HomeMy WebLinkAboutEASTGATE PDP - 10-04 - SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS - ROUND 1 - CORRESPONDENCE-CONCEPTUAL REVIEWCURRENT PLANNING 1. Neighborhood meeting is required for the project. The Neighborhood meeting was held prior to this submission with Troy Jones in attendance. 2. LMN district design standards will apply. We understand. 3. Standards 3.5.1 and 3.5.2 of the LUC apply to this project. We understand. 4. A replat may be needed due to existing easement vacations. A replat is submitted with this plan. This concludes the comments and response to the Concept Review comments as provided for this project. Sincerely; Ric Hattman STORM DRAINAGE 1. Storm Drainage fee is based on the Spring Creek Basin. We understand. 2. Drainage report, construction plans, and erosion control plan are required. These items are provided with this submission. 3. Onsite detention at two-year historic release as well as water quality pond is required. Ponds need to be sized for adjacent drainage. The drainage report addresses these issues. 4. The existing 35-foot easement is for a future outfall system. The design of this front yard area will allow the City to re -contour this area in the future if such a system is designed. The current design needs to direct off -site flows to the detention pond east of the buildings. At such time as this drainage needs to be changed to allow water to flow on the west side of the buildings this area can be reconfigured. 5. The reconfigured pond needs to serve this site as well as off -site properties. This is provided within the project design. 6. An easement for the off -site detention release pipe needs to be in an easement. Our platting research indicates that this pipe is within a general utility and drainage easement. 7. The site is on area map 11J. We understand. TRANSPORTATION PLANNING 1. Alternative modes of transportation within the T1S. The TIS is not needed for this project. Alternate modes of transportation are noted on the context plan for your review. These systems area all currently in place. 2. Bike Parking. Garages are provided for each dwelling unit. Additional bike parking is not needed. 3. Direct connecting walkway from units to sidewalk required. This connection is provided. NATURAL RESOURCES 1. Existing trees removed if found significant need to be mitigated. Trees removed are found to be insignificant or of nuisance species. Trees of significant have been mitigated and are noted such on the plans. 2. Trash area. Trash receptacles for recycling and garbage will be stored within the individual unit garages. No common trash area is needed. 3. Use native plants and grasses as much as possible. The majority of the site is landscaped using native plants and trees. PARKS AND RECREATION 1. Parkland fee based on the size of each unit will be collected at Building Permit. We understand. WATER/WASTEWATER 1. A 6" water main is within Montgomery. This line is the water service source for the project. 2. Sanitary is located within an easement on the adjacent property to the South. The existing sanitary line is extended to the south edge of our property within a dedicated City utility easement. No off -site easement is needed. The service line from this point to the building will be within a general drainage and utility easement shown on the Plat for the project. 3. Plant investment fees, development review fees, and water rights will be due at time of Building Permit. Water conservation standards for irrigation will be required for this project. We understand the fees that will be due at Building Permit. We will meet the water conservation standards and will submit an irrigation plan prior to Building Permit for the project. ENGINEERING 1. Street oversizing for multi -family homes will be collected for this project. We understand the fees and will contact Matt Baker for an n estimate. 2. Larimer County oversizing fees apply as well. We understand. 3. Additional R.O.W. may be required for the project as well as utility easements. The R.O.W. for Montgomery is larger than the current standard for local streets. There is a 35-foot easement adjacent to the property currently. All utilities serving adjacent properties are in place. Additional easement space is not needed. 4. A Traffic Impact Study may be needed. Eric Bracke indicated that a traffic study for this infill project would not be needed. In addition the local pedestrian and alternative transportation modes are in place. This project will not be sufficient in scope to cause a change to any of these systems. 5. Any damaged curb, gutter, and sidewalk adjacent to the property will need to be replaced. We understand these requirements. 6. Project will need Utility plans, development construction permit, and development agreement. We will be providing these three engineering elements at the appropriate times in the development process. 7. Driveway separation distance will need to be provided. This is provided within the plan. 8. Parking setback for parking lots will need to be met. The project does not need or utilize a parking lot. Parking is provided within private driveway and garage.
