August 22, 1997 i CITY PLAN Principles & Policies This project strives to implement and blend the CITY PLAN Principles and Policies. The applicant achieves a proper balance of land uses within the existing Commercial zoning. The development is an appropriate use utilizing the Citys' existing utilities infrastructure and transportation accessibility, while fulfilling a general public need and service. This project improves on a less than desirable existing condition, providing a new appropriate use that is compatible with the existing fabric of surrounding development. ii General Description The proposed project will provide additional minor automotive repair facilities to an existing vehicle facility immediately adjacent to the east. The new facilities will relieve the current overcrowded service situation and parking/access problems for customers at the existing operations. The project site is bounded by the City of Ft. Collins Spring Creek Park and bikeway to the north, commercial uses to the west, east and south, as well as rental housing to the south. The uses have been internalized to the site where parking and access to service areas are located. Landscape and building buffering occur on all sides of the site with special attention provided to the residential use to the south and Spring Court street side to the west. iii Ownership & Maintenance All maintenance of private and public areas will be provided by the operations manager and owners, (being one in the same), James M. and Martha M. Dwyer, of Ft. Collins. iv Employee Count The employee count is projected to be 7. v Assumptions and Choices The basic asumptions in the site and building layout included access off of Johnson Drive from College Avenue, internalizing service uses and parking/ circulation areas, a low building profile solution with appropriate building materials and landscape buffering that would be consistent with the existing fabric of the streets and uses. vi Applicable Criteria Applicable criteria will be met as required by staff. 970.207.0424 740 NINSDALE DRIVE 970-225.0252 FAX MAT COLLINS-CO 80526
