8. As previous stated by Peter Barnes of the Zoning Department, the
proposed dental office use is permitted in the LMN District and, if
located in a Neighborhood Center, would be subject to an
administrative (Type 1) review and public hearing. Also, the use is
permitted in the District subject to a Planning & Zoning Board
(Type 2) review and public hearing if not located in a Neighborhood
Center.
• The 2 combined uses (proposed dental office and existing
animal hospital) could become part of the existing Sunstone
neighborhood center to the south with the proposed driveway
connection at the southeast corner of the site. This would
provide a mixed -use neighborhood center, between 4 &, 5 acres
in size, with direct vehicular connections to the residential
neighborhood to the east. However, with this option the dental
office and animal hospital may have to become part of the
existing association, subject to their covenants. OK.
• The proposed dental office and existing animal hospital could
create their own neighborhood center since they each represent
a different use (small animal veterinary facility and clinic) in a
neighborhood center. However, it is still necessary that the
driveway connection between the 2 centers remain so that there
is direct access to this center from the surrounding
neighborhood via local streets. The one access point to the
dental office and animal hospital directly from South Timberline
Road would not satisfy the requirement. OK.
9. This development request will be subject to the Development
Review Fee Schedule that is available in the Development Review
Center office. The fees are due at the time of submittal of the
required documents for the Project Development Plan and Final
Plan phases of development review by City staff and affected
outside reviewing agencies. OK.
10. This development proposal is subject to the requirements as set
forth in the City's LUC, specifically Articles 2. Administration
9
* Be designated on the plat as an Emergency Access
Easement (EAE). OK.
* Maintain the required minimum width of 20 feet
throughout the length of the fire lane. OK.
If a fire lane cannot be provided, the building shall be fire
sprinklered. 97UFC 901.2.2.1; 901.3; 901.4.2; 902.2.1
NOTE: The two drive aisles around the property may need to
be dedicated as an EAE (drive aisles to north and east of
property). This will be dependent on final site plan layout.
b. WATER SUPPLY
Fire hydrants, where required, must be the type approved by
the water district having jurisdiction and the Fire
Department. Hydrant spacing and water flow must meet
minimum requirements based on type of occupancy.
Minimum flow and spacing requirements include:
Commercial - 1,500 gpm at 20 psi residual pressure,
spaced not further than 300 feet to the building, on
600-foot centers thereafter. OK.
These requirements may be modified if buildings are
equipped with automatic fire sprinkler systems.
97UFC 901.2.2.2
C. ADDRESS NUMERALS
Address numerals shall be visible from the street fronting
the property, and posted with a minimum of 6 inch
numerals on a contrasting background. (Bronze numerals
on brown brick are not acceptable). 97UFC901.4.4 OK.
d. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Toxic, corrosive, or reactive materials, or
flammable/combustible liquids (as defined in the Uniform
Fire Code) if used, stored, or handled on site, must have a
Hazardous Materials Impact Analysis (HMIA) completed and
supplied to the Planning Department and the Fire

will be provided and it will accommodate recycling.
C. Please consider green building aspects with this new
development. Integrated Design Systems should be
considered. OK.
Please contact Dana, at 224-6143, if you have questions about
these comments.
7. Carie Dann of the Poudre Fire Authority offered the following
comments:
a. REQUIRED ACCESS
Fire access roads (fire lanes) shall be provided for every
facility, building or portion of a building hereafter
constructed or moved into or within the PFA's jurisdiction
when any portion of the facility or any portion of an exterior
wall of the first story of the building is located more than 150
feet from fire apparatus access as measured by an approved
route around the exterior of the building or facility. A fire
lane may be required. A fire lane shall be visible by painting
and signage, and maintained unobstructed at all times. A
fire lane plan shall be submitted for approval prior to
installation. In addition to the design criteria already
contained in relevant standards and policies, any new fire
lane must meet the following general requirements:
* Be designed as a flat, hard, all-weather driving surface
(asphalt or concrete) capable of supporting fire
apparatus weights. Compacted road base shall be
used only for temporary fire lanes or at construction
sites. Concrete surface will be provided.
* Have appropriate maintenance agreements that are
legally binding and enforceable. OK.

a the same time. Porous pavement is considered to be 40%
impervious. Since the issue of this letter, it was brought to
our attention that the Porous pavement should not longer be
considered due to maintenance issues. Please see related
civil drawings for more information on drainage.
e. The existing 15" storm sewer may not be large enough to
carry the 100-year increased runoff from the proposed site
development. If not, some on -site water quantity detention
may be required. Normally developments are required to
detain the 100-year developed runoff and release at the 2-
year historic rate. See ST1 for more information.
Please contact Glen, at 224-6065, if you have questions about
these comments.
5. Alan Rutz of the Light & Power Department offered the following
comments:
a. There is an existing electric transformer for the animal
hospital to the north. If it is large enough, the animal
hospital and this new dental office could share the
transformer. OK.
b. A C-1 Commercial Form must be filled out to help determine
the electric needs for this new development. Please
coordinate this with Light & Power. OK.
C. The normal electric development charges will apply to this
request. OK.
Please contact Alan, at 224-6153, if you have questions about
these comments.
6. Dana Leavitt, the City's Environmental Planner, offered the
following comments:
a. There are existing trees on the site that must be inspected
and evaluated by Tim Buchanan, the City Forester, for
their significance and condition before they could be
proposed to be removed, if that should be considered by the
Applicant. Tim can be reached at 221-6361. OK.
6
Please contact Roger, at 221-6854, if you have questions about
these comments.
4. Glen Schlueter of the Stormwater Utility offered the following
comments:
a. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin
design of the Fox Meadows Master Drainage Basin Update,
as well as the City's Design Criteria and Construction
Standards. OK.
b. The City-wide development fee is $3,070 per acre for new
impervious area over 350 square feet. No fee is charged for
existing impervious area. This fee is to be paid at the time of
issuance of a building permit. The site is in Inventory Grid
#12P. OK.
C. Please refer to the Final Drainage Report for the Speights
PUD, dated June, 1992. That report did not consider Lot 7 to
be developed; therefore, a drainage and erosion control
report and construction plans are required and they must be
prepared by a professional engineer registered in the State of
Colorado. Portions of the previous report were given to the
Applicant at the conceptual review meeting on December 17,
2007. See Preliminary Drainage Report dated 23 December
2008.
d. The 1992 report provided documentation that the site
drainage runoff would discharge ahead of the peak flow in
the Sunstone channel to the north of this site. That still may
be the case for Lot 7; however, since 1992, the rainfall
criteria was increased in 1999 and water quality treatment is
now required. Water quality treatment methods are
described in the Urban Storm Drainage Criteria Manual,
Volume 3 - Best Management Practices (BMP's). Extended
detention is the usual method selected for water quality
treatment. Porous pavement was discussed at the
conceptual review meeting, which may be a good option
considering the proposed site layout and the availability of
the 15" storm sewer for a discharge point of a porous
pavement underdrain system. Porous pavement could
reduce water quanti detention volume and treat the runoff
s
k. A Development Agreement and a Development
Construction Permit will be required for this new dental
office. OK.
1. The City's Transportation Development Review Fees apply
to this new dental office. The fees will be collected by the
Engineering Department at the time of submittals of the PDP
and Final Plan documentation to the Development Review
Center. Please contact Susan, at 221-6605, for the actual
amount of the fees due. OK.
M. This new development will be subject to the Larimer County
Road Impact Fees and any public improvements must be
built according to the Larimer County Urban Area Street
Standards. OK.
Please contact Susan, at 221-6605, if you have questions about
these comments.
3. Roger Buffington of the Water/Wastewater Department offered
the following comments:
a. There are existing 8" water and 8" sanitary sewer mains
located in the driveway easement on the animal hospital
property to the north of this site. OK.
b. Water and sanitary sewer mains were extended onto 3820
South Timberline Road when it was developed. It appears
that water & sanitary sewer services were also extended to
this site. If these services exist and are sized properly they
may be used for the dental office. If not used, the services
must be abandoned at the main and new services installed.
OK.
C. The City's water conservation standards for landscaping and
irrigation systems will apply to this site. Information on
these standards can be obtained at the Water Department
and the Planning 8s Zoning Department. OK.
d. Plant investment fees and water rights will apply to this
development and they will be due at time of issuance of
building permits. OK.

6820, and Denise Weston of the Transportation Planning
Department, at 416-2643, to determine what information
may be needed in the TIS pertaining to Level of Service for
vehicle, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes of
transportation. 7 copies of TIS have been provided.
d. There may be dedication of access and emergency access
easements needed on this property if they are not already in
place. These dedications can be done through separate
documents. A replat of Lot 7 is not necessary unless the
Applicant wants to do one in association with the PDP.
Applicant does not want to do a replat.
e. Please contact Ward Stanford, the City's Traffic Engineer,
for possible requirements for a median in South Timberline
Road for access control into this site, limiting it to a right-
in/right-out only. A TIS would help determine whether one is
needed or not. Ward can be reached at 221-6820. OK.
f. Several of the proposed parking stalls along the south side of
the access drive may be too close to South Timberline Road.
The required parking separation is based on safety
considerations. Parking has been revised to meet separation
requirements.
g. The property owner/developer will be responsible for the
repair/replacement of any damaged curb, gutter, or sidewalk
along the property frontage to South Timberline Road. OK.
h. A cross -access connection to existing neighborhood center
development (Sunstone Mixed -Use) to the south is needed.
OK.
Please contact Carie Dann of the Poudre Fire Authority for
information on their emergency access requirements. She
can be reached at 416-2869. OK.
j. The required street trees should be planted in the "ultimate"
location so that they will not have to be moved when the 3rd
travel lane and new detached sidewalk go in along this
property's frontage to South Timberline Road. See
Landscape Plans.

C. At least 1 handicapped parking space is required, per
Section 3.2.2(K)(5) of the LUC. One handicapped space has
been provided.
d. Bicycle parking must be provided in a convenient and secure
location near the primary entry to the building, in the
amount of 5% of the number of vehicle parking spaces on
the site. This requirement is set forth in Section 3.2.2(C)(4)(a)
of the LUC. Bicycle parking has been provided - see
landscape plan.
e. Any trash enclosure must be compatible with the building
(materials, colors, etc.) and must be designed and sized to
accommodate recycling. Please see attached email from Tom
Kalert, principal of Architecture Plus, to Shiloh Lindsey,
owner, with regards to the trash enclosure. The enclosure
will be provided and it will accommodate recycling.
f. The building placement on the site must comply with the
"build -to" lines as set forth in Section 3.5.3(13)(2)(c) of the
LUC. In this case the "build -to" line would be 10' to 25' from
the right-of-way line for South Timberline Road. OK.
Please contact Peter, at 416-2355, if you have questions about
these comments.
2. Susan Joy of the Engineering Department offered the following
comments:
a. The standard utility plan submittal requirements will apply
to this development request. OK.
b. Street oversizing fees will apply to this development request.
The fees are based on vehicle trip generation for the
proposed land uses in the development plan. Please contact
Matt Baker of Engineering, at 224-6108, for detailed
information on the fees. The fees will be collected at the time
