HomeMy WebLinkAboutSTONEBRIDGE GARDEN APARTMENTS FINAL PUD - 82 93A - CORRESPONDENCE - RESPONSE TO STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS5. Traffic issue - see attached letter. 6. All U.S. West and Public Service concerns will be incorporated into the construction plans. 7. The street light and final landscape planting along the R.O.W. will be coordinated prior to actual tree installation. 8. There will be a 10 foot minimum separation of utility lines and electric service lines. 9. The project name of "Stonebridge Apartments" is actually very different than a Stoneridge housing project, it would seem to be no problem. Anyone living at Stoneridge in a single family residence will provide their house address in an emergency. I suspect the apartment residents will use Stonebridge as their location identification which would also include the apartment and building number, adding clarification that it is not the single family house area. 10. The pathway along Harmony Road will be installed by the Stonebridge developer and subsequently maintained by the apartment management company for each segment on each site. 1 1 . Sidewalk construction geometrics will be provided on construction plans prior to building permitting. 12. All off site landscaping will be coordinated to fit the existing elements and with the neighborhood Home Owners Association at time of installation. 13. The trash enclosures are constructed of solid frame walls with siding and masonry corner posts to match the building veneer. Three are attached elements of the garages, with only one being free standing. The fence enclosure to the side of the clubhouse will be the same detail. 14. The landscaping will be installed prior to certificate of occupancy on any building. The construction schedule will be to commence construction in early summer so the site work including all landscaping can be complete in the fall of 1994. Any incomplete elements will be financially assured per city requirements. This has been a truly well processed land plan resulting in an excellent multifamily P.U.D. I appreciate all your assistance on this exciting multifamily project; and look forward to its completion later this year. olt2.037 JUNGE / REICH / ASSOCIATES ARCHITECTURE & PLANNING PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION March 7, 1994 Steve Olt City of Ft. Collins 281 N. College Ft. Collins, CO 80502 RE: STONEBRIDGE FINAL SITE PLAN Enclosed is the final site plan with three minor modifications which enhance the project's function and end appearance when developed. They include; 1) each building footprint being "shortened" from 6 to 10 feet due to finalizing of the unit floor plans. This also allows additional open space to be provided around the central pool and play area, 2) the two story ends of the buildings are now reduced 6 feet each. This increases the open space between structures and reduces the bulk of the building elevations fronting onto the exterior streets; and 3) the parking layout and the southeast garage have been positioned slightly differently to add 6 automobile spaces while adding some landscape area at the entry driveway and reducing conflict of traffic movement within the complex. Parking now exceeds the minimum required by 21 spaces including the 5 guest spaces located in front of the clubhouse. The setbacks to the perimeter have remained exactly the same and the open space has remained the same, or in fact, slightly greater. The architectural character, clubhouse, and other amenities remain the same; as does landscaping. We are very pleased with the final plan and hope that the ongoing traffic problem raised by the city transportation director becomes a "non issue" prior to the 28th of March meeting. Specific response to the final comments are the following: 1 . The signature "blocks" are now included on the P.U.D. 2. The buildings are all fire sprinklered per residential standard 13R including the garages within the structures. In addition, the 27 unit buildings - "E" and "F" have a ground floor walk through to the rear of the structures at the center of the building. 3. Appropriate "no parking" signs and "red" painted curbs will be installed adjacent to fire hydrant locations and garage entrances. 4. The entrance drive is now shown 20'-0" wide and more nearly perpendicular to Wheaton Drive. The location indicated at 270 feet distance from the Harmony Road property line has been coordinated with the shopping center developer. oh2.037 4141 ARAPAHOE AVENUE, SUITE 100 BOULDER, COLORADO 80303 303 444.2987 FAX 303 444.5085
