Only 42 off-street spaces are provided. The applicant is proposing two spaces in the garage and two spaces in the driveway but the City doesn't allow the counting of - tandem spaces. Therefore, only 34 legal spaces are being provided. The MMN District allows adjacent on -street parking to count towards meeting the required number of spaces (Section 3.2.2[k][3]).

Zoning is unable to determine if 59 legal parking spaces are being provided until the on -street parking is shown.

US WEST will provide telephone service in accordance with the rates and tariffs on file with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission. b. Telephone facilities generally occupy rear lot utility easements, which must be located on terrain which permits trenching operations. C.
