HomeMy WebLinkAboutHOWELL BUILDING - PDP - 46-98 - CORRESPONDENCE - REVISIONS (3)9b. Per our discussion with Mr. Buffington, separate sanitary sewer services will not be provided for the new addition. 10 An ornamental tree has been added to the landscape plan. We are requesting alternative compliance as provided in section 3.2.1 (N) of the Fort Collins Land Use Code. As we discussed, it is impossible to accommodate a safe parking lot design as well as the required 5' wide landscape strip on each side of the parking lot. In addition, I feel that the landscaping as I have it placed will better accomplish the goals of section 3.2.1 of the Fort Collins Land Use Code. Since there is an existing concrete wall on one side of the parking lot, and a fence on the other, the effect of creating a visual buffer between adjacent land owners and the parking lot is not an issue. The landscaping as proposed will buffer the parking from the alley, and still provide vegetative relief in the parking lot. Sincerely, Mikal S. Torgerson M.
