In terms of public improvements, this developer is responsible for the design and construction of Strauss Cabin Road along their frontage including the portion bounded by the ditch and the county. The applicant is required to provide the ultimate design plus 1000' of preliminary design on either side of the property. The developer will not be required to participate in the cost of bringing the bridge up to current city standards. They will only have to show it in their design (plan and profiles only). The City Engineering Department will not ask the developer to construct the ultimate improvements on.Strauss Cabin Road at this time. Instead, we will require for a Contribution in Aid for their local street portion (cash in lieu of the construction). 12. The maximum length of a cul-de-sac is 660 feet. 13. The rural road standard, is only for projects that generate less than 300 trips per day where lot sizes are one acre or larger. 14. The owner of the easterly portion of the site, which contains the Fossil Creek Inlet Ditch, may be required to sign the final plans. 15. Utility Plans are required at the time of submittal. A Development Agreement is required prior to recording final plans. A Development Construction Permit is required prior to beginning work in the field. For further information, please contact Susan Joy,.221-6605. 16. The project should provide a connecting walkway to the existing walk along the north property line. All lots within the project should have access to this connecting walkway. 17. The Fossil Creek Inlet Ditch is a tributary to Fossil Creek Reservoir. Therefore, a 100-foot buffer from future houses is required as measured from top of bank: This buffer area should be re -vegetated with native plants and grasses. If the buffer is decreased, then an Ecological Characterization Study will be required in order to evaluate the impact on the buffer area. A Fugitive Dust Permit is required to be obtained from Larimer County Health Department. You are encouraged to reduce the amount of irrigated blue grass turf. You are also encouraged to use a single trash/recycling hauler to minimize the impact on the roadway. For further information on natural resource issues, please contact Doug Moore, at 221-6143. 18. A neighborhood information is recommended. 4 accordance with the classification of the roadway. Normal site and development charges will apply. If the existing house is presently being served by an electrical utility other than the City of Fort Collins, then there may be small conversion charge added to the rate for a limited period of time. For further information and an estimate of these fees, please contact Monica Moore, 221-6700. 5. The site will be served domestic water by the Fort Collins -Loveland Water District. Sanitary sewer will be provided by the South Fort Collins Sanitation District. Please contact Terry Fardll, at 226-3104, for further information about both special districts and their requirements. 6. This site is in the McClelland/Mail Creek drainage basin where the new development fee is $3,717.00/acre which is it is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction. This fee is to be paid at the time the building permit is issued. A drainage and erosion control report and construction plans are required and they must be prepared by a Professional Engineer registered in Colorado. In the McClelland's/Mail Creek drainage basin onsite detention is required with a 0.5 cfs/ac release rate for the 100 year storm. Extended detention is required for water quality treatment. There is a storm sewer to the north side of this site which may be used as an outfall. The number of outfall points has been negotiated with the ditch company so if the outfall is not used a separate discharge agreement will be needed. Since this outfall is at the higher end of the site it may not be possible to drain into it. Another option appears to be to drain to the low end of the site to the north by the bridge crossing the ditch. This would allow a lower outfall and would be contained on the site, avoiding offsite easements. Also since there is a structure at that location it should already have erosion protection in the ditch. The ditch company will need to approve the construction plans. For further information, please call Glen Schlueter, 221-6700. 7. Dedication of public right-of-way will be needed along both Strauss Cabin Road and Rock Creek Drive. Strauss Cabin Road is classified as a two- lane arterial with a total right-of-way width of 84 feet. One-half of this total width, 42 feet, must be provided from the centerline of the roadway to the property line. In addition, a 15 foot wide utility easement must be dedicated next to this right-of-way dedication. 8. Rock Creek Drive is classified as a minor collector street, with parking, with a total right-of-way of 76 feet. In addition, the utility easement along a collector street is nine feet wide. 9. If any new local streets are dedicated, the total right-of-way is 51 feet, again with the nine foot wide utility easement. 3, ITEM:. 5101 Strauss Cabin Road (South C.R. 7) Annexation, Zoning and Subdivision .
