June 15, 1992 Mr. Bernie Strom and members of the Planning and Zoning Board City of Fort Collins Development Department 281 North College Avenue P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins, Colorado 80522-0580 re: Kingston Woods P.U.D. Extension of P&Z Board Approval Mr. Strom and Members of the Board: Kingston Woods P.U.D. received final approval as part of the consent agenda of the April Planning and Zoning Board meeting. At that time, a condition was accepted that the Plat be recorded within sixty days. The time limit on this approval expires on the 22nd of this month. All on -site design work has been approved by city staff and the project is ready to proceed to construction. A problem has come up, however, regarding off -site drainage and additional time is requested in order to resolve the issue. In brief, some residents of the Casa Grande P.U.D. have expressed dissatisfaction with the existing drainage within their development. These improvements were designed, approved and constructed to meet the drainage standards which were current at the time that project was built. These improvements were also designed and approved to accommodate developed runoff from the area which is now Kingston Woods and to convey it into the City's storm drainage system. 420 S. Howes • Suite 106 • Fort Collins, Colorado 80521 • (303) 221-4158 Fort Collins Plani g and Zoning Board June 15, 1992 page 2 Since there may be an existing down -stream condition which would be acerbated by the additional stormwater runoff from Kingston Woods, we are requesting that the Planning and Zoning Board approval of the project be extended for up to a maximum of six months to allow time to work out a mutually satisfactory method of releasing runoff from Kingston Woods. We appreciate your consideration of this matter. Sin erely,� j Mich el F. Jo,P.E. cc: Ms. Kirsten Whetstone, City Development Department Mr. William L. Neal, Kingston Associates Kingston Woods PUD - Final, #58-91A April 27, 1992 P & Z Meeting Page 2 COMMENTS: . 1. Background The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: N: R-P; multi -family residential (Casa Grande PUD) and R-L-P, single family residential (Wagonwheel PUD) S: r-1-p; single family residence and vacant, (proposed church site and single family residential as shown on the Seneca ODP) and R-E; single family residential (Skyline Acres) E: R-P; vacant (proposed single family residential- The Residences at Horsetooth Commons) and proposed multi- family residential (Tract C- Horsetooth Commons ODP) W: R-P; rural single family residence, Horsetooth Stables, and Pleasant Valley and Lake Canal There is currently a single family residence with scattered out buildings located at the south end of this property. The remainder of the property is undeveloped. The property was annexed into the City of Fort Collins in April of 1980 as part of the Werner Annexation and zoned R-P, Planned Residential. In May of 1981 a proposal, known as Kingstowne PUD, was given final approval for 123 condominiums. The Kingstowne PUD has since expired. In January of 1992, a preliminary PUD for 52 single family lots was approved on this site with conditions concerning street tree locations along Seneca Street and Horsetooth Road and concerning the location of the entrance pillar features. 2. Land Use The proposed use of this site is for 52 single family lots on 16.09 acres. The gross density is 3.23 dwelling units per acre. Lots range in size from 6,000 to 19,904 square feet. The final PUD is in substantial conformance with the approved preliminary PUD plans. 3. Design The entry design feature for this proposal highlights the prominent mature stands of trees found on this 16 acre farmstead. The applicant proposes to retain the majority of existing mature trees on site. The applicant is proposing a low entrance wall feature with stone pillars on either side of the street to create a stately entrance to the property at the main entrance on Horsetooth Road. The stone pillars will not encroach in the right- of-way and the condition of preliminary approval, that the pillar issue be resolved prior to final approval, has been met. Kingston Woods PUD - Final, #58-91A April 27, 1992 P & Z Meeting Page 3 The greenbelt area along Horsetooth Road will be landscaped with a variety of coniferous and deciduous trees to provide a buffer for the lots backing onto Horsetooth Road. Street trees will be provided along both Horsetooth Road and Seneca Street. The condition that a final landscape plan be submitted showing the location and type of street trees being proposed for Horsetooth Road and Seneca Street has been met. Additional information on the grass mix for the greenbelt areas along Horsetooth and for the detention pond have been included in the final landscape plan, as well as all standard requirements for a final landscape plan. The eastern most lots, south of Patterson Drive, are adjacent to a master planned multi -family area (Tract C of Horsetooth Commons Master Plan). The applicant has indicated that he will provide a 6' wood fence at the time of building construction. Fencing details have been included on the site plan. A 20' access and utility easement is located along the eastern side of the Pleasant Valley and Lake Canal. A pedestrian/bike trail has been master planned in this area according to the Parks and Recreation Department and a future trail easement has been clearly designated on the plat and site and landscape plans to provide advance notice to all future home buyers that a City trail will someday run along the backs of those lots. 4. Neighborhood Compatibility A neighborhood meeting was not held for this project. Single family lots as proposed are compatible withthe existing residential development to the north and planned residential uses to the east. The property to the west is vacant. To the south is primarily vacant land with a single family homestead. 5. Storm Drainage Runoff flows for a majority of the site will be routed to a detention pond in the northeast corner of the property. The overall flow pattern is from southwest to northeast. Final drainage, grading, and erosion control plans have been reviewed and accepted by the Stormwater Utility.
