RE: Allied Building Products – Project Development Plan
2155 Midpoint Drive, Fort Collins, CO 80525
Statement of Planning Objectives
This is a request to develop the lot north of 2155 Midpoint Dr, Fort Collins, CO 80525. The proposal
is to build a lean-to structure and storage yard to support storage and distribution of roofing
materials for the Allied Building Products property to the south. The proposed structure is a 6,600
SF that will be completely open on the east side, opening up to a storage yard. The total site area is
1.87 acres. The proposed project is within the Employment (E) zone district and is subject to
administrative (Type 1) Review. The intent is to provide a site to receive and distribute roofing
materials. There will be no retail sales at this location.
A neighborhood meeting was not conducted for this proposal. There is no expectation that
neighboring property owners would object to this project due to the relative similarities of this
project to the neighboring properties.
Site Plan
New construction on the site will consist of the construction of the new lean-to, supporting storage
yard, and pedestrian walkway along Midpoint Dr. The site design includes a shared circle driveway
for loading/unloading of materials. Once the site plan in approved, existing easements will be
vacated and new easements dedicated as needed. The site features terraces along the west side of the
building to function as a L.I.D. feature for stormwater infiltration. There is no new parking
associated with this site – there will be no new employees, offices or requirements for additional
parking. Parking for the Allied employees exists on the south and west sides of the existing Allied
Building Products building.
Existing landscape materials have been evaluated by the City Forester. Trees and shrubs to be
preserved and replaced are provided on the Landscape plan included herein. There are no wetlands,
natural habitats and features and or wildlife that require protection as a result of this project
proposal. The facility will be owned and maintained by the owner including the tree lawn located
within the Midpoint Drive right of way.
Utilities
There is an existing sanitation and water line running north/south on the west side of the property
beneath the driveway. There is an existing gas line running north/south through the center of the

property. The existing services for each utility will not be removed or replaced as a result of this
project.
Grading, Drainage & Stormwater Management
The overall imperviousness of the site will be increased from 56% to 75%. Direction of the flow is
generally northeast to southwest. New runoff has been accounted for and treated, and historic
drainage patterns have been maintained. There is an existing water quality pond on the property
directly east of the subject property, which was intended to receive stormwater from this site. A full
drainage report and grading plans have been included for review and comment.
Thank you for your review of this project, I look forward to the conclusion of this review process.
Sincerely,
Deanne Frederickson
