HomeMy WebLinkAbout422 PETERSON STREET P.U.D. - PRELIMINARY & FINAL - 37-95 - CORRESPONDENCE -To: Steve Olt; planner MEMOMHOUM From: Carol Tunner Subject: Project 37-95 422 Peterson Street - P/F Date: September 5, 1995 The proposed house "pop-up" at 422 Peterson Street has no problems for the historic preservation office. Although it is quite an old house, probably before the turn -of -the - century, and it is listed as a contributing building in the National Register district, we feel that the house has been significantly altered from its historic character over the years and it has become a non-contributing building in the historic district. Thus we chose to evaluate the house against the proposed East Side/West Side Design Guidelines rather than the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Buildings. The proposed remodeling is a three-quarter scale, new "Victorian" style with Queen Anne elements including its asymmetrical shape, fish scale shingles, turret, arch -top windows, round -top window, and many other interesting details. These things are typical of the style and of the surrounding neighborhood. The front set -back will stay the same. There are other two -storied homes on the block including a foursquare directly to the south appropriately adjoining the side of "422" where the height variance is requested. Directly across the street is the Queen Anne Victorian Arthur House, one of the most significant homes in the Laurel School National Register Historic District. "422", as a new "old Victorian," meets the ES/WS Guidelines for design infill.on a street of mixed one and two story homes in the historic district. There is not enough information to evaluate solar access, house to lot ratio, driveway and parking areas,.type of siding, etc. ■ PROJECT COMMENT SHEET CurrentPlanning DATE: 15 August 1995 DEPARTMENT: PROJECT: 37-95 422 PETERSON STREET PUD - P/F PLANNER: Steve Olt All comments must be received by: Friday, 1 September 0 No Problems ❑ Problems or Concerns (see below) Although the plans are schematic in nature, actual construction details will most likely result in some revision to the details of these elevations.

Ridgely 422 Peterson Street Fort Collins, CO. 80524 Dear Tom, Staff has reviewed your documents for the 422 Peterson Street P.U.D. - Preliminary and Final that were submitted to the City on August 21, 1995, and would like to offer the following comments: The Light & Power Department has stated that if proposed construction is in the vicinity of the electrical service (within 10'), or if the owner doesn't know where the electric services are, they need to contact Light & Power engineering. 2. The Building Inspection Department has stated that a building permit should be obtained prior to beginning construction. Structural drawings bearing the seal and signature of a registered Colorado engineer or architect should be submitted with the application for the permit. 3. A copy of comments received from the City's Historical Preservation Planner is enclosed with this letter. 4. The building elevations should indicate the roof peak elevation (29'-5", or thereabouts) and the plans should simply provide a statement about the reason for the P.U.D. request (similar to the explanation on the back of the application). This will be for the benefit of the Planning and Zoning Board members, who may not necessarily see or read the application. This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request. Please be aware of the following, date and deadline to assure your ability to stay on schedule for the October 23, 1995 Planning and Zoning Board hearing: ****************************************************************** One colored rendering and 8 folded copies of final revisions reflecting the comments in Item 4 (for the Planning and Zoning Board packets) are due on October 16,1995. ****************************************************************** 281 North College Avenue • P.O.
