HomeMy WebLinkAboutLITTLE CAESARS PUD FINAL - 28 92A - CORRESPONDENCE - STAFF'S PROJECT COMMENTSCommi y Planning and Environmental rvices Planning Department City of Fort Collins July 23, 1992 Alan Hauser Architecture One 150 East 29th Street Palmer Gardens Suite 200 Loveland, CO. 80538 Dear Alan, Staff has reviewed your submittal for Little Caesars P.U.D., Final, and has the following comments to offer: 1. A south bound left turn lane into Little Caesars must be provided on Mitchell Drive. 2. All access roads and drives must be dedicated cross -access easements, including the connection to the existing parking lots to the east. 3. If parking problems develop that obstruct fire access, then additional "No Parking - Fire Lane" signs and red painted curbs may be required. 4. The plat shows a 14' utility easement along the east property line. The Site Plan shows a 20' utility easement along that same line. A 20' easement is needed to avoid the telephone pedestals in the driveway. 5. The detached walk along East Horsetooth Road conflicts with two telephone pedestals that are shown on the Drainage & Grading Plan. One pedestal is a large interface which is costly to move. It may be necessary to make some modifications in the sidewalk location. 6. The planting of trees in the utility easements adjoining the south right-of-way line of Horsetooth Road and the east right- of-way line of Mitchell Drive must be coordinated closely with Public Service Company. Trees may not be planted any closer than 4' to natural gas lines, existing or proposed, in these easements. Also, installation of the parking lot paving and curbing in Lot 1 that is proposed to encroach into the 10' utility easement adjoining Mitchell Drive must be delayed until after gas line installation in this easement. 281 North College Avenue - P.O. Box 580 - Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 - (303) 221-6750 MW 7. The water main must be extended to the south across the Larimer Canal No. 2 at the time Mitchell Drive is constructed across the ditch. 8. A copy of the Stormwater Utility comments is attached. 9. The Landscape Plan needs to clearly identify what areas are sod, cobble, mulch, etc. It is unclear as to what groundcovers are occurring where. 10. The masonry exterior finish should be clearly noted that it is to be brick material. The color should be identified as close as possible. 11. The information for Lot 2, the office building, on the Site & Landscape Plans should be removed or labeled as "preliminary only, subject to final review by the City". 12. This site includes a portion of the Larimer Canal No. 2. The City wants to be assured that it gets an access easement along the ditch, assuming that it does not have an easement on the south side already. How does the ditch company access the area for maintenance? 13. A signed plat with all signatures, including the property owners to the west, must be submitted to the City by the Monday before the Planning and Zoning Board hearing (August 17) to assure that the Mitchell Drive right-of-way is in place. 14. The timing and cost for the Mitchell Drive ditch crossing must still be resolved. Please coordinate this with Mike Herzig and Kerrie Ashbeck in Engineering. 15. Foundation Shrubs should be provided at the base of the stucco wall on the west elevation, underneath the painted logo. 16. A note precluding window signage should be added to the Site Plan and elevation drawing. 17. Information on the appearance and function of the pick-up call board should be submitted to the plans. This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request. Please be aware of the following dates and deadlines to assure your ability to stay on the agenda for the August 24, 1992 Planning and Zoning Board hearing: Plan revisions are due August 5, 1992 by 12:00 noon.
