HomeMy WebLinkAboutBELLA VIRA - PDP - 36-05A - CORRESPONDENCE - (10)Number: 95 Created: 4 / 20 / 2006 [4/20/061 At final, there needs to be some reconfiguration of the water services in the multi -family area. The meter pits are directly adjacent to the driveways or sandwiched between two driveways. The meter pits are not traffic rated and there is a good chance they will be driven over being so close to the pavement. There should be ample room to move these to another location along each building. A distance of 5 feet from the driveway to the edge of the meter pit would be adequate. Number: 97 Created: 4/ 20/ 2006 [4/20/06] Water/Wastewater is ready for a hearing. At final design, additional detailed comments may be presented. Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: Zoning Number: 5 Created: 12 / 23 / 2005 [4/6/06] I understand the applicant is requesting a modification to this standard. If the modification is approved, then this is resolved. [12/23/051 Section 4.2(E)(2)(b) limits the maximum density in the RF cluster plan to not more than 1 unit per gross acre. The gross area of the RF portion is a little over 15 acres, meaning that the maximum number of dwelling units in the cluster plan is limited to 15. They are proposing 20 dwelling units. The Bella Vira, PDP is being scheduled for the May 18, 2006, Planning and Zoning Board public hearing. Be sure and return all red -lined plans when you re -submit or submit Final Compliance plans. If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please feel free to call me at 221-6341. Yours Truly, Steve Olt City Planner cc: Dan DeLaughter Jim Sell Design/Matt Blakely Current Planning file #36-05A Page 9 Number: 70 Created: 2 / 6 / 2006 [4/ 19/06] Again, this pertains to the multi -family dwellings on Bella Vita Drive. The Fire Department Connections (FDCs) must be on the fire lane side, so they are accessible. [2/6/06] An approved automatic fire sprinkler system shall be installed throughout multi -family dwellings three or more stories in height. Number: 92 Created: 4/ 19/2006 [4/ 19/06] We require a Knox Box be mounted to the appropriate structure(s) so we can access the automatic -sprinkler riser room(s) supplying the multi -family dwellings. Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: David Averill Topic: General Number: 57 Created: 1 / 13 / 2006 [4/ 18/06] Repeat comment/question. [1/ 13/06] Would it be possible to better align the pedestrian crossing of West Elizabeth (west side of Overland) so that the crossing isn't skewed. I understand that there are some utility conflicts but would like to see if we can fix this. Thanks. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Stormwater Number: 96 Created: 4/20/2006 [4/20/06] Stormwater is ready for a hearing. At final, detailed comments may be offered once more information is presented. Topic: Water/Wastewater Number: 45 Created: 1 / 10 / 2006 [4/20/061 Easement is adequate. Will need to see official documents during final compliance. [ 1 / 10/ 06] The tap to the existing 16-inch water main needs to be in a utility easement as well as the new line entering the site. This may require an off -site utility easement. Number: 93 Created: 4/20/2006 [4/20/06] At final, please provide water service sizing calculations to determine if a 1-inch service will be adequate for the 5 and 6-plex buildings. Number: 94 Created: 4/20/2006 [4/20/06] At final, please provide calculations for the sizing of the insulation thickness for the 16-inch waterline. Page 8 require a modification to the Land Use Code, or pulling and re -submitting after the new private drive standards are approved. With the latter option, all new Transportation Development Review fees would apply. Number: 26 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] The request has been granted. [12/29/05] A variance request will be needed to eliminate the 9' utility easement on the north side of Elizabeth. Topic: Technical Services Number: 98 Created: 4/20/2006 [4/20/06] Tech. Services Comments: 1. Easements need to be locatable on the plat. 2. Note the origin of ROW dedication for Overland Trail. 3. Fix overlapping text. Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carie Dann Topic: fire Number: 67 Created: 2 / 6/ 2006 [4/ 19/06] This issue is revolved. However, I wanted to note that this private drive is now named Bella Vita Drive. Also, we need to ensure it is designated EAE on the plat. [2/6/06] The private drive shown as Vira Drive shall be a fire lane and shown on the plat as an emergency access easement. Vira Drive is required to be an unobstructed 20-foot-wide fire lane, signed "FIRE LANE - NO PARKING" and painted with red curbs, and it shall meet the remainder of the design criteria for fire lanes stipulated in section 3.6.6 of the FCLUC. Number: 68 Created: 2/6/2006 ' [4/ 19/06] This is now Bella Vita Drive. We request that buildings are numbered in a clockwise fashion beginning with the first building we access. Therefore, entering Bella Vita Drive from the east access, the buildings should be numbered as follows: The building shown on the site plan as #5 should be #1; shown Bldg 6 should be 2; shown Bldg 2 should be 3; shown Bldg 1 should be 4; shown Bldg 3 should be 5; and shown Bldg 4 should be 6. Also, we require monument signs at each access point to Bella Vita Drive, showing building numbers accessed on that private drive. [2/6/06] The multi -family dwellings on Vira Drive shall be addressed with consecutive numerals; the two buildings on the inside tract shall have odd numerals and the buildings on the outside shall have even numerals. Addresses on the structures shall be visible from Vira Drive, mounted on the buildings with numerals at least six inches high on a contrasting background. (Bronze numerals on brown brick are not allowed.) Monument signage showing the building addresses shall also be mounted at each entry onto Vira Drive, from Elizabeth Street. Page 7 [12/29/05] Sheet 7: In several locations, you're showing offsite grading to tie in your contours. Grading and/or construction easements would be required in these locations with letters of intent from the affected property owners received prior to hearing. This also applies on the south side of the site, where it appears that you plan to construct sidewalk along the FC- Loveland Water District's frontage. Number: 16 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/05] Where slopes exceed 4:1 affecting public improvements, our standards (LCUASS 7.7.2) require retaining walls. It's appears that these slopes are exceeded near the storm drain pipes under Elizabeth. Number: 19 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/05] Please label and dimension all existing and proposed sidewalks and accesses. Topic: Landscape plan Number: 88 Created: 4 / 7 / 2006 [4/7/06] Add dimension arrows for the easements on the site and landscape plans. Topic: Plat Number: 7 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] Repeat [12/29/051 Remove centerlines on easements- they just clutter the drawing. Topic: Streets Number: 21 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] [ 12 / 29 / 05] Flowline profiles will be needed in addition to centerline profiles for final compliance. Also at final, we'll want to see station and approximate locations of all utility crossings, and driveways. Number: 22 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/05] Sheet 10: Please reference the design mentioned in Sunflower Dr. note. Number: 24 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] (PH) [12/29/05] Under the standards at the time of this submittal, it is not permissable to have a named private drive. The proposed layout would be ok for an unnamed private drive, but to pursue a named one would either Page 6 Number: 81 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] Please remove the car shapes from the utility plans - they only clutter the sheet. Number: 82 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] Label and dimension all utility easements on the utility sheets. Number: 83 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] The section of Elizabeth between the eastern Bella Vita access and Overland Trail should not have any parking on -street. Number: 84 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] District Utilities signature block is not included on details sheets. Number: 85 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] Please refer to redlines for additional minor changes and comments. Number: 86 Created: 4 / 7 / 2006 [4/7/06] (PH) The parking space closest to Elizabeth on the eastern portion of Bella Vita Dr. should be eliminated. It defeats the purpose of widening out the entrance Number: 87 Created: 4/7/2006 [4/7/06] (PH) Please add pedestrian access ramps at the ends of all the cul- de-sac bulbs per LCUASS Fig. 7-14. Number: 90 Created: 4/ 19/2006 [4/ 19/06] The Ditch Company should sign all applicable plan sheets, as well as the plat. Number: 91 Created: 4/ 19/2006 [4/ 19/06] Per LCUASS Section 7.7.4, concentrated flows across a sidewalk are not allowed. Engineering has set the maximum area of impervious area allowable at 750 square feet. Please adjust the design of your cul-de-sacs to meet this requirement. This will apply on Fiore Ct. and on Pratolina Ct. Number: 99 Created: 4 / 21 / 2006 [4 / 21 / 06] Please add a splash guard to the other side of the water main vault, and flatten the grade in order to provide more cover over the 16" water line that runs under the area. Topic: Grading plans Number: 11 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] Terry Farrill has indicated that offsite grading on FC Loveland property is ok as shown. Page 5 Appendix E-6, and talk with J.R. in our technical services department regarding how to clean up the drawings. Number: 31 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/051 Refer to redlines for additional minor comments. Number: 55 Created: 1 / 11 / 2006 [4/6/06] Still Missing on detail sheets [ 1 / 11 / 06] District Utilities signature block should be provided on all sheets. Number: 74 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] This plan set would benefit largely from including a separate existing conditions/demolition and removal plan sheet. Then, you can pull off existing features from many other sheets where they are not really needed. Number: 75 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] (PH) Bella Vita Dr. must also be dedicated as an emergency access easement. You will probably want to specify the easement area separately from the Tract A on the plat, since the parking bump outs would not be able to be used if dedicated as emergency access. Number: 76 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] There are many instances of overlapping text and contours on all sheets. Number: 77 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] (PH) Please show the offsite trail connection to the Ponds trail on the SE corner of the site. Number: 78 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] Please extend street profiles to the centerline of intersecting streets. Number: 79 Created: 4 / 6 / 2006 [4/6/06] (PH) On the Overland Trail improvements sheet, you are showing an "interim condition" for the existing access location. This access should be removed and closed, since no phasing has been proposed. Number: 80 Created: 4 / 6/ 2006 [4/6/06] Please show striping to indicate the location of the bike lane north of the barricade. Page 4 Number: 109 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/061 Doug Martine of Light & Power offered the following comment: The issue of the manhole in the gutter area of Overland Trail has been discussed by Light & Power staff. Having a manhole in this position will result in significant water entering the vault. Water in the vault is compounded by the use of magnesium chloride products to de-ice roadways. The resulting corrosion of electric equipment is a major issue that will need to be resolved. This issue will not prevent the project from proceeding to a Planning & Zoning Board public hearing, with the exception of a possible decision to relocate the curb (narrowing the bike lane) being an issue for others such as the Streets Department. Please be aware that if the curb cannot be relocated to the east, it will be necessary for Light & Power to relocate the vault at the developer's expense. Since this is a major substation tie facility (the most major underground line Light & Power installs), the cost of relocation could be well over $20,000.00. Please contact Doug, at 224-6152, if you want to discuss this matter further. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Dan DeLaughter Topic: Details Number: 27 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/051 Provide spot elevations on south side of Overland Access. Also, provide proposed elevations for new edge of pavement (Final compliance issue). Number: 28 Created: 12/29/2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/05] Please provide all necessary details from LCUASS. None of our standard drawings are currently shown. Number: 29 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/05] For vault detail, splash guard is only shown on one side. If not proposed on the other side, change the note, and ensure that there is 1' clear flat area behind the sidewalk. Topic: General Number: 30 Created: 12 / 29 / 2005 [4/6/06] [12/29/051 Scanability is an issue on many of the sheets. Some line types are too light, some overlapping text problems. Please refer to redlines, Page 3 Topic: Landscape plan Number: 100 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/061 Remove the Fort Collins -Loveland Water District, South Fort Collins Sanitation District signature block from Sheet L2 of 5 of the Landscape Plans. Number: 101 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/06] On Sheet L4 of 5 of the Landscape Plans, the trail from West Elizabeth Street to Sunflower Drive should be a 6' wide concrete surface trail. It becomes a 6' wide soft surface trail west of Sunflower Drive to the west property boundary. Number: 102 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/06] On Sheet L4 of 5 of the Landscape Plans, the north property boundary is now the PROPERTY BOUNDARY/L.O.D./CITY LIMITS and the reference to CITY LIMITS must be removed from the south property boundary. The annexation for the Minatta Property is complete. Number: 103 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/06] Correct the double image for Tract B on the south side of the development, close to Banyan Drive, on sheet L4 of 5 of the Landscape Plans. Number: 104 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/06] On Sheet L5 of 5 of the Landscape Plans, the north property boundary is now the PROPERTY BOUNDARY/L.O.D./CITY LIMITS and the reference to CITY LIMITS must be removed from the south and west property boundaries. The annexation for the Minatta Property is complete. Number: 105 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/06] On Sheet L5 of 5, the trail from Fiore Court to Sunflower Drive should be a 6' wide concrete surface trail. It becomes a 6' wide soft surface trail west of Sunflower Drive to the west property boundary. Topic: Utility Plan Number: 108 Created: 4/27/2006 [4/27/061 Terry Farrill of the Fort Collins -Loveland Water District & the South Fort Collins Sanitation District made the following comment: A note is to be shown on all sheets relative to the District's existing 36" water line to indicate that all work near the water line or within the District's easement is to be coordinated with the District prior to commencing work. Please contact Terry, at 226-3104 x 104, if you have questions or require additional information.
