RE: Coventry Subdivision, Preliminary, #80-93
Dear Jim:
On Monday, January 31, 1994, at the continued meeting of the City of Fort Collins Planning
and Zoning Board, the Board voted 5 - 0 to approve the Coventry Subdivision, Preliminary,
#80-93, subject to the following conditions:
1. The Planning Department is interested in keeping the option open of connecting Crest
Road to East Bentley Place. It is recognized, however, that final plans for stormwater detention,
erosion control, wetland protection, and a raw water irrigation pond have not been designed.
If the need for adequate stormwater detention, wetland buffer and irrigation preclude connecting
Crest Road to East Bentley Place, then such connection will not be pursued.
2. The developer is encouraged to explore providing increased separation between structures
and/or sideyard setbacks for the homes that front on Crest. Road that exceed the Zoning Code
minimum of five foot sideyard setback.
3. The developer is encouraged to explore the possibility of working with the City Parks
and Recreation Department to modify the park boundary on the east for the purpose of re-
designing the street frontage along Crest Road so that there is a less "row -like" appearance and
to promote greater compatibility with the existing homes in Brookwood Estates.
4. The developer is encouraged to continue to work with the City of Fort Collins and
Larimer County in designing a street cross-section for Crest Road that is not the full urban
standard but is slightly modified to promote compatibility with character established in
Brookwood Estates. This includes investigating a 28 foot street width (curb to curb) and,
possibly, deleting the sidewalk on the east side.
