Home My WebLink AboutECKERD DRUG, COLLEGE & DRAKE - PDP/FDP - 25-03 - CORRESPONDENCE - (5)Topic: General Number: 56 Created: 10/27/2003 [10/27/03] Provide a 10 oft separation between the proposed fire line and the proposed fire hydrant. Show and label location of relocated curb stop and meter pit on the north end of this project. See site, landscape and utility plans for other comments. Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: zoning Number: 4 Created: 8/6/2003 [10/22/03] Their response letter points out that there is a 5' to 6' high wall that will remain. However, Sec. 3.2.1(E)(4)(a) states that the screen wall SHALL be 6' in height. Since they are proposing to keep a wall that is less than 6', a modification will be required or alternative compliance per Sec. 3.2.1(N) must be approved. The landscape buffer along the east lot line adjacent to the residential is not adequate screening. Per Sec. 3.2.1(E)(4)(a) of the LUC, a 6' high fence or wall is required in addition to the plantings. Number: 5 Created: 8/6/2003 [10/22/03] They have provided a 5' wide strip of grass on the resubmittal. However, grass alone does not satisfy the requirements of 3.2.1(E)(4). A minimum 5' wide landscape strip is required along the east side of the parking lot adjacent to the existing commercial at the north end per 3.2.2(J) and 3.2.1(E)(4)(a). 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. Sincerely: 5kk Ted Shepard Chief Planner Page 5 Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Basil Harridan Topic: Details Number: 69 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] The detail for the perforated pipe calls for a 6" pipe while the plan calls for a 4" line, please reconcile. Topic: Easements Number: 21 [10/28/03] Created: 8/19/2003 The water quality pond should be'placed within a drainage easement, if the site is not being replatted this should be done by separate document. Topic: Monitoring well Number: 68 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] Please move monitoring well outside of the water quality pond. Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: Tom Reiff Topic: Transportation Number: 66 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] The new walkway connecting Thunderbird to the proposed Eckerd store will need to be well marked where it crosses the drive aisles by using pavement treatments, signs, striping, signals, lighting, etc... It is recommended that the drive aisle crossings be striped to comply with this section of the code [LUC 3.2.2 (C.5.b)] Please see red lines. Number: 67 Created: 10/28/2003 (10/28/03] An access ramp will need to be constructed to connect the walkway and ramp along the north side of the proposed store to the College Ave. sidewalk. Please see red lines. Department: Water Wastewater Issue Contact: Jeff Hill Topic: Easements Number: 17 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] Provide a 15 foot utility easement along the east property for the existing sanitary sewer main. Provide a copy of the offsite easements needed to construct the proposed sanitary sewer service as well as the abandonment of the existing services. Page 4 Frontage road ROW so that vehicles on the frontage road do not attempt to drive the wrong way. (see redlines for suggestion) Number: 61 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] Please provide an access easement for the portion of the driveway that is on the Eckerd property and is serving the gas station. Topic: Utility Plans Number: 58 Created: 10/27/2003 [10/27/03] Please provide a flowline profile for the new curb and gutter on the frontage road. Number: 59 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] It appears that the new pavement shown on the frontage road will not have a steep enough cross -slope. The cross -slope of new pavement should be as steep or steeper than that of the existing pavement in this instance. Also, the pavement cut should occur at the middle of the lane, approximately 6' from the curb, instead of 2' from the curb. Number: 62 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] Regarding the driveway onto Drake: The underwalk drains need to be moved outside of the curb returns and the ramps need to be a minimum of 6' wide instead of 4' wide. Number: 63 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] Is afire lane (and accompanying emergency access easement) needed? Number: 64 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] Could a pedestrian ramp be provided to access the College sidewalk from the north side of the Eckerd building? Number: 65 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] On the previous redlines on the detail sheet, I questioned whether the driveover curb detail should be added. It was added, but the dimensions don't match the dimensions noted elsewhere on the plans. If this is not the correct detail, please provide a detail of the curb that is existing and is to be matched. Page 3 to Thunderbird be removed. If the closing does not occur with this project, please note on the plans that it may happen in the future. If the closing occurs with this project, .then the parking setbacks from the frontage road will no longer be needed. Number: 27 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] The sidewalks should be 6' from the back of walk to the back of curb, not to the flowline. Original comment: Please provide extra sidewalk width to provide at least 6' where the walks are currently attached. Number: 30 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] The variance for this item was approved. Please note all variances in the general notes on the utility plans. Original comment: The driveway cut onto Drake does not meet the minimum separation distances both from the adjacent driveways and from the nearest streets (the required distance is 460'). Please explore consolidation of the driveways on Drake to share access with adjacent properties. The TIS says that the driveways will be consolidated (page 8 under paragraph III). Number: 36 [10/27/03] Created: 8/19/2003 Please see the redlines and the utility plan checklist for any additional comments. Number: 49 Created: 8/22/2003 [10/28/03] It is unclear whether this issue has been resolved. Have there been further discussions with CDOT? Original comment: Due to the increase in traffic at both Thunderbird and the driveway access onto College, new/revised access permits will be needed from CDOT. Number: 57 Created: 10/27/2003 [10/27/03] Please provide signing and curb painting to prohibit parking on the frontage road. This is required due to the narrower width of the road resulting from the sidewalk widening. Number: 60 Created: 10/28/2003 [10/28/03] The one-way drive for vehicles exiting the drive-thru should look and function as a one-way drive. Please narrow the driving lane as it approaches the Page 2 R STAFF PROJECT REVIEW Citqui FnrCCollins e® BHA DESIGN Date: 11/05/2003 SCOTT SINN 4803 INNOVATION DR. FT. COLLINS, CO 80525 Staff has reviewed your submittal for ECKERD DRUG PDP - COLLEGE & DRAKE - TYPE II (LUC), and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Katie Moore Topic: General Number: 23 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] The variance requests for parking setbacks have resulted in the following: approval of the request for the shown setback from Drake Road, and approval of a 20' setback from the frontage road (15' was requested, but not approved). Original comment: Parking does not meet the parking setback requirements under LCUASS Figure 19- 6. The setback from Drake should be 75 feet, while the setbacks along the frontage road and Thunderbird should be 50' from the flowline of the road to the edge of the first parking stall. Number: 24 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] Please label the driveway radii and ensure they match the standard values. Original comment. Please use radius -style driveways on arterials (Drake and College). Please use standard driveway cuts on all other streets (frontage road and Thunderbird) unless there are 350+ trips through each, in which case, please use the radius -style driveways here as well. Please label the radii and ensure that they match the standard values. Number: 26 Created: 8/19/2003 [10/27/03] Since the closure of the frontage road is not occurring at this time, please add the note to the plans that it may be closed in the future. Original comment: Due to the proximity of the frontage road intersection with Thunderbird to the College intersection with Thunderbird, it is strongly suggested that the frontage road access to Thunderbird be removed.
