HomeMy WebLinkAboutBELLE CLAIRE, 310 S. COLLEGE AVE. - PDP - 26-05 - CORRESPONDENCE - (5)[9/21/05] Include water sewer trench details. Number: 55 Created: 9/21/2005 [9/21/05] Meter pit and water service details are outdated. Include current version of these details. Number: 56 Created: 9/21/2005 [9/21/05] See utility plans for other comments. Number: 58 Created: 9/21/2005 [9/21/05] Water services and fire line are shown passing between two existing trees. Trenching in this area may severely damage these trees. Check with City Forester to see if adequate separation is being provided. Number: 59 Created: 9/21/2005 [9/21/05] Will there be a conflict between the water services/fire line and the underground electric lines? Number: 61 Created: 9/21/2005 [9/21/05] It is noted that the roof drains are routed to the pumped connection to the storm sewer. The flows from a major storm event will have a significant impact on the pump sizing. Has this been accounted for in the pump design? Is a duplicate pump being installed to provide backup in the event of pump failure? Failure of this system could result in flooding of the underground parking area. Was a gravity connection from the roof drains to the storm sewer considered? Comment from Current Planning: The consulting team needs to meet in the field with Tim Buchanan, City Forester, and Rick Richter, Pavement Management Program Director, to discuss the installation of the water line, fire line and the impact on existing trees along Olive Street. If a significant tree is lost, then mitigation must be provided in accordance with the recommendation of the City Forester. The Current Planning Department can coordinate this meeting within a time frame that is convenient for the applicant. 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. *Sincerelard'� l P Chief Planner Page 5 2. The ramp on College Avenue and the wall between the two ramps appears to still be in the floodway and we suspect includes fill in the floodway. Please review and revise as necessary to eliminate any fill in the floodway. Please provide additional existing and proposed elevations to document the no -rise. 3. Please add a note to the plans and include a note in the drainage report:. - All work in the floodway must beat or below existing ground. A no -rise certification required before building permit. (REPEAT) 4. Please delete the part of Floodplain Note 3 that talks about venting of the parking garage. This does not apply to this property. (REPEAT) Topic: Stormwater Number: 44 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/21/05] REPEAT COMMENT [6/14/05] Basin 01 drainage will increase from existing to developed conditions, which will result in increased flows onto Highway 287. CDOT normally does not allow increased flows onto their highways. The increase of .3 cfs is small, but approval by CDOT would be required for this increase. Basin 1 also now drains onto CDOT right-of-way and would need their approval as well. Number: 62 Created: 9/23/2005 [9/23/05] After floodplain issues are resolved, Stormwater is ready for the project to go to a hearing. At final, additional comments may follow. Department: Water Wastewater Issue Contact: Jeff Hill Topic: General Number: 13 Created: 6/13/2005 [9/21/05] As previously noted, provide fire sprinkler flow requirements. [6/13/05] Provide flow calculations which justify the need for an 8-inch fire line. Number: 19 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/21/05] [6/14/05] Maintain the required landscape/utility separation distance on the landscape plans. See site, landscape and utility plans for other comments.

Issue Contact: Doug Moore Created: 9/21 /2005 Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Floodplain Number: 57 Created: 9/21 /2005 [9/21/05] 1. Please include additional existing and proposed spot elevations within the floodway that can be used for comparison to document no -rise. (REPEAT) Page 3 [6/14/05] Fences/walls must be set back at least T from the Alley ROW (LCUASS Figure 7- 11 F). Please relocate the wall currently shown on the edge of the alley ROW. Number: 28 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] A variance request was received and will be taken to Transportation Coordination this Thursday, the 22nd. I will have an answer for you then. [6/14/05] Sight distance is a concern at the two driveway intersections with the alley. Please redesign the walls adjacent to these driveways to allow drivers to see oncoming traffic in the alley in both directions. Number: 30 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] Just keeping this comment open through Final Compliance. [6/14/05] Please remove the dining tables shown on the landscape plan. Approval for dining areas encroaching in the ROW takes place in a separate encroachment permit process through the City's Chief Inspector. FYI - The tables shown separately from the building (the walk would be between the building and the tables) will not be permitted if alcohol is to be served. Also, if no alcohol is served in that location, only a single row of tables would be permitted in order to maintain the required clear space. The typical clear space required is T from the fence surrounding the dining area to the edge of walk, but when there is an obstruction on the other side (a retaining wall/fence/etc) then the distance required is 9'. Please take this into account when applying for dining area encroachments. Number: 36 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/21/05] Please provide more information about the subdrains. The city does not allow subdrains in public rights of way and it appears that there is a proposed exterior perimeter drain. Still need the hydrologic study. [6/14/05] Are subdrains proposed with this project? If so, a hydrologic study may be needed per LCUASS. Number: 42 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/27/05] The actual grade requirement is 8% max. [6/14/05] The first car -length of the driveway heading to the underground parking area should be at a grade of approximately 4% to increase visibility and reduce conflicts at the intersection with the alley. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Susan Joy Topic: Landscape Number: 64 Created: 9/27/2005 [9/27/05] Please label the sight distance easement and provide the sight distance note. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Katie Moore Topic: Pavement Number: 22 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] Just keeping this comment alive until FC. [6/14/05] Rick Richter has commented that Olive Street is less than 5 years old. This means that street cut fees for Olive will be triple the normal rate. Topic: Plat Number: 24 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] 1 am routing a variance request to all applicable utilities and should have an answer back in two weeks. Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins VF RIPLEY ASSOCIATES Date: 09/27/2005 CATHY MATHIS 401 W. MOUNTAIN AVE, SUITE 201 FORT COLLINS, CO 80521 Staff has reviewed your submittal for BELLE CLAIRE PDP, 310 S. COLLEGE (OLD TOWN LOFTS) -TYPE II I, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Katie Moore Topic: Alley Number: 49 Created: 6/17/2005 [9/21/05] The plan and profile sheet shows cross slopes exceeding the maximum allowed. In addition, please show more information to the south so that we can see how your improvements are tying into the existing. [6/17/05] Since the alley is to be re -built, with some alterations, please provide a plan and profile design of the alley. Topic: General Number: 20 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] Just keeping this comment alive until FC. [6/14/05] College Avenue is a state highway, and as such, CDOT regulations must be followed for construction within that ROW and drainage onto the highway. CDOT has indicated that retaining walls and/or staris are not permitted within the ROW. Planter boxes would be ok with a permit; closing the access on College will require a permit (free for removal) that would also cover the other work within the ROW. Please discuss drainage issues with CDOT, as well as the proposed relocation of the light pole and associated curbing to the center of College Avenue, to see what CDOT will allow. Number: 23 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] Just keeping this comment alive until FC. [6/14/05] All eaves/balconies/awnings/etc that encroach into either the College or Olive ROW will require an approved encroachment permit from the City. Retaining walls, planter boxes, etc in the ROW will also be required to have an encroachment permit. Fees for the permit will be determined after approval of the project. Number: 25 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] Please label who owns this easement, all plan sets (City, REA, etc). Final Compliance. [6/14/05] A powerline easement is shown on the plat, but does not appear on any of the other plans. This easement (and all easements) must be shown on the site, landscape, and utility plans. Number: 27 Created: 6/14/2005 [9/20/05] A variance request will be routed to all applicable utilities and we should have an answer within two weeks. Page 1
