Dear Frank,
; and Environr�e�tai rvices
City staff has reviewed the revisions to Chili�s P.U.D. - Final,
and would like to offer the following comments:
1. The traffic study that was submitted with the revisions has a
lot of "holes" in it, related primarily to the vehicular
movement at the existing divided access/exit to and from the
Square from East Horsetooth Road. These issues must be
addressed and resolved at this time:
* the width of this access/exit driveway, and
* the allowable movements to the east, west, and south on and
across East Horsetooth Road.
A parking analysis to be provided by Matt Delich, as referred
to in your letter of 7/1/92, has not yet been received.
It is considered to be important to have a"coordination
meeting" as soon as possible, preferably involving the Little
Caesars Pizza developer, to discuss the future of the
intersections of East Horsetooth Road and South College A�renue
and future Mitchell Drive/access to the Square.
2. The total signage allowance for this property is 568 square
feet, based on the linear front footage on both South College
Avenue and East Horsetooth Road. There appears to be a
discrepancy between the typical building elevations on the
revised P.U.D. Site Plan dated 7/1/92 and elevations that were
provided to City Zoning by Heath and Company. Is signage
planned for the rear (east) elevation? This is unclear. The
City's calculations for building signage as shown on the Heath
elevations approaches the maximum allowable signage for the
entire site, not leaving much allowance for the monument sign
on the South College Avenue frontage. Information about the
height, size, materials, and colors of the monument sign
should be provided for review. Please contact Peter Barnes at
221-6760 with questions on the signage allowance.

The following language should be added to the Site Plan, in
place of General Note 10, to insure controls within this
P.U.D.:
"All signage on this P.U.D. is restricted to the number,
type, location, and size as specifically noted on this
P.U.D. Any changes or deviations shall be reviewed, in
advance, by the City of Fort Collins by the
Administrative Review procedure, including at the
Planning Director's discretion, referral to the Planning
and Zoning Board. As a condition of approval of this
P.U.D., there shall be no painted window signs or other
temporary window signs or advertising allowed."
3. No specific information about the building has been submitted
to date, other than the building will be a maximum height of
18'. What about materials, colors, lighting, etc?
4. Information about the overall lighting package for this site
should be submitted, to include parking and security lighting
and all exterior wall mounted fixtures.
5. A sidewalk connection, with handicapped ramp, should be made
at the street intersection, to allow pedestrian movement to
the south across East Horsetooth Road. A handicapped ramp
should be included in the "existing sidewalk connection to
College Avenue" (as shown on the Site Plan).
6. The striped islands at the west ends of the two banks of
parking on the east side of the building should be modified to
include curb, gutter, and landscaping.
7. Additional plant materials should be incorporated in the
triangular island adjacent to the diagonal sidewalk to the
Square, as screening material around the transformer, and in
the turfgrass area along the south side of the parking lot.
The parking area needs more screening from the arterial
street.
8. There are two Ash and one Hackberry shown to be existing south
of the parking lot along East Horsetooth Road. Would it be
better to stay with one or both of those trees, for�
continuity, rather than to introduce the Lindens into this
area?

9. There are concerns about the ability for this request to stay
on the Planning and Zoning Board agenda for July 27th as a
Final due to the significant transportation issues that still
must be resolved. Please contact me at 221-6750 to discuss the
possibility of splitting the Preliminary and Final P.U.D.
