Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 • • CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS city of Fart Callins MEETING DATE: March 7, 1994 ITEM: Diamond Shamrock Gas and Convenience Store at Timberline Road and Milestone Drive. APPLICANT: Diamond Shamrock c/o Scot Williamson, 520 East 56th Avenue, Denver, CO. 80216 LAND USE DATA: Request for a 1,650 square foot convenience store, with four gas pump islands, gas canopy, and 1,000 square foot, one - bay, automatic carwash located at the southeast corner of Timberline Road and Milestone Drive. The parcel is about one acre in size. COMMENTS: 1. The City of Fort Collins is able to provide three-phase electrical power to the site from the south. This power will be brought to the site via an underground system, on the east side of Timberline Road, paid for by Light and Power. Normal development charges will apply. 2. The location of the transformer must be coordinated with both Light and Power and the Planning Department. The transformer must not be located along Timberline or Milestone but must be screened from view of public streets. Screening may consist of landscaping or an enclosure. An enclosure must feature gates and minimum clearances on all four sides. On one side, the transformer must be within eight feet of hard surface for access by a boom truck for emergency change out without damaging landscaping. Please contact Alan Rutz, 221-6750, for further information. 3. Water and sewer will be provided by the City of Fort Collins. There is a 16 inch diameter water main in Milestone that will be extended to Timberline to serve the subject site. Similarly, a sewer main will also be extended from Sunstone P.U.D. to Timberline and is available to serve the site. Normal development charges will apply. Please contact Mark Taylor, 221-6681, for further details. 4. The carwash will require the installation of a sand/oil interceptor on the sanitary sewer line. The City has minimum specifications and details on this installation. 5. The Poudre Fire Authority will require the submittal of a Hazardous Materials Impact Analysis. Please contact Ron Gonzales, Poudre Fire Authority, 221-6570. 6. The site is located in the Fox Meadows Drainage Basin. The development fee in this basin is $4,891 per developed acre, subject to the amount of impervious surface, the runoff coefficient, and the amount of onsite stormwater detention. The P.U.D. submittal will require a Drainage Report, Drainage and Grading Plan, and Erosion Control Plan. 7. The Drainage and Grading Plan must comply with the assumptions and parameters that have been established for Timberline Farm Overall Development Plan. Also, all drainage and grading considerations must comply with the Fox Meadows Master Drainage Plan for the entire basin. 8. The site will likely drain into the detention pond for Sunstone 8th Filing. It is the responsibility of the consulting engineer to verify the available capacity of this pond and verify that flows can be conveyed to this pond. This may involve verifying street capacity for accepting more storm flows. For further information regarding drainage issues, please contact Glen Schlueter, 221-6589. 9. The Engineering Department will require that public improvements to Timberline Road conform to the plans being generated by two local consulting firms (R.B.D. and Northern Engineering). Please be cautioned that these plans are not final at this time. 10. Normal requirements along Timberline Road are that the developer is responsible for 12 feet (width) of full depth asphalt paving, curb, and gutter. The sidewalk along Timberline will be seven feet wide. The developer is reimbursed for three feet of this total width. The sidewalk should be detached from the curb by a minimum of 9.5 feet for the purpose of creating a parkway strip for street trees. Sidewalks are allowed to slightly meander and, if necessary, may placed outside the public right-of-way but within a dedicated access easement. 11. Since Milestone Drive is a local street, the developer is responsible for the full construction. A local street consists of 36 feet of pavement, flowline to flowline, on 54 feet of right-of-way. Sidewalks, on both sides, are four feet wide and may or may not be attached to the curb. Curb and gutter are also required. The City does not financially participate in this improvement. 12. It may be necessary for Milestone Drive to be built to collector standards at the intersection with Timberline Road in order to create the necessary turn lanes. 13. A traffic impact analysis will be required. Please be aware that a traffic signal will not be installed at the Timberline/Milestone intersection. 14. The street oversizing fee is $14,005 per acre, payable at the time of building permit issuance. 15. The Transportation Department has concerns about the placement of a high traffic generator adjacent to a major arterial street (Timberline) served by a local street (Milestone). Since Milestone will not be signalized, it may be difficult to make left turn exits from Milestone to Timberline during peak times. 16. It is suggested that the canopies also feature pitched roofs. 17. A neighborhood information meeting will be required. The developer is responsible for generating the mailing list of affected property owners within the geographic area determined by the Planning Department. Mailing labels must be on self- adhesive labels, 33 per sheet. Please contact the Planning Department for this notification map, at the time that you are ready to proceed. Property owners must be notified at least seven days prior to the meeting.
