CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS
MEETING DATE: August 6, 1990
ITEM: Overland Hills, Second Filing
APPLICANT: Fredric J. Hattman, Gefroh-Hattman Inc., 135 West Swallow
Road, Fort Collins CO. 80525
LAND USE DATA: Request for a Four Lot Subdivision on 9.19 acres.
COMMENTS:
1. This property is currently zoned R-L-P and the request is a "use -by- right"
in accordance with the Zoning Regulations for the City of Fort Collins. It
may be submitted and reviewed as a Minor Subdivision.
2. The property is located west of the existing Platte Drive, east of .proposed
Overland Trail extension, and is south of and adjacent to the Horsetooth
Road extension.
3. This property is served by the Fort Collins -Loveland Water District. If and
when Horsetooth Road is extended to the west the City will want to
extend a 20" waterline to Overland Trail extension and continue that line
south along the extension.
4. Sanitary service will be provided by on -site septic systems. The
requirements for these systems would be regulated by Larimer County. The
City will require a firm commitment to the ability to serve this
development with septic systems prior to review of any request.
5. There is a single "point of access" to this site for fire and emergency
protection. That point is at the intersection of West Horsetooth Road and
_Platte Drive. Lots 1, 3, and 4 are in excess of the 660' maximum distance
for fire protection; therefore, automatic—sprinkler—systems—w-ill—be—required
in these homes when they are constructed. Lot 2 does fall within the
maximum distance; however, placement of the house and development of
this lot will determine the ability to provide emergency service.
6. The plat should extend west to the centerline of the Overland Trail
extension at this time. The area outside of the defined lots could be
platted as a tract, parcel, easement, or open space but not likely as
residential lots. Access will not be permitted from Overland Trail. Please
consider the future limitations of this area due to the access restriction.
7. It will be the responsibility of the developer to construct the local street
portion of both West Horsetooth Road and Overland Trail extensions along
their street Crontage. Also, the bridge required to cross Spring Creck on
West Horsetooth will be the responsibility of the developer.

8. The standard street oversizing fee of $584/unit will be assessed at the time
of issuance of building permits.
9. A drainage report and grading plan will be required. Erosion control will
be necessary during construction. An on -site drainage/detention facility will
become the responsibility of the City for maintenance.
10. The drainage master plan for Spring Creek extends north only to the
intersection of West Horsetooth Road; therefore, the upstream flows from
Spring Creek Dam will need to be verified. There is not a clear drainage
channel for Spring Creek on the property to the north. This situation will
need to be investigated.
11. Electric service is presently along the north side of West Horsetooth Road
as far as Platte Drive. When that street is extended Light & Power would
extend their service as well. The City would like to work with the
developer to create a permanent alignment for power now, enabling that
service to be undergrounded at the time of development, rather than
having to provide temporary overhead service.
12. The charges for electric power will be based on lot size and, since -these
lots are larger than standard lots, the charge will be approximately
$1,000/acre.
13. A bicycle/pedestrian trail easement will be dedicated along Spring Creek <to
be in conformance with the adopted City of Fort Collins Parks and
Recreation Master Plan.
14. The parcel of ground between Spring Creek and the Overland Trail
extension alignment could possibly be identified as a part of the City's
Open Space system.
15. There will be a Parkland Fee of $625/unit for residential development, to
be assessed at the time of issuance of building permits.
16. A 15' utility easement outside of the ROW along the east side of Overland
Trail Extension will be required.
