HomeMy WebLinkAboutFORT COLLINS BINGO MINOR SUBDIVISION - 38 93 - CORRESPONDENCE - CORRESPONDENCE-CONCEPTUAL REVIEW14. If the property to the north of the existing building is platted, you will need to dedicate right-of-way for College Avenue and any utility easement that may be required. 15. Driveway width must be a minimum of 35' wide and meet State requirements for turning radii. 16. For any new construction of buildings, you should be aware that the property is located in the Dry Creek flood plain. Finished grade of any building must be 18" above the 100 year flood elevation. Flood Insurance will be required for new construction. 6. A Traffic Impact Study will be required to be completed by a professional transportation engineer. The kind of information that the City Transportation Department would be looking for includes: numbers of vehicle trips generated by the use, hours of operation, peak traffic times, the level of service on College Avenue that would result from the increase in traffic as a result of this use, and information about the operation of the signalized intersections to the north and south of this property. Please see attachment for a list of transportation engineers. 7. A new State Highway Access permit will be required. Please contact Kerrie Ashbeck about obtaining the necessary forms. The City will submit this application. It generally takes 6 to 8 weeks to get a decision from the State Department of Transportation. 8. The change of occupancy and change of use of an existing building triggers application of all current building and fire code requirements. Existing fire flow in the area will be tested by the Poudre Fire Authority. The parking lot will have to be designed to conform to Fire Access requirements for turning radii. 9. Installation of an automatic fire sprinkler system will address many fire code requirements. Installation of a sprinkler system will however, require a State Highway Utility Permit in order to tap the 8" main in College Avenue. A Utility Permit can take as long as 3 months to be approved. 10. Please contact Sharon Getz at Building Inspection (221-6760) for specific information about Building Code requirements. 11. The property is located in the Dry Creek Basin. Stormwater Development Fees are $4043/acre prorated for any increase in impervious (hard) surface. 12. There is an on -site detention requirement in this Drainage Basin. Off -site drainage easements will have to be obtained from the property owners to the east who will have to accept the increased flows. There are other properties developing in the area which have the same requirements and you may benefit from contacting them to see if you can coordinate the location of drainage easements for the entire area. The firm of Simon and Associates in Fort Collins is doing some of the work. 13. A standard drainage and grading plan and drainage report will be required at the time of submittal of your plat and site/landscape plans. An erosion control plan for the construction phase, should also be placed on the drainage plans. You can also add the construction/utility detail for the water service connection to the existing 8" main in College, to the plans. This document will be used to apply for the State Highway Utility Permit. CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS MEETING DATE: February 22, 1993 ITEM: Bingo Parlor at 900 N. College Ave. APPLICANT: John Griffis 145 W. Swallow Road Bldg. 1-A Fort.Collins, CO 80525 LAND USE DATA: This is a proposal for a 13,150 square foot Bingo Parlor (assembly use) for approximately 150 people in an existing building. Additional parking will be provided in the back of the adjacent lot to the north. COMMENTS: 1. If you do not need to upgrade your electrical power or panel sizes then Light and Power does not have comments. Parking lot lighting will require a C-1 form and development charges will apply. Please contact Light and Power at 221-6700 fore flood lighting requirements. 2. The property is currently unplatted. You will be required to plat the property, including the property to the north if you use it for parking. The plat could be processed as a Minor Subdivision, reviewed by the Planning Director (see attached information). Ideally, the two lots should both be platted with the plat and access easements dedicated on the plat for the entrance drive. If the entrance drive is split between property lines, both properties 'benefit from an access easement. A legal lot has at least 20' of frontage on a public dedicated right-of-way. 3. The site and landscape plan will have to meet the Parking Lot Requirements, including a 5' landscaped buffer along lot lines, except where a drive is shared with an adjacent property. In addition, there is a requirement for a minimum of 6% of the parking and drive aisle area to be landscaped as you have shown on your conceptual plan. 4. Parking requirements for an assembly use are 1 parking space per 5 seats. Bike parking and handicapped parking will also be required. 5. If the existing water and sewer services are adequate, the Water and Wastewater Utility does not have additional comments. When you plat the property, Water and Wastewater Utility will require dedicated easements for two existing mains which cross the property.
