The design intent of Mosaic Neighborhood Center is to provide contextually appropriate commercial uses, such as retail, and restaurant uses. The other component of the project is a proposed pool building and associated pool area. This would be the second pool for the neighborhood and serve as a smaller ‘lounge’ type pool with hot tub and wet deck area. There would also be an outdoor kitchen/ dining area with areas to gather. Adjacent to the hot tub area would be a dual sided fireplace that would face the pool area and also the community gathering area outside of the pool fencing. The community gathering area would include the fire place, gathering area with open turf for yard games, hammocks, etc. BACKGROUND: The existing site is undeveloped within the overall Mosaic Neighborhood. The lot area is 46,627 sf 1.07 Acres with the total site area disturbance is 31,004 sf. 1. PROJECT TITLE: East Ridge - Mosaic Neighborhood Center 2.

NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING TBD Project Narrative EAST RIDGE - MOSAIC NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER 8. SITE DESIGN East Ridge - Mosaic Neighborhood Center will be the completion of the ODP introducing the Neighborhood Center opportunity for commercial retail and restaurant uses to support the surrounding neighborhood. A contemporary ‘lounge’ type pool with hot tub and wet deck area, as well as an outdoor kitchen/dining component to enhance the pool experience. Adjacent to the hot tub area would be a dual sided fireplace that would face the pool area and also the community gathering area outside of the pool fencing. The community gathering area would include the fire place, gathering area with open turf for yard games, hammocks, and other flexible uses. This site is accessed from Conquest Way for vehicular and pedestrians, as well pedestrians can access the commercial building from Sykes Way. Landscaping will use a variety of low water and native species as well as a hybrid bluegrass sod. 9. DISTURBANCES An ECS report was not required for this site. 10. TRANSITION TECHNIQUES The project seeks to transition to both the surrounding single family detached neighborhood across the street as well as the condo development to the north of this development. The architecture style as well as the site design and planting will complement and each other. 11. ARCHITECTURE The proposed architecture will include a 4,000 sf commercial building, as well as a 1,000 sf pool house with associated entry kiosk. The architecture will be a mix of classic prairie style to modern elevation that blends and complements the existing surrounding neighborhood. 12. PHASING SCHEDULE This development will be phased - the phasing plan will be determined moving forward. The design team will provide an update on the phasing of the project. UTILITIES The site utilizes existing infrastructure in the area to provide services for the project. Water for domestic and fire use, sanitary sewer, storm drainage and electric services is provided by the City of Fort Collins. Natural gas is provided by Xcel Energy. Phone and Internet is provided by CenturyLink and/or Comcast. LIGHTING All lighting will meet City of Fort Collins requirements. A photometric plan has been submitted. STORMWATER: Stormwater detention is taken care of with the large detention and water quality area within the development. This is centrally located south of the proposed park. The site drains from the NW to the SE -- we are proposing to utilize the existing inlet that will be adjusted from a flared end section to an inlet to take run off to the large water quality and detention area that’s located near the future park. Run-off will be treated at the water quality area near the future park centrally located in the neighborhood. Existing easements to the north and west greatly impact the development area -- a 30’ wide water line easement to the west along with some utility easements to the north. TRASH AND RECYCLING SERVICE: Trash and recycling services will be handled by two (4) Yard dumpsters located within a trash enclosure that features similar materials to the Building. The commercial and pool uses will share the trash and recycling dumpsters.
