HomeMy WebLinkAboutRIGDEN FARM, 11TH FILING, BROOKLYN PARK ROW HOUSES - PDP - 56-98AD - CORRESPONDENCE - (4)b. Please visit our website at http://www.fcgov.com/currentplannineJsubmittals.php for a
complete list of submittal requirements.
c. A utility coordination meeting is necessary. I would suggest that we conduct
it prior to a project submittal. We need a proposed utility layout drawing
distributed to the various departments and agencies representing gas, TV,
phone, water, sewer, electricity, stormwater. Contact Sheri Wamhoff to
coordinate.
d. Although utilities are going to be a challenge to coordinate on this site, the
zoning requires a minimum density of 12 units per net acre of land, so there
will need to be some give and take with utility configurations, enough to
accomplish the required density.

6. Natural Resources:
Dust Control
• Contact Larimer County Environmental Health regarding a fugitive dust control permit (970498-
6789)
Trash/Recycling Collection Services
• We request that you provide adequate space in your Dumpster area to allow recycling service.
Landscaping and Design
• Please use native plants/grasses and reduce bluegrass lawns as much as possible in landscaping or
re -landscaping as per Land Use Code Section 3.2.1(E)(2)(3).
7. Fire Department:
a. Address must be visible from the street using a minimum 6• numerals on a
contrasting background.
b. Contact Ron Gonzales for comments from Poudre Fire Authority.
8. Light and Power:
a. The design of the site seems to be very tight. It's unclear how it could be
served.
b. Where will the electric, gas, and TV meters go? Show this information.
c. Locations need to be provided to accommodate 2 to 3 transformers.
d. Without additional easement width along Custer, the existing sidewalk may
need to be ripped up in order to locate the electric service under the
sidewalk locaiton.
9. Transportation:
a. Since Traffic Operations will not be requiring a complete TIS on the
project, I would still like the submittal to include LOS for bikes,
pedestrians, and existing and long range transit service. The memo should
also include existing conditions and long range / ultimate build out of Rigden
Farms and the structure plan.
b. All units need to face and open onto a "connecting walkway."
10. Park Planning:
a. The neighborhood and community parkland fees are based on square footage
of each unit, and are due at the time of building permit.
11. Current Planning:
a. Refer to Section 3 (General Development Standards), and Section 4.5 (MMN
Zoning District) in the Land Use Code for the standards that apply to your
proposed development. The Land Use Code is available to view on the
internet at www.fcgov.com/cityclerk/codes.php.

2. Stormwater Utility Department:
Location: Rigden Farms
1. This site is in the Foothills drainage basin where the new development fees are
$6,525/acre which is subject to the runoff coefficient reduction.
2. The site is on Stormwater inventory map #12M. A copy can be obtained from the
Utilities office at 700 Wood Street.
3. The drainage study needs to verify compliance with the Overall Drainage Plan (ODP)
for Rigden Farm. The site Imperviousness and subbosin delineation needs to be the same
as in the ODP or mitigation for changes may be required.
4. Water quality treatment was included In the ODP.
3. Engineering Department:
a. Street Oversizing Fees are $996/dwelling unit for multifamily. Check with
Matt Baker for the specific amount of this fee for your project.
b. See Traffic Operations and Transportation Planning comments regarding
traffic study requirements.
c. You will be required to have a Development Agreement, a Development
Construction Permit, and Utility Plans.
d. Utility easements, at least 9 feet in width, will be required to be dedicated
adjacent to Custer and Iowa. Custer Drive will likely need more than 9 feet
in easement width to accommodate electric and gas services. A utility
coordination meeting will be necessary. This can happen prior to project
submittal.
e. Need to meet driveway separation requirements for the driveways onto
Iowa.
f. Street cut fees will apply for any cuts into streets for utilities and/or
driveway cuts.
4. Traffic Operations
a. The project will require a memo from a traffic engineer showing vehicular
trip generation and consistency with what's already been approved.
5. Water & Wastewater Utility:
Location: SE of Custer Drive and Iowa Drive (Rigden Farm) (M-12)
Proposal: Residential development with 42 townhouses
Ex. Mains: 8-inch water and 8-inch sewer in both Custer and Iowa
C. Comments: The water and sewer mains serving the site must be located in
driveway(s) to avoid landscape conflicts; therefore, the drives must be moved or new
mains brought into the site (and existing stubs abandoned). The proposed project is very
dense (25+/- units/acre). A utility coordination meeting must be held prior to finalizing
the site layout to insure that adequate space is available for the installation of all
underground utilities. The water conservation standards for landscape and irrigation will
apply. Development fees and water rights will be due at time of building permit.
