HomeMy WebLinkAboutFTC WALMART MAGNOLIA WTE VERIZON - BDR190004 - SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS - ROUND 2 - RESPONSE TO STAFF REVIEW COMMENTSexisting storm sewer line. The 10 ft utility easement is directly over a public storm sewer line. 10 feet of separation is required for all of these easements from these storm sewers. Previously depicted access & utility easement has been revised to be access only. During the 1 st staff review meeting, this revision sounded like it would alleviate concerns for that particular easement. The other utility only easement has been revised based on comments from Forestry and to avoid the known and plotted storm sewer manholes in the landscaped area and driveway just north of the proposed equipment. Instead of running along the path of these two manholes, Verizon will go further east along existing driveway than turn south and then turn west back towards the building. We hope this resolves the concern.

Light and Power is in the process to request a change in code to disallow master metering for commercial services. Please consider a back up plan for installing a separate City of Fort Collins owned meter if these code changes take place before your project happens. Architect has discussed the project with Light & Power directly to address questions and comments. Upon completion of the discussions, Light & Power agreed that if no additional service is required than no additional utility easements will be required.

Based upon the submitted Planning Materials it has been determined that this project; will disturb less than 10,000 sq. ft., is not proposed to be in a sensitive area, has no steep slopes (greater than 31-1:1 V) within or adjacent to the project, and is not part of a larger common development that will or is under construction. Therefore, no Erosion Control Material submittal is needed. If this project substantially changes in size or design where the above criteria now apply, erosion control materials should be submitted. Though the project at this time requires no erosion control material submittal, the project still must be swept and maintained to prevent dirt, saw cuttings, concrete wash, trash & debris, landscape materials and other pollutants from the potential of leaving the site and entering the storm sewer at all times during the project in accordance with City Code 26-498. If complaint driven or site observation of the project seems not to prevent the pollutant discharge the City may require the project to install erosion and sediment control measures. Nearby inlets that may be impacted by the pollutants, in particular dirt, should be protected as a good preventative practice and individual lots should be protected from material escaping onto the sidewalk. If at building permit issuance any issues arise please email erosion@fcqov.com to help facilitate getting these permits signed off.

Landscape Plans Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 04/01/2019 Comment Originated: 03/27/2019 03/27/2019: FOR APPROVAL: There are existing trees on site. Utility easements and equipment installation are proposed in close proximity to multiple trees on the property. What are the anticipated impacts to the trees? Please schedule an onsite visit with City Forestry to obtain inventory and mitigation information. Existing significant trees should be retained to the extent reasonably feasible. The site visit should occur prior to the next round of review. Applicant met with Forestry to discuss proposed fiber route and potential impacts. As a result of that meeting, we have revised the proposed fiber to avoid certain trees, center between trees as much as possible, and install using boring. The final location is in a gap between existing trees. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 03/27/2019 03/27/2019: FOR APPROVAL: Will the installation of equipment require any additional clearance, and if so, will pruning be required? Additionally, please clarify whether any excavation is planned within the drip line of the trees. Pruning is not required at the time of installation. However, pruning may be required in the future as the tree continues to grow. Per our site visit, the proposed fiber line once adjusted to be centered between trees will not be within the drip line of the trees. 3 03/19/2019 FOR APPROVAL: Please add the following note to the Site Plan, "No wireless telecommunication facility or equipment owner or lessee or employee thereof shall act to exclude or attempt to exclude any other wireless telecommunication provider from using the same building, structure or location. Wireless telecommunication facility or equipment owners or lessees or employees thereof, and applicants for the approval of plans for the installation of such facilities or equipment, shall cooperate in good faith to achieve co -location of wireless telecommunication facilities and equipment. Any application for the approval of a plan for the installation of wireless telecommunication facilities or equipment shall include documentation of the applicant's good faith efforts toward such cooperation."

Are these public easements (being dedicated to the City of Fort Collins)? If these are public easements, then they need to follow the City's procedure for dedication by separate document located at this link: https://www.fcqov.com/engineering/devrev.php 2. Easements can't be dedicated through a plan set, they need to be dedicated by separate document or by platting. If these are private easements, please label them on the plan set as who is dedicating the easement and who is receiving the easement, for example "Access easement - property owner to Verizon". These will not be public easements. They have been labeled to show they will be from property owner to Verizon Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 04/02/2019 04/02/2019: FOR APPROVAL: To help eliminate some of the confusion regarding the easements on the plan set. Please add additional information to the easement description that says who the easement is being dedicated too and who it is from, for example, Access Easement - Property Owner to Verizon. If an easement already exists, a reception number under the easement label would be helpful also. For example, "Utility, Access and Shared Parking Easement - Reception Number 20120061363". Sheet Z-1 now has all existing easements labeled. Proposed easements show they are from property owner to Verizon. Comment Number: 3 Comment Originated: 04/02/2019 04/02/2019: FOR APPROVAL: For clarity, please label the grayed -out areas shown on the site plans. It is unclear what they are representing. Sheet Z-1 now has all existing easements labeled.

The setback distance to the security camera is understood. Would further to the west above the wall mounted equipment be possible (see redlines on sheet Z-4). Normally, Verizon would be willing to make this change. However, at the proposed height and current location, the antenna will have some line of sight interference with the existing tree. Relocating the antenna further west will only exacerbate the issue since the antenna would be immediately south of the existing tree. The one and only place the antenna can be located is where it is currently located. We hope that painting to match the building wall and being located on the backside of the building by the loading area is limiting the visual impact of the proposed antenna in a way that we can compromise on leaving the antenna where it is.
