Box 380 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS MEETING DATE: April 29, 1991 ITEM: Lot 9 Blevins Court APPLICANT: Robert Kent Glover David E. Knox 901 Canosa Ct. Fort Collins, CO 80526 LAND USE DATA: This is a proposal to construct a one and a half story four-plex structure on a vacant lot. The property is described as lot 9 in Blevins Subdivision, located on Blevins Court between West Lake and West Prospect, just west of South Whitcomb Road. The lot is approximately 12,000 sq. ft. in size. COMMENTS: 1. The property is zoned RL, Low Density Residential, which does not allow a four plex as a use by right. This proposal would have to be submitted and reviewed as a PUD, Planned Unit Development, under the Land Development Guidance System. You would have to address the "All Development" criteria, paying particular attention to the social and neighborhood compatibility criteria. You would also have to address the Density Chart and provide justification for all points taken. 2. A neighborhood meeting would be required prior to submittal. I,will attach some information on the neighborhood meeting process, but generally we need about 2-3 week lead time to properly notify the neighborhood. 3. Normal Light and Power development charges apply. Consult the . hand out from Light and Power to determine your charges. Your __ _._electric service will be placed underground with this development. Light and Power will do some research to see what the time frame.looks like for undergrounding service in the rest of the neighborhood. It may depend on the Streets Department schedule for road overlays. 7. 4.' Mark -Taylor from the Water and Wastewater Department sent you a letter describing the problem with water service to this lot. When the new water main is built you can take your service off of it. There needs to be a minimum of 15' separating the sewer main from the building. You will need to dedicate utility easements for this purpose. 5. All exterior portions of the building need to be within 150' of a road, for fire access. Please contact the Poudre Fire Authority at 221- 6570 for more information. A fire hydrant will be necessary and will be placed at the end of the water main in Blevins Court. 6. Parkland fees are $625 per unit and are collected at the time of building permit issuance. 7. This property is in the Spring Creek Basin where Storm Drainage fees are $1610 per acre. A storm drainage report, and grading and drainage plan will be required as part of the submittal. On site detention will be required and can possibly be incorporated into your parking area. The report should verify that outfall to the curb and gutter will be sufficient. 8. A one hour fire construction is required between, all units, whether vertically or horizontally.. 9. A traffic impact, analysis will be required with your study.' Contact the Transportation Department for specific information. The issue of adequate on -site parking, as well as visitor/ over -flow parking into the neighborhood, should be addressed by the study. A bike barn or shed for bike parking and security is a great idea. 10. Any damaged sidewalks, curbs, and gutters should be repaired or replaced at this time. A street cut permit from the Engineering Department would be required for cutting into streets for utility taps. 11. Street oversizing fees of $584/unit are applicable and are collected at the time of building permit issuance. 12. Contact Dave Klockeman at 221-6605 for information on the timing of street overlays in the area. The water main will be constructed prior to any overlays. 13. A landscape plan will be required as part of your submittal. The importance of screening and buffering along the property lines can not be over emphasized. The general guide would be to provide a 75% opaque screen from the single family lots. --This could be a shadow box fence or landscaping which provides the same opacity. 14. Staff would encourage you to contact the Prospect Shields Neighborhood Group c/o Emily Smith at 1000 W. Prospect, Fort Collins, CO 80521, prior to the neighborhood meeting. They will likely have many comments and ideas for you to incorporate into your design.
