Home My WebLink AboutFORT COLLINS HOUSING AUTHORITY, MAINTENANCE FACILITY - IL SITE PLAN REVIEW - 23-96 - SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS - ROUND 1 - LETTER OF INTENTLETTER OF INTENTION July 25, 1996 The Fort Collins Housing Authority will close the purchase of 1400 Riverside on August 1, 1996. After proper zoning approvals are obtained, we intend to use this building as a maintenance facility for the upkeep of the Fort Collins Housing Authority properties. Once in full occupancy, the Housing Authority will solicit for a retail/office space use of the front commercial space. The potential use has not been identified. The maintenance operation consists of residential repairs (i.e. painting, vacancy cleaning, lawn care and building repair). We have a full-time staff of 8 maintenance personnel and we have occasional part-time and seasonal workers. The Housing Authority work sites are scattered in predominantly North Fort Collins and Wellington. The staff utilizing the facility are all field workers. They will be at 1400 Riverside to report to work, pick up a service vehicle and leave for the day. They return at 4:00pm to take their personal vehicles and leave for home. The site at the on set will be unmanned with occasional trips to pick up supplies. As the Housing Authority develops, a maintenance assistant will be stationed at the facility during working hours. We would like to develop the property with a parking structure attached to the existing building to keep our service fleet out of sight and secure during our off work hours. During working hours, staff's personal vehicles will occupy the parking structure while service trucks are in the "field". The building will warehouse household type repair components, cleaning and painting supplies. We will have work space for screening, table saw and a radial arm saw. Lock Smithing space will be designated. Staff office space will be provided. The majority of use is warehouse with a computerized inventory. Flammables and hazardous household materials will be housed in an approved cabinet.
