Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS MEETING DATE: August 26, 1991 ITEM: 829 S. Shields Minor Subdivision APPLICANT: David Massey 1320 Windjammer Cove Fort Collins, CO 80524 LAND USE DATA: This is a proposal to remodel the old Godfather's Pizza Restaurant and convert it into a shoe sales and postal station retail building. The proposed retail and. post office consist of approximately 3000 square feet of floor space. The applicant is also proposing to construct a 350-400 square foot addition for storage, on the north side of the existing building. COMMENTS: 1. Light and Power development fees will apply only if you are proposing to change the panel size for your electric needs. 2. The property is zoned BL, Limited Business, and the proposed uses are allowed by the zoning code. The change in use, from restaurant to a retail sales, requires that the new use be on a legal subdivided lot and that the parking lot meet requirements of the parking code. This code requires a 15' wide landscaped set back behind the sidewalk across the front. It also requires that 6% of the interior parking lot be landscaped and that a 5' wide landscaped area buffer the parking lot from adjacent properties to the north and south. 3. The Water Utility has no comments if you are not proposing changes to water and sewer service for the property. `4-.- -Please submit .a letter with your Minor Subdivision plat to address the storm drainage situation on the property. Please explain and show on the site plan, the current stormwater run- off patterns, the amount of landscaped areas you will be adding, and the amount of impervious surfaces (paving, concrete, building) you will be adding to the site. Explain how this remodel will change the storm water run-off from the property and how it will impact the surrounding properties. 5. Poudre Fire Authority will review the site plan. They have concerns that you do not increase access problems with any development at this site. Emergency access is poor at this location. Acquiring an access easement with property to the north may possibly help matters. 6. Alterations to the building will have to be to current city building code. If the addition will be closer than 3' to the f adjacent property line the wall will have to be a fire wall construction with a parapet above the roofline. The building and any public restrooms are required to be handicapped accessible. 7. Contact the Transportation Division at 221-6608 to discuss what you need to provide them with, concerning the traffic analysis. They will be looking for trip generation and hours of operation information at the least. Include,on the site plan, information about driveways and curb cuts to the north and south of this property. 8. The City can not require it at this time, unless the traffic analysis shows that you are creating more traffic with the new use than what existed with the previous use, but we ask you to consider dedicating, on the plat, right-of-way on Shields Street for future widening of that street. The property to the north dedicated an additional 20' for widening. 9. In order to create a legal lot for this proposed use, you will be required to submit a plat, drawn up by a licensed/registered surveyor. You will also be required to submit a landscape/site plan showing the surrounding property, curb cuts, driveways, buildings, property lines, road right- of-way, and specific landscape improvements to the proposed parking lot. Please consult the Minor Subdivision handout for full details on the submittal requirements. 10. Please submit, with the plat, a list of names and addresses of 'property owners within 500' of the property. The City Planning Office will provide a map showing which properties shall be notified. The list should be typed and on mailing labels. 11. Any signs proposed for the new use shall meet the City Sign Code.
