12/09/2015: FIRE ACCESS
While fire access at the south entrance may not need to be dedicated in order
to meet minimum access requirements by code, the project team should bear in
mind that one engine and at least one ambulance will respond to all medicals at
the facility. Prior experience with other assisted care facilities in the area would
suggest this will be a regular occurrence and the final access plan should allow
for room needed to park both an engine and ambulance in close proximity to the
access entrance. This access point need not be the front door but in most
facilities, it is. Further discussion is needed.

meeting. Applicants of new commercial or multi -family projects are advised to
call 416-2341 to schedule
a pre -submittal meeting. Applicants should be prepared to present site plans,
floor plans, and elevations

along the street frontages for the project (Rock Creek Drive and Ziegler Road)
for spillover parking situations, and there are two disjointed parking fields for
this project, connected by this drive aisle, I'm wondering if the 24 foot width for
two way traffic should be widened to at least accommodate onstreet parking on
the west side of the drive -aisle in between the two parking lot/driveways. We've
had a previous long term care facility also along an arterial roadway (Lemay

12/16/2015: We have two plats in at the same time. Windsong at Rock Creek
contains 18.7 acres and includes Outlot A at 15.36 acres. But, concurrently, we
have a plat in for Eye Center of Northern Colorado, immediately north of
Windsong, which is a portion of Outlot A, but does not indicate that it is a
"Replat of a Portion of Outlot A of Windsong at Rock Creek." Both plats include
overlapping land area. The plats indicate that the owner is Harmony
Technology Park LLC. The owner should be aware that these two plats need to
