What would the City allow, in regards to development, to the east and west of this development? A. Anything can be proposed, however there are few developments that would fit on this small of a piece of land. There would also be problems with access on both pieces of property. 62. When will you start building? A. Not before next fall. 63. Have you done any other developments in Fort Collins? A. Yes, Indian Hills Village Duplexes on west Prospect Street. 64. What commercial development have you done? A. I haven't done any in Fort Collins, this will be the first. I have done a 2,300 square foot commercial building in Louisville. 65. Did you consider residential development on this site? A. No. 66. Will there be retail in this office park? 5y 48. Due to the high volume of traffic on Boardwalk people can't get across the street to go the park. 49. The Traffic Department should put a light in at the on Boardwalk where the park is so that people could get to it. 50. We would like to see the developer keep the building height as low as possible. 51. Will this development block the view of the skyline that the residents currently have? A. The builder will take about five feet off of the land before building. The buildings will. only be 22 to 24 feet in height. 52. Landscaping is very important to us, especially on the east side of the office park. 53. Could the City be more versatile to letting the developer spend more money landscaping the east side of the property and less money landscaping the west side. 54. What is keeping you from purchasing more of the land and doing more development like this office park? A. This type of development is risky and must be done in small sections. 55. This development is better than a large commercial building. 56. What could go in just west of this development? 57. Is there a chance that in the future you expand on the land to the east and west? A. If the owner would give the property to me I would incur the liability for the property. 58. Can't the City help the developer with the open space to the east and west. 59. Can the Natural Resources Department look at the property for open space purposes? A. Can have Natural Resources look at this property. 60. Can the City relax street oversizing? 5 34. We would encourage the City to not allow access, other than primary, in and out of the office park. 35. Can the Traffic Department elimate left hand turns onto Boardwalk? 36. How will you contain waste at the office park? A. Walled dumpsters will be installed; one dumpster per building. The walled dumpsters will like part of the building. 37. What is the height of the buildings? A. Approximately 22 to 24-feet. 38. We would like the City to look at ground height when looking at building height in the development review process. 39. The south side of Fort Collins needs to have more of a future view on development and traffic problems. 40. There should be heavy traffic on College Avenue, light traffic on JFK Parkway, and residential traffic on Landings Drive. 41. I don't see the incentive for vehicles to use Landings Drive if JFK Parkway has traffic signals. 42. The City should put a four -way -stop on Landings between Broadway and Horsetooth. 43. Maybe a three -way -stop at Landings and Boardwalk would help control traffic problems. 44. What would you (developer) recommend that we do about traffic problems? A. Meet with the City's Transportation Department. 45. We should invite the Transportation Department to our annual board meeting to discuss these issues. 46. When JFK Parkway goes through the Traffic Department should make Landings Drive less attractive. 47. I heard that JFK Parkway was going to be put through in the spring of 1995. 4 19. How does this office park compare in density to the Boardwalk Offices? A. Density is smaller since Boardwalk Offices are two story buildings and these buildings will be .one story with a loft. 20. Whaf kind of lighting will be on this site? A. The minimal amount of light adequate for security. 21. We are concerned about the traffic on Boardwalk and Landings Drive. 22. Vehicles always cut across Boardwalk to get to College Avenue. 23. Is there anything'the residents can do about the speed or volume of traffic on Boardwalk and Landings Drive? A. When JFK Parkway gets put through it may take a lot of the traffic off of Boardwalk. 24. Can we get Landings Drive closed off at Boardwalk? 25. Why doesn't the City take care of the traffic problems on Landings Drive and Boardwalk before any more development is approved? A. The residents should talk with Rick Ensdorff regarding alternatives. 26. Can the City put in a three way stop sign on Boardwalk and Landings Drive? 27. A light at JFK Parkway would help. 28. 80% of the traffic on Landings Drive is going to Horsetooth Rd. 29. There are some inexpensive solutions to putting JFK Parkway through. We are tired of waiting for this to happen. 30. Maybe installing stop signs would help. 31. It is hard to make a left on to Boardwalk from Landings Drive. 32. The traffic count on Boardwalk is the same as the traffic count on Mason. 33. Would the developer have a problem if Landings Drive was closed at Boardwalk? Would you argue against us? A. I don't have a problem with it. 3 A. The city may require access; however, it is not currently planned. 8. How much land is in the green area on your plans? A. Around ten to twenty feet. 9. Are you anticipating purchasing the property to the east and west of the development? �Mll 10. Are there provision for sidewalk installation? A. The City may require a sidewalk along Boardwalk. 11. Would you buy additional land for another access point or for landscaping reasons? A. No, I would not purchase the property, but if the owner would give it to me I would incur the liability. 12. What will happen to the land, to the east and west of the development, in the future? A. Judging from the amount of land it looks like there will be very little the owner could do with it. 13. What will the color of the stucco on the building be? A. I dolt know yet. 14. We don't want the stucco to be white; we want a color that will blend in. 15. We would like to see one half of the density and lots of trees in the development. 16. How many people will use this complex? A. Approximately people per main floor. I do not anticipate that medical/doctors will want to be in this office park. 17. What is the expected clientele of the office park? A. Small business like insurance bookers. 18. Will there be a bank in the office park? N 2 10 01 CF. me 1.1 In go • 81 131 of I i ii Project: Boardwalk Office Park Date: December 1, 1994 Developer. Jon Prouty Planner. Steve Olt The meeting was called to order by Steve Olt, City of Fort Collins Planning Department. There was a brief overview of the planning process. Jon Prouty has proposed to build an office park on Boardwalk. He has proposed six to eight one story buildings with a one story loft and full basement. The zoning on the property is zoned RLP, low density planned residential. The buildings will be built to look like homes. There are duplexes with 1280 sq feet per main floor, per side. The lofts will be 480 square feet. QUESTIONS, COMMENTS AND CONCERNS One of our main concerns is the problems with traffic on Landings Drive. 2. How can we discourage traffic on Landings Drive? 3. Will there be deviations in the buildings? A. There will be deviations on the interior but not the exterior. 4. What is the criteria for you to build eight buildings rather than six? A. It will depend on the amount of room there is for eight buildings; there will probably only be room enough to build six buildings. 5. What does the developer determine that adequate landscaping is? 6. Can you compare what landscaping you will do to the natural beauty that is already existing. 7. Will you allow for access to and from the office park on Landings Drive on the East side? 1
