Tanning any: Environmental vices Current P City of Fort Collins August 18, 1995 George T. Sanders Co. c/o Linda Ripley and Associates 223 Jefferson Street Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Linda, Staff has reviewed your documents for the George T. Sanders P.U.D., Preliminary, that were submitted on July 24, 1995, and would like to offer the following comments: Staff has determined that the proposed Preliminary and Final (combined) submittal will be downgraded to a Preliminary PUD only. Combined Preliminary and Final PUD's are required to meet Final PUD submittal standards. The stormdrainage documentation that was submitted did not meet Final standards. Flows from this site are proposed to be passed onto the NO Brothers property, but no explanation was given as to how these flows eventually get to Fossil Creek. No easements or letters of intent to provide easements were submitted. A revised drainage report which addresses the routing of these flows to Fossil Creek and letters of intent from downstream property owners to provide easements for these flows must be provided by the revision deadline to avoid any delays in the Planning and Zoning Board's consideration of this Preliminary PUD. Attached are comments from the Stormwater Utility. 2. The applicant must either provide a public turn -around at the south end of Fossil Boulevard or must provide a public access easement through the proposed parking lots. Please indicate the land use proposed for the approximately 30,000 square feet of building space. Is it warehouse, retail, or a combination? 4. Please add a note to the Site Plan which addresses the screening of roof -top mechanical equipment. Please add a note to the Site and Landscape Plans which states that trash dumpsters are to be fully enclosed and gated. The "legend" indicates that trash enclosures are designated on the Site and Landscape Plans. However, no "T"'s were found on the plans. Elevation drawings of the enclosures should be included on the elevation sheet. 281 North Colleize Avenue • P.O. Box 580 Fort Coilins, CO 80522-0580 • (mi0) 221-6740 FAX (9770) 21-637/8 TDD (L?T/ ) 224-6002 • 6. A six foot wooden fence and landscaping should be provided on eastern boundary of the outside storage yard as this boundary faces the public right-of-way. 7. Please provide overall dimensions for the building elevations and indicate building materials. Are the building materials and colors compatible with other surrounding land uses such as Webergs Furniture? 8 The Fort Collins - Loveland Water District and the South Fort Collins Sanitation District have reviewed the above mentioned project and submit the following comments: a. The District's signature block is required on sheet 1 0-6. b. The general notes on sheet 1 of 6 are to be revised to indicate that all sanitary sewer and water line construction shall conform to the most current construction specifications of the South Fort Collins Sanitation District and the Fort Collins - Loveland Water District. C. The top of the 4 inch sanitary sewer service, to the south building, is to be at or higher than the top of the existing 8 inch sewer line at the east invert. The service is to be core drilled into the existing manhole and the invert reconstructed. d. A blow -off is required on the existing water line on the north side of the project. e. The existing fire hydrant on the south side of the project may need to be relocated to avoid a conflict with the sidewalk. 9. Attached are comments and requested revisions by the Engineering Department. 10. The Mapping Department offers the following comments: a. In the Statement of Dedication, the plat name is missing. b. The drainage easement on Lot 2 cannot be field located. C. We require the Plat to be tied to "Primary Control". We have allowed a "Replat" to use the boundary of the old plat as control, but we have not allowed a new plat (unplatted tract) to just tie to an adjoining plat without ties to the section control. d. Please define the areas within the lots. The lines have no bearings or distances. 11. The Building Inspections and Zoning Department offers the following comments: a. Building envelopes should not be shown on the Plat. b. The gravel outdoor storage area may not be used for the parking or storage of vehicles. • 0 C. Will a backing truck be able to negotiate a turn in the drive and parking area adequately? Trucks cannot back in from the public street. d. Additional plantings are needed along the south edge of the parking lot. e. Building envelope dimensions are needed. 12. U S WEST offers the following states: "Review of these plans should not be construed as a commitment that telephone facilities sufficient to serve this project are presently available. U S WEST will provide telephone service in accordance with the rates and tariffs on file with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission. The owner is responsible for provision of all conduit, ditch, and street crossings for telephone facilities within the project. The owner also provides terminal room space (usually 4' x 8') and power for the main terminal at one building on each property, generally in a janitors' closet or utility room. The owner's vendor provides all facilities beyond the main terminal. Contact the U S WEST engineer for conduit specifications for the main telephone entrance cable. Any relocation of existing telephone facilities required by these plans will be paid for by the developer." 13. The Light and Power Utility offers the following comments: a. Trees must conform to street/tree standards for streetlight installation. b. The applicant will need to coordinate transformer locations. C. Any relocation of Light and Power facilities will be at owners expense. This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request. Please be aware of the following dates and deadlines to assure your ability to stay on schedule for the September 25, 1995 Planning and Zoning Board hearing: Plan revisions are due by 5:00 p.m. on September 6, 1995.
