RE: Silver Oaks Filing One
Dear Dick:
The City of Fort Collins Parks and Recreation Department has some
concerns about the long term maintenance of some of the common
areas within Silver Oaks. There seems to be a trend, over the long
term, for residents of single family homes to come back to the City
to take over turf and walk maintenance within designated common
areas. In most all cases, these common areas are not dedicated to
the public but remain under the ownership and jurisdiction of the
homeowner's association. Also, the City is concerned about the
long term irrigation along the two public streetscapes. This
irrigation system should be separate from internal open space areas
that are under the jurisdiction of the homeowner's association and
not dedicated to the public.
Accordingly, it is requested that the two following explanatory
notes be placed on the P.U.D. Landscape Plan:
1. "A separate irrigation system is to be installed for
those areas that are along the two public streetscapes
that are within the public right-of-way."
2. "There shall be no maintenance of any kind by City of
Fort Collins maintenance crews, including snow removal,
within the non -publicly dedicated common areas at the
terminus of the two cul-de-sacs along Horsetooth Road,
and in association with the eight foot walk in Tract A."
Note No. 2 should be placed on the P.U.D. Site Plan since Tract A
does not appear on the Landscape Plan. If you have any questions
regarding these two explanatory notes, please feel free to call our
office.
Sincerely:
All
