Home My WebLink AboutSUNRISE RIDGE, 2ND FILING - PDP - 13-05D - CORRESPONDENCE - (4)3. Current Planning agrees with Engineering that cul-de-sac is too wide resulting in excessive pavement. Please explore options that comply with Poudre Fire Authority requirements but with less pavement area. Have you considered fronting. Lots One and Seven (100-foot minimum) on Rock Creek Drive? Have you considered that Poudre Fire allows a drive length of up to 150 feet without a turn -around? Have you considered a hammer -head configuration instead of a cul-de-sac, subject to P.F.A. approval? 4. Due to the lot configurations and resulting building setbacks, there will be long driveways. Staff recommends that driveways be only one lane wide at the street and then flare out at the garage. Also, these driveways may be ideal candidates for pervious concrete to decrease the amount of stormwater runoff. 5. Along Strauss Cabin Road, please describe the ground cover treatment between back of sidewalk and perimeter fence. Also, please note on the plans that owners of Lot Six and Seven (and a small portion of Lot Five) are responsible for maintenance of the area outside the perimeter fence, including irrigation and mowing of the parkway. This also includes responsibility for establishment of the street trees. After establishment, the City Forester will provide long term pruning on an as -needed basis. 6. Will there be any consideration for buffering the property owner to the south? Will there be a common fence along the rear property lines of Lots Four and Five? Will there be any plant material provided by the developer along these two rear lots lines for the purpose of buffering the five -acre County lot to the south? 7. Site Note number 6 states that "building footprints are not provided" and yet the plan shows building footprints and building envelopes in dashed line. Please clarify compliance with Urban Estate requirements by providing a schematic for a "typical' lot. Be sure to indicate that the front building line cannot be closer to the front property line than the point where the 100-foot lot width is achieved, even if this distance exceeds 30 feet. This schematic should also illustrate compliance with the garage standards. 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. SiTedhepard ce T Chief Planner Page 4 rt Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: David Averill Topic: Stormwater Number: 7 Created: 1 /10/2007 [1/10/07] Please label all sidewalk dimensions for final plan. Number: 8 1 Created: 1 /10/2007 [1/10/07] What is the extent of improvements to Ziegler with this project? The plans do not show existing or proposed sidewalk to the edge of property line, for example. A six foot detached walk is required by standard. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Stormwater Nurnber. 2 Created: 1 /9/2007 [1/9/07] The storm sewer, which will be public, can not be placed on a private lot. This storm sewer is taking right-of-way flows and will be maintained by the City. The storm line will need to be in a separate tract at least 20 feet wide. Another option is to have the storm sewer run around the lots in the right-of-way to the north and west along Rock Creek Drive. Number: 3 Created: 1 /9/2007 [1/9/07] Sub -basin 4 and 5 are free releasing and are not being detained. Sub -basin 4 needs to be detained and flows directed toward the detention pond. A variance to free release sub -basin 5 will be considered once a study can prove that no negative impacts occur downstream. The study needs to include an analysis of where the flows go downstream and any conveyance improvements that may be needed. Number: 4 Created: 1 /9/2007 [1/9/07] In addition to the flows from sub -basin 4 needing to be detained, sub -basin 4 can not drain onto the lot to the south. These flows will be concentrated and are different in character. A swale, or other conveyance method, needs to take these flows to the west into the detention pond. Number: 5 Created: 1 /9/2007 [1/9/07] The text in the drainage report is not site specific and looks to be the same as filing 1. Please include text regarding the sub -basin flow routing for this site and any variances for this specific PDP. This report can reference the Sunrise Ridge Filing 1 report regarding the SWMM design and other design information pertaining to both filings. Comments from Current Planning: The minimum lot width in the Urban Estate zone is 100 feet. Lots 2 — 6 have very narrow street frontages. Due to their shapes, and due to the minimum lot width of 100 feet, the 100 feet of lot width is not achieved until a distance ranging from 35 to 96 feet (see redlines). Please note that the building envelope must be setback from the point where the minimum lot width is attained. Lots 3, 5 and 6 are particularly impacted with much diminished building envelopes resulting from compliance with the minimum lot width. 2. Please add a note to both the plat and site plan that vehicular access from Strauss Cabin Road will not be allowed. Page 3 ti Topic: Plat Number: 18 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] Please provide for a 15' utility easement along Strauss Cabin Road, not 9' as shown. Number: 19 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] Please provide a note on the plat that no lots shall be allowed vehicular (driveway) access directly onto Strauss Cabin Road or Rock Creek Drive. Topic: Utility Plan Number: 12 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] It would appear to make more sense if some of the utility improvements shown on the plans be shown to be built on the 1 st Filing plans and then shown on this set of plans as "existing". At the very least, the water connection from the hydrant to the main on Rock Creek should be shown as being constructed with the 1st Filing plan set. I don't have the most recent revised plan set for the 1st Filing to verify if these improvements are reflected as being constructed on that plan set. Number: 14 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07) Please use the same type of detail for the cul-de-sac construction of hand forming = the curb and gutter as was done on two other Northern Engineering projects, Lemay Avenue Estates and MCClelland's Creek. Number: 15 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] A utility coordination meeting was suggested at staff review. I can look to schedule this if desired. Number: 16 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] Provide truncated domes/access ramp details on the details sheet. Number: 17 Created: 1/12/2007 (1/12/07] Please ensure that a water tap for the median in the cul-de-sac is provided for, given that the median is proposed to be irrigated. Number: 23 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] Please provide a construction detail on the outfall curb and gutter section intended to be used for the median. Number: 24 Created: 1/12/2007 [1/12/07] In general please provide a different line weight or line type to discern improvements to be done with the 1 st Filing. (Rock Creek Drive, spot elevations on Rock Creek Drive, etc.) Isn't the sidewalk on the south side of Rock Creek Drive proposed to be built with the 1st Filing? Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Doug Martine Topic: Utility Plan Number: 1 Created: 1/2/2007 [1/2/07] The water services to lots 2/3 and 4/5 need to be separated to the middle of the lots to provide a location for electric utility facilities. Contact Doug Martine at 224-6152. Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins KELLY SMITH Date: 01/16/2007 5101 STRAUSS CABIN ROAD FORT COLLINS, CO 80528 Staff has reviewed your submittal for SUNRISE RIDGE, 2ND FILING PDP - TYPE I, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Dana Leavitt Topic: General Number: 9 Created: 1 /11 /2007 [1/11/07] Coordinate with Tim Buchanan to identify existing substantial trees and if needed, protection of said trees. Number: 10 Created: 1 /11 /2007 [1/11/07] If new tracts are created in this filing add seed mix to landscape plan. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: General Number: 11 Created: 1 /12/2007 [1/12/07] The cul-de-sac bulb appears to be quite large and would likely be the largest cul- de-sac built in town. I'd support any effort to reduce the size from a City pavement maintenance standpoint. Initial indications from PFA were such that the diameter could be reduced by 10 feet given the median size. In the end I'll defer to PFA on whatever size they feel they need. Number: 13 Created: 1 /12/2007 [1/12/07] Sidewalk on Strauss Cabin Road needs to be designed and built with the project. Please ensure that it is reflected on all plan sets, including with grading information. Number: 20 Created: 1 /12/2007 [1/12/07] As a heads -up, there will need to be development agreement language stipulating that with certain lots in the development having double frontage onto public streets, they are required per code to have maintenance responsibilities for both Strauss Cabin Road and Sunglow Court (and with lot 7 also responsible for Rock Creek Drive). Number: 21 Created: 1 /12/2007 [1/12/07] Relating to the previous comment, perhaps it might be of benefit to redraw the boundary between lots 5 and 6? Lot 5 appears to have 11' feet of sidewalk responsibility along Strauss Cabin Road in the current configuration but could be reconfigured such that Lot 6 takes on this responsibility. Number: 22 Created: 1 /12/2007 [1/12/07] The local street portion of Strauss Cabin Road abutting the site will need to be provided. Page 1
