Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF LOMMENTS MEETING DATE: January 11, 1993 ITEM: Stone Ridge P.U.D., Phase Two APPLICANT: Les Kaplan c/o Vaught - Frye Architects, 1113 Stoney Hill Drive, Fort Collins, CO. 80525. LAND USE DATA: Phase Two of Stone Ridge P.U.D. is located on the north and west portions of the Stone Ridge Overall Development Plan. Phase Two consists of approximately 45 single family lots on approximately 17 acres. COMMENTS: 1. The existing electrical system can be logically extended to serve the future phases. Normal residential development charges will apply. Please contact Alan Rutz, 221-6700, for further details. 2. The water main can be tapped to run mains up the proposed cut - de -sacs. Looping these secondary mains is not required as it is preferred to not run a main between side lot lines. It is preferred that the sewer main be brought down to the south to Fieldstone. Again, the primary reason is the reluctance to have a sewer main located between side or rear lot lines within a residential subdivision. For further information, please contact Mark Taylor, 221-6681: 3. The "neighborhood" park for this square mile section will be located just north of the high school athletic fields. The "community" park for this area has not been located. Generally, community parks serve a four square mile area. Such a park is not in the works and land is not being sought for acquisition. Since it takes a population threshold of approximately 20,000 persons to support a community park, the present lack of residential density makes community park planning premature at this particular time. 4. The pedestrian and bicycle trail on the north side of the project is part of the non -vehicular network that was planned for the Pine,Cone/High School Overall Development Plan. The design details and long term maintenance have not been specified. The trail will not be a part of the City Parks and Rec Department system. 5. The site is located in the Foothills Drainage Basin. The stormwater fees in this basin are $5,501 per acre factored by the amount of onsite detention and the runoff coefficient. It is the City's understanding that the existing pond on the eastern portion of the site will serve as the permanent detention pond upon build -out of the project. For further information, please contact Cathy Malers, Stormwater Utility, 221-6589. 6. The Engineering Department requests that a variance be applied for the 28 foot wide streets and for the proposed entry median. The median must use drip irrigation and be equipped with full depth asphalt. Positive drainage away from the median is preferable. There should be a minimum of 20 feet of lane width on either side of the median. 7. The second phase will required the standard set of utility plans and development agreement. 8. The Street Oversizing Fee remains at $584 per dwelling unit payable at the time of building permit issuance. 9. Please address the compliance rate for solar orientation. 10. The P.U.D. should include the same fencing guidelines as on Phase One. 11. Since the density for Phase Two will be less than 3.00 dwelling units per acre, please address the density for the O.D.P. 12. A Preliminary and Final combined submittal is allowed subject to the caveat that should the plans not be in final form at the end of seven weeks, the project may be continued to the following public hearing.
