Stormwater Contact Info: Glen Schlueter, 221-6065, gschlueter@fcgov.com 1. It appears as if this project will not increase the impervious area on the site, so no drainage study or grading plan is required. For future projects, if there is an increase in imperviousness greater than 1000 square feet a drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required. These must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. A grading plan is required when there is between 1000 and 350 square feet of new imperviousness, but no drainage study is required. There are no requirements for less than 350 square feet. Correct. No new impervious areas are planned. 2. The design of this site must conform to the drainage basin design of the Canal Importation Master Drainage Plan as well the City's Design Criteria and Construction standards. 4 • If any part of the building facades is over 18 feet in height, add an additional 1 foot of setback to the minimum side setbacks from that property line for each 2 feet in height (or fraction thereof) above 18 feet. • The maximum height is 24 feet. • There are additional requirements in Section 4.8 (F). See plan, please. Current Planning Contact Info: Anne Aspen 221-6206, aaspen@fcgov.com 1. The entire Fort Collins Land Use Code (LUC) is available for your review on the web at hftp://www.colocode.com/ftcollins/landuse/begin.htm 2. This development proposal will be subject to all applicable standards of the Fort Collins Land Use Code (LUC), including Article 3 General Development Standards, and Division 4.7 Neighborhood Conservation — Low Density District. 3. Modification of Standards: Based on what you presented at the conceptual review meeting, you will need to request a modification of standards for the following standards of the Land Use Code: Section 4.7(D)(2) Residential Land Use Standards and 4.7(F)(2)(b) Eave Height. To request a modification, you will need to submit a letter of request. I have attached a sample letter that you can use as a template. A request for modification of standards needs to conform to one of the rationales listed in Section 2.8.2(H) of the Land Use Code. In this case, I think the 'equal to or better than' rationale will be the most appropriate to use. Please draft a letter, send it to me or submit it with your formal application and you and I can work on editing the letter in preparation for presentation to the Hearing Officer. See attached letter, please. 4. When developing your plans for submittal, pay particular attention to the following sections of the Code: • 3.2.1. Landscaping and Tree Protection (you will need to protect existing trees, and may need to provide street trees and planting beds, etc. to current standards) The plans do not call for removal of any trees; however one tree is in close proximity to the proposed addition. As discussed w/ Anne Aspen, we will contact Dana Leavitt after our application is submitted to discuss options on how to protect existing trees. • 3.5.1 Building Standards Please see plans. Great care has been taKen to ensure that addition will comply and blend with architectural characteristics of neighborhood. • 3.5.2 Residential Building Standards See plans, please. The plan calls for the addition to include characteristics found on existing house. • 3.8.19 Supplemental Standards - Setback regulations See site plan, please. The ewsting structure does not infringe on any of the setbacic regulations. The addition to this structure therefore will not encroach on any of the setbacts listed here. • 4.8 (D, E, and F) Neighborhood Conservation — Low Density District 5. 1 will have more detailed comments once I have more detailed plans to review. 6. An exhaustive list of submittal requirements for this type of project is available at http://fcgov.com/currentplanning/pdf/project-dev-plan.pdf. There is a submittal checklist at http://fcgov.com/currentplanning/pdf/pdp.pdf. Please let me know if you have any questions about the requirements for your submittal. 7. Neighborhood Meeting: Though a neighborhood meeting is not required for this project, I strongly suggest that you contact me prior to submitting your application so that we can set one up. This neighborhood has been very interested in the changes that are occurring in there and will appreciate a chance to discuss the plans early on. Scheduled for Tuesday, November 21e, 4:30 @ Putnam Elementary 3 ITEM: 1734 W. Mountain accessory building with habitable space MEETING DATE: September 17, 2007 APPLICANT: Bryan Soth High Craft Builders 429 S. Howes Street Fort Collins, CO 80521 LAND USE DATA: Request to add habitable space over the existing garage at 1734 W. Mountain for use by the innkeeper of the Inn at City Park which is housed in the primary structure onsite. The property is within the City of Fort Collins and is zoned NCL—Neighborhood Conservation — Low Density District. The site is 17,820sf. The following departmental agencies have offered comments for this proposal. COMMENTS: Zoning Contact Info: Gary Lopez, 416-2338, glopez@fcgov.com 1. Permitted Uses: Accessory buildings with habitable space are permitted in the NCL— Neighborhood Conservation — Low Density district, subject to a Type I (Administrative) Review. 2. Land Use Standards: • Density Requirements and Floor Area Ratio: Minimum lot area must be at least 2'/2 times the total floor area of the buildings. On your site plan, please document the total square footage of the existing structures as outlined in Section 4.7(D)(1) of the Land Use Code. There is also a maximum floor area ratio of 25% on the rear 50% of the lot. Please show this calculation on your site plan also. See site plan, please. • Residential: The maximum square footage allowed for this type of use with a 2-car garage is 1000sf. Because this lot is large enough to contain a separate, new single- family residence without a 2-car garage that is 800sf (for a total of 1375sf between the house and the existing garage) and because redeveloping an existing structure is preferable to adding a whole new structure, staff supports you in seeking a modification of standards to allow this slightly larger than allowed residential unit. Please see Anne's comments below regarding the modification of standards process. Noted. ThanK-you. 3. Dimensional Standards: On your submittal, locate the new building such that it meets the minimum setback requirements, which are: • Front 15 feet • Rear 15 feet, unless alley, then 5 feet 2 24 September, 2007 Bryan Soth High Craft Builders 429 S.
