submit a variance request to the City for less ROW; however, the Director of
Engineering only is authorized to grant such a variance request.
2. There are grade lines associated with this development request that are being shown
off -site. This would require an easement from the affected property owner and a letter
of intent from that owner is required before this request can go to public hearing.
3. There is curb & gutter work associated with this development request that is being
shown off -site. This may require an easement from the affected property owner and a
letter of intent from that owner is required before this request can go to public hearing.
4. The phasing for this development must be clearly shown on all of the Final Compliance
plans.
Water/Wastewater:
The proposed 6" water main, as shown, is problematic. It is a long, dead-end main.
The applicant may be able to bring this main up on the east side of the property.
Please coordinate this with the Poudre Fire Authority.
2. There is an existing sanitary sewer service stub to this property from the AutoZone site.
This service must be used with the new development or abandoned.
Planning:
Some lighting levels along the west side of the property may be a little too high (0.2 -
0.5 foot candles) based on the requirement set forth in Section 3.2.4(D)(8) of the Land
Use Code (LUC).
2. The "vehicular use areas" are not being adequately screened from the street and
adjacent properties, per Sections 3.2.1(E)(4)(b) and 3.2.2(J) of the LUC.
This completes staff (and outside reviewing agencies) review and comments at this time.
Additional comments and red -lined plans may be forthcoming. This proposal is subject to
the 90-day revision re -submittal requirement (from the date of this comment letter,
being January 2, 2004) as set forth in Section 2.2.11(A) of the Land Use Code. Be sure
and return all of your red -lined plans when you re -submit The number of copies of each
document to re -submit is shown on the attached Revisions Routing Sheet.
If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project,
please feel free to call me at 221-6341.
Yours Truly,
Sfeve Olt,
City Planner

The following comments were expressed at staff review on December 31, 2003:
Engineering:
The West Horsetooth Road right-of-way (ROW) as shown on the plans does not
account for the additional 7.5' of ROW needed outside of the right -turn lane. Also, a 15'
wide utility easement is needed outside of the ultimate ROW. The applicant may

[12/30/03] Reading the conceptual review letter sent to the applicant, then reading my
conceptual review comments in the Engineering file, it appears that engineering was mis-
quoted in the letter sent to the applicant. That letter stated that: "Development of this
property will have to dedicate necessary additional street right-of-way (ROW) and
easements behind the ROW for West Horsetooth Road. There currently is 50' of right-of-
way (south of the centerline of the street) and 57.5' is ultimately required." Engineering's file
comments state that the existing ROW on Horsetooth is 50' plus 12' for the right turn lane,
and 7.5' of additional ROW is needed, and that the utility easement should be a total of 15'
beyond the new ROW. The additional 7.5' of ROW is still required, as is the 15' utility
easement behind that.

Topic: Site Plan
Number: 25 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] J.R. Wilson of Technical Services offered the following comment:
"Regarding the Site Plan, Sheet Al ..... Most of the information on this plan (as
submitted) appears to be a re -statement of the information typically on a civil
engineering plan. There are site notes, i.e., gravel landscape, concrete wheel stops,
etc.; but, there are no dimensions, no off -sets, no features are dimensioned, etc.
Please lose the "civil" data and add real Site Plan data / information.
Number: 27 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] The Site Plan includes a lot of information that is typical for a utility plan but should
not be on this plan, such as:
* flow line elevations
* rim & invert elevations
* existing and proposed utilities and lines
Number: 28 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] There is much information that must be included on this Site Plan that, to date, is
not:
* Building envelopes (dimensioned)
* Ties (scales distances) from building envelopes to at least 2 property lines
* Vicinity Map
* Is the trash enclosure on the west side of the property existing or proposed? There is
a trash enclosure shown on Phase One, for the lube shop. Will there be a trash
enclosure for the car wash in Phase Two?
* The required signature blocks must be put on the Site Plan at time of Final
Compliance,'at the latest. This PDP Site Plan should be revised to accommodate the
signature blocks. Copies of the required signature blocks are attached to this
comment letter.

[1/2/04] The actual heights of the buildings (as shown on the Elevations Plan, A2) are 24,
and 26', not 30'-0" as indicated on the Site Plan. This should be changed accordingly. Also,
please remove the reference to a Maximum Building Height of 3 Story, 40'-0". It has no
relevance.
Number: 30 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] Please change the Proposed Land Use on the Site Plan to Vehicle Minor Repair,
Servicing and Maintenance (or Auto Lube Shop and Car Wash) instead of Retail. .

[1/2/04] Under Off Street Parking it indicates that there will be 5 bicycle parking spaces.

ISSUES:
Department: Current Planning Issue Contact: Steve Olt
Topic: Building Plans
Number: 26 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] Rick Lee of the Building Department indicated that he is forwarding to the applicant
a copy of the various building codes that they will enforce. They are currently enforcing the
1998 ANSI for accessibility to the toilet rooms. Any cutting and welding during automobile
repair would place this development into a more restrictive Occupancy per the Uniform
Building Code.
Number: 38 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] There is a dark line on both the Valvoline East & West Elevations on the Elevations
Plan, A2 that in some way relates to "three bays". This is unclear, especially "since it appears
to represent a break in the building plane that is not shown on the Site Plan and that would
have an affect on an overhead door.
Number: 39 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] The Carwash East Elevation on the Elevations Plan, A2 should reflect the whole
width of the building, with the wider (westerly) portion in the background being shown with a
dashed line.
Number: 40 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] How does someone get into the central portion of the car wash building, in the
space between the auto bays? Is there a door just from the one bay on the east side of this
space, from the inside?
Topic: Landscape Plan
Number: 35 Created: 1 /2/2004
[1/2/04] The Landscape Plan shows deciduous trees & shrubs proposed for Phase Two of
the development. These will have to be specified on the Final Compliance Plan that this
phase is to be a part of.
