Home My WebLink AboutCITY PARK NORTH - FDP - 26-10A - CORRESPONDENCE -Department: Zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes Topic: Zoning Number: 46 Created: 12/1/2010 (12/29/10] The modifications were approved, allowing for a plan with 5 dwelling units. The final plan submittal doesn't reflect this. Need a clarification of what's really being proposed. If it's going to be for only 4 dwelling units, why are there 2 driveways shown on the site plan for Lot 3? Also, some of the driveways shown on the site plan would indicate that the garages they lead to would not comply with the required 5' setback. This would indicate that 0' buildings are proposed, as per the modification that was approved. If buildings are proposed as per the modification, the footprints and elevations are needed as per the original comment. [12/1/10] If the modifications are approved, then the building footprints need to be shown on the site plan. If the modifications are approved, then the architectural building elevations must be shown on a 24 x 36 size sheet and included with the final plans. Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit. 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, Steve Olt City Planner Page 4 Number: 59 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/10] The legal description indicates that the overall size of the property contained within the outside boundary is 39,826 square feet; however, adding up the square footages of Lots 1 - 4 and Tract A gives a total of 39,827 square feet. Which is correct? Topic: Utility Plans Number: 62 Created: 1 /10/2011 [1/10/111 Don Kapperman of Comcast Cable TV indicated that they have gone joint with City Light & Power, presumably meaning that they will be sharing trenches. Any pedestal moves will be at the property owner/developer's expense. Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: Construction Plans Number: 66 Created: 1 /1 1 /2011 [1/11/11] Please ensure that the Larimer County No. 2 Ditch Company signs off on the construction mylars prior to delivery to the City for City signatures. Topic: General Number: 67 Created: 1 /11 /2011 [1/11/11] A Development Construction Permit (DCP) will not be required for this project. Drive approach permits and an excavation permit (if applicable) for the water line relocation will instead be required.

Department: PFA Issue Contact: Carie Dann Topic: Fire Number: 64 Created: 1 /11 /2011 Under Note 1 on the Site Plan, please also insert "Emergency Access" to go along with Access, Utility and Drainage easements. Department: Traffic Operations Issue Contact: Ward Stanford Topic: Traffic Number: 39 Created: 11 /2/2010 [12/30/101 The Final Landscape Plan still shows Littleleaf Lindens as street trees along Frey Street. Further discussion with Traffic Operations is needed. [11/2/10] Traffic feels the Little Leaf Linden trees as shown on the landscape plan will be a sight distance issue for residents backing out of the driveways to see traffic on Frey St. and for Frey Street motorists seeing the backing vehicles. The LTL can have a very low canopy as it matures causing sight distance issues with vehicles and with traffic signage. Please revise to a street tree that lower canopy meets sight distance criteria as stated in the LCUASS. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: General Number: 58 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/10] No comments at this time. If there is another round of review, I do want to receive a copy to view all changes. Page 3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This is a request to subdivide and replat a platted parcel of land into four (4) lots to contain four (4) separate single-family dwellings and one (1) carriage house dwelling. Each dwelling unit will have either a detached or attached garage. The existing lots, platted as Frey Street Cottages, are located at the southeast corner of LaPorte Avenue and Frey Street. The parcel is currently vacant and is in the NCL - Neighborhood Conservation, Low Density District. The Final Site Plan shows a total of 4 dwelling units, presumably not accounting for the approved carriage house on the rear of Lot 3. Since the carriage house was granted a modification of standard it must be accounted for on the Final Site Plan. If the developer/property owner wants to completely eliminate the carriage house then the Final Plan would not be in conformance with the approved PDP by virtue of decreasing the number of dwelling units by more than 1 %, which would constitute a Major Amendment to the approved PDP. This would require going back to an Administrative Public Hearing per Section 2.2.10(B)(1) of the Land Use Code. There is not a definable time frame in which the carriage house must be built and, therefore, it would be beneficial to the developer/property owner to keep it on the development plans and possibly do a Major Amendment in the future if the intent were to eliminate the carriage house completely. Number: 53 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/101 There appear to be numerous errors or inconsistencies in the SITE DATA, COVERAGE BREAKDOWN, NET DENSITY and GROSS DENSITY on the Site Plan. Please see Current Planning's red -lined plan and make revisions accordingly. Number: 54 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/10] Per the information shown on the Site Plan and the Subdivision Plan there does not appear to be any street right-of-way (ROW) within the defined City Park North property boundary. Therefore, street ROW cannot be netted out of the gross acreage of the property, as shown on the Site Plan. Number: 55 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/10] As shown on the Subdivision Plat, the note stating:... "See City Code 3.4.1(E)(2) for allowable uses within a wildlife buffer easement."... must also be included on the Site Plan. Number: 56 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/10] The indicator (and location) for the ditch right-of-way in Tract A on the Site Plan is not consistent with that shown on the Subdivision Plat. Topic: Subdivision Plat Number. 57 Created: 12/30/2010 [12/30/101 There is a 5' Utility Easement shown along the north line of Lot 3 on the Site Plan and the Subdivision Plat. The developer/property owner is proposing a carriage house/garage building at a zero setback on that lot line. The building cannot be located over the utility easement and this was discussed during the PDP development review process. Whatever utility is to be in the easement to provide service(s) to buildings on Lots 3 & 4 can be located in the 5' Utility Easement along the north line of Lot 2. The 10' Pedestrian Access Easement on Tract A and Lot 4 can become a Pedestrian Access and Utility Easement to help get utilities to the lots.
