This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request. Please be aware of the following dates and deadlines to assure your ability to stay on schedule for the January. 24, 1993 Planning and Zoning Board hearing: ****************************************************************** Plan revisions are due January 5, 1994. Please contact me for the number of folded revisions required for each document. PMTes, renderings, and 8 folded copies of final revisions (for the Planning and Zoning Board packets) are due January 18, 1994. Final documents (including the signed development agreement, applicable mylars and utility plans) are due January 21, 1994. ****************************************************************** However, at this time the submittal information received by the City does not appear to be adequate for this request to be heard by the Board on January 24th. I will be out of my office until December 30, 1993. Please contact Joe Frank, the planner in charge of the Development Review Division, at 221-6750 if you have questions or concerns related to these comments and the potential delay for the project. S' erely,� S eve Olt Project Planner xc: Ron Phillips, Planning Director 1 Joe Frank, Assistant Planning Director Kerrie Ashbeck Stormwater Utility Transportation ✓Jim Loftus Stewart & Associates ,✓ Linda Ripley file/Project Planner i d. Approved "No Parking - Fire Lane" signs must be posted on opposing garages and at the ends of parking islands. Curbs in these areas must be painted red. 8. The "Overall Development Plan" that was submitted to give the relationship of this site to the surrounding area is very helpful. It should be pointed out, however, that the use and locational information shown on the south side of East Harmony Road is incorrect. PACE Warehouse, Steele's Market, and First Bank are all in the Harmony Market P.U.D., which is on the west side of South Lemay Avenue. The Real Estate Office and Key Bank are located at the southeast corner of East Harmony Road and South Lemay Avenue, in the Block One of Oakridge P.U.D. 9. The Technical Site Plan should include Preliminary in the title. 10. Is there to be an on -site office with this development and where will it be located? il. There does not appear to be a conveniently located trash receptacle/enclosure for the pool and cabanna area. 12. Are any of the proposed garages designed to meet, the handicapped accessible requirements? Also, there are no standard handicapped parking spaces and ramps shown on the Site Plan. 13. The Poudre Fire Authority has concerns about the function of the proposed bridges over the water feature.at the entry to the development. How steep will the slopes be on these bridges? 14. One major discrepancy between the Drainage Plan and the Landscape Plan is whether there will be.a ditch and existing concrete pan or significant berming along the East Harmony Road frontage. 15. A planting island should be included, if possible, between the 12 auto garage and the end island just north of Building D. This would break up the paving mass and give good separation between facing parked autos. 16. The developer is committing, in the Planning Objective document, to the construction of the sidewalk along the .north side of East Harmony Road from his property to South Lemay Avenue. The means and timing for this construction will have to clearly specified in the Development Agreement. 17. It is possible that the project could receive bonus points on the Residential Uses Density Chart in the Land Development Guidance System for 'o'- neighborhood public transit facilities (the off -site sidewalk), 't'- a portion of the on- i 6. 7. The Engineering Department's comments are as follows: a. The Final Subdivision Plat will need to describe the building envelopes in sufficient detail to enable them to be laid out in the field. b. Relative to the Utility/Grading Plan: - Is the sanitary sewer existing in Monte Carlo Drive? Details of the interior streets (horizontal layout, structure, etc.) will be needed with the Final P.U.D. The detail/design of the proposed storm pipe and the 8' detached sidewalk along Harmony Road is needed. C. The Site Plan is missing the sidewalk geometrics and the details of the parking layout are incomplete. The brick paver crosswalk shown at the entry from Wheaton Drive is not allowed in the street right-of-way. The private drive entrance must be concrete from the street to the property line. d. The Transportation Division is reviewing the striping plan recommended in the traffic impact analysis to determine if it is acceptable. e. A soils report will be required with the Final P.U.D. Kerrie Ashbeck is your contact person if you have engineering - related questions. She can be reached at 221-6750. The comments received from the Poudre Fire Authority are as follows: a. The submittal documents indicate that all 2- and 3-story buildings will be provided with automatic fire sprinkler systems. All equivalencies contained in the Fire and Building 'Code may be applied. b. The fire sprinkler service lines must be shown on the utility plans and be in accordance with City Water Department design specifications. C. All turning radius within the parking lots must be a minimum of 20' inside and 40' outside. The internal traffic island shown just west of the proposed clubhouse appears to constrict turning movements for fire apparatus. PFA recommends against this use.

Planning Department December 21, 1993 James Junge Junge/Reich/Associates 4141 Arapahoe Avenue Boulder CO. 80303 Dear Jim, Staff has reviewed your documents for the STONEBRIDGE GARDEN APARTMENTS, Phase 2 of the Golden West P.U.D. - Preliminary that were submitted on December 6, 1993, and would like to offer the following comments: 1. The documentation received for the storm drainage considerations related to this site is not sufficient for the Stormwater Utility to continue their review at this time. It is being recommended that this request be continued to. the February 28th Planning and Zoning Board hearing date to allow time for your engineering consultants to provide the required .storm drainage information for review by the City. A copy of the comments received from the Stormwater Utility is attached to this letter. All specific storm drainage questions should be directed to Glen Schlueter. He can be reached at 221-6589. 2. The Columbine CableVision Television Company has stated that they would like to see the apartments wired in a "home run" system. Also, they would like to work with the developer with regard to a joint trench with the telephone system. 3. A copy of the comments from U.S. West is attached to this letter. ' 4. The Public Service Company has reviewed this development request and has no problems or concerns at this time. 5. The City Light i Power Department has stated that they think a utility coordination meeting would be beneficial to discuss the placement of utilities that would be adequate for all utility services involved. There may be some tight spots in the development due to the separation requirements. Kevin Westhuis is your contact person if you have questions about electric service.
