The City Transportation Division has not completed their review of this request yet, due to the late submittal (April 15, 1993) of the traffic study. I have not yet received comments from them but it is possible that it might be necessary to connect Butch Cassidy Court to Greenbriar Circle to the east. Questions pertaining to the traffic issues should be directed to Rita Davis. She can be reached at 221-6608. 15. A copy of the Engineering Department's comments is attached to this letter. The utility plans as submitted are not adequate for a combined Preliminary 6 Final review. Staff feels that this project can move ahead as a Preliminary review only, with the Preliminary going to the Planning and Zoning Board on May 24, 1993. 16. Planning comments: a) There is no fencing indicated on the Site Plan or the Landscape Plan. Fencing is shown on the "Typical Planting Detail". Will there be perimeter fencing or fencing around the patios? If so, it should be identified. b) Will the Garden Areas have access to water connections? c) The sidewalk should be connected to the existing sidewalk on the north side of Butch Cassidy Court. d) Elevations for all four sides of the buildings is needed. The elevations must identify the proposed height of the buildings, the materials, colors, etc. e) What will be the groundcover treatment on the "back" sides of the buildings? The "Typical Planting Detail" should include labeling of the plantings and treatment.'%. (t� f) The Site Plan should identify when the phase with the clubhouse will be built. g) The materials and colors for the trash enclosure should be included on the Site Plan. Also, a detail showing materials and colors for the gazebo is needed. h) More information on the berming is needed. Where will they ba and how tall? 18" high berms will not screen the parking areas. i) The parking spaces backing into Butch Cassidy Court are not recommended. The platting of the property seems strange. Lot 1 is left with essentially no parking and no way to get to the units from the large parking area. j) The SITE must be shown and identified on the Vicinity Map. 6. Public Service Company of Colorado states that the developer's architect had indicated in telephone conversations that there would be an unobstructed 15' utility easement around the outside perimeter of this project. The Site and Landscape Plans indicate that in some cases building envelopes extend to within 10' of the property boundary and that patios extend even beyond the building envelopes. Proposed trees will also obstruct use of this space for multiple utility lines. Front building setbacks from the rear of the sidewalks fail to meet the 15' specification required to install both electric and natural gas facilities behind sidewalks as is normally done. Installation of electric and/or natural gas lines in paved areas may be a required option. Utility easements as proposed on the subdivision plat are inadequate. 7. City Light 8 Power states that the Site Plan shows the location of a street light on the north side of Butch Cassidy Court, just east of Building #6. The Landscape Plan shows a couple of street trees that appear to be too close to the light. Street trees must be a minimum of 401, horizontally, from a light pole. 8. The Water/Wastewater Department states that a utility plan must be submitted to and approved by the City. 9. The Poudre Fire Authority has the following comments: a) The Phase One parking lot does not provide 20' inside and 40' outside turning radius. b) Both sides of the Phase One parking lot, at the ends of the center parking, must be signed "No Parking - Fire Lane" with approved signs and the curbs painted red. An unobstructed 20' wide drive lane must be provided. c) The Phase One parking lot must be included in a public access easement. 10. A copy of the Stormwater Utility's comments is attached to this letter. It appears that the drainage information submitted is not sufficient for a combined Preliminary & Final review. 11. Parkland fees of $625 per dwelling unit will apply for all v residential development and be collected at the time of issuance of building permits. 12. There is an 18' drive width around the island in the cul-de- sac at the end of Butch Cassidy Court. The City standard is a c28' width in this situation. The City is discouraging the use of the center island. 13. Utility easements for this phase do not appear to be adequate, and the subdivision plat does not provide for any public 16. The O.D.P. indicates a general pattern for drainage. It appears that someone has thought it through but there is no narrative or indication of the method of conveyance (i.e., ditch, street, pipe, etc.). An overall drainage plan, reviewed and signed by an engineer, should be submitted. The plan does not need calculations unless the design engineer thinks there is reason to check flows to see if what is proposed is really feasible. Some sub -basin delineations may be needed just to be able to describe each area and how it is planned to drain. Please contact Glen Schlueter of the City Stormwater Utility with questions pertaining to storm drainage. He can be reached at 221-6589. 17. Blue Spruce Drive should be labeled on the plan. 18. Pedestrian connections should be indicated from Phase 1 to Greenbriar Circle. 19. The Solar Orientation Ordinance will apply to the Phase 2 - Single Family/Duplex portion of the development. This must be addressed with the Preliminary P.U.D. plans. 20. The Engineering Department is suggesting shifting the alignment of Sundance Circle and the intersection of Sundance Circle and Greenbriar Circle further to the south, creating more separation from Willox Lane. What is the circle on Sundance Circle? Greenbriar Village P.U.D., First Filing - Preliminary/Final y1. The plans should represent the fact that this is a P.U.D. 2. The Site Plan, and Building Envelope Plan detail, should identify that all buildings contain 4 dwelling units each. w This is unclear with the information provided. 3. Both control monuments shown on the subdivision plat must be described. All outer boundary monuments must be described. 4. The Residential Uses Density Point Chart submitted on April 5, 1993 is claiming base credit for being within 3,000 feet of a major employment center and bonus credit for a commitment to developing low income housing. What is the major employment center that is being used for credit? This will need to be substantiated in writing to the City. Your commitment to low income housing must be presented in the Planning Objectives or in some other form of writing submitted to the City and included on the Site Plan. 5. Columbine CableVision would like to work with the developers in wiring the units in a home -run system. They would also like to possibly go joint trench up to the buildings with main lines. Your contact person at CCTV is Dennis Greenwalt. 6. A legend should be added to the O.D.P. indicating, as a minimum, the significance of the arrows (presumably drainage patterns) and conceptual pedestrian connections both on- and off -site. 7. Note 3 should indicate that Any part of an exterior building wall will be located within 150 feet of an access for fire and emergency equipment. 8. Note 6 should indicate that all signs will comply to City of Fort Collins standards and will be restricted to signage as set forth by the P.U.D. plans. Any intent to change the approved signage must be submitted to the City Planning Department for review as an Administrative Change. 9. Note 7 must be eliminated from the plan. This statement is too open-ended and could potentially create future misconceptions and misunderstandings about what is allowed to occur on the property. 10. The SITE for this development proposal must be shown and identified on the Vicinity Map. 11. The Residential Uses Density Point Chart does not relate to the O.D.P. It must be attached to the Greenbriar Village P.U.D., First Filing (and subsequent filings) plan. 12. Public Service Company of Colorado has stated that dedication of adequate utility easements must be provided by individual plats (filings). 13. The developer needs to be aware of the City ordinance that requires the undergrounding of existing overhead utilities prior to issuance of building permits. In this case, the ordinance will apply to lots in the southerly part of "Phase 4 - Single Family" and lots adjacent to Redwood Street in "Phase 2 - Single Family/Duplex". It will also apply to any development along the south side of Willox Lane. Please contact Doug Martine of City Light & Power with questions pertaining to these comments. He can be reached at 221-6700. 14. The City Water/Wastewater Department has stated that a Master Utility Plan must be submitted and approved prior to the approval of construction plans for any portion of the Greenbriar Village P.U.D. Please contact Mark Taylor with questions pertaining to water and sanitary sewer services. He can be reached at 221-6681. 15. Timing for construction of Redwood Street and its relationship to the proposed phasing of this development is critical. Sufficient secondary points of emergency access for any phase is required. Please contact Warren Jones of the Poudre Fire Authority with questions pertaining to emergency access requirements. He can be reached at 221-6570. Community Planning and Environmental'Services Planning Department City of Fort Collins April 21, 1993 Ed Zdenek ZTI Group 1220 South College Avenue Fort Collins, CO. 80524 Dear Ed, Staff has reviewed the submittals for the Greenbriar Village P.U.D. - overall Development Plan and Greenbriar village P.U.D., First Filing - Preliminary/Final, and would like to offer the following comments: Greenbriar Village P.U.D. - O.D.P. 1. The Greenbriar project is being reviewed as a P.U.D. and the plans should reflect this. 2. The property is in the RP and the RMP zoning districts. The portion south of the existing Sundance Hills P.U.D., Second Filing is zoned RMP. 3. It is being recommended that the Development Phasing Plan schedule submitted as a separate document be added to the O.D.P. for Greenbriar Village P.U.D. 4. The phase lines are unclear on the O.D.P. Phase 2 is actually comprised of what area? What is the status/intent/proposed use of the parcel at the northeast corner of the O.D.P., at the intersection of Willox Lane and Redwood Street? 5. Submittal requirements for 0.D.P.Is state that the area shown on the plan must extend beyond the property lines of the proposal to include a survey of the area within 150 feet of the proposal and should include: a) Land uses, location of principal structures and major existing landscape features; b) Densities of residential uses; c) Traffic circulation system; d) Natural features of the landscape; and e) General topographical mapping at same scale as the O.D.P. 281 North College Avenue - P.O.
