CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS
MEETING DATE: June 27, 1988
PROJECT: 403 S. Whitcomb PUD
APPLICANT: Steve McGinnis, 403 S. Whitcomb, Fort Collins, CO 80521
LAND USE DATA: Request for a PUD for retail antique sales at 403 S. Whit-
comb, zoned R-H, High Density Residential.
COMMENTS:
1. The new building cannot be placed over existing utility lines or easements.
2. A Commercial One form from Light and Power will be required.
3. A permit from Engineering Construction Inspection will be required before
driveway improvements are made.
4. A Planned Unit Development must be approved by the Planning and Zon-
ing Board in order to conduct retail sales in this zone.
5. The West Side Neighborhood Plan is being reviewed by the Planning and
Zoning Board and may be adopted by City Council by September 1988.
The Plan indicates that this area should remain residential and that the
amount of commercial uses in residential neighborhoods should be limited.
6. Off-street parking for customers must be provided. The provision of off-
street parking in the front yard would deviate from the present residential
character of the site and area.
7. Planning Staff would have a difficult time supporting the proposal to
introduce a free-standing retail use in an established residential neighbor-
hood.
8. A neighborhood meeting would be required if the PUD is pursued. The
attached pages provide additional information on the PUD process.
