This lot will be accessed by major infrastructure installed as part of Bloom filing nine BDR. Lot 1 - Bloom filing 9 will follow standards as established within the Mulberry & Greenfields PUD Master Plan, as applicable. Approval of this Lot 1 - Bloom Filing 9 PDP shall be type 1 as required per the Mulberry & Greenfields Master Plan. The site has been laid out in conjunction with Bloom Filing 9, reinforcing the design principles and strategies that have been established and implemented in current built phases within the Bloom community. The components of the proposed improvements have been thoughtfully designed to support and seamlessly integrate into the surrounding context based on both current and future visions. The design approach has placed emphasis on creating a commercial development/food hall/restaurant that will anchor the heart of the commercial district. The building placement on the site was very intentional, placing emphasis on the public open space (park / plaza) frontage and providing strong connections to the internal and external multimodal path for Bloom and the surrounding communities. Aligning with the masterplan vision for this commercial district the surface lot parking was placed to the north and west of the development in order to preserve a “main street” quality to the east on future Bloom Boulevard. • Owner(s): Bloom PropCo, LLC 4801 Goodman Street Timnath, CO 80547 • Transportation Improvements: All public transportation improvements that support access to this site will be provided with the Bloom Filing Nine BDR. This project will build out the final design of the access easement with the parking lot design for Lot 1 providing a finished asphalt surface and connection from Bloom Boulevard to Donella Drive on the western half of Lot 1 and through Tract A. • Building and Site Design: The proposed project is a new-build consisting of a pre-engineered metal building containing the “dining room” of the food hall and bar, as well as back of house areas, storage and restrooms. Docked at exterior openings in the building will be mobile shipping containers on trailers fitted out with commercial kitchens and “private” dining components. The mobile kitchen containers will remain anchored to their trailers, while the trailers themselves will be anchored to the building by way of a dock leveler restraint and stabilizing jack anchored to the ground. This temporary foundation system acts to secure the containers in place on site and provides adjustments to level the containers to maintain appropriate interior circulation between the containers and the building. It is anticipated that the mobile kitchen containers will be rotated periodically to introudce new food concepts to the project. Lot 1 - Bloom Filing 9 - Sojourn Project Narrative The mobile kitchen containers will have their own ansul system “onboard” (similar to food trucks). Make up air related to the hood exhaust will be provided through the building hvac system. The containers will have a dry-pipe sprinkler system that connects to the building’s sprinkler system. All other utilities serving the shipping containers will be provided in/by the building. Said differently, the shipping containers will connect to the building with approved “quick disconnect” type connections. These connections include: • Water • Electricity • Gas • Sanitary sewer • Grease waste (in-ground grease waste interceptor on site) The building connects to the public plaza and park at the main entry on the east facing elevation. There is exterior seating at the northeast corner of the builidng that provides views and a connection to the public park. An exterior covered terrace is on the south side of the building, which extends into a landscaped area for dining, recreation, and entertainment. • Impacts to Natural Habitats: There will be no impacts to natural habitat with the Lot 1 - Bloom- Filing Nine -Sojourn area. All improvements are proposed to occur within areas that have had previous improvements and/or overlot grading and erosion control seeding. • Development Phasing: No phasing is being proposed with this development site.
