Dear Rob,
Your September 8, 1997 letter to Gary Lopez of the Zoning Department regarding the rooftop
mechanical equipment at 1303 SE Frontage Road (John's Harley Davidson) was forwarded to the
Fort Collins Current Planning Department this afternoon.
Section 3.5.1 [J] [5] of the Land Use Code states: "All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be
screened from public view from both above and below by integrating it into the building
and roof design to the maximum extent feasible."
While your proposal to paint the rooftop mechanical equipment to match surrounding areas will
help screen the equipment from greater distances (such as the Prospect Road/I-25 overpass), it
will not "to the maximum extent feasible" screen the rooftop equipment from the I-25 frontage
road as previously discussed with the Current Planning Department staff.
A rooftop parapet structure similar to the existing parapet on the south and east building
elevations is needed on the north and west building elevations in order screen the rooftop
equipment "to the maximum extent feasible."
As previously discussed with the Current Planning Department staff, please submit a Minor
Amendment application with amended PUD documents showing the addition of this parapet to
the north and west building elevations.
Please call me at 221-6206 with any questions regarding these comments.
Sincerely,
Michael Ludwig, AIC
City Planner
