Please I" the adjacent street The plan shows the property line running down the middle of the County Road, yet indicates that there is 41 feet of right-of-way. The property line should follow the edge of the right-of-way. Reply: Changed to 42 feet and property line has been moved. 9.

If you still treed this information, please contact the Owner. 10. A pedestrian connection between the west parking lot and the City Park maybe appropriate. Reply: Good Ideal Added. 11. We recommend that you meet the City`s fill tree stocking standards adjacent to the building; however, we understand the special use and traffic that a school building receives adjacent to the building. The standard reads as follows: "All landscaped areas within SO feet of any building must provide formal and/or informal groupings of trees at 30 to 40 foot Intervals for canopy shade trees, and 20 to 30 feet for evergreens and ornamentals (3.2.100)(c)]. More shadelcanopy Irm oa the south side of the building would be consistent with the School District's desire to reduce the heat oasis ,round the building. Reply: We are providing far more trees than has ever been provided at any previous ekmnm=yy school in Fort Collitts. Trees and vegetation have been carefully placed to reduce the building's lust gain in the summer. However, consideration has been made to not placing plants where they will be damaged by the heavy usage of this facility. 12. The materials to be used for the trash enclosure are not indicated. Please be advised that the City would not typically allow chain link fencing with or without slats as a screening material as specified in section 3.8.11(2) of the LUC. Reply: See details on sheet 1.1. The enclosure is covered with T=%. a recycled plastic and wood fiber lumber. 13. Please show the utility elements and the proposed screening for such elements on the p13ns, We ask that all HVAC and utility equipment meet the following standard of the LUC: Section 3.5.1(1) (2)&(3) Utility meters, HVAC cquiprtunt, vaults, irrig umbons, transformers, and other utility service ftmctions (such as conduits, and vents) shall be located and screened so that the visual and acoustic impacts of these Mons are fully contained and out of view of the adjacent properties and public srreets• Please specify the material of any utility screening. Reply: Please see Civil Drawings and their written response. Building equipment is not visible from Kechter Road. Ground equipment (chiller, generator, etc.) is in a -vinyl-coated f ced in area on the south side of the building. 14. Please indicato the type of ligktting source. The LUC lists incandescent and high-pressure sodium light sources with low contrast and brightness as acceptable light sources.
