Sincerely, *teveOlt Project Planner xc: Engineering Zoning Stormwater Utility Poudre Fire Authority Transportation Planning Traffic Operations DALCO LAND, LLC TST Engineers Project File #32-95F The following comments and concerns were expressed at the weekly Staff Review meeting on September 27, 2000: Engineering (Sheri Wamhof ) 10. There are utility easements shown going through building envelopes on the subdivision plat. This is not permitted. 11. This development request is ready to go to a Planning and Zoning Board public hearing for a decision on the project. Stormwater Utility (Donald Dustin) 12. There is a proposed gas station on the site. This requires some form of spill containment. Donald has called TST Engineers to make them aware of this requirement. 13. This development request is ready to go to a Planning and Zoning Board public hearing for a decision on the project. Transportation Planning (Kathleen Reavis) 14. Can there be a direct sidewalk connection from the daycare facility to the sidewalk along South Shields Street? 15. This development request is ready to go to a Planning and Zoning Board public hearing for a decision on the project. This completes the staff comments at this time. Additional comments could be forthcoming as they are received from City departments and outside reviewing agencies. City staff has determined that this development request is ready to be scheduled for a Planning and Zoning Board hearing date for a decision. It is being put on the November 2nd Board agenda. However, the Fort Collins - Loveland Water and South Fort Collins Sanitation Districts comments are significant enough to possibly warrant additional review. Please contact Terry Farrill directly to discuss his concerns. Terry must contact me no later than Friday, October 13th and inform me that it is acceptable to keep this item on the November 2nd Board agenda. The dates to submit necessary items to Current Planning for the agenda are as follows: 8. Representatives of the Technical Services (Mapping/Drafting Department) offered the following comments: a. The south line of Building Envelope 3 appears to be a solid line. This is confusing. b. Hatching for the South Fort Collins easement is too light to reproduce. C. The property boundary and legal description on the subdivision plat do close. Please contact Jim Hoff, at 221-6588, or Wally Muscott, at 221-6605, if you have questions about their comments. 9. Ron Gonzales of the Poudre Fire Authority offered the following comments: a. Access appears to be in accordance with the 97 Uniform Fire Code. Fire lanes shall be shown on the subdivision plat as emergency access easements. b. Address numerals shall be visible from the street fronting the property, and also from the fire lane, and posted with a minimum of 6" numerals on a contrasting background (example: bronze numerals on a brown brick are not acceptable). C. The proposed day care and retail buildings exceed 5,000 square feet in size. They must be fire contained or fire sprinklered. d. Fire hydrants are required, with a maximum spacing of 600' along an approved roadway. Each hydrant must be capable of delivering 1,500 gallons of water per minute at a residual pressure of 20 psi. No commercial building can be greater than 300' from a fire hydrant. Please contact Ron, at 221-6570, if you have questions about these comments. 4. Jenny Nuckols and Peter Barnes of the Zoning Department offered the following comments: a. Handicapped spaces are being shown at the commercial buildings but no handicapped ramps are being shown. Please show and label. b. Please be consistent and label all handicapped ramps throughout the site. C. Plant Note #4 on Sheet 3 of 8 of the Landscape Plan - add "...prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy."... to the end of the sentence. This was on the previous plan and should not have been removed. d. ID signs on the residential portion of the project can only be located at a driveway entrance into the project, as set forth in Section 3.8.7(C)(1)(0 of the LUC. THIS IS A REPEAT COMMENT. e. Show building height on the day care elevations. f. Since the dwelling units in the residential buildings aren't on individual platted lots, they are not townhomes. They are multi- family dwellings. The term "townhomes" should not be used. Please contact Jenny or Peter; at 221-6760, if you have questions about these comments. 5. A copy of the comments received from Sheri Wamhoff of the Engineering Department is attached to this comment letter. Additional comments may be found on red -lined plans that are being forwarded to the applicant. Please contact Sheri, at 221-6750, if you have questions about her comments. 6.

Kate Browne of the Thompson School District R2-J has submitted a new Thompson School District R2-J Development Impact Report (attached to this comment letter). Please note that elementary school attendance would now be at Centennial Elementary, not Cottonwood Plains as previously stated. There are no changes to the previously stated middle school and high school attendance locations. According to Master Plan 2000's five-year projection, the estimated student population from these 84 townhome, 2-bedroom units, and other developments that have received final plat approval, should not cause district enrollment to exceed (drop below) service level C. 3. Ward Stanford of Traffic Operations stated that the enhanced crosswalk on Enterprise, Drive, just north of the proposed retail building, is to be smooth, colored asphalt in the center with the City's standard white bars painted diagonally in the center area also. Each side of the center area can have a border, 2' wide, of colored and stamped asphalt. A white Stop Bar should be painted 2' in front of the stamped asphalt and span the appropriate approach lane.
