Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS MEETING DATE: April 9, 1990 ITEM: Prospect Park East, Lots 1,2, 13 - 16 APPLICANT: W.W. Reynolds Company, c/o Eldon Ward, Cityscape Urban Design, 3030 South College Ave., Suite 200, Fort Collins, CO. 80525. LAND USE DATA: Request for P.U.D. for two buildings totalling 89,600 square feet on approximately 7.5 acres, located at the southeast corner of East Prospect Road and Specht Point Road. COMMENTS: 1. The City Light and Power Department has three phase electrical power available on all sides except Prospect Road. Please be aware that there is a buried electrical duct bank along the Prospect Road frontage. 2. According to Light and Power Department records, the first half of the development charges have already been paid on this property. This payment was $20,560 made in November of 1984. The second half is due before the system is energized. 3, Any modifications or alterations to existing Light and Power facilities will be at the developer's expense. 4. Water mains are available all around the site. There are a combination of water services and fire lines available to the site. Any combination of taps may be used for water service or irrigation. Any services not used must be abandoned at the main. 5. The sewer main presents a unique problem. There must be adequate clearance for the sewer main that bisects the property from Prospect Parkway to Specht Point Road, Although the Water Department typically requires a 20 foot easement for a sewer line, this distance must be sufficient to use equipment, store dirt, and do whatever is necessary to repair a busted line. All this must be accomplished without damaging foundations for which the City could be liable. Please verify the depth of this line. If it is somewhat shallow, 20 feet may work. If it is deep; 20 feet may not. work. 6. The site is in an area classified by F.E.M.A. as 'overflow". This means that first floor elevations must be 18 inches above the height of the base flood elevation. The Drainage Report must account for offsite flows. Plant material may be allowed in the drainage channels but should not be massive so that they restrict storm flows. 7. Sidewalks, curbs, and gutters must be installed along all frontages. Since there is an existing utility plan, this plan may either be revised or a new plan submitted. Such plan shall show water and sewer modifications, sidewalks, driveway modifications, street patches, or overlays. 8. The replat will be very simple to review if accompanied by a P.U.D. Be sure to use appropriate language to vacate unused easements. All new easements must be dedicated. 9. The Poudre Fire Authority cautions that any floor areas containing more than 5,000 square feet must be equipped with a fire sprinkler system. When determining fire access, Prospect koad cannot be used as this is an arterial street. The parking lot may be used for access if there are the minimum required turning radii for fire equipment. Since "flex space" may be subject to change due to tenant demands, it is suggested that the buildings be equipped with fire sprinklers at the time of construction. 10. The site plan should indicate bicycle, motorcycle, and handicap parking. 11. The interior parking areas should be landscaped with approximately 6% of the total paved area. 12. Please confirm with Matt Bakery City Engineer, at 221-6605 regarding the classification for the Street Oversizing Fee. 13. Any combined preliminary and final P.U.D. submittal must be accompanied by a complete set of plans satisfying the requirements of both the Planning and Engineering departments. Failure to supply complete plans may result in splitting the submittal and placing only the preliminary on the hearing until final plans have been submitted and reviewed.
