Conceptual Review Submittal
March 17, 2008
Property Location: 5.77 Acres site at the SE corner of W Drake Rd. and S Taft Hill
Rd.
Current Zoning: MMN
Poudre Fire Authority (PFA) wishes to purchase a new site for a future Station #4 that
would better serve the rapidly growing neighborhood in their service area. The planned
facility will follow PFA's standard fire station design that has been utilized for their last
three stations. This design maximizes the use of a single story fire station facility, with a
garden level basement, totaling approximately 10,500 square feet of space. Three garage
bays are included for one emergency response engine, and later adding one heavy rescue
vehicle, as mandated by PFA's 2004 Strategic Plan. The remaining garage bay space will
be used for reserve fire apparatus. The site will include a parking area to accommodate
both employees and visitors.
Poudre Fire Authority would like to request that a median cut, for emergency access
only, be allowed through the median located on West Drake Road near the eastern
portion of the propose site. It is estimated that use of this median cut for emergency
access would be less than a half dozen times per day. An emergency signal would also be
installed on West Drake Road, similar to what is now in use at the current facility at
Devonshire and Taft Hill Road.
The existing buildings on the property include a residential home and outbuildings.
These buildings will be demolished. PFA is exploring the possibility of the remainder of
the site be utilized as a park or natural area.
Issues of Interest:
What is the process to request a variance to allow the median cut on W. Drake Road? Is
an additional access point necessary?
What Street Oversizing requirements/fees are there?
What are the parking area/space requirements, if any?
Are there any utilities or stormwater upgrades that will be required?
