City of Fort Collins March 23, 1993 Mr. Joe Frye Vaught - Frye Architects 1113 Stoney Hill Drive Fort Collins, CO 80525 Dear Joe: Staff has reviewed the request for East Vine Streets Amended Overall Development Plan, Lot One, Three, Four, Five, and Tract A Final P.U.D., and Plat. The following comments are offered: 1. On the plat, the width of the P.R.P.A. easement should be indicated. 2. On the plat, the approval block should not be for the Planning Department but rather the Planning and Zoning Board. 3. On the plat, the dedication statement is incomplete. 4. U.S. West has commented that not all telephone cables are shown on the drawings. Please contact John Hagge for further information. Also, U.S. West would like to redesign the cable entrance to coincide with new development. 5. The Public Service Company has commented that there is currently only one natural gas service line supplying buildings on this site. This service line feeds a multiple - - meter header located at the northeast corner of the existing building on Lot 2. Any proposed building additions t1fat— result in increased natural gas demand will require that separate natural gas service lines be installed to each building by PSCo. Utility easements will have to be provided on the plat for these service lines since the buildings are located on separate lots. 6. The sidewalk along Lemay should continue to the south property line, south of the driveway. For the portion of the sidewalk along Lemay that is outside the right-of-way,' an easement should be provided. Generally, a 15 foot wide easement is granted next to the right-of-way line of arterial streets for utilities and sidewalks. 7. The Engineering Department requires a Soils Report. 281 North Colle_e Avemie • P.O. 13ox 580 • Fort Collins. CO 805?2-0580 • (303) 221-0750 8. What is the status of the driveway cut on Linden Street adjacent to the railroad tracks? This driveway is indicated on both sheet one of four O.D.P. and sheet four of four, Final Site Plan for Lots 3, 4, and 5. There was discussion that this driveway would be eliminated at some time in the future. If so, a note should be added to both sheets indicating future closure of this driveway due to its proximity to East Vine Drive. 9. The Poudre Fire Authority requests that the western fire hydrant be moved an additional two feet from the building and protected from vehicular damage. 10. The design of the paint storage area must conform to both the Uniform Building Code and the Fire Code. il. If. the quantities of hazardous materials exceed the limits for long term hazardous materials management plan (see enclosed information), then a Hazardous Materials Impact Analysis may be required. 12. On sheets one of four and two of four, please correct the zoning designation from Planned Industrial to Industrial Park. 13. Please indicate the colors of the tube steel picket fence. 14. Please provide information on the sign along Lemay. The P.U.D. should indicate height, width, pedestal material, and source of illumination. This information will be the specification on which the sign permit will be issued. If a duplicate sign is already in existence, please tell us so we can take a look. 15. The P.U.D. should indicate that all perimeter pole mounted and building mounted light fixtures will be equipped with down directional luminaries to minimize light spillage, especially on the east. It is further recommended that security lighting be—h•igh—pressure sodium -lamps, not mercury vapor: —Light —and Power is encouraging h.p.s. due to energy efficiency and because it casts a softer illumination rather than the "bluish white" of mercury vapor. A specification sheet, if available, of the light fixtures would help evaluate the impacts of perimeter security lighting. 16. Because the P.U.D. is a City project, the City Forester has carefully reviewed the landscape plan. The comments are extensive and are attached as a separate enclosure. Discussion of these comments should be addressed to Tim Buchanan. 17. The approval block for the City Engineer is not needed on the Overall Development Plan, sheet one of four. 18. The ownership certificate on the O.D.P. should be titled "Owner" and the attest by the City Clerk should have a standard notarial block. 19. On sheet two of four, please label the landscaped area south of the new administration addition. 20. On sheet four of four, please indicate the surface treatment around the water man facility. Is this gravel or hard surface? If hard surface, directional arrows should be painted to channel traffic. 21. The architectural sheet should indicate the materials of the existing salt storage building. 22. Please indicate the color of the garage doors on the south elevation. 23. It is recommended that the four windows on the new construction on the east elevation be treated with arches that reflect the arches on the existing building's north elevation. 24. With the architectural sheet, and two landscape sheets, and the plat, the package totals eight sheets. However, the O.D.P. and the plat will be filed separately. Consequently, the O.D.P. should be labeled sheet one of one. The plat is already correctly labeled as sheet one of one. The P.U.D., with landscape and architectural sheets, should be labeled a series of six sheets. This will help after all the sheets are filed in their respective areas. This concludes Staff comments at this time.
