Dear Brian:

and Environmentalorvices
The Planning Department has coordinated the comments by the various
City Departments and utility agencies regarding the request for the
one lot Padia Subdivision. The following comments are offered:
1. A legal lot must have a minimum of 20 feet of frontage along
a publicly dedicated street. It appears that the lot does not
have proper frontage on Hemlock Street. An adjustment should
be made to create a "pole" for a "flagpole" lot. As shown,
there does not appear to be legally dedicated access to the
lot.
2. Please investigate whether or not Hemlock has 80 feet of
dedicated right-of-way. This amount of right-of-way
substantially exceeds the standard for a local street.
3. The only fire hydrant capable of providing fire flow is near
the west end of Hickory Street. An access easement must be
provided from the west end of Hickory Street to serve Lot 1.
The size of the storage building may be limited by the
available water supply. Please contact Warren Jones, Poudre
Fire Authority, 221-6570, if there are any questions regarding
the Fire Code requirements.
4. The Stormwater Utility has forwarded sheet 11 of 12 from the
Dry Creek Master Plan. The owner should be aware of the
channel diversion project shown on sheet 11.
5. Presently the site is in the Old Town Drainage Basin which has
not stormwater basin fee. A new basin is under study,
however, called the Poudre River Basin. This new basin will
likely have stormwater fees associated with development once
the basin is adopted by City Council.
6. Since the Padia residence is not a part of the plat, it is
assumed that the proposed equipment and vehicle storage
building will be the principal use on Lot 1. As a principal
use (versus an accessory use), the building must be
floodproofed or elevated properly above the base flood
elevation.

7. A standard Drainage, Grading, and Erosion Control Report will
be needed. Please be aware that an offsite drainage easement.
may be an issue.
8. The 100-year floodplain must be shown on the plat with water
surface elevations, and source and date of the information.
9. Onsite detention may be required unless the 100-year runoff is
conveyed to the river- via the properly dedicated easements.
10. If the proposed structure is in the floodplain, a Floodplain
Use Permit is required prior to issuance of a building permit
and an elevation certificate is required prior to Certificate
of Occupancy.
11. It is not clear if this plat represents a replat of a portion
of those lots affected lots in Block 25. The dashed lines
indicate that those affected lots are being replatted. Is
this the case?
12. The legal description is incomplete, and please add the
control monuments to the basis of bearing.
13. Add "Plat Of" to the title.
14. If the developer desires to serve Lot 1 with natural gas, then
a utility easement must be provided from Hickory Street .
15. If the developer desires to serve Lot 1 with water and sewer
service, then the appropriate easements must also be provided.
1.6. In the approval block for the Planning Director, please delete.
"AS TO FORM".
This concludes Staff comments at this time. It is suggested that
three prints of a revised plat be re -submitted for further review.
After review of the revised plat, and if all outstanding issues are
resolved, the administrative hearing will be scheduled in
accordance with the legal requirements for public notification. If
you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call our office
at 221-6750.
