HomeMy WebLinkAboutANHEUSER-BUSCH INC - Filed GC-GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE - 2003-05-27SUPERBLOCK CONCEPT ANHEUSER-BUSCH PUD While the "superblock" concept has been successfully used in other parts of Fort Collins, the actual process and requirements for preparation and review of this type of plan is new. The purpose of the following is to propose a form for the plan and a process by which the plan would be reviewed and approved by the City of Fort Collins. This report is for discussion pruposes between the City and the applicant. The finalized form should be included as part of the Anheuser-Busch Master Plan documents. Procedure Per zoning requirements, any parcel of land within the Master Plan area will be developed as a planned unit development. Within the Master Plan area, large tracts of property, known as "superblocks" have been designated. Before any plat, site plan or building permit is considered for one parcel of land within those "superbloc:ks", a "superblock plan" will need to be submitted to the City for approval in accordance with the procedures and plan content requirements contained herein. The level of information and detail required of a "superblock plan" should fall between the general plan level of a Master Plan and the specific plan level of the preliminary plan. The purpose of the superblock plan is to define certain transportation, design and land use parameters from which detailed preliminary plans will be developed. This document will also assist the City in making informed decisions in its long term transportation and capital improvement plans and programming for the area and community. The superblock plan should be reviewed and approved by the Planning and Zoning Board following the same review steps as required for Master Plans (concept review; filing of application; staff review and recommendation; public hearing; decision; if necessary, appeal to City Coun- cil). A first phase preliminary plan should be submitted and approved concur- rently with the submission and approval of a superblock plan. There should be no expiration date for superblock plans. The superblock will be reviewed on the basis of -its conformance with the Comprehensive Plan, and other sound planning and transportation principles rather than against the specific cri- teria of the planned unit development regulations. Minor changes to a super - block plan may be made by the Planning Director according to the criteria for minor amendments to Master Plans contained within the LDGS. Any major changes may be made only by the Planning and Zoning Board. Content of a Superblock The following information shall be submitted for a superblock plan unless the Planning Director determines the information is unnecessary for the purpose of evaluating the development. A. Application form and filing fee ($60.00). B. Twenty (20) copies of the superblock plan at an appropriate scale with the size of the development shall be submitted containing the following information: MAR-15-94 TUE 15:11 KK FERGUSON ST.LOUIS FAX NO. 3145390419 P.02 ENGINEERS AND CONSTRUCTORS (� } MORRISON KNUDSEN CORPORATION (5 MK-FERGUSON GROUP D00 WALNUT STREET GUITR 230 ST LOUIS.

There will not be any significant additional net flow into the city stormwater drainage sys(CuI. The 18'x38' (684 f6) area of the new tank enclosure will increase the flow rate due to the higl)o r runoff coefficient of the new roof. However, this will be offset by the new truck loadout arl•u 12'x50' (600 %t) which will now drain into an existing process sewer drain. Should you require any further clarification, don't hesitate to call. Sincerely, MORRISON KNUDSEN CORPORATION J Robert G. golf, P.E. TIMOTHY J. DOW, MBA, JD PATRICIA T.

Although this meeting did not specifically involve the Phase I and II plant expansion it was mentioned and briefly discussed. I do not believe that this project was submitted to the ditch company for review and input. We believe that any further development of the A-B grounds north of the ditch would have some developed surface water runoff impact. It would be appreciated very much if you would see that the portions of this project that involve the surface water runoff issue be submitted so that we may review the same. I thank you in advance for your help in this regard. Yours very truly, MS/hb PC: Donn Engel, LWIC Paul Czarnecki, Anheuser-Busch Glen Schleuter, Storm Water Utilities Water Ut ies Stormwatei CAN, of Fort Collin October 4, 2000 Paul Czarnecki Anheuser-Busch 2351 Busch Drive P.O. Box 20000 Fort Collins, CO 80522-2501 Dear Mr. Czarnecki: This letter is to confirm that a drainage and erosion control report was submitted to the Fort Collins Utilities — Stormwater that included the most recent Phase I and II plant expansion. The review team found the proposed system to meet present stormwater criteria. The Citv's new rainfall criteria was used on site to size facilities without modifications to the outfall into the Larimer & Weld Irrigation Company's ditch. The Stormwater Masterplanning staff looks forward to working with you on the upcoming drainage masterplanning effort for the Boxelder and Cooper Slough drainage basins. This effort will probably take a year or more to complete but there may be opportunities for both Anheuser — Busch and the City to participate in facilities that benefit both entities. Another key player in that study is the Larimer and Weld Irrigation Company which has requested the City submit to them the "portions of this project" (Phase 1 & II) "that involve the surface water runoff issue". To assist in this it would be helpful if there is an indication on the building permit application to indicate that the application is part of the already accepted Phase I & 11 report. Thanks for your assistance. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Glen D.

Arnold, City Manager FROM: Thomas E. Hays, City Engineer_? '" BE: A-B Meeting —Roads Below is; a discussion of the responsibilities for DESIGN, CONSIRUM'ION, and FINANCING of the perimeter roads, the interchange, and the frontage roads as I understand the Master Agreement. Design and Construction: Article IV, paragraph 2, states "City shall be solely responsible for the procurement of all engineering, architectural, survey and contracting services, easements permits, rights -of_ -way, land acquisition, required approvals, materials and supplies necessary for the completion of the road improvements described in this Article." In undertaking this obligation on the part of the City, it is my opinion that we are required to, and should, follow existing City policies on the selection of a consultant and advertising and awarding of a bid for the construction work. Financing: Article VII, paragraph l,a),(i),(2), clearly makes the perimeter roads subject to the Supplemental User Fee. The City has the obligation to finance the perimeter roads with the ultimate cost being to A-B through their tax increment. Design: The master agreement makes no mention of any party's responsibility for design of the interchange and/or frontage roads. Absent this mention, and in view of A-B's action in retaining the services of UPS Engineers to undertake preliminary design studies, it is clear that the intent has been for A-B to have responsibility for desi n of the interchange and frontage roads. g A-B Meeting —Roads July 11, 1983 Page Two Construction: Similarly, there is no mention of responsibility for contracting for construction of the interchange or frontage roads in the master agreement. It is my understanding that this was left undetermined because of the possiblity that the State Highway Department would be the contracting agent. It was never contemplated that the City would have this responsibility. Financings: The master agreement makes reference to the funding of the interchange and frontage road in Article VII, paragraph l,a),(ii), referencing the Supplemental User Fee "...to the extent of City's contribution for design and construction of such improvements." The extent of the City's contribution has not been specifically defined except by inference. The State Highway Commission has committed to a contribution not to exceed $1,700,000 toward the interchange only. The County CoTwd ssioners have committed to a contribution of 10% of the tax increment or $1,250,000 whichever is less, including but not limited to, the interchange and frontage roads. Of the remaining funds required to construct the interchange and frontage roads, it seems to me that the City is only obligated to contribute the difference between any monies spent to meet the contractural obligations of the City to A-B and the "Credits" due to A-B under the Supplemental Fee formula. In some years there may not be any monies available for this purpose. SLAM 1. The City has a contractural obligation to design and construct the perimeter. roads. 2. It appears that the City never contemplated a contractural responsibility for the design and construction of the interchange and frontage roads. 3. It was contemplated that the City would contribute to the design and construction of the interchange and frontage road. 4. The extent of the City's obligation to contribute may be limited by the language of the master agreement referencing the Supplemental User Fee„ vEMORANDP ,j DATE: November 25, 1383 TO: Roger E. Krempel, Director of Public Works FROM: Tom Hays, City Engineer7� RE: Anheuser-Busch Roads and Utilities In response to the meeting with Curt Smith, Mauri Rupel, Bonni Tripoli, Jim Harmon, and yourself, I have put together my understanding of the points that were discussed at that meeting. ROADS Engineering Services is responsible for the design of the perimeter roads on the north, west, and south sides of section 33 which includes the plant site. This design cannot commence until the City receives notice to proceed from AB under the terms of the master agreement. The master agreement specifies that the perimeter roads shall be 44 feet wide. The roads shall consist of two 12 foot travel lanes and two 10 foot shoulders. The roads can be widened to full arterial standards as adjacent developement takes place. Although the design of the frontage road on the east side of the plant was originally conceived of as being done with the Interchange, the agreement with the State Highway Department includes only the Interchange. Therefore, the design and construction of the frontage road will be integrated with the perimeter roads. This will not affect the schedule or the funding of the perimeter roads. UTILITIES Planning has requested that a map be prepared that would show the general alignments of utilities to serve the site. Jim Hoff will be preparing such a map. t Roger E. Krempel November 25, 1983 Page Two DRAINAGE We discussed the general plan for drainage from the plant site and the other AB property. Curt requested that Roger contact Ward Fischer to discuss making contacts with the affected ditch company.

John had been told by Dave Stringer, City of Fort Collins, that the size of the water line was supposed to be sixteen (16) inches. I told Mike Herzig of my discussion with John Hathaway and indicated that I thought the size and routing problems had all been resolved through our dealings with Rich Shannon. M:ke said he also thought the twelve (12) inch size was agreed upon, but that they needed to see drawings of the routings and locations of valves, bends, and thrust blocks. I told him that we had sent a plan drawing to Building Inspection showing the routing. He indicated that utility improvements were a separate entity and need to go through his department. I explained the front end work done with Rich Shannon and Tim Sagan regarding the routing and separations, etc. Mike indicated that he still needed to review the design prior to approval. He also indicated that we needed to apply for curb cut permits for the two (2) driveways. I told him that I thought that was all included in the original permitting and that no one ever mentioned we needed to submit drawings or additional permits other than the arduous procedure we had already followed in obtaining the building permits.
