In response to Transportation Planning, the access walk previously provided to the south side of buildings A and B has been deleted because of a redesign of the building.

The resubmitted Modification request takes into consideration the suggestions by Advance Planning. The best connection from this project and the general neighborhood to JFK is along the south side of ditch, average 45 feet wide with existing sidewalk adjacent to Troutman and the future potential of a sidewalk along the top of the large existing berm, which sidewalk can meander through a beautiful groove of seventeen large, mature shade trees. This is the preferred pedestrian connection to JFK from the standpoint of aesthetics, quality of experience, space, safety and path access. Transportation Planning agrees with and supports this view. The alternative potential pedestrian connection route along the north side of the ditch is narrow, passes through a 12 foot constraint area and is adjacent to a very ugly black 8 foot chain -link fence along the south side of the Post Office parking lot. "Map" and photos are enclosed. 12. Applicant has met with Transportation Planning. We appreciate Transportation Planning's recognition of the changes we have made to improve pedestrian circulation, parking lot auto / pedestrian separation and connectivity to street sidewalks, and their acknowledgement of the good results we have achieved. Regarding the question of the potential pedestrian connection to JFK - see paragraph 11 above. 13.Applicant has met with Mapping. Mapping's requests have been incorporated into the resubmitted Utility plans. The project's name has been changed from Park Place to Promontory with Mapping's approval. APR 1 2 2000 d April 11, 2000 Mr. Steve Olt City of Fort Collins Current Planning Department P. O. Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 Re: Promontory PUD (previously Park Place) Dear Steve: In response to your Comments Letter dated March 15, 2000. (My responses correlate to your letter paragraphs.) 1. Modification being reviewed. Okay. 2. Applicant has met with Ditch Company and received their approval. 3. Applicant has met with Zoning about concerns about parking, alternate elevations, parking lot screening, landscape phasing, proposed residential sign locations, sight distance assurance, and plant list correction have been addressed in resubmittal. We will remove topography lines from final site plan when it is submitted. Alternative parking space demarcation by means of triple score lines will be the same as previously approved for zoning for Landings Bay and has been approved specifically with Zoning. 4. Applicant has met with Light and Power. Light and Power's concerns have been addressed in resubmitted Utility Plans. 5. Applicant has met with Poudre Fire Authority. The request for fire lane signage but no red curbs is included in the revised Modification request being submitted. This seems appropriate in light of the unique nature of this project — we do not want to go to the considerable effort of creating a successful central park — courtyard design only to detract from it aesthetically with red curbs. My understanding is that Poudre Fire Authority will support this modification because of the unique nature of the project, provided our Modification request is approved by P & Z, and provided that we coordinate with them for the satisfactory type and location of fire lane signs. 3307 South College Avenue, Suite 200, Fort Collins, CO 80525 - (970) 226-5000 • Fax (970) 226-5125
