IF IT IS A CONCEPTUAL - DESIGN THEN GHOST IT OUT OR LABEL IT AS FOR INFORMATION ONLY. Department: Zoning Topic: zoning Issue Contact: Peter Barnes 2 REPEAT COMMENT: No new narative was submitted with this 2nd round, so it's still unclear as to what they mean by "security fence" on the PDP site plan. It must comply with 3.8.11(13), so they should clarify on the site plan with a note or detail describing what they mean by "security fence". Original comment: Their narative states that there will.be an 8'tall security fence to tie in with the existing. Will the fence have barbed wire? If it does, then theyll have to comply with the standards in 3.8.11(B). Please return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit. If you have any questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project, please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750. Sincerely, TED SHEPARD Chief Planner Page 4
