RE: Preliminary Staff Review Comments
Little Caesar's P.U.D.
Dear Steve,
The Preliminary P.U.D. Site Plan for the above referenced
project has been revised pursuant to the review comments
contained in your letter dated May 22, 1992. The following
responses correspond to the numbered comments from your
letter:
1) No action required.
2) The raised/landscaped median has been eliminated
in favor of painted lane markings. This traffic
design was performed by Matt Delich and reviewed
by Eric Bracke.
3) The owner is agreeable to an escrow of his
proportionate share of finding for the crossing at
Larimer Canal No. 2. Due to the required
involvement of other adjacent property owners,
construction at this time is not feasible. The
additional requested information has been added to
the Drainage and Grading Plan by Stewart
Engineering.
4) This sidewalk has been revised to a detached walk,
as requested.
5) The easement along the east side of the property
has been increased to 20 feet per US
West/Communication's request.
6) Street tree locations have been revised so as not
to conflict with existing utility line locations.
The monument sign at the northwest corner of the
site has also been relocated to comply with this
request.
150 EAST 29TH STREET PALMER GARDENS, SUITE 200 LOVELAND, COLORADO 80538 303/669-9060
FACSIMILE 303/669-9066
7) Stewart Engineering has made the necessary
revisions to the Utility Plans.
8) Our calculations show that the current plans
contain 369 total square feet of signage. The
neon window sign has been eliminated. The awning
over the pick-up window is not backlit and
contains no logo or identifying wordage. In
addition, the pick-up call station shown can be
eliminated in favor of a smaller
microphone/speaker pedestal. The remaining
signage is important to the owner in terms of
corporate identity and visibility/exposure.
9) The Horsetooth Road/Mitchell Drive intersection
had been resigned. Refer also to item number 2.
10) The Continental Plaza office park to the east is
provided with blanket easements with the exclusion
of building pads/footprints. Similar easements
can be granted on the Little Caesars P.U.D. if
necessary. Discussions of cross access agreements
between the two property owners have occurred.
11) Neither Transportation nor Parks and Recreation
authored this review comment. Leslie Bryson of
Parks and Recreation stated that they have no
interest or intent in developing such a trail at
this location. Thus, no further action has been
taken.
12) Per Matt Delich, this access can function as a
full turning movement access until such time that
Mitchell Drive is extended to the south across
Larimer Canal No. 2 and/or further medianization
occurs in Horsetooth Road west of JFK Parkway.
13) All landscape recommendations contained in this
review comment have been incorporated into the
revised Landscape Plan. In addition, sod
groundcover has been revised from "bluegrass" to
"fescne" blend.
14) Berming has been added along the Horsetooth Road
street frontage for additional buffering.
15) Stewart Engineering will provide evidence that
existing easements currently exist on adjacent
properties to accept drainage from this
development.
16) No action required.
Should you have any questions regarding these responses or
the revisions which have been made to the Preliminary P.U.D.
plans, please feel free to call.
Sincerely,
,aJt qua W
