HomeMy WebLinkAboutHIDDEN POND ESTATES - PDP - 11-07 - CORRESPONDENCE - (7)Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Jenny Nuckols Topic: Zoning Number: 15 Created: 5/24/2007 [5/24/07] Site plan. We don't need a plan showing existing features. Project Notes and Tables should be on the actual site plan. Number: 16 Created: 5/24/2007 [5/24/07] Site Plan: I am unclear as to what all of the dashed lines are denoting. The setbacks for the zoning district dictate where the houses can be placed. Not clear where the property lines are. It looks like you are showing them to the middle of the streets. Please clearly label the property lines, easements and remove the dashed lines that seem to show building envelopes on the plat. Number: 17 Created: 5/24/2007 [5/24/07] Please remove topo lines from final site plan. Number: 18 Created: 5/25/2007 [5/25/07] The outline of an existing barn is being shown on the site plan, please remove that. Number: 20 Created: 5/25/2007 [5/25/07] Landscape plan: Add a note to the landscape notes regarding installation of landscaping prior to the issuance of a CO 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. Sincerely, ,I,t lbq auux- Shelby Sommer Associate Planner Page 7 Please provide swales to channel lot flows to the roadside swale between lots 2 and 3 , and between lots 12, 13 and 14. Why is the pipe and spillway for Pond B not located at the low point ? Provide erosion protection downstream of spillway. Pond B is proposed with no water quality outlet structure, please revise to include water quality structure and volume otherwise all the road runoff would go untreated. Please provide some erosion protection such as matting between Pond C outfall and existing pipe into the ditch. Flows from Hidden Pond Drive into Pond C will wash out the path as soon as it rains, please provide an adequate culvert crossing. Please provide a letter of intent from the North Poudre Irrigation company for draining into ditch. Topic: Water/Sewer Number: 23 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] Please label all fittings and appurtenances. Please call out length of water main between valves and fittings. Please call out a thrust block and a 6" gate valve at the point where the water line ties into the existing water main in Ziegler. The main in Ziegler is a cathodically protected line. Please indicate that on the utility plan. Please add to the note that if ductile iron is used then, contractor shall provide a minimum 2 foot long isolating section prior to connecting to the cathodically protected main in Ziegler. Since Ziegler is being built at this stage by the City, it would be a good idea to coordinate with City's Street Oversizing program to have the City install the water and sewer connections during their construction as to eliminate the need to tear up the recently completed street improvements. Please add a note to the plat indicating that the proposed grinder pumps are to be owned and maintained by the individual property owners and the sewer forced main shall be owned and maintained by the HOA. Please see redlines for additional comments. Page 6 Number: 4 Created: 5/18/2007 [5/18/07] If you would like to consider a lower level of lighting since this is a "private" sort of area, please let me know. On the public drives, we can make provisions for lighting at a normal level, but only install necessary lights. City lights aren't installed on private drives. Number: 5 Created: 5/18/2007 [5/18/07] It may be helpful to have a utility coordination meeting since the cul-de-sac street frontages are small. Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carie Dann Topic: Fire Number: 30 Created: 5/30/2007 [5/30/07] STREET NAME: According to the Larimer County "Rules of the Street," continuous roads should have continuous names. Based on that, where Hidden Pond Drive makes a 90-degree turn, it should become Pond View Court (the Pond View name should continue, since it's the straight -running street). For "Rules of the Streets," see hftp://ftp.larimer.org/streets/rules.htm. Number: 31 Created: 5/30/2007 [5/30/07] AUTOMATIC SPRINKLER INFORMATION ON PLAT: It shall be stated on the final plat that all residences will be equipped with an approved, residential fire - sprinkler system. Number: 32 Created: 5/30/2007 [5/30/07] FIRE LANE: The Emergency Access Easement (fire lane) is required to be maintained by the HOA. This information must be included in the HOA paperwork. Also, if no gravel is laid on the sides of the paved private drive, the "NO PARKING FIRE LANE" signs must be erected in such a way to convey to drivers to not park their vehicles on the paved portion of the road. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewaterlssue Contact: Basil Hamdan Topic: Stormwater Number: 29 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] Please provide a sizing and type for driveway culverts. Show proposed locations. At final please specify lot corner elevations and minimum finished floor elevations for all lots. The pipe outfall between lots 7 and 8 will require erosion protection and possible drop structures. Show swale cross section, may need to move proposed path further east so it is not washed away during larger storm events. Page 5 [5/29/07] The applicant is responsible for requesting the vacation of the row out to Ziegler after project approval at the public hearing. The City will retain the area as an access easement so that this property does not become landlocked. We want to wait until after the hearing to verify that the project will go forward before we proceed with the vacation. This development will still be responsible for the maintenance of the drive and the landscaped area within the access easement. If the row is vacated, the sidewalk connection to Ziegler does NOT have to be concrete, it can match whatever is going in the development. The sidewalk will only need to become concrete again where the Ziegler row exists. If Council does not agree to vacate the row, then the old comment from Conceptual Review applies. A note on the plat, site, landscape and utility plans must be placed stating that the City will never maintain or accept the maintenance of the private drive. In addition, the force main is considered a private utility and private utilities require a permit and yearly fee. This permit and fee does not apply if the area becomes private. Number: 24 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] This development must provide Engineering with a copy of the HOA covenants showing that the HOA is responsible for the maintenance of the private road within the development and that they have set up a budget in order to do that. Number: 25 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] Both variances were received and approved. Please place a note under line 48 of the General Notes of the utility plan stating the approval of each section and variance. Number: 26 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] From Technical Services: 1. Boundary and legal close. 2. Make "Plat of smaller letters and on top of the title. 3. Building envelopes and set backs are not necessary. 4. Ownership of the tracts, who maintains? 5. Natural Resource Buffer needs to be geometrically defined. Can be somewhat squared off - stop at Lot 5, 8, 9, and 10 lot lines. Number: 27 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] More detailed comments will be provided with the first round of final review. Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Janet McTague Topic: General Number: 3 Created: 5/18/2007 [5/18/07] Power to this project will come from Ziegler. It would be good to coordinate with other utilities since all utilities will likely come from Ziegler. Page 4 (5/23/07] Please remove the building envelopes from the subdivision plat. You are required to show the building envelope on the site plan. Number: 8 Created: 5/23/2007 [5/23/07] Please add a tract table to the subdivision plat. This table should include ownership and maintenance information for each tract in the subdivision. Also, remember that as required in cluster developments, at least 50 percent of the site area must be preserved as permanent, private open space. It looks like Tract C will satisfy this requirement, but please indicate so in the tract table. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Dana Leavitt Topic: Plat Number: 33 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] Adjust the Buffer Line where it intersects the rear lot lines. The buffer line will run next to the lot lines. Show on all plans. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Shelby Sommer Topic: Site Plan Number: 10 Created: 5/23/2007 (5/23/07] Please dimension sidewalk and private drive widths on site plan and indicate what surface(s) are proposed for pathways/sidewalks. Per the Land Use Code (Section 3.5.2(C)) each dwelling unit must orient to a connecting walkway (sidewalk). Please work with David Averill to determine how wide and what surface this walkway/sidewalk should be. Number: 11 Created: 5/23/2007 [5/23/07] Is any new fencing proposed? The symbol for the existing fence along the western edge of the property did not print clearly. Will this remain or will you be removing it? Number: 12 Created: 5/23/2007 [5/23/07] Please remove the topo/contour lines from the site plan as they will not scan well. The existing contours on the landscape plan area also very light and will not scan. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Susan Joy Topic: General Number: 21 Created: 5/29/2007 [5/29/07] OK to go to hearing with the condition that a satisfactory pedestrian system throughout the development is provided. The applicant will need to work with Shelby, David Averill in Transportation Planning and myself to determine the appropriate typical drive/street section. The current configuration showing 3 separate crossings is a safety hazard and will not be acceptable to the City. Some sort of pathway system throughout the neighborhood is required as well. Number: 22 Created: 5/29/2007 Page 3 [6/4/07] The natural area buffer in Lot 1 needs to have a legal description with meets and bounds. Tangents will be sufficient. Revise all other plans to reflect final location of line. Number: 36 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] A Limit of Development (LOD) line needs to be established and approved by Dana Leavitt and shown on all plans. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Shelby Sommer Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 13 Created: 5/23/2007 [5/23/07] If possible please show the proposed utility lines on the landscape plan so we can determine if there are any conflict areas with proposed landscaping. Number: 14 Created: 5/23/2007 [5/23/07] Please be more specific with regards to the plant schedule by either adding more information to the plant schedule and/or identify specify quantities and locations on the plant list. Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Dana Leavitt Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 37 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] The open space shall be revegetated with native grass and shrub species. A mix of native plant and pasture gasses is not compatible. Number: 38 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] It is highly recommended that the covenants for the project include a standard for transitioning from a manicured formal landscape into a natural landscape between the rear of the building envelopes and the property lines adjacent to the open space and buffer areas. Number: 39 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] Provide a program to remove the isolated clumps of Siberian Elms in the buffer area and add additional native trees and shrubs. This could take place in a one to two year time frame. Additional plant materials are needed behind the lots in the buffer areas to enhance the value of the habitat in the buffer area. Number: 40 Created: 6/4/2007 [6/4/07] Any fencing along the rear of the lots is required to be compatible with the buffer area. Open fencing with wire mesh is the acceptable alternative. Please provide information on the proposed method to be used.
