HomeMy WebLinkAboutOAKWOOD SCHOOL NCL SITE PLAN REVIEW - 13 93 - CORRESPONDENCE - CORRESPONDENCE-CONCEPTUAL REVIEW14. A neighborhood meeting will be required before submittal.
Please refer to the attached information sheet on Neighborhood
Meetings.
5. Parks and Recreation suggest that you coordinate your use of
City Park, with other schools and daycare centers in the
area.
6. If you propose a commercial kitchen with fryers, a grill, etc.
you will be required to install a grease trap.
7. The property is in the Old Town Basin for stormwater.
Currently, there are no development fees for this basin. If
you are proposing to add any paved surfaces, including the
paving of the alley if you use it for access, you will be
required to submit a grading and drainage plan prepared by a
licensed engineer. You should also document on the site plan
and include a letter in your submittal addressing the fact
that you are/are not adding additional impervious surface and
that you are/are not changing the.drainage flow patterns on
the site.
8. Engineering will require that the alley be paved where you
would be taking access, to the street. We can show you an
example of the design that will be required to be submitted by
an engineer. You may be able to convince your neighbors to
pontribute to the cost of the paving, or the City will agree
to write up a repay agreement, and if the other properties re-
develop, there would be a possibility of getting some of the
cost back.
9. You will be required to repair any damaged curb, gutter, or
sidewalks and construct handicapped ramps at the intersection,
if they are not already in place.
10. A traffic impact report should be submitted with your site
plan. The report should document such things as: hours of
operation, time of day when students arrive and leave, number
of students and number of anticipated trips to and from the
school at various times, access to the school, location of
drop off points, parking requirements, bike parking, etc.
11. The driveway should be signed as one-way.
12. Poudre Fire Authority comments are similar to those of the
Building Department's and are related to requirements in the
building code. You should verify that there is a fire hydrant
within 400' of the property. If there is not one, a fire
hydrant will have to be installed. If the kitchen is upgraded
to a commercial kitchen, grease hoods and ducts, would be
required to be installed.
13. Fire sprinkler systems are not required, but there is a 5,000
square foot maximum area requirement for interior spaces that
are not "contained" in terms of fire protection. Please
contact Warren Jones at 221-6570 for more information.

LAND USE DATA: This is'a proposal to convert an existing church to
a private school for approximately 60 to 90 elementary school
students. The property is located at 1401 W. Mountain Avenue.
COMMENTS:
1. There is existing.. overhead single phase electric power
available. If you will be making any changes to the load or
require an upgrade to the meter, power will have to be placed
underground and Light and Power development charges would
apply. There is no 3-phase power in the area.
2. The property is located in the NCL, Neighborhood Conservation -
Low Density Residential Zoning District and is located within
the area designated as Neighborhood Conservation in the City's
adopted Westside Plan. I have enclosed relevant portions of
these planning documents for your information. Planning would
be reviewing this. proposal to see how it conforms to the
policies of the neighborhood plan.
3. If you propose to submit this project as an NCL Site Plan for
review by the.Planning and Zoning Board, please keep in mind
that while the use is permitted, the building and lot must
conform to current codes. This would include all current
setbacks, including side setbacks (51), corner side setbacks
(151), and front setbacks (151) as measured from the property
line, not the ROW line. If these setbacks can not be
achieved, you have the option of requesting variances from the
Zoning Board of Appeals. You also have the option of
submitting this request as a Planned Unit Development (PUD) to
be reviewed against the criteria of the Land Development
Guidance System. In this case, setback variances are included
in the PUD review.
4. The change of use will trigger the need for a building permit.
A certificate of occupancy would have to be issued for the new
use. The normal building permit procedure should be followed,
including submittal of 3 sets of building plans to the
building department. The new use will be considered to be a
new building and will have to conform to current code
requirements. Please consult with Sharon Getz at the Building
Department (221-6760) for more information.
