RE: Response to Conceptual Review
Ms. Aspen:
Thank you for providing the conceptual review notes in such a timely manner. We
appreciate your prompt attention to our proposed project. The project in reference is
Urban Living Lofts at Magnolia Street. Your notes dates April 6, 2005 are in regards to
the conceptual review meeting dated March 21, 2005. In response, we have reviewed the
notes and had many meetings and conversations with various individuals obtaining
information to the property and the proposed development on the property.
Over the past few months we have met with many City of Fort Collins officials including
the building department, planning and zoning, storm water, light and power, water,
historical, and Poudre Fire Authority. We have also met with adjacent neighbors of the
property, tenants of the property, developers of similar projects in the area, bankers,
realtors, architects, engineers, and the Downtown Development Authority. Fortunately,
we have had a great response from each of these individuals and have used any criticism
in a constructive manner to provide the City of Fort Collins with a development that will
compliment the downtown area.
We have completed and either is included in the application for development or are
currently being modified and prepared for the final submittal packet. The following is a
response to the conceptual review notes.
• The traffic study is completed and included.
• The ownership of the current right-of-way of the former alley is currently owned
by Urban Living Concepts, LLC and maintained by the adjacent neighbor, Mr.
Edwards.
