Dear Mr. Vansant:
The City of Fort Collins Engineering Development Review Department recently met with you to discuss
the access problems associated with the Harmony Ridge P.U.D.. The City realizes the hardships placed
on your development to provide the Seneca St. connection to the New Harmony Rd. alignment.
Staff has decided to allow this development to utilize Chokecherry Trail as a primary access temporarily
and construct a temporary secondary access which uses the Old Harmony Rd. alignment to tie in to
Seneca St.. The following requirements shall be met in order for the temporary access to be constructed
and utilized.
1.) Provide an escrow for the purchase of R.O.W., design, and construction of the Seneca St. connection
to New Harmony Rd. plus 25% prior to the issuance of any building permits.
2.) No more than 25% of total buildout of this site can occur with the temporary access conditions.
Additional buildout will require dedication and construction of Seneca Street connecting to New
Harmony to function as the primary access. If at such time, the Seneca Street R.O.W. has not been
dedicated to the City, the Developer has the right to ask the City Council to consider condemnation
procedures to obtain the necessary R.O.W..
3.) No building permits will be issued for in Tract 3 or the three buildings in Tract 2 adjacent to
Chokecherry Trail until Seneca Street improvements and connection to New Harmony are complete.
4.) Design of temporary conditions must be complete and submitted for review to the City by 11:30 AM
on Friday July 10, 1998 for this project to be heard at the July 16' Planning and Zoning Board Hearing.
Attached are redlines showing our thoughts on the alignment of this temporary secondary access.
If you have any questions concerning these conditions or if I can be of further assistance please contact
me at (970)221-6605.
Sincerely,
Michael K. Dean, P.E.
