22. Question: Who is the management company?
Answer: Colorado Management Company, owned by Jim Loftus,
the developer for Stonebridge Garden Apartments.
23. Question: How far on Wheaton Drive are you going to
supplement the landscaping on the north side of
Wheaton?
Answer: To the north and west property line of the
Stonebridge Garden Apartments.
24. Comment: I am strongly opposed to a stoplight at Wheaton
Drive and East Harmony Road. It would be
detrimental to the Harmony Corridor Plan and your
project.
12. Question: Would this type of development be sold at some
point in time?
Answer: It is likely that a project similar to this could
be condominiumized for secondary income money.
13. Question: Will future owners be subject to covenants
developed with this project?
Answer: All individual owners, should this occur, will be
subject to the covenants of the development.
14. Comment: From a personal standpoint, I really respect what
you have done with this proposal.
15. Question: Will pets be allowed in this project?
Answer: No, pets will not be allowed.
16. Question: You will fence in the entire site initially during
construction?
Answer: Yes, and the fence will be shifted as units become
available for occupancy.
17. Question: How much will the rents be for the garages?
Answer: The garages will lease/rent for $45 per month.
18. Question: Will the apartments have storage areas?
Answer: Yes, each unit will have its own storage area.
19. Question: You do not anticipate changing the location of the
access point (entry/exit) to this development?
Answer: No, we do not. We have preliminary approval for
this location.
20. Question: Will the" shopping center access align directly
across from your access?
Answer: Yes, it is our understanding that the City will
require the two points of access to align with each
other.
21. Comment: We have offered the landscaping on the north side
of Wheaton Drive and intend to work with the
residents of Golden Meadows to work out a very good
plan. We would like this to be considered.
6. Question: Can you describe the pool and clubhouse area?
Answer: The pool, generally, is a marketing tool and does
not get as much use as it is important to market
the project. The clubhouse is 3,200 square feet in
size with a full hip roof. It will consist of the
same materials and colors as the apartment
buildings. There will be a 20' x 30' multi -purpose
area with TV's, etc. There will be restrooms,
showers, locker room, and exercise equipment. The
target market is people wanting to stay in this
area and are waiting for a home (house) in the
area. There will be a full-time manager and
secretary on -site.
7. Question: What.are the rents to be?
Answer: They will be about 85 cents per square foot of
living space. They will range from $750 to $950 per
month.
8. Question: What is the distance between this project and the
Courtney Park Apartments?
Answer: The buildings will be a minimum of 25' from the
property line, with an average of 30' to 40' from
the property line.
9. Question: Are the storm sewers adequate to take care of all
of the stormwater runoff?
Answer: Yes, our engineers have done the calculations for
this site, combined with Courtney Park, and the
drainage solutions are adequate.
10. Question: Do you have to go through the Courtney Park
property with the proposed sidewalk?
Answer: We are proposing to construct the sidewalk from our
property to Lemay Avenue, along the Harmony Road
frontage. We are working with the Courtney Park
people to accomplish this.
11. Question: What is the proposed site lighting?
Answer: There will be patio/balcony lights that will be
switched to the individual units. If the stairways
are to be roofed then the lighting will be within
the stairways. There will be 10' high residential
light poles with adequate shielding to prevent off -
site spillage.

RE: STONEBRIDGE APARTMENT COMMUNITY
The enclosed project information sheet and final site plan depicts the same
project as presented at the Preliminary Board Meeting January 24, 1994. The
land use plan is exactly the same except the building footprints are now
somewhat smaller, allowing increased open space around the buildings and
additional open space in the central pool area. The on site open space is now
just over 60% of the total land area within the street paving. The density
remains the same, totally fitting the master plan goals and P.U.D. objectives,
and the entrance driveway is located exactly where it was approved by you in
keeping with the neighborhood's desires.
All issues of the staff have been addressed except that of the Transportation
Department's request to relocate the driveway to align with Monte Carlo. This
driveway now aligns with the proposed retail center drive which is the
neighborhood's preference. We will abide by your final decision and will
relocate it as required; however, I do not understand why the same issue is
being revisited given my recollection of our very thorough discussion at the
preliminary Board meeting. Changing the entry to align with Monte Carlo will
allow the land use design to function in the same manner by simply "reversing"
the clubhouse location.
Our schedule is to begin construction early summer with completion of the
exterior this fall including all site work and landscaping. This minimizes any
disruption to our neighbors. We believe this complex will be one of Ft. Collins
best multifamily projects.

the condition is met, for purposes of determining the vesting
of rights. For purposes of calculating the running of time for
the filing of an appeal pursuant to Chapter 2, Article II,
Division 3, of the City Code, the "final decision" of the
Board shall be deemed to have been made at the time of this
conditional approval; however, in the event that a dispute is
presented to the Board for resolution regarding provisions to
be included in the development agreement, the running of time
for the filing of an appeal of such "final decision" shall be
counted from the date of the Board's decision resolving such
dispute.

March 28, 1993 P & Z Meeting
Page 6
RECOMMENDATION:
This request is in substantial conformance with the approved
Stonebridge Garden Apartments P.U.D., Preliminary. The proposed
point of access into the Stonebridge Garden Apartments is located
midway between East Harmony Road and Monte Carlo Drive. The City is
stating that the single point of access into the Stonebridge Garden
Apartments must align with the intersection of Wheaton Drive and
Monte Carlo Drive. The request does not meet All Development
Criterion A2.2.1 and A2.2.4 of the Land Development Guidance
System; therefore, staff recommends denial of the-Stonebridge
Garden Apartments P.U.D., Final - #82-93A.
In the event that the Planning and Zoning. Board approves this
request, staff is recommending the following condition of final
approval:
1. The Planning and Zoning Board approves this planned unit
development final plan upon the condition that the development
agreement, final utility plans, and final P.U.D. plans for the
planned unit development be negotiated between the developer
and City staff and executed by the developer prior to the
second monthly meeting (May 23, 1994) of the Planning and
Zoning Board following the meeting at which this planned unit
development final plan was conditionally approved; or, if not
so executed, that the developer, at said subsequent monthly
meeting, apply to the Board for an extension of time. The
Board shall not grant any such extension of time unless it
shall first find that there exists •with respect to said
planned unit development final plan certain specifictunique
and extraordinary circumstances which require the granting of
the extension in order to prevent exceptional and unique
hardship upon the owner or developer of such property and
provided that such extension can be granted without
substantial detriment to the public good.
If the staff and the developer disagree over the provisions to
be included in.the development agreement, the developer may
present such dispute to the Board for resolution if such
presentation is made at the next succeeding or second
succeeding monthly meeting of the Board. The Board may table
any such decision, until both the staff and the developer have
had reasonable time to present sufficient information to the
Board to enable it to make its decision. (If the Board elects
to table the decision, it shall also extend the term of this
condition until the date such decision is made.)
If this condition is not met within the time established
herein (or as extended,. as applicable), then the final
approval of this planned unit development shall become null
and void and of no effect. The date of final approval for this
planned unit development shall be deemed to be the date that

There will be 300 parking spaces provided, with 86 spaces being in
parking garages and 214 spaces being open surface parking. The
amount of parking being provided is considered to be adequate for
this development.
Signage:
There are two signs being proposed and they both will be located in
the median of the street at the entry to this development. One will
be an address sign, 2'-6" high by 6'-0" in length, that will be
constructed of stone veneer to match the buildings. The second will
be a Stonebridge project identification sign, approximately 10' in
height by 14' in width, that will be constructed of stone veneer
and roofing material to match the buildings. The identification
sign will have a 6/12 pitched hip roof,. also to match the
buildings.
4. Neighborhood Compatibility:
A second neighborhood information meeting was held on January 26,
1994, to discuss the Stonebridge Garden Apartments P.U.D. The
affected property owners notification list of approximately 331
names (the same list used for the first meeting) included single
family home owners, commercial and business owners, and appropriate
Homeowners Associations. There were 9 participants in attendance.
Copies of the meeting minutes and the attendance sheet are attached
to this memo.
5. Transportation:
The proposed access location into Stonebridge Garden Apartments is
on Wheaton Drive at a point that is approximately 275' north of the
intersection with East Harmony Road and 220' south of aligning with
the intersection at Monte Carlo Drive. The potential need for a
traffic signal at the intersection of East Harmony Road and Wheaton
Drive is to be determined with additional traffic studies.
Signalization will require approval of an amendment to the Harmony
Road access control plan that would involve both the City and the
Colorado Department of Transportation. The City Transportation
Division is stating that the access into the Stonebridge Garden
Apartments must align with the intersection of Wheaton Drive and
Monte Carlo Drive to enable the necessary left turn lanes, from
Wheaton Drive onto eastbound East Harmony Road and from Wheaton
Drive into the Stonebridge Garden Apartments, to be constructed if
and when a traffic signal is implemented. The proposed development
plan does not meet All Development Criterion A2.2.1 Vehicular,
Pedestrian, Bike Transportation or A2.2.4 Vehicular Circulation and
Parking of the Land Development Guidance System.

Wheaton Drive will have 2-story end sections and will be oriented
with the end sections toward the streets. Building materials will
consist of horizontal wood lap siding and stone veneer on the
exterior vertical walls, and composition shingles (to match the
Courtney Park Apartments) on the 6/12 pitched hip roofs.
There will be a 3,170 square foot clubhouse, approximately 14'-6"
high, and three detached 12-car garages, approximately 10'-6" high,
within the development. The architecture and materials of these
accessory buildings will match that of the apartment buildings.
Landscaping:
There is extensive tree plantings proposed for this development.
Deciduous canopy trees and evergreen trees, in conjunction with
earthen berms, along the East Harmony Road and Wheaton Drive street
frontages will provide ample sight and noise buffers to this multi-
family residential. development. The developer will also be
providing large numbers of deciduous canopy trees, accented with
ornamental and evergreen trees, within the site around the
buildings and parking areas. Evergreen trees and shrubs are being
proposed, to be provided by this developer, along the street
frontage on the opposite side of Wheaton Drive and adjacent to
Golden Meadows. The additional plant material will be installed in
between the existing street trees, and the existing irrigation
system will be modified as part of the landscape improvement
contract between Stonebridge and Golden. Meadows. The existing
Golden Meadows Homeowner's Association will continue to be
responsible for the maintenance of the landscaping on their side of
Wheaton Drive. Landscape construction documents will be provided to
the Planning Department for review to assure that the final
Landscape Plan conforms with the final Site Plan.
Parking:
The parking requirements for this development, based on the number
of bedrooms per dwelling units proposed, are 279 total spaces.
