CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS
August 5, 1992
Mr. Brian Shear -
Shear Engineering
4836 South College Avenue
Fort Collins, CO. 80525
MEETING DATE: July 27, 1992
ITEM: Padia Property, "Riverside Park", Minor Sub
APPLICANT: Padia Fertilizer Co., c/o Mr. Brian Shear, Shear
Engineering,. 4836 South College Avenue, Fort Collins, CO. 80525
LAND USE DATA: Request to create a one lot subdivision for
purposes of creating a legal lot for a vehicle and equipment
storage building. A building permit will not be issued until the
area is platted as a legal lot. The area is a portion Block 25 of
an old plat referred to as "Riverside Park", parts of which have
been vacated. The property is between Hickory and Hemlock.
COMMENTS:
1. The overhead electrical line is .required to be placed
underground unless it exceeds 69 Kv. Please verify with the City
of Fort Collins Light and Power Department on the exact voltage of
this line and whether it is eligible to be exempt from the
underground requirement.
2. There are no water or sewer lines in the immediate area to
serve the site. The closest water is on Hemlock Street and ends at
the railroad tracks. The nearest sewer line is on Hickory Street.
Water would have to be brought to the site in order to have water
supply capacity to serve the proposed building.
3. The proposed building must meet the City's Building Code and
Fire Code in order to approved for a building permit, regardless of
the creation of a legally platted lot. The building must be within
400 feet of a fire hydrant or be equipped with an automatic fire
extinguishing system. If there is no water supply for a hydrant or
sprinkler system, then the building permit request will be denied
by the Poudre Fire Authority.
4. The location of the floodplain must be indicated on the plat.
If the proposed building is located in the flood fringe, then the
finish floor must be elevated a minimum of 18 inches above the base
flood elevation. If the building is located in the floodplain,
then it must be demonstrated that there is no rise in the base
flood elevation as a result of the building.
5. A Drainage Report, Drainage and Grading Plan, and Erosion
Control Plan will be required. There are no storm drainage fees
for this site. Please address water quality issues and how the
Poudre. River is protected from stormwater runoff associated with
the piles of fertilizer.
6. The Department of Natural Resources needs to see the
relationship between the proposed building and the Poudre River.
An onsite meeting is recommended. Please coordinate with Rob
Wilkinson to set up date and time to inspect the site.
7. There will be a Street Oversizing Fee associated with the new
building. Please call Matt Baker, 221-6605, for details as to how
the proposed building will be assessed.
8. Please address the relationship between the site and the Fort
Collins bypass alignment. The bypass is an unfunded project of the
State Department of Highways.
9. Part of the platting process may trigger the dedication of
right-of-way for Hickory Street to reach the full 54 foot wide
standard local street.
10. There are a variety of issues associated with platting this
property. The Planning Staff is reluctant to accept an application
for an administrative review for subdivision of land for which a
building permit cannot be issued. if it can be demonstrated that
the issues are resolved, then an application for a one lot
subdivision may be accepted.
