Fisher 3115 Clyde Street Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Greg: Staff has reviewed the request for Steele's Market Retail Addition, Final P.U.D. and offers the following comments 1. The Engineering Department will need additional detail on the construction of new sidewalks. This detail should be added to the site plan, thereby alleviating the need to submit a utility plan.. 2. The original construction documents for Steele's Market submitted for building permit in 1991 state that the allowable floor area of the building is "unlimited" in accordance with Section 506(b) of the Uniform Building Code. This section of the building code requires that the building be entirely surrounded and adjoined by public ways or yards not less than 60 feet in width. The west exterior wall.of the existing building is located on the property line. This discrepancy should be addressed prior to P.U.D. consideration of the retail expansion. 3. Since the expansion exceeds 5,000 square feet in area, an automatic fire suppression system is required in accordance with Section 3802 of the U.B.C., as amended by the City of Fort Collins.. 4. The new expansion area shall be accessible to persons with disabilities in accordance with U.B.C. section 3103 and U.B.C. Appendix 3106. Please provide. designated and marked accessible routes between building and the public way, and accessible parking and building. Please provide parking signs per Appendix section 3107.' 4. On the site plan, please label as sheet one of three. Also, please indicate in the title that this is a "Final P.U.D." 5. On the landscape plan, please label as sheet two of three. 6. Are there any plans to re -locate the existing trees? Can these trees be planted elsewhere on the property such as 281 North College Avenue • P.O. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 around the detention pond or other areas in the Harmony Market? If these trees are to be removed and cannot be relocated on the site, it is suggested that Poudre R-1 be contacted for a possible donation since there are several new schools, including the new high school, which have substantial landscaping needs. 7. on the architectural elevation, please label as sheet three of three. This concludes Staff comments -at this time. Staff would like to add that P.U.D. documents are complete and detailed and represent a commendable submittal package.
