These will be included in the final drawings when they are submitted for a building permit. 14. Existing house and associated buildings and hardscape improvements: These have been shown on the our revised submittal. 15. Comments from Engineering Department: These comments will be addressed by the civil engineer, The Engineering Company. 16. Discusses landscape recommendations that were enclosed with the drawings: We have reviewed these with the owner and have made a few corrections which show up on the landscape plan. We have added additional landscaping along the parking lot to the East as a buffer between residential and parking lot; we have left trash enclosure where it is, we do not feel moving one space with make a noticeable difference - we can put gates on trash enclosure if the City requires; we left bike rack where it was, although the bike rack was cut way down in size - lit was overly exaggerated on the previous submittal). All other items on the landscape plan will remain the same. 17. Significant Storm Drainage: This has been worked out with The Engineering Company and Glen Schlueter. This concludes our responses to your comments, if you have further questions or comments please contact me at 223-1820. Sincerely, ALLER•LINGLE ARCHITECTS P.C. Michael L. "Mick" Aller, AIA MLA/mr 6. Zoning Department - 6a (Topography Lines on the site plan): They have been removed. 6b (Two distances to two lot lines for the building envelope): This has been done. 6c (Moving the lot line on the East side of the parking lot 5 feet further east to create a landscape buffer between Tract B and the property): This has been done. 6d (Requested additional trees along Country Club Road): The fire department is against this; it is imperative that visual contact be made where the fire trucks come out of the building. Trees would distract from this line of sight. 6e (Walls signage): It will be shown on the building elevations. 7. Natural Resources Division (xeriscape approach to landscape design): After some discussion it was felt that landscaping more common to a typical residential subdivision would be better suited for this area. 8. Facilities Services - 8a (High Waterline in Tract B not shown): This is shown on the engineering drawings by The Engineering Company; it will not be shown on our drawings since we do not show topography on the site plan. 8b (Building finish floor elevation): This is shown on the civil engineering drawings by The Engineering Company. 8c (Handicapped parking space requirements - only 1 needed): We have corrected this by locating a van accessible parking space. 9. City Forester - Tim Buchanan (Request that existing trees and vegetation be shown on the site plan and the landscape plan): This has been corrected. 10. Conflict between Tract A and Tract B on our plans and the civil engineering plans: This has been corrected on both sets and coordinated. 11. Mapping Department - 11 a: Refer to 10 above. 11 b (Vacating all effected easements on the original plat of Falcon Ridge P.U.D.): This will be corrected by the civil engineer, The Engineering Company. 11 c: Will be taken care of by the civil engineer, The Engineering Company. 11 d (City Manager to sign the replat as the owner): This will be taken care of by the civil engineer, The Engineering Company. 12. (Requesting a possible sidewalk connection between the building and the residential area): The Poudre Fire Authority would like to discourage this from occurring because of the safety issues concerning children cutting through the area and the fire trucks. 13. Warning light scheme on Country Club Road: We were told by Poudre Fire Authority that the top of the hill will have a warning signal and there will also be a warning signal at Highway ,1L (ZLEQ•unCLE IQC4TECTs PC 748 WHALERS WAY • BLDG E, SUITE 200 • FORT COLLINS • COLORADO 80525 • (970) 223-1820 November 6, 1996 Mr. Steve Olt Community Planning Environmental Services City of Fort Collins P.O.
