HomeMy WebLinkAboutSPRINGBROOK PUD PRELIMINARY AND FINAL - 7 90,A - CORRESPONDENCE - STAFF'S PROJECT COMMENTSDepartment March 23, 1990 Dick Rutherford Stewart and Associates 214 N. Howes Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Dick Staff has reviewed the Springbrook PUD Final Plan and has the following comments to make: There is an existing gas line in West. Drake Road that needs to be replaced/upgraded. Due to the extensive landscaping proposed between curb and sidewalk and in the utility easement adjoining the south line of Drake Road, it will be necessary to construct this gas line replacement in the paved portion of Drake Road. It is desirable to coordinate this gas line replacement with either the City's planned 1990 overlay of Drake Road or the Choices '95 major reconstruction of Drake. A utility coordi- nation meeting may be necessary to resolve any utility conflicts. 2. Landscaping along Drake Road needs to follow the established clearances for the Light and Power Utility (see attached). Since there is a Homeowners' Association planned, the City will not maintain the landscaping in the area between the curb and sidewalk on Drake Road. The note on the landscape plan needs to be changed to reflect this. The floodplain and floodway need to be delineated on the plat and grading plan: 5. Springbrook Lane design needs to include design of culverts and inlets for street drainage, to meet overtopping criteria. A HEC-2 run is required to verify "no rise". 6. Erosion control must be addressed. A construction erosion control plan, as well as permanent erosion control design needs to be provided. 7. Off -site drainage basin delineation is needed. 8. Additional comments are on the red -lined drainage report and construction plans. Please return all red -lines with the resubmittal of plans. 300 LaPorte Avenue • P.O. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 Any landscaping proposed in the floodway must not exceed the roughness cV coefficient used in the Master Plan HEC-2 run. 1IThe Drake Road sidewalk needs to be shifted to the back of the right -of - ( way, to provide a 10' parkway. 11. A soils report is required at the time of preliminary submittal and to date, has not been submitted. 12. A condition of approval being recommended with the preliminary plan is that the applicant secure approval from the property owner(s) to the east (Georgetown PUD) to close the existing, western -most Georgetown access on Drake Road and provide for this access to line-up with Springbrook Court. The elevations of Springbrook. Lane need to be verified to determine if Springbrook Lane can be built as close to Georgetown as is proposed. A temporary turnaround on the end of Springbrook Lane will be required if the Georgetown driveway cannot line-up with Springbrook Court. ✓ building envelopes are platted on the subdivision plat, any change to the - building envelope would require a replat. The best way to handle building envelopes is by showing them on the site plan. Since this is a PUD, a final site plan must be submitted, with all necessary final site plan data Zown. 4If the proposed duplex units are marketed and sold as attached, single- family units, then construction must comply with applicable building codes. . Parking for the duplex lots needs to be addressed. City Code requires that lots with less than 40' of frontage have two off-street parking spaces. Since building envelopes have not been submitted to date, there is no way to determine whether garages are being provided, or if this is being addressed. -1 lk' The landscape plan should show the floodway line, as well as all restric- tions regarding construction, fencing and landscaping within the floodway. V note on the landscape plan indicates that rock mulch would be used in planting beds. Staff would recommend against the use of rock mulch in planting areas along Drake Road, since rock often ends up in the street., t . The landscape plan shows a material labelled "CS", but there is no material 18on the plant list indicating such a material. Please clarify. 1 . A condition of preliminary plan approval is that the final landscape plan provide riparian plant materials that enhance Tract B, while not affecting flood flows. This needs to be addressed on the landscape plan. J20/At a minimum, one shade tree should be provided for each lot. 7X Other conditions of preliminary approval regarding Lots 21-24 are being 1/ recommended by staff. Conditions regarding plot plan and grading plans being submitted at the time of building permit application; the requirement for a post construction elevation certificate for the finished floor elevation and the final lot elevation; and deed restrictions regrading fencing, landscaping and construction restrictions need to be addressed. 2/2. Additional requirements may be made of this final plan; pending the V Planning and Zoning Board review on Monday, March 26. By Wednesday, April 4, 1990 five (5) copies of the revised plat, landscape plan and any other information necessary to address these comments must be sub- mitted. By noon on Monday, April 30, 1990 ten (10) folded copies of the plat, site/landscape plan, a colored rendering of the site plan and an 8-1/2" x 11" PMT (xerox copies unacceptable) must be submitted.
