HIGH ADDITION - SITE PLAN ADVISORY REVIEW - 13-98B - DECISION - MINUTES/NOTESPlanning and Zoning Board Minutes March 15, 2001 Page 4 Mr. Schlueter replied that staff has not really got into yet what the design or fix will be for that intersection. Member Craig asked Mr. Schlueter to involve Mr. DiMirando in the process. Mr. Schlueter replied he would. Member Craig asked what the city was going to do to improve the health and safety of the children. Tom Reiff, Transportation Department replied that the Engineering Department has identified the north shoulder of Vine Street to be improved by paving the soft shoulder that is currently there. That would add approximately 6 feet of bike lane and give or take an additional 4 feet of pavement for the sidewalk portion of it. It will go from Lancer to the other edge of Lancer all the way out to Taft Hill. The County will also make improvements to their portion of the street. Member Craig asked when the construction would occur. Mr. Reiff replied that the actual construction will not take place until the asphalt plants open in the spring and then it will be phased in. He was not sure what the time frame would be. He sees this as being completed by summer. Member Colton moved for approval of the Lincoln Junior High School Addition, #40--W. 0-45'D Member Bernth seconded the motion. The motion was approved 5-0. Project: Project Description: Recommendation: Settler's Green at Rigden Farm PDP — Modification of Standards Request for two Modifications to Section 3.5.3(D)(3) of the Land Use Code. Approval with Conditions Planning and Zoning Board Minutes March 15, 2001 Page 3 Recommendation: Approval Hearing Testimony, Written Comments and Other Evidence: Lynn DiMirando, 1529 West Vine spoke about his concerns with health and safety of the kids that go back and forth to Lincoln Junior High, traffic and parking with the new addition and wastewater runoff. Planner Shepard responded that there should be a presentation from the applicant. Ron Daggett, Poudre School District gave the applicant's presentation. He stated that this project is an addition to the Junior High School and will contain a gymnasium, three or four classrooms, some work areas and a variety of things for the youth. Poudre School District will use the building during the normal school days from 7:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. The Boys and Girls Club will use the facility in the afternoon, evenings, weekends and summer months. Mr. Daggett responded to some of the health and safety concerns. He stated that he has been in contact with someone from the city Engineering Department. He stated there are plans for some crosswalk work as well as shoulders and bicycle lanes in that area. As far as parking and traffic goes, he did not foresee any increase in traffic or parking. The children who attend the Boys and Girls Club do not drive automobiles. They will be riding school buses or walking to the site. There is adequate parking on the site and if that becomes an issue, they will increase the parking. Lincoln is the largest Junior High site in the district and there is plenty of room to increase parking. Mr. Daggett responded to the issue of wastewater runoff. He stated he could resolve that by rebuilding the intersection so the water would not run across Vine Drive into Mr. DiMirando's front yard. They have already provided detention on the site to take care of the runoff from the new building. The issue is the historic runoff. Glenn Schlueter, Stormwater Department added that the School District has agreed to design a detention pond and also to rebuild the intersection. That would be an offsite improvement that we would normally not require, so if they are willing to do that it would be great. CITIZEN INPUT Mr. DiMirando felt that raising the intersection any more would just create more problems. He submitted pictures of the intersection for the Board to view.
