Please contact Ron Gonzales to discuss the addressing for the 8 dwelling units in this project. Ron can be reached at 221-6570. 3. No parking will be permitted on Countryside Drive. This must be indicated on the subdivision plat. 4. There are no walkways from the handicapped parking space to handicapped accessible doors to the dwelling units. Basically, handicapped accessible doors do not exist. 5. The entrance to the natural areas parking lot should be redesigned with this project. Natural Resources 1. This development may have to eliminate 2 dwelling units to deal with the possible detention concerns. 2. Stormwater to be released into the natural area needs to be adequately filtered. It is very possible that the Natural Resources Advisory Board may not grant an easement on the City -owned natural area, if one is required. 3. The required 100' buffer between development and the ponds in the natural area should not be reduced. 4. The landscape Plan is not showing the use of native plant materials. Stormwater Utility 1. The drainage report does not discuss where stormwater goes when it leaves T this site. The drainage plan does not provide for detention, just water quality. This must be approved by the Natural Resources Department. Page 3 4. The Lighting and Landscape Plans show a proposed streetlight on the east side of Countryside Road (Drive). This location is acceptable to L&P, but the street trees need to be a minimum of 40' from the light. . Please contact Doug, at 224-6152, if you have questions about his comments. 101 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Rick Lee of the Building Inspection Department indicated that he is attaching a copy of the various codes that the Building Department will enforce. From the brief information provided it is apparent that this project is going to be a single family (R- 3) attached project with zero lot line construction. This type of construction is going to require two 1-hour walls back to back. This construction should extend from the foundation wall to the roof deck above and the restricted openings in the roof requirements of 709.4.1. 102 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Dennis Greenwalt of AT&T Broadband (cable TV) indicated that the Riverbend PDP is too far from their facilities for service at this time and does not meet the franchise requirements. With this project being in the city limits of Fort Collins and no one else holding a franchise for Fort Collins, there should not be any cable service available. 103 Issue Contact: Steve Olt Len Hilderbrand of Excel Energy (Public Service) offered the following comments: 1. The building envelope for Lots 1 & 2 encroaches into an easement on the west end of the lots. 2. Meters must be clustered together on the west wall of Lot 3 to serve Lots 3 - 8. 3. The water curb stop must be to the back of the easement. If telephone, cable, and electric equipment are located within the 9' easement, then the easement must be expanded to 11' in width. 4. The gas line must be located in the street right-of-way with a minimum 10' clearance from water and sewer. 5. Any relocation of existing gas lines will be at the developers expense.
