Dear Dick:
Staff has reviewed the request for Preliminary and Final P.U.D. for
A Big A Storage. The following comments are offered:
1. In a recent conversation with Mr. Watterson, it was expressed
that the project is to be constructed in distinct phases.
This will require two separate documents or plan sheets.
First, we need a Preliminary P.U.D. that clearly describes
each phase and covers the entire property. Second, we need a
Final P.U.D. for Phase One. Each plan will require its own
Site Data Table.
2. The overall Preliminary P.U.D. must designate a land use for
each phase. No phase can be left undecided since the
Preliminary establishes the anticipated land use for the
parcel. If outside storage is to be included as a future land
use, it must be designated, along with the indication that
there will be solid fencing to screen the area. It may be
possible to combine the Preliminary Site Plan and Landscape
Plan on one sheet since a Preliminary Landscape Plan does not
require a detailed planting schedule.
3. As mentioned at Conceptual Review, the outside storage area
must be situated so that it does not block fire access to the
westerly mini -storage building.
4. Is the developer beginning the process of applying to the
State Department of Transportation regarding the State Highway
Access Permit? This process can be coordinated with Kerrie
Ashbeck, Civil Engineer, assigned to the Planning Department.
This requirement was mentioned at Conceptual Review.
5. The Preliminary P.U.D. should indicate the route to the
College and Rutgers intersection and label the internal access
drives as such. :therwise, it is difficult to realize that
this site gains access from the public streets via the College
Avenue and Rutgers intersection.
281 North College Avenue • P.O. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750
6. Both the Preliminary and Final P.U.D. should indicate whether
the office will also serve as a residential unit for the
onsite manager. If there is no residential unit, the P.U.D.
should state "office only".
7. The Final site plan should indicate the location of the
electrical transformer. Also, easements may have to be
dedicated to get electrical power to the transformer.
8. A Soils Report still needs to be submitted.
9. Design calculations must be submitted for the retaining wall.
10. The developer is allowed to have building mounted wall
signage. This signage must not be located on the roof. If
wall signage is desired, it must appear on the elevation
sheet.
11. The site is not allowed to have a free-standing sign. If the
applicant receives a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals
allowing a free-standing sign, then the location, size,
dimensions, height, and other details of the sign must appear
on the Final P.U.D. document. Staff will review any request
for free-standing signage for design details but the final
decision allowing a sign rests with the Z.B.A. Since the
P.U.D. .is the document on which the sign permits are issued,
please add the following note to the Final site plan:
"All signage on this P.U.D. is restricted to the number,
type, location, and size as specifically noted on the
P.U.D. Any changes or deviations shall be reviewed, in
advance, by the City of Fort Collins by the
Administrative Review procedure, including, at the
Planning Director's discretion, referral to the Planning
and Zoning Board."
12. If the Z.B.A. allows a free-standing sign, the Planning Staff
will recommend that this sign be a monument sign, not a pole
sign, with a height not to exceed 12 feet. These design
considerations are based on the fact that the nature of the
business is to not capture impulse traffic but rather to have
a need for location identification within the shopping center.
13. Note Number 5 on the site plan should state that the chainlink
fence is to be "vinyl -clad".
14. Landscape materials should wrap around the north side of the
office building, not just the east side.
15. The landscape plan does not indicate the surface treatment of
the non -asphalt areas. Also, the four trees on the west must
be irrigated for establishment.
16. It is strongly suggested that landscape materials be placed. on
the east side of the easterly mini -storage building to break
up the long expanse of building facade. (Such materials are
indicated on the architectural elevation sheet.)
17. The architectural elevation sheet should be labeled sheet
three of three. A scale of the drawing should be provided.
The materials and colors should be stated as well as the
building height. (Sheets one and two must be re -labeled as
being part of a set of three.)
18. It is suggested that the east elevation of the easterly mini -
storage building feature masonry that is ribbed, scored, or
split -faced, rather than the typical smooth -faced block. The
brochure brought to Conceptual Review (Varco-Pruden Buildings)
shows a mauve colored split -faced block that looks attractive
and would enhance the entry of the project.
19. The submittal did not include the completed Auto Related and
Roadside Commercial Point Chart. Please complete this chart
as required.
This concludes Staff comments at this time. In order to remain on
schedule for the October 25, 1993 Planning and Zoning Board
hearing, please note the following deadlines:
Plan revisions are due October 7, 1993.
P.M.T.'s, 10 prints, renderings are due October 18, 1993.
Please note that P.M.T.'s generally must be ordered up to two days
in advance prior to this deadline. It is imperative that P.M.T.Is,
and the colored rendering be submitted no later than October 18,
1993. Otherwise, the Planning and Zoning Board does not have the
benefit of reviewing these documents at the worksession. Not
having these documents in a timely manner works to the disadvantage
of the applicant.
As always, please call if there are any questions or concerns
regarding these comments.

Ted Shepard

Dear Mr. Frink:
Staff has reviewed the proposed addition to the Rank Center Square for the
Kelly -Moore wholesale distribution operation and offers the following com-
ments:
1. The extent and detai 1s of the utility plan must he discussed. The
City requires that an engineer prepare elevations, dimensions, plans,
profi les, and detai is of all proposed uti lity additions.
7. The site plan should show the dimensions of the parking aisles, park-
ing spaces, and curve radii. Also, show where the proposed improve-
ments will join the existing improvements,
3. A grading plan wi 11 be required. Please show existing and proposed
contours.
4. If the existing driveway entrance is being redone, a State Highway
Access Permit will be required.
5. The proposed contours do not clearly indicate what the site drainage
wi 11 do. It is suggested that additional spot elevations he used or
add a couple of one oot contours, especially around the i s lands.
6. The existing asphalt swa le on the south side of the bui ](ling wi 11 he
cut off by the parking lot island along r'nllegP. How wi 11 this he
handled and what is the rate and depth of f lo�q?
7. A drainage study must be ;uhmitted addressing the folln,;rirq
a. Onsite detention is required to retain the inn -year r';nnff and
reiease at the two year historic (befnre improvement) rate,
b. Are there any offsite flows crossing the site?

c. The detention release is to he discharged into the 30 inch storm
sewer in College Avenue.
d. The high water level of the detention area must be shown.
8. The irrigation company will have to approve the landscaping and any
grading modifications to the Sherwood Ditch.
9. A sanitary sewer runs along the west side of the existing bui ldi ng.
The proposed addition will be close to the sewer if it is built as
planned. The sewer and distance from the addition must be shown on
the final plan submittal.
10. The City Forester has requested that the two American Plums at the
entry be changed to Chokecherry (Prunis Mackii) at 1 3/a caliper
balled and burlap. This change is to gain better vertical perspec-
tive.
11. There must be a landscaped island at each end of the row of parking on
the north. Also, the site plan must show motorcycle parking and a
bicycle parking rack.
12. Fire code requirements will be assessed at building permit stage.
13. A wholesale paint operation may pose environmental problems due to
contaminated water runoff into the Sherwood Ditch from fire fighting.
Some type of containment should be built into the site design.
This concludes staff comments at this time. To keep this request on
schedule for the May 18, 1987 Planning and Zoning Board, please note the
following deadlines:
Plan revisions are due April 30, 1987
PMT's and colored renderings and final prints are due May 11, 1987
Final documents are due May 14, 1987
