NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING SUMMARY
PROJECT: Steele's Market at Harmony Market P.U.D., Filing Three, Final
APPLICANT: Mr. Bert Steele, Steele's Market
REPRESENTATIVE: Mr. Greg Fisher, The Neenan Company
PROJECT PLANNER: Ted Shepard
DATE: July 30, 1990
QUESTIONS, CONCERNS, COMMENTS
1. Will there be a signal at the Lemay Avenue curb cut?
RESPONSE: No, this curb cut will not be signalized. It will allow full
turning movements and be provided with a deceleration lane on Lemay. A
signal is planned for Oak Ridge Drive/Lemay Avenue since this is an arterial
and collector intersection. This signal will not be installed until the warrants
(engineering criteria) are met.
2. As the City continues to grow to the south, traffic on Lemay will likely
increase. Will cars exiting Steele's be able to make a left turn to go north on
Lemay Avenue?
RESPONSE: Our studies indicate that this turn will be able to be made
although there may be delays at the peak hour.
3. It is suggested that there be a less cumbersome way to get from Steele's to
Oak Ridge Drive. The plan shows a real tough angle to get from the parking
lot to head south. If there is heavy traffic on Lemay, most folks will want to
access Lemay from Oak Ridge Drive, not the internal drive aisle curb cut.
There should be an easier way to get to Oak Ridge Drive.
RESPONSE: This is a very good comment and the internal circulation will be
explored to make this an easier situation.
4. Does the internal drive aisle go all the way to Boardwalk?
RESPONSE: Yes.
5. Where does the drainage go?
RESPONSE: Stormwater runoff is detained south and east of the building.
From these detention ponds, flows are released into a swale and pipe system
that passes under Lemay and into the Oak Ridge development, and into a
regional pond. Ultimately, flows reach Fossil Creek Reservoir.
. •
6. The Fairway Estates pond is polluted due to upstream development. Will
measures be taken to treat or filter the stormwater runoff from Steele's?
RESPONSE: There currently is no City requirement to install stormwater
filtration berms. The ones that have been installed on recent developments
have been put in at the developer's option. The City Stormwater Utility will
require a grease trap to be installed adjacent to the butcher shop so when the
mats are hosed down, the residue does not enter the stormwater conveyance
system.
7. What is the timing of the development?
RESPONSE: It is anticipated that construction will begin in the Spring of
1991, and the store would open in the Fall of 1991.
8. Since a grocery store is considered a neighborhood serving business, versus
the community/regional serving Pace and Builders Square, what is being done
to promote bicycle and pedestrian access? What can be done to encourage
residents north of Harmony Road to cross Harmony without having to use their
cars to feel safe? Right now, a pedestrian has to run across Harmony Road
even with the green light in order to make it in time. Should the median in
Harmony be improved so there is a safe waiting area, protected by raised
curbs, to assist a pedestrian?
RESPONSE: These are good comments. Please keep in mind that Harmony
Road is a state highway, and not under the jurisdiction of the City. The
City's Transportation Department will be asked to look into the crossing time
for Harmony Road for a pedestrian. The City's Engineering Department will
be asked to look into a providing a safe waiting area in the median area if
the pedestrian does not make it in time.
9. I would like to make a follow up comment on the bicycle and pedestrian
connections. We must begin now to plan for less dependency on the
automobile. The developer and architect are encouraged to provide bicycle and
pedestrian amenities and not just plan for the auto.
10. Please be sure to provide a bike rack area that does not interfere with the
sidewalk system. Racks should be securely fastened to the concrete and not
temporary in nature. A covered area would offer protection from weather.
The location should be relatively close to the entrance.
11. Will this new store pull customers away from the Foothills Parkway store?
RESPONSE: Yes, initially, customers will be pulled away, but we hope to
recapture additional customers in the long run.
12. Are the pad sites still valid?
RESPONSE: Yes, the pad sites are still available for potential development.
13. Will there be additional signage?
• •
RESPONSE: Yes, there will be an additional monument sign, triangular in
shape to match the Pace and Builders Square sign. There will also be signage
on the front of the building as on the other two stores in Fort Collins.
14. Will the trellis, brick and steel beam treatment be featured on the
building? This is becoming a distinctive feature of the Harmony Market P.U.D.
and should be carried throughout the project.
RESPONSE: This particular feature is not included as of yet. Please keep in
mind that there will be more angles and varied front elevation than the Pace
or Builders Square. This option will be investigated.
