Comment Number: 12 Comment Originated: 05/11/2018 05/11/2018: SOLAR ARRAYS Commercial rooftop structures and ground mounted solar arrays require a separate plan review and permit from the Poudre Fire Authority. Refer to IFC 605.11.1 for access and pathway details. General Requirements for Marking: > Direct Current conduits, enclosures, raceways, junction boxes, cable f3 The fire code requires aerial access on at least one, long side of any building greater than 30 feet in height. Based upon the proposed site design, the project will not be able to meet this requirement per IFC Appendix D, Section D105.3. When the site plan is unable to meet the prescription of the code, the project team will need to explore ways of achieving the intent of the code via alternative means of code compliance. Further discussion will be needed on this issue. Code language provided below: >2015 IFC Appendix D; Poudre Fire Authority Administrative Policy 85-5: In order to accommodate the access requirements for aerial fire apparatus (ladder trucks), required fire lanes shall be 26 foot wide minimum on at least one long side of the building. At least one of the required access routes meeting this condition shall be located within a minimum of 15 feet and a maximum of 30 feet from the building, and shall be positioned parallel to one entire side of the building Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 05/11/2018 05-16-2018 UPDATE At the City meeting today the project team stated they would be meeting off line with PFA with a proposal to meet the intent of alternative means and methods. 05/11/2018: ALTERNATIVE MEANS & METHODS Where project size and scope and/or site constraints conflict with fire code compliance, the intent of the fire code may be met via alternative means and methods, as approved by the fire marshal. As per IFC 104.8 & 104.9, the fire marshal may allow this approach when perimeter access and/or aerial apparatus access requirements cannot be met on the site plan. A written plan to meet the intent of the code via alternative means and methods will need to be submitted to Fire Marshal, Bob Poncelow for review and approval prior to final plans approval.

Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: Please verify that the existing transformers on the south of the building are protected during construction Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: There will be a significant outage during removal and replacement of the transformer in the alley. We will need to coordinate with the garage and PFA to create a temporary transformer set-up during installation of the underground vault and installation of the sub -grade transformer. 05/15/2018: Section 3.4.7 (F)(2) requires the dominant building material of the historic buildings (masonry - brick and block) to be used as the primary material for new construction. The applicant should be prepared to demonstrate compliance with this portion of the code. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: 3.4.7 (F)(4) calls for preservation and enhancement of existing visual and pedestrian between the site and neighborhood focal points. In this Downtown context, focal points would be the Old Town Historic District along Mathews and Library Park along Mathews. The applicant has addressed the pedestrian connections and should consider and then improve the justification for how the new construction preserves and enhances those visual connections. Department: Planning Services Contact: Clark Mapes, 970-221-6225, cmapes@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: The building: Overall, the project is highly consistent with longstanding planning for the Downtown. The most significant Planning comments involve questions about the building scale and design. Staff has seen a sequence of iterations. The FIRST iteration was most clearly supportable under code standards. For discussion at the meeting: whether and how we can go back through the iterations including revisiting the first one. Subsequent iterations would require at least one major Modification of a key standard and more difficult findings regarding compatibility, coherent/meaningful massing modulation, and design details. Understood that there have already been discussions about these issues, and that the LPC is also currently reviewing the design as well. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 For discussion at the meeting or as follow-up if more appropriate: whether the structured parking is DEPENDENT on not having a 4th floor stepback, and exactly how to proceed in evaluating that issue if a proposal were to move forward with a Modification request for that. If a proposal were to move forward with the Modification request to omit the 4th story stepback, staff would like to coordinate on a side by side comparison of a plan that meets the standard and any proposed plan that does not.05/15/2018: Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: Specific details in later iterations that warrant further development include a top treatment such as a cornice -type feature where the building meets the sky, detailing of the base portion where the building relates directly to pedestrians, windows on the south wall that were eliminated based on interpretation of LPC comments, and details where different materials meet. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: For clarification: the interrelated functions of bike parking, parking ramp, elevator, and ground floor hallways. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: For clarification: sidewalk details and long-term maintenance. 4 05/14/2018: The abbreviation for Shademaster Honeylocust is not consistent between the plant list and landscape plans (shows both GL TR and GL SK). Please update that this symbol to remain consistent. Comment Number: 8 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: Street trees should be spaced 30 feet minimum and 40 feet maximum. Please adjust spacing to meet this requirement, or detail the reasoning for the 51-74 feet spacing between street trees. Department: Historic Preservation Contact: Maren Bzdek, 970-221-6206, mbzdek@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: Conceptual review discussion with LPC in March established the area of adjacency as the abutting Frozen Food Center at 133 Mathews, the McIntyre House at 137/143 Mathews, the Old Town Historic District (more specifically, the two contributing buildings at 238-240 and 250 E Mountain), 300 E Oak, 210 E Oak, 142 Remington, and 148 Remington. All of these buildings are designated landmarks or are determined to be eligible for designation, which triggers the application of LUC Section 3.4.7 and the requirements for compatibility with these historic structures. As noted in discussions to date, the most sensitive building would be the abutting structure at 133 Mathews. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: LPC comments on compatibility with the area of adjacency, to date, have focused on the relationship of the south elevation and southeast corner of the new construction with 133 E Mathews. Their notes have requested a stronger response to the height, width, defining architectural characteristics, and materiality of that building. Staff notes that the applicant response to those requests is currently in process and will benefit from further conceptual review with the LPC on the evening of May 16 at their regular meeting. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: Historic Preservation staff have been in regular communication with the planners who have been assigned to this BDR and our understanding is that the modification request regarding the 3-story stepback requirement is still in process and will require comment from our division as well as the LPC once that is underway. The relevant code section, 3.4.7 (F)(1), calls for "similar" height, setback and width of new structures with existing historic structures to the maximum extent feasible. Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 05/15/2018 05/15/2018: Staff notes the recent addition of windows on the south elevation that reference the windows on 133 Mathews as a positive contribution towards satisfying a portion of 3.4.7 (F)(2), which calls out using horizontal elements and window patterns to create visual ties among buildings and maintaining the pattern of primary building entrance facing the street to the maximum extent feasible.

Department: Forestry Contact: Molly Roche, , mroche@fcgov.com Topic: Landscape Plans Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: There are several existing trees on -site, including City street trees. It appears that tree inventory and mitigation has already been provided by City Forestry staff — please confirm. I am assuming that the initial inventory occurred at time of first submittal, which was in 2016? There appears to be (2) existing Kentucky Coffeetrees along Mathews Street that are of transplantable size — please explore this option. All existing trees should be retained and protected to the extent reasonably feasible. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: Tim Buchanan's comments from 6/2/2016 stated: Define how the two Kentucky Coffeetrees along Mathews will be addressed. They have average shape and form. They could be used on the project or moved off site to another City property. Forestry generally thinks that moving them to another City property might be preferred and planting two new Espresso Coffeetrees with a better shape. Please define how the project wants to address these two Coffeetrees. On sheet 5, it states that the two Kentucky Coffeetrees along Mathews will be transplanted. Is it possible to keep these trees in their current spot? If not, it would be desired to transplant the trees back into the City right-of-way as a part of this project. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: Tim Buchanan's comments from 7/15/2016 stated: Under notes in the tree mitigation table add a statement to the notes for existing tree number 1 and 2 in the tree mitigation table that says: Tree pruning to provide clearance of building to be approved by the City Forester. Please address. Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: Please evaluate if tree grates are necessary in the right-of-way, especially along Mathews Street. If trees are planted in irrigated turf, which it looks like turf is provided along Mathews Street, that is better for establishment and growth than tree grates. Tree grates are expensive and not necessary if trees are going into a turf area anyway. Irrigated turf is much more preferred. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 05/14/2018 05/14/2018: Please provide irrigated turf and irrigation in general to all trees on -site, including tress in the right-of-way.
