10. Is not Bon Homme Richard Drive a collector street? Street trees, as
shown on the Landscape Plan on Bon Homme Richard Drive coming in
from the First or Second Filing, should be continued along that street in
this filing. The revised Landscape Plan does not show any new street
trees.
11. Trail connections from Snook Court, into the common open area, and
from Shangi i-La, into the future Fourth Filing, should be provided.
12. See additional comments on red -lined Site and Landscape Plans being
forwarded to the applicant.
13. *****The City's GIS Department has discovered that a 35' to 40' wide
strip on this property along the west line is in Larimer County and
outside of the Urban Growth Area boundary. This affects several lots in
the Registry Ridge PUD, First Filing and almost all of Lots 1 - 27 in this
Third Filing. The necessary annexation.and revision to the Urban Growth
Area boundary must take place before this development request can be
scheduled for a Planning and Zoning Board public hearing and
decision*****. The annexation request has been submitted and is in the
process.
This completes the staff comments at this time. Additional comments could be
forthcoming as they are received from City departments and outside reviewing
agencies.
Under the development review process and schedule there is a 90 day plan
revision submittal time -frame mandated by the City. The 90 day
turnaround period begins on the date of the comment letter (June 5,
2000) prepared by the project planner in the Current Planning
Department. Upon receipt, the revisions will be routed to the appropriate City
departments and outside reviewing agencies, with their comments due to the
project planner no later than the third weekly staff review meeting (Wednesday
mornings) following receipt of the revisions. At this staff review meeting the
item will be discussed and it will be determined if the project is ready to go to
the Planning and Zoning Board for a decision. If so, will be scheduled for the
nearest Board hearing date with an opening on the agenda.
