development agreement. It only meant that we would have to read
the entire agreement since it did not come from our base agreement:
I also mentioned that drafting the development agreement at that
time was premature. We would draft the agreement when the utility
plans were nearing completion. I said I would keep the draft
agreement that she prepared and use it as a guide for what the
Developer wanted in the agreement.
I did not read Lucia's draft agreement until last week. I believe
that Love and Associates may have been using that draft as their
instructions and the City had not agreed to it.
If you have any questions please let me know.
CITY OF FORT COLLINS
MEMORANDUM
TO: Bob Blanchard
FROM: Mike Herzig Al f ///t/_-S
RE: Waterglen P.U.D. -
O�Ei�o
The following is a response to the portion of the memo sent to you
by Eldon Ward regarding additional comments for the Waterglen
P.U.D. This response addresses the Engineering Department comments
referred to in the memo. The following is the comment as stated in
the memo followed by my response.
COMMENT:
"Engineering in now requiring improvements to Vine Drive adjacent
to Waterglen that are contrary to the direction Love was given by
City staff last year; and contrary to the Staff's position on
street oversizing.
* It is unfair to change requirements at this late date."
RESPONSE:
We do not believe that the requirements are any different t n were
given at any time on this project or any other projec 'he street-
/ mprovements to V ni a Drive along the frontage o e Waterglen site
% /must be constructed with curb, cutter, sidewalk and pavement in
o ac r_dance with the City arterial street standards. The'6eveloper
shall be respon ible for-Tie-whoi"e mptovemerit of"£he local street
portion and the oversized portion in accordance with the street
oversizing policy of the City to provide enough street surface to
stripe the lanes necessary to replace the existing lanes and the
additional lanes necessary for this development. Vine Drive must
be designed in accordance with City standards and reconstructed
(the existing pavement is not in good enough condition to overlay).
The Developer is not eligible for street oversizing reimbursement.
The only variation from the City standard requirements was for the
off site improvements to Vine Drive. The Developer was granted an
option to overlay the existing Vine Drive (approximately 2.5 miles
to the west to Lemay) in lieu of having to reconstruct the street
to City standards. The Developer would not be eligible for
reimbursements for the offsite improvement.
In the last meeting I had with Love and Associates, Nancy Love kept
mentioning a development agreement from which she got her direction
for what to design. I could not recall any agreement. However, I
just found a draft agreement in my file attached to a letter from
Lucia Liley dated May, 1995. I received that letter and responded
by phone to Lucia that it did not help me for her to draft the
