HomeMy WebLinkAboutBOARDWALK CROSSING, LOT 2, FILING 2 - PDP - 76-93B - CORRESPONDENCE - REVISIONSIL Number: 7 Created: 6/23/2004 [6/23/04] General Note #6 implies that all exterior lighting will be building mounted, yet there are pole fixtures shown on the site plan. If there are to be pole fixtures, then the note should address those as well (i.e., down directional, height of poles, etc). If there aren't going to be any poles, then remove them from the site plan. Note #6 has been revised to apply to building mounted exterior lighting only. The ground mounted site lighting is specified on sheet 4. Red line drawings are available at the Current Planning front desk. Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit. The applicant must set up a meeting with Ginger Dodge (970) 221-6750 prior to resubmitting the project. So noted. If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750. Yours Truly, Bob Barkeen City Planner Page 6 Number: 12 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] The proposed evergreen trees along Mason Street appear to be growing into the sidewalk. This will most likely create a maintenance problem with constant pruning. Trees along sidewalks are required to be maintained at an 8' clearance above the sidewalk, which may look silly for the proposed evergreens. Please use deciduous trees or shrubs along the sidewalks. Deciduous crabapple trees have been substituted for the evergreen trees aiong Mason street as requested. Department: Water Wastewater Issue Contact: Jeff Hill Topic: General Number: 11 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Provide top of water main and bottom of sanitary sewer service at the water main crossing in Boardwalk Dr. Will a lowering of the water main be required at this crossing? Provide details if so. (FDB/S&A) Revised sewer service location per your suggestion. Number: 13 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Provide a copy of the utility easement documentation for our review. (FDB/S&A) Number: 14 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Include the concrete encasement detail on the detail sheet. (FDB/S&A) Added to Detail Shee{ Number: 15 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] See site, landscape and utility plans for other comments. Comments on returned plan sheets noted and revisions made accordingly to resubmitted plans. Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: zoning Number: 3 Created: 6/23/2004 [6/23/04] Building envelopes are labeled, but not dimensioned. Please show envelope dimensions. Building envelopes dimensioned as requested. Number: 4 Created. 6/23/2004 [6/23104] Need to provide bike racks. Show/label locations on site plan. Bike racks added near the main entrance of each of the 2 buildings and noted accordingly. Number: 5 Created: 6/23/2004 [6/23/04] Only one trash enclosure is shown. Should provide another one for Lot 1 building(s) or relocate the one shown so that it's more conveniently located between the buildings. A trash encdsure of significant size has been kocated at a centra6y located internal island that provides convenient access for all proposed buildings. Number: 6 Created: 6/23/2004 16/23/04] General note #4 states that there "shall be no rooftop or ground mounted mechanical equipment". If that's true, where will the mechanical equipment be located? Perhaps the note should be reworded so that it states that rooftop or ground mounted mechanical equipment shall be screened from view. Agreed. Note revised accordingly. Page 5 Number: 37 Created: 7/9/2004 1. There are two "Grading, Sediment, and Erosion Control Plan" sheets in the back of the report and they are different. Which one is the real plan? (FDB/S&A) Removed one grading etc. from plans 2. The area inlet to be installed in the new WQ pond will need protection when it is constructed. �=DB/S&A) Added protection. 3. The silt fencing along the east side of the new construction is very difficult to see on the plan. (FDB/S&A) Revised with note location of silt fence. 4. Since the plan shows all of the BMP's and no phasing, it is going to be assumed that all of them will be installed and kept in good working order and repair from the first shovel of dirt being moved until project completion. This should be reflected in your surety calculations. S&A) No phasing. 5. There must be a project schedule on the plan indicating when various BMP's are to be placed and/or removed in relation to construction sequencing. (FDB/S&A) Added project schedule to plan. 6. What is the "Native Grass Area?" Is this to be reseeded/mulched, or is it to be landscaped? Please indicate on the plan. There will be no 'Native Grass Area'. All grass areas will be sodded grass turf. The plan sheet has been revised accordingly. Department: Traffic Operations Issue Contact: Eric Bracke Topic: Traffic Number: 2 Created: 6/22/2004 [6/22/04] The Transportation Study prepared by Sear -Brown is acceptable. I support the conclusion that the NBRT lane on Mason onto Boardwalk is not required. The intersection of Mason and Boardwalk will operated acceptably under stop sign control into the long range future. So noted. Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: Tom Reiff Topic: Transportation Number: 8 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Please label the 6' sidewalk for Mason Street and the 5' walk for Boardwalk on both the site and utility plans. Sidewalks have been labeled as requested. Number: 9 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Please identify the locations and label the bike racks on all plan sets. Bike racks are required to be located near the building entrance in a visible secure location (one for each bldg.) Bike racks have been added near the entrances of both bldg's. in visible, secure locations. Number: 10 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Is it wise to have a parking stall immediately in front of the trash enclosure where a vehicle could potentially be blocking the dumpster? The trash dumpster enclosure has been relocated to an internal island and is not in conflict with any parking stalls at its new location. Page 4 Topic: sitellandscape plan Number: 19 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] After close inspection, I can see that an attempt was made to use different line weights for existing features vs. proposed features, but at this quality of printing, they are nearly indiscernible. Please change the line weight used for existing features so that they are more distinct from proposed ones. Line weights adjusted as requested. Number: 20 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please clarify the extents of phase 1. Extents danfied with additional arrows. Department: Light & Power Issue Contact: Bruce Vogel Topic: General Number: 1 Created: 6/21 /2004 [6/21/04] No Comments. So noted. Department: Police Issue Contact: Joseph Gerdom Topic: General Number: 17 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Parking lot requires a minimum of 1.Ofc throughout. Western most line of parking falls below this. Also, the north -south driveway should meet this requirement. The driveway intersection with Mason (sw comer) is under lfc - need better levels to illuminate sidewalk/vehicle intersection. Lighting levels adjusted to meet minimum 1.0 f.c. Number: 18 Created: 7/6/2004 [7/6/04] Trash enclosure needs to be better illuminated - recommend the 1.Ofc standard. Also, Honeylocust in center of parking will block lighting - would suggest fixture be moved to west property line to address lighting/landscape issues. Lighting levels at trash enclosure raised to .9 f.c. Honeylocust moved to center of landscape island to allow for better light distribution. Department: Stormwater Utility Issue Contact: Wes Lamarque Topic: Drainage Number: 33 Created: 7/9/2004 The Mail Creek Master Plan states that the release rate for detention ponds be the 2-year historic flow rate for the site, including half the street frontage. For this site, the designated .87 cfs for the area that drains into the 30-inch storm sewer will control. Please adjust the release rate for this site to be .87 cfs/acre. DB1S&A) Revised release rate from site. Number: 34 Created: 7/9/2004 Please document the total release rate for the site, including half the street frontage, and show how the overall sites release rate meets the .87 cfs/acre criteria. (FDB/S&A) Revised calcr,rlation Number: 35 Created: 7/9/2004 Please add a flow calculation for the sidewalk chase. (FDB1S&A) Added flow calculation for sidewalk chase to drainage report. Number: 36 Created: 7/9/2004 A drainage easement is required for the detention pond. The existing drainage easement needs to be vacated for the part that is in conflict with the proposed building. (FDB/S&A) Revised required easement in progress with this report. Page 3 Number: 24 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7104] The plat shows a small utility easement off the 30' access road that is not shown on the plan and may overlap the proposed building. Please show all easements on the plans. (FDB/S&A) The easement does not overlap and is or will still be required for water The easement was shown but faded off from crappy printing. Number: 25 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please dedicate a public access easement to the back of the sidewalk on Mason. (FDB/S&A) A public access easement is being dedicated along with this project. Number: 26 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please dedicate a total 15' wide utility easement behind the ROW on Mason or request an engineering variance to that standard (approval of this variance requires additional time to obtain approval of all utilities). A 10' utility easement behind the ROW has been provided along the southern half of the property with a 15' ROW provided along the northern half. Number: 27 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please find a common title for all the plan sheets that is unique (not used previously). The project title has been amended to read 'Boardwalk Crossing at Mason Street and all plan sheets have been labeled accordingly. Number: 28 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please review appendix E-10 in LCUASS for the City's scanability requirements for all plan sheets and revise plans as necessary. (FDB/S&A) Revised for scanability. Number: 29 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please use the standard detail for an under -walk drain (attached). Standard detail added as requested. Number: 30 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Any work performed outside this property's boundaries requires offsite easements. (sidewalk near southeast corner of site) Please provide a letter of intent from the adjacent property owner prior to hearing, and a copy of the completed easement prior to mylars being signed. (FDB/S&A) We have attempted to contact REI both by mail and phone and have not received any kind of response. Their refusal to cooperate has put us in the position of redesigning our parking access curb cut to stay off their property. A non -radius drive cut has been substituted for the radius cut and the sidewalk on their property has been eliminated. Number: 31 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please see redlines for any additional comments. All redlines addressed accordingly on revised and resubmitted plan sheets. Number: 32 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] The city is revising its detail for the pedestrian ramps used at corners to meet ADA requirements. See attached memo. I will get you the finalized detail as soon as I receive it. Detail has not been received from the city. Pagc 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins ARCHITECTURE WEST LLC Date: 07/13/2004 4710 S. COLLEGE AVE. Response: 11/04 FT. COLLINS, CO 80525 Staff has reviewed your submittal for BOARDWALK CROSSING, LOT 2, FILING 2 PDP - TYPE I, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Bob Barkeen Topic: General Number: 16 Created: 7/6/2004 The site plan shows both building entrances accessing within the adjacent parking area, instead of directly onto the adjacent streets (Mason, Boardwalk or the rear access to REI). Given the location within the Mason Street Corridor, direct building access should be considered on either Mason/Boardwalk and on the private drive to the south (for the southern building). An entrance from Boardwalk has been added to the north bldg. and an entrance from the private drive has been added to the south bldg. Number: 38 Created: 7/13/2004 [7/13/04] In the event the southern building is moved to the east, thus eliminating the foundation plantings along this eastern wall, an alternative would be to include trees in tree grates along the sidewalk. The southern building has not moved to the east Current Planning supports the relocation of the trash enclosure. Trash enclosures may not be located within 20 feet of a public sidewalk. The trash enclosure has been moved to a centrally located internal island and substantially enlarged to accommodate all 3 buildings. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Katie Moore Topic: General Number: 21 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please provide both directional ramps on the northwest corner of the site. Both directional ramps have been added. Number: 22 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] Please dimension the parkways and sidewalks to meet or exceed LCUASS standards. The parkways and sidewalks have been dimensioned accordingly. Number: 23 Created: 7/7/2004 [7/7/04] The southern retail building is overlapping an existing drainage easement, which is not allowed unless that portion of the drainage easement is proposed to be vacated, and the City agrees to vacate it. In order to vacate the easement the City will need a legal description of the portion of the easement to be vacated, and a letter requesting the vacation. The easement vacation would then be processed through Cameron Gloss, since this is a Type I project. (FDB/S&A) The existing drainage easement is being requested to be vacated on Lot 2. Also a new easement will be completed for the new drainage easement required. Page l
