Home My WebLink AboutNEW BELGIUM, 4TH FILING, PACKAGING HALL & BUCKINGHAM ST. - PDP & AMENDED ODP - 1-95F - CORRESPONDENCE - STAFF'S PROJECT COMMENTS (7)Topic: F/oodplain Comments Number: 2 Created: 8/29/2005 [12/28/05] [8/29/05] Because the packaging facility and associated chemicals already exist on the site, per City Code Section 10-46, a non -conforming critical facility can be relocated with in the same parcel of land and not lose its legal non -conforming status. To document this, please complete a floodplain use permit ($25 permit fee). The Hazardous Materials Impact Analysis will be attached to the permit as this documentation. It is recommended that any chemical storage be at an elevation above the 500-year flood. Please contact Marsha Hilmes-Robinson at 224-6036 for questions. Topic: Irrigation Line Number: 3 Created: 8/29/2005 [12/28/05] [8/29/05] The proposed plan would enclose the existing Coy Ditch irrigation ditch into a pipe. Please provide a signature on the plans from representatives of the ditch company. Check how the tree on the south side of Buckingham will be affected. Topic: Landscape Plan Number: 81 Created: 12/28/2005 [12/28/05] The street trees along Buckingham look to be only 4 feet from the proposed storm sewer that parallels Buckingham. A 10-foot separation is required. It is recommended that a meeting between Stormwater, Engineering, Planning and the applicant's engineer and landscape architect be set up to try to come up with an acceptable solution. It is suggested that the storm line be realigned to be in between the Coy Ditch line and the trees. Special care should be taken to place manhole lids outside of the sidewalk area. Topic: Storm Sewer Profiles Number: 64 Created: 12/20/2005 [12/20/05] At final please provide storm sewer profiles. Check at this point and see whether the existing. utilities in 1st Street would conflict with the proposed storm lines. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Roger Buffington Topic: Water/WW Number: 19 Created: 9/1/2005 [12/21/05] We just need to remember to address the pipe bridge crossing the sewer easement: [9/1/05] We will attempt to work with the pipe bridge as shown. I will check with the City Attorney's office to see if there may be any special requirements such as hold harmless agreements, etc. Number: 65 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Provide easement for the re -located fire hydrant. Number: 66 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Connect the domestic water service and the fire line to the 12-inch main. Page 4 Department: PFA Issue Contact: Ron Gonzales Topic: Fire Number: 82 Created: 12/28/2005 [12/28/051 Corrosives, flammable liquids, or reactive or toxic materials (as defined in the Uniform Fire Code), if used, stored or handled on this site, must have a Hazardous Materials Impact Analysis (HMIA) completed and supplied to the Fire Department and the Planning Department. Department: Transportation Planning Issue Contact: David Averill Topic: Buckingham Street Plans Number: 34 Created: 9/13/2005 [12/21/05] Repeat comment. You may have included this on the utility plans but it does not show up on the site plan I was routed. Thanks. [9/13/05] Buckingham Road Improvements plan set - show a Type III barricade at the east end of the 8' walk where it terminates. Thanks. Topic: General Number: 8 Created: 8/30/2005 [12/21/05] The amended TIS is still lacking in analysis with regards to Pedestrian Level of Service Standards. Only one destination area (Other) was included. At a minimum, the consulting engineer needs to include Old Fort Collins Heritage Park, Buckingham Park, and the residential neighborhood to the south of this project as likely pedestrian destinations. If a PIED LOS standard cannot be met, it must be stated as to why that standard cannot be met - be it hardship, constructability, etc. [8/30/05] The TIS as submitted is incomplete. There is a narrative that addresses Bike/Ped/Transit LOS but none of the worksheets to support those conclusions are included. Please have your consulting traffic engineer contact me directly so that we can adequately address this issue. Thanks. Department: Stormwater-Water-Wastewater Issue Contact: Basil Hamdan Topic: Drainage Plan Number: 62 Created: 12/20/2005 [12/20/05] At final a drainage easement will be required for the area on the south side of Buckingham that will be used as temporary detention. Number: 63 Created: 12/20/2005 [12/20/05] Please make sure that off -site flows are not directed through the temporary detention pond. Currently the design shows two storm lines discharging into the temporary pond. Topic: Drainage Report Number: 80 Created: 12/28/2005 [12/28/05] In calculating the required detention for the off -site pond, the output from the on - site detention pond is factored into the design, however the 4.4 cfs coming from the inlets on Buckingham Street were not included in the analysis. Since these inlets will be draining into that pond their contribution should be added to the input to the off -site pond. Page 3 Topic: General Number: 23 Created: 9/2/2005 [12/21/05] This does not appear to have been addressed. [9/2/05] Show the eastern lot line boundary on the site plan, landscape plan, and construction plans to verify how the improvements coincide with the eastern boundary of Lot 1 of this development. Number: 24 Created: 9/2/2005 [12/21/05] Please clarify beyond the note provided with limits of where the under -grounding is proposed. Is it along the PDP boundary only, all of Buckingham, etc.? [9/2/05] Provide information regarding the under -grounding of the overhead line as it lies within the proposed street improvements. Number: 27 Created: 9/2/2005 [12/21/05] Appears to be unrevsolved. [9/2/05] A letter of intent is required from the Coy Ditch Company for the work proposed by the development. Number: 83 Created: 12/28/2005 [12/28/05] The storm sewer manholes behind the curb along Buckingham Street appear to be partially in the Buckingham sidewalk; there needs to be a separation from the sidewalk as prescribed in Figure 16-1 of LCUASS. Topic: Plat Number: 29 Created: 9/2/2005 [12/21/05] Appears to be unresolved. The plat shows an irrigation easement while the certificate of dedication states easements are conveyed to the City and the irrigation line is not the City's. [9/2/05] The plat indicates an "irrigation easement" which appears to be dedicated with the plat. As the dedication statement dedicates all easements to the City, it appears this ditch easement should be indicated otherwise. More than likely, an easement will need to be dedicated to the Coy Ditch Co. by separate document, with the recording information provided on the plat. Department: Natural Resources Issue Contact: Doug Moore Topic: Existing Trees Number: 73 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Contact Tim Buchanan, the City Forester to see if any existing trees are considered to be significant and if they will need to be preserved or mitigated. Number: 74 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Please add the tree preservation standard to the general note on the utility plans. Make sure to show the location of the protective fence on the appropriate plans and provide a detail showing how the fence is to be installed. Number: 75 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] The construction of the temporary detention pond on the parcel to the south of the project site is allowed within the buffer zone of the existing riparian forest. NRD will not require this disturbance within the buffer zone to be re-vegbtated with Fort Collins native species since this is just a temporary location that will be relocated in the near future. Page 2 STAFF PROJECT REVIEW City of Fort Collins BHA DESIGN, INC. Date: 01/04/2006 LUKE OLDENBURG 4803 INNOVATION DR. FORT COLLINS, CO 80525 Staff has reviewed your submittal for NEW BELGIUM BREWERY, PACKAGING HALL & BUCKINGHAM ST PDP & AMENDED ODP - TYPE ll, and we offer the following comments: ISSUES: Department: Engineering Issue Contact: Marc Virata Topic: Buckingham Street Plans Number: 35 Created: 9/13/2005 [12/21/05] This appears to be unresolved. [9/13/05] We will need buy off from the utility companies that the 9' utility easement behind the irrigation easement is acceptable given that the utility easement is no longer joined by street right-of-way. Number: 41 Created: 9/13/2005 [12/21/05] The profile sheet for the Coy Ditch does not show a proposed grade line to see if this issue was resolved. [9/13/05] The amount of cover over the crossing in which the realigned ditch ties into is less than standard. That combined with the structure being corrugated metal raises a general concern. We would want to see the corrugated metal pipes removed and replaced with twin elliptical pipes (RCP?) to achieve better cover and provide a pipe type that is to standard. Number: 42 Created: 9/14/2005 [12/21/05] The issue is unresolved. Ideally the plat would establish a lot line to coincide with the PDP boundary and the limit of public improvements on Buckingham Street so that it appears the limit of public improvements was not arbitrarily decided. [9/14/05] Please show lot lines and PDP boundaries on the street plans (such as to help illustrate that the sidewalk along Buckingham Street ends at a property line). Number: 44 Created: 9/14/2005 [9/14/05] At time of final plan, provide cross sections along Buckingham Street at 50' intervals. Number: 46 Created: 9/14/2005 [12/21/05] Appears to be unresolved. With the curb extensions, this information is needed. [9/14/05] Provide flowline curve/line table data for verification. The inset parking narrowing appears fine bt I'd like to see the radii specified just to be sure. Number: 71 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] The curb extensions with the flowline passing behind the curb extensions is an issue as it is a maintenance concern for the City. Number: 72 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] The notes from bha seemed to state of variance request would be submitted for the curb extensions, this apparently was not received. Page 1 Number: 67 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Add notes regarding depth of water service and fire line through the detention pond area. Number: 68 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Show the water/sewer lines on the grading plan (at least in detention pond area). Number: 69 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Is there a conflict between water service/fire line and the NWCWD 24-inch main? Pothole now. Number: 70 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Show water/sewer lines in the Coy Ditch profile. Number: 76 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/05] Add note to locate and protect all valve boxes and manholes during the pavement milling operations. Number: 77 Created: 12/21 /2005 (12/21/05] Show electric duct bank on utility plans. Is there any conflict with sewer service? Number: 78 Created: 12/21 /2005 [12/21/051 See plans for other comments. Comments from Current Planning One of the objectives of the Lighting Plan should be to protect the Buckingham neighborhood from glare. All the proposed fixtures appear to be appropriate with one exception. The fixture described as E3 does not appear to be full cutoff. The specification sheet indicates that the UCM-H3 includes a "sag lens" which reveals the light source. Please check to make sure that the illumination in the area where the E3 fixtures are indicated does not produce glare. Should another fixture type be selected? Perhaps the UCM-H3 can be equipped with the "house side shield" which is listed as an available option. 2. The W3 and W4 fixtures look fine can be tilted after installation. Please add to General Note number 4: "Any exterior lighting fixture that comes factory -equipped with adjustable brackets shall maintain a 90-degree cutoff angle." Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit. If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750. Sincerely: 7 Ted Shepard Chief Planner Page 5
