Expansion 1 Construction noise? • Construction will generate noise but operations will adhere to City of Fort Collins permitted construction hours. 2 What is the proposed height of the expansion versus the existing building height? • Proposed building height is approximately 32 feet. It was estimated the existing building height was slightly more than 25 feet. • Trees on the berm will assist with screening the height and mass of the expansion. 3 What is the height of the berm? • Berm height is approximately 4'-6" with a high density of plantings to assist with screening from the adjacent residential properties. 4 Little noise is heard during events which are currently held on the east side of the building. Will the events remain on the east side? • Currently, the plan is to keep events such as the Small Batch Festival on the east side. Bands and the public patio space will remain as they are today. 5 Generally, it was voiced on several different occasions that the proposed building looked very nice and is welcomed. 6 What types of plant material is to be used on the berms? • Plant material that provided a high level of opacity — evergreen trees and low branching shrubs; many of the plants will be xeric in nature. 7 During brewing events there is an increase of bike traffic on 3rd Street, not necessarily a negative but is there an opportunity to provide an off-street walk/bike connection between Odell's and New Belgium? • Owner and design team agreed that is a good idea and worth studying in more detail. 8 What's planned in the future for the north property? • Odell's has purchased the land as a long-term investment • Site currently restricted by large amounts of lime tailings. 9 Will hours of operation change for the Brewery? • No. Hours will remain the same. 10 What is the general truck traffic pattern? • Generally, the semi -trailer trucks arrive from the east on Lincoln. • Wholesale trucks leave/arrive in both directions for local deliveries. 11 Some concerns were voiced regarding noises generated with the main entrance on the south and with the future Phase-2 expansion with a potential new patio on the southwest corner. 12 General discussion regarding ROW improvements on Lincoln • A sidewalk the full length of Lincoln is desired by the neighborhood • Existing storm drainage swale may need some additional irrigation for the interim but likely not much will be improved until the ultimate ROW build out is defined. • Side topic: Extension of downtown character through the use of diagonal parking. 13 Can screening be provided around the truck turn -around area? • BHA to look at additional screening with plant material suitable for lime tailings. • Design team pointed out that the truck turn -around area would be 'carved' into the side of the lime tailing berm. Therefore, much of the operations would be hidden from the west and northwest. Statement of Planning Objectives — Neighborhood Meeting Notes Page 1 of 1
