is a channel along Lincoln
Ave. The channel has downstream constraints that cause frequent flooding of property
in Larimer County. Therefore, the County Engineering Department will need to approve
the drainage plan. In the past, other sites have had to detain two times the 100 year
runoff and release it manually into the channel after the flow in the channel has lowered
to where the properties downstream will not flood. On one project the County allowed a
very small release rate. The contacts at Larimer County are Rex Burns (498-5721) or
Tracy Downs (498-5701).
5. This site may have a different release rate because of the flooding issue but normally in
the Dry Creek basin the two year historic release rate is 0.2 cfs/acre. Water quality
treatment is required as described in the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual, Volume
3 — Best Management Practices (BMPs). Extended detention is the usual method
selected for water quality treatment; however, all BMPs are encouraged and may reduce
the water quality capture volume requirement.
6. If Lemay Avenue is required to be built to its ultimate configuration, there is a bottleneck
in the storm sewer that crosses Lemay Avenue which needs to be corrected. The
biggest issue with correcting the problem is that a water line would need to be lowered.
Also, if curb and gutter is required along Lincoln and Lemay, the channels may need to
be piped unless the Engineering Department allows the ditches to remain in the ROW.
Another option would be to rebuild the channels in an easement along side the streets.
7. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Dry Creek
Master Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria and Construction standards.
8. The city wide development fee is $4,420/acre ($0.1015/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 each building permit is issued.
Water Wastewater
Contact Info: Roger Buffington, 221-6854, rbuffington@fcgov.com
1. Existing mains: 16-inch water in Lincoln, 24-inch water in Lemay; 24-inch sanitary sewer
in a N/S alignment on the property line between Vanworks and the mini -storage, 15-inch
sewer in N/S alignment east of the new bank on east side of Lemay.
2. The sewer west of the mini -storage is likely the easier of the two to access. Connection
to this sewer would involve extending an 8-inch sewer east from the existing 24-inch
sewer across the front of the proposed site terminating with a manhole.
3. The water conservation standards for landscape and irrigation will apply.
4. Development fees and water rights will be due at time of building permit.

5. You will need to design and improve Lincoln and Lemay. There may be.interim and
ultimate scenarios which have street oversizing reimbursement implications.
6. Utility plans, a Development Agreement (DA), a Development Construction Permit
(DCP) and plat are required for this project.
7. Contact me to arrange a meeting to scope out the design of the improvements. You'll
probably also want to coordinate with North Star Engineering who has done the design
work for the project across the street at the northeast corner of Lincoln and Lemay.
8. The access points on Lincoln and Lemay are likely not to current standards. They will
require variances and may be changed to right -in -right -out accesses.
Transportation Planning
Contact Info: Kristin Kirkpatrick, 416-2040, kkirkpatrick@fcgov.com
1. Please provide plenty of bike parking spaces. The brewery area is popular for bikers
and near a major bike trail.
2. After a discussion of this site at our weekly transportation coordination meeting, we
determined that a concrete sidewalk along Lincoln will be required and based on the
future right-of-way width established by the Master Street Plan. The sidewalk would
need to be constructed based on the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards
(LCUASS). Some interim modifications may be needed as it connects with the existing
temporary asphalt sidewalk along Lemay, which will suffice.
3. The existing transit stop onsite will need to be upgraded with this project. Please contact
me to coordinate.
Poudre Fire Authority
Contact Info: Carle Dann, 416-2869, cdann@ poudre-fire.org
1. Ensure that your addressing is visible from Lincoln using at least 6-inch high numerals
on a contrasting background.
2. The project needs to be within 300 feet of a hydrant capable of delivering 1500psi water
at 20psi residual pressure.
3. Since the buildings are over 5000sf total, automatic sprinklers and a Knox box will be
required.
4. An emergency access easement with a minimum fire lane width of 20 feet must be
dedicated with this project. You may dedicate by separate document or show it on a
replat. Curvatures must have a minimum of a 25-foot inside radius and 50-foot outside
radius. The fire lane shall be visible by painting and signage, and maintained
unobstructed. Contact Carie for more detail.

ITEM: 30,000sf building upgrade plus new 7500sf mixed -use buiding at the NW
corner of Lincoln and Lemay
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2008
APPLICANT: Tom Peters
1900 E. Lincoln Avenue #B
Fort Collins, CO 80524
LAND USE DATA: Request to construct a 30,000sf building for use as a brewery and
restaurant and a new 7500sf mixed -use building. The property is located on the northwest
corner of Lincoln and Lemay. The property is in the City of Fort Collins and is zoned (—
Industrial.
COMMENTS: The following departmental agencies have offered comments for this proposal
based on the sketch plan which was presented to the review team:
Zoning
Contact Info: Peter Barnes, 416-2355, pbarnes@fcgov.com
1. Light industrial and mixed -use dwellings are permitted in the 1—Industrial zone district
subject to a Type 1 (Administrative) Review. Depending on whether there is retail or not,
the remaining uses would either be a convenience shopping center (which requires 4
businesses not including the brewery) or just a restaurant, either of which will require the
whole project to go through a Type II (Planning and Zoning Board) review.
2. Parking for the residential component will require a minimum based on the number of
bedrooms. Eight two -bedroom units would require a minimum of 14 parking spaces,
which need to be reserved for the residents only. The remaining uses are subject to
maximum parking requirements. For detailed information on parking requirements, see
Section 3.2.2(K) of the Land Use Code.
3. The buildings will need to be set back 15-25 feet from the property line. If no utilities
need to use the utility easement behind the walk, the set back may be reduced to 10
feet.
