HomeMy WebLinkAboutHARMONY & I-25 NORTH - PDP - PDP140022 - SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS - ROUND 1 - LANDSCAPE PLANOUR DESIGN APPROACH IS SIMPLE - TO CREATE A COMPELLING SPACE PROMOTING MERCANTILE AND SHOPPER INTERESTS THROUGH A SENSE OF PLACE. HARMONY AT I-25 WILL INVITE THE CONSUMER WITH SHADE, TEXTURE, COLOR AND ECHO THE RIVER ENVIRONMENT WHILE REMAINING CONSISTENT WITH THE FORT COLLINS, HARMONY CORRIDOR PLAN. THE DRIVING GOALS ARE FOR FAMILIES, CLIENTS AND TENANTS TO HAVE RESPITE FROM THE WESTERN AFTERNOON SUNLIGHT, SOFTENING OF SIDEWALKS AND BUILDINGS AND PROVIDE WINTER INTEREST WITH SOLAR GAIN TO STIMULATE YEAR ROUND USAGE. TO THIS END, THE PROPOSED PANTING PALETTE IS A DIVERSE CROSS SECTION OF DROUGHT TOLERANT AND RIPARIAN AREA PLANTS. TREES WILL BE A MIX OF SHADE BUR OAK, HACKBERRY, SENSATION BOXELDER AND HONEYLOCUST. SMALLER, ORNAMENTAL TREES WILL CONSIST OF PINK AND WHITE BLOOMING CRABAPPLES, TOBA HAWTHORNS AND CLEVELAND SELECT PEARS. RIVER PLANT DIVERSITY IS PRIMARILY LOCATED IN THE REQUIRED FLOODWAY PLAIN AND WILL GIVE A MORE NATIVE FEEL THROUGH THE USE OF LANCELEAF, PLAINS COTTONWOODS, AUSTRIAN PINE, DWARF ARCTIC WILLOW AND NATIVE GRASS SEEDING. THIS NATIVE AREA WILL TRANSITION INTO MORE DEVELOPED PLANTINGS AS THEY MOVE INTO THE DEVELOPMENT INTERIOR. SOFTENING OF HARDSCAPE ELEMENTS WILL BE ACHIEVED WITH A MIX OF SHRUBS, PERENNIALS AND GRASSES. SHRUB SELECTIONS WILL BE SERVICEBERRY, COLUMNAR BUCKTHORN, ALPINE CURRANT, BROOM, BURNING BUSH, NATIVE NINEBARK AND BUTTERFLY BUSHES. GRASSES, SUCH AS INDIAN GRASS, TUFTED HAIR GRASS AND BLUE FESCUE WILL ADD MOVEMENT AND WINTER TEXTURE. GRASSES WILL ALSO BE MASSED TO ECHO THE FLOOD PLAIN AND RIPARIAN AREAS. PERENNIALS, INCLUDING GAILLARDIA, BLACK EYED SUSAN'S, BLOODY CRANESBILL, SAGE, SNOW-IN-SUMMER AND LAMB'S EAR, WILL FULFILL THE NEED FOR SPRING, SUMMER AND FALL COLOR. THIS PROJECT DOES PRESENT SOME CHALLENGING OPPORTUNITIES. WHILE PLANTINGS WILL BE NATIVE IN THE FLOODWAY; WE WILL TRANSITION FROM A NATIVE, RIPARIAN FEEL TO A STRONGER PLANTING STRUCTURE WITHIN THE PROPERTY INTERIOR. WE ARE KEENLY AWARE OF BALANCING NATIVE HABITAT AND THE IMPORTANCE OF VISIBILITY FROM HARMONY AS A WAY TO INVITE PEOPLE INTO THE SHOPPING AREA. FINALLY, THIS SPACE IS A GATEWAY INTO FORT COLLINS AND HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE AN IMPACT BEYOND A VISIT TO HARMONY AT I-25. THIS PROJECT WILL PROVIDE THAT IMPACT.

SEE PLANT PROTECTION NOTES THIS SHEET. CONSTRUCTION BARRIER FENCING NTS 4 TREE PROTECTION Tree Protection Specifications The following tree protection specifications should be followed to the maximum extent feasible. (1) Within the drip line of any protected existing tree, there shall be no cut or fill over a four-inch depth unless a qualified arborist or forester has evaluated and approved the disturbance. (2) All protected existing trees shall be pruned to the City of Fort Collins Forestry standards. (3) Prior to and during construction, barriers shall be erected around all protected existing trees with such barriers to be of orange fencing a minimum of four (4) feet in height, secured with metal T-posts, no closer than six (6) feet from WKHWUXQNRURQHKDOI ò RIWKHGULSOLQH whichever is greater. There shall be no storage or movement of equipment, material, debris or fill within the fenced tree protection zone. (4) During the construction stage of development, the applicant shall prevent the cleaning of equipment or material or the storage and disposal of waste material such as paints, oils, solvents, asphalt, concrete, motor oil or any other material harmful to the life of a tree within the drip line of any protected tree or group of trees. (5) No damaging attachment, wires, signs or permits may be fastened to any protected tree. (6) Large property areas containing protected trees and separated from construction or land clearing areas, road rights-of-way and utility easements may be "ribboned off," rather than erecting protective fencing around each tree as required in subsection (G)(3) above. This may be accomplished by placing metal t-post stakes a maximum of fifty (50) feet apart and tying ribbon or rope from stake-to-stake along the outside perimeters of such areas being cleared. (7) The installation of utilities, irrigation lines or any underground fixture requiring excavation deeper than six (6) inches shall be accomplished by boring under the root system of protected existing trees at a minimum depth of twenty-four (24) inches. The auger distance is established from the face of the tree (outer bark) and is scaled from tree diameter at breast height as described in the chart in section 3.2.1 g of the Fort Collins Land Use Code.

IT IS THE CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY TO ACQUIRE ALL NECESSARY PERMITS FOR CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS IN PUBLIC RIGHTS-OF-WAY. 15. PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF PLANT MATERIALS, THE SOIL IN ALL LANDSCAPE AREAS, INCLUDING PARKWAYS AND MEDIANS, SHALL BE THOROUGHLY LOOSENED TO A DEPTH OF NOT LESS THAN EIGHTEEN (18) INCHES AND SOIL AMENDMENT SHALL BE THOROUGHLY INCORPORATED INTO THE SOIL OF ALL LANDSCAPE AREAS TO A DEPTH OF SIX (6) INCHES BY TILLING, DISCING OR OTHER SUITABLE METHOD, AT A RATE OF AT LEAST THREE (3) CUBIC YARDS OF SOIL AMENDMENT PER ONE THOUSAND (1,000) SQUARE FEET OF LANDSCAPED AREA. 16.
