Comment: We tend to be microscopic with our views and do not look at the "global" considerations for a larger area. 16. Comment: This is an excellent conceptual plan. Go for the bigger lots if you can get them. 17. Comment: Our streets are not supported by the City and we are concerned about additional traffic being directed through The Ridge. 18. Question: We have a concern about the construction traffic for this development. Where will it occur? We do not want it coming through The Ridge. Answer: There should be no need for the construction traffic to go through the Ridge and that kind of traffic can be controlled. 19. Comment: I am concerned about the closeness of the proposed homes at the southwest corner of your development to our home in the Ridge. 20. Question: How will you deliver my water to me on the Gress property from the Pleasant Valley & Lake Canal? Answer: That will be determined with the grading and drainage plans for this development. 21. Question: What will the setbacks for the homes on the east side, next to the Gress property, and what kind of buffering and fencing will be done along the townhomes? We would like this to be considered. Answer: As a minimum I am subject to the standard building setbacks as specified in the City Code and I am not 22. Question: Will there be other builders involved with this development or will you be doing all the building? You are sensitive to the surroundings but all builders might not be. Answer: There will be other builders involved in the actual construction of the homes. This development will have strict architectural controls that will be maintained. 23. Question: Will you have any fencing guidelines for your development along the Ridge? Answer: We will develop specific fencing guidelines with our covenants. 24. Comment: Shrubbery will help in tandem with the fences. 5. Question: What is the proposed rear building setback for the townhomes? Answer: A minimum of 151. 6. Question: Where is parking for the townhomes planned? Answer: In the garages and driveways for the units. 7. Comment: The townhomes will be fee simple units and are not intended to be rentals. The prices of the homes will Probably preclude rentals. 8. Question: When the City widens Harmony Road will it encroach into the Ridge's open space? Answer: Yes, it probably will encroach somewhat. 9. Question: Will there be sidewalks on the south side of Harmony Road? Answer: Yes, there will be. 10. Comment: Several of the existing trees on this property create real visual problems for traffic and should be trimmed or removed. 11. Comment: There used to be 2 right -turn (north) lanes from the west -bound lanes on Harmony Road, east of the intersection. This creates a real jam at the intersection. 12. Question: Will there be street lights in this development and how close will they be? Also, the yellow style lighting (high pressure sodium) is much more desirable than white lighting. Answer: There will be City street lights in this development. The height and spacing is determined by the required foot candles for the streets. 13. Comment: I would like your CC & R's to be more in keeping with the Ridge's. 14. Question: Would you make this development fully single family lots if the City would allow and approve this concept? Answer: I have no objection to all single family homes if the City doesn't have concerns about the density of the project. CommurL..yr Planning and Environmental .__vices Planning Department Neighborhood Information Meeting Minutes for THE RICHARDSON FARM PROPERTY Date: January 27, 1994 Applicant: Mark Linder Linder Real Estate 3500 J.F.K. Parkway Fort Collins, CO. 80525 City Planner: Steve Olt The potential applicant, Mark Linder, has expressed an interest in developing a mixed unit type residential project on vacant land south and west of the intersection of South Shields Street and West Harmony Road, adjacent to the Gress property. The purpose of this meeting was to introduce Mr. Linder to the affected property owners and other potentially affected interests in attendance and enable them to ask questions about, express their concerns about, or express their support for the development proposal. The following questions, concerns, and responses were expressed at the meeting: 1. Comment: The proposed lots are on the average of 10,000 to 12,000 square feet in size. There could be much smaller lots on the east side of the project. 2. Comment: My plan at this time is not to connect a street through this property to the Ridge development. The City will determine, however, if a connection of this nature must be made. 3. Comment: My anticipated timetable is as follows: * Submit preliminary plans in March for the April Planning and Zoning Board hearing. * Possibly starting the first phase in September, 1994. * Anticipate 1 to 1-1/2 year build out for the single family homes. 4. Comment: The townhomes will be similar to the existing Sundering Townhomes on South Shields Street adjacent to Hill Pond. 281 North College Avenue • P.O.
