HomeMy WebLinkAboutCOVENTRY SUBDIVISION FILING ONE FINAL - 80 93A - CORRESPONDENCE - STAFF'S PROJECT COMMENTSB. The submittal documents are missing the erosion control
section. Erosion control performance standards and
effectiveness calculations need to be provided with the
Final Report.
C. The floodplain encroaches onto Lot 89. This lot,
therefore, should be deleted. Further, elimination of
this lot will help protect the water quality of Mail
Creek. In its place, an eight foot wide, concrete
pedestrian connection should be made from the sidewalk on
Crest Road leading into the park.
8. It is anticipated that extensive discussions will have to
occur with Mr. Bouchard, the downstream property owner, in
order to keep him informed of the drainage plans for the area.
9. The Department of Natural Resources advises that Smooth Brome
or Crested Wheatgrass not be used to re -seed disturbed areas.
It is preferred that native grasses be used such as Western
Wheatgrass. Other sterile. non-native grasses may be used
also.
10. The landscape plan should indicate existing trees on the site,
and which are to be removed.
11. The status of the street connection from East Bentley Place to
Crest Road must be addressed. A meeting to discuss this issue
with the affected parties has been scheduled.
This concludes Staff comments at this time. In order to remain on
schedule for the April 25, 1994 Planning and Zoning Board meeting,
please note the following deadlines:
Plan revisions (three prints) are due April 7, 1994.
P.M.T.'s, 10 prints, colored renderings, are due April 18, 1994.
As always, please contact the Planning Department if there are any
questions or concerns about these comments.
Sincerely:
Ted Shepard
Senior Planner

6. The following comments apply to -the plat document:
A. Please provide an ownership signature block, with
notarial block. (Be sure the notarial block includes
lines for the notary's address.)
B. The dedication statement does not follow our format.
C. The 30 feet of additional right-of-way for Harmony Road
should be labeled as such.
D. There is a 20 'foot U.E. and L.E. in the lots along
Harmony Road. What is an L.E.?
E. Many of the easements, both existing and to be dedicated
with this plat, are missing bearings and distances.
F. Please show the recording number where Hinsdale Drive was .
dedicated.
G. The centerline of Harmony Road east of the North 1/4
corner of Section 2 should be labeled as the North Line
of N.E. 1/4 with proper control shown.
H. The chord bearing and distances should be provided for
curves.
I. The "second" part of the legal does not close.
J. Please change "City Engineer" to "Director of
Engineering."
K. Please add acreages to the legal description.
L. A "County Clerks Certificate" is not needed.
M. Do the front lot utility easements along Crest Road need
to be adjusted to allow for the landscaped areas and
looping access drives? Should these access drives be
dedicated as access easements?
7. The City's Stormwater Utility has provided comments to the
consulting engineer under separate cover. There are three
major comments that are summarized here:
A. The Mail Creek Tributary Floodplain Study is being
revised. As discussed, the timing of this study is such
that a portion of Coventry cannot be designed until there
is further documentation. It is our understanding that
this will cause the project to be phased, with Phase One
being the area south of the Mail Creek study area.

Dear Jim:
Staff has reviewed the request for Coventry Subdivision, Final, and
offers the following comments:
1. The Soils Report recommends subdrains where basement
construction is within three feet of bedrock/groundwater. If
a subdrain system is installed in the public right-of-way, it
must be designed to City guidelines and be shown on utility
plans, and accompanied by a hydrologic study:
2. The design for widening of Harmony Road was submitted. The
widening of Harmony Road.is considered part of this project.
3. The Public Service Company has an existing 1 1/4 inch diameter
plastic gas main 14 feet west of the east right-of-way line of
Crest Road. Since this line will be under asphalt, any taps
.needed to serve the homes along Crest Road should be made
before further street improvements are done.
4. Public Service Company has an existing three inch diameter
plastic gas main along the west side of Hinsdale Drive that is
four feet west of the west right-of-way line.
5. The City of Fort Collins Light and Power is concerned about a
potential conflict between electrical and stormwater
facilities. The proposed storm sewer lines are shown at the
edge of the asphalt. The electrical system is installed
approximately 3 1/2 feet behind the attached sidewalks and
approximately 3 1/2 feet behind the curb for detached
sidewalks. Vaults and streetlights and installed directly
behind the curb or sidewalk.
Up to 10 feet of horizontal clearance is normally required
between the electric system and the storm sewer. The
clearance will vary based on the depth of the storm sewer.
There should be coordination between Light and Power and the
Stormwater Utility for acceptable clearance in this area.
