IF IMPERVIOUSNESS IS INCREASED THEN THERE IS A FEE OF $2175/ACRE. 2. THE DRAINAGE REPORT AND EROSION CONTROL PLANS FALL UNDER STANDARD DESIGN REQUIREMENTS BUT THE DRAINAGE PATTERNS AND OUTFALL RATES NEED TO BE MAINTAINED OR JUSTIFIED IF REVISED. 3. ORIGINAL BUILDING WAS CONSTRUCTED ABOUT 1964, SO ITS IMPERVIOUSNESS IS GRANDFATHERED. 4. CAR WASH WATER AND CONTAINMENT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED AND DOCUMENTED IN THE REPORT. ALSO THE SPILL CONTAINMENT DESIGN FOR GASOLINE FILL AREA. 5. AN EROSION CONTROL SECURITY DEPOSIT WILL BE REQUIRED AND RETURNED AT THE END OF THE PROJECT. 6. I GAVE THEM COPIES OF THE PRELRAIINARY AND FINAL REPORT CHECKLISTS. 21. You are strongly encouraged to discuss your redevelopment plans with the adjacent property owners. Please contact Bill Tiley, 226-2211, property owner to the east, and Arnie Anderson, 484-1984, property owner to the south. Any sharing of curb cuts is encouraged. 22. As we have discussed, the redevelopment does not meet the minimum score on the Auto Related and Roadside Commercial Point Chart of the Land Development Guidance System. Consequently, a variance would have be granted by the Planning and Zoning Board to allow the redevelopment. The variance procedure and criteria are outlined in Section K of the L.D.G.S., page 108. It is advised that any improvement to access in the general area would contribute to a favorable recommendation on a variance request. y 11. If there is food service in the c-store, then a separate application and permit must be submitted to the Larimer County Health Department. Please contact Jim Devore, 498-6775. 12. If there is a cooking range and there is a requirement for a range hood and exhaust fan, then there will be sizable rooftop equipment. This equipment must be totally screened from public view. Screening rooftop equipment on small buildings is a challenge that should be solved ahead of time, not after -the -fact. Also, outside condensing units for the coolers must be screened whether mounted on the roof or ground. 13. Drainage Report and Plans will be reviewed by the Stormwater Utility. If there is to be an increase in the impervious surface, then the stormwater fee is $2,175 per acre. 14. The Drainage Report and Erosion Control Plan fall under the standard design requirements. Drainage patterns and outfall rates need to be maintained or justified if revised. 15. Since the original building was constructed in 1964, its imperviousness is grandfathered. The carwash water and containment area and the gasoline fill area need to be considered and documented in the Drainage Report. An Erosion Control Security Deposit will be required and returned at the end of the project. For further information, please contact Glen Schlueter, 221-6589. 16. As you are aware, the City of Fort Collins is designing a capital improvement project to widen the intersection. Construction is expected to begin in middle to late June and last three months. Rusty McDaniel, 221-6605, is the project manager. 17. Please refer to the Development Manual for information on the content of Utility Plans and Development Agreement. Utility Plans will be required as part of a submittal for a Planned Unit Development. The Development Agreement, made between the City and Sinclair, would be executed after Final approval by the Planning and Zoning Board. Obviously, the timing between your project and the City's project will determine the extent and detail of the Utility Plans. For further information, please contact Kerrie Ashbeck, 221-6750. 18. The development will be assessed a Street Oversizing Fee of $14,005 per acre. 19. Please be aware that the maximum size of a curb cut in Fort Collins is 35 feet. 20. If the City's project and your project are not combined, and your work proceeds independently, then please be aware that any modification of the existing curb cuts on State Highway 287 will require a permit from CDOT. Permit application is made through the City of Fort Collins Engineering Department. 3. Usually, the c-store and the carwash are on separate services. Since your proposal indicates an attached c-store/carwash, you are eligible for one set of services. There may be advantages, however, by using separate services despite the attached configuration. 4. The carwash will require a sand and oil interceptor on the sanitary sewer. If new services are required, tap fees will be adjusted by giving credit for the existing services. For further information water and sanitary sewer issues, please contact Roger Buffington, 221-6681. 5. Redevelopment of the site will require a Planned Unit Development. The submittal must comply with the requirements found in the Land Development Guidance System. It is also recommended that you pick up a copy of the Development Manual which provides information on Utility Plan review and Building Permit review. 6. Landscaping will be required to be shown on a separate Landscape Plan. The plan will be expected to show street trees along both street frontages, building foundation plants, and landscaped islands that feature shrubs to cover and trees. There should be a mix of deciduous and evergreen material. An automatic irrigation system is required. The project planner is available to meet with the landscape architect prior to submittal to address the details. 7. The removal and installation of the underground tanks is regulated and inspected by the Poudre Fire Authority. Separate permits are required for both. Please contact Roger Frasco, 221-6570, for further information. 8. If the fire hydrant that connects to the main in College Avenue needs to be relocated, then there will be work in the State Highway right-of-way. A permit from Colorado Department of Transportation will be required. Please be cautioned that this may require significant lead time to obtain the necessary permit from CDOT. 9. The new buildings will be reviewed by the Building Inspection Department. The canopy will require a separate permit. The setback for the canopy from the property line will be close since the site is tight. It is unlikely that a zero setback will be allowed. 10. Handicap accessibility will be reviewed for compliance with the Uniform Building Code. Please note that there must be a handicap accessible route from the store to the public sidewalk. For further information, please contact Sharon Getz, 221-6760. if February 22, 1996 MEETING DATE: ITEM: APPLICANT: LAND USE DATA: CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS February 12, 1996 Sinclair Redevelopment at College and Drake Mr. Tom Richards and Craig Anderson, Sinclair Oil Company, 333 West Hampden Avenue, Englewood, CO. 80150. Request to demolish and redevelop the facility at College and Drake. The new construction would include new gas pumps, canopy, convenience store, and a one -bay automatic carwash. New curb cut locations are necessitated by the City's intersection widening project. COMMENTS: 1. The site is supplied electrical power by the City of Fort Collins Light and Power Utility. Redevelopment of the site would include new electrical service and transformer. The fees charged for new service would be adjusted by giving credit for existing service. The location of the new transformer must be shown on the site and landscape plans. The transformer should be located within ten feet of hard surface for emergency change -out by a boom truck. The transformer should be screened. Screening can be by a solid enclosure meeting the clearance specifications of the Utility, or by landscaping. The transformer should not be located along either street frontage. For further information, please call Kevin Westhuis, 221-6700. 2. There are an eight inch diameter water lines in both College and Drake that are available to serve the site. There is an 18 inch diameter sewer main in Drake that may serve the site. The existing services to the site may be used or abandoned. If abandoned, the City requires that they be abandoned back to the main. (It is assumed that the existing services will not be adequate for the carwash.)
