This section of U.S. 287 is now a Category 4 highway. Your proposed project, the Burger King at Country Club Corners, was given approval by the Planning and Zoning Board with a condition that an access permit be granted by the State Department of Transportation. The City of Fort Collins Engineering Department can file for an access permit when you are ready to proceed. Because of the category change there should not be a problem granting access at that location. Please contact Mike Herzig, at 221-6750, for more information. Before any building permits can be issued, the Overall Development Plan, plat, site and landscape plans, utility plans, and development agreement will have to be signed and filed. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Sincerely, Kirsten Whetstone City Planner cc Mike Herzig Ric Hattman 281 \orth Colle-c Avenue • P.O.

On March 28th I gave you a status report on plan review for the proposed Albertsons on North College. The Utility plans (public improvements) were late in being submitted by the developer's engineer. Albertsons needed to complete their plan review and approval by May 1st to keep on their desired schedule. The plans were :submitted on April 4th, a week and a half after their promised date. On April 6th we were told by their engineer that the plans submitted were incorrect and more revisions were needed for storm drainage, which would change all of their drainage calculations. The changes in pipe sizes will also affect some street design. We discussed the problem with Steve Parry, the developer's project manager. After several conversations with Steve and his engineer, we decided that we would not review the plan: submitted. We would help them out by holding their place in line for plan review until April 17th, our estimated date that we would start looking at their plans. If' they do not make the April 17th deadline, we will have to discuss options. They believe they can make the deadline. Steve Parry understands the problem and that: May 1st is not realistic. We appreciate their having told us the plans were incomplete before we wasted time checking. It looks like at least 5 more weeks before they could start. We will continue to help them as best we can and keep you informed on the status. Mike End of Item 6. HPDesk Local Print for Mike HERZIG Start of Item 6. Message. Dated: 04/24/95 at 1438.

In my last status report of April 10th, the consultant for the proposed Albertsons on North College was supposed to submit revised utility by April 17th for our review. That date came and went without plans submitted. I talked to Steve Parry, the developers project manager, to find out what was happening. He said that the revisions were complex and were taking longer to finish. He said a submittal would be made on April 20th. A two page letter was submitted by the consultant to Stormwater Department. However, the letter was not enough information to review. So, we are still waiting for some plans to review. Again we will help them all we can to get through the system when the "ball is in our court." Steve Parry mentioned that his boss, Dan Yacaveta, would be meeting with Mayor Azari on Tuesday, April 25th, at 2:00 p.m. and he invited me to attend. I told him we would discuss it here and decide who from City staff should attend. We will keep you informed. Mike End of Item 6. Comm ity Planning and Environmenta Current Planning ervices `'w City of Fort Collins TO: FROM: DATE: Ann Azari Mayor Bob Blanchard ZJO Current Planning Director April 27, 1995 SUBJECT: Albertson's As a follow-up to our Tuesday meeting with the representatives from Denver Holdings, a meeting was held yesterday to review what appears to be the remaining issues regarding the Albertson's project. Those in attendance included all City staff involved in the review of the utility plans (Engineering, Stormwater and WaterlWastewater), Current Planning staff, Steve Parry from Denver Holdings and engineers from Landmark Engineering, who work for Denver Holdings. A brief summary of the salient points from the meeting include: • All of the issues based on the current submittal of utility plans were identified and discussed. This should make it clear exactly what needs to be addressed in the next submittal. • Landmark Engineering expect to make two additional submittals. This indicates that they realize they have not submitted final drawings for the City's review and do not expect approval of the current submittal. • The point was made that each previous submittal from the applicant has had major changes that resulted in a totally new review by City staff. • Steve Parry, from Denver Holdings, used a ground breaking date of mid - June as the deadline for Albertsons. In the Tuesday meeting, Dan Yacavetta used a date of June 1. • City staff will complete review of the current submittal by tomorrow, April 28. Landmark Engineering expects to make the next submittal around May 12. There will probably be a three week review period by our staff. 281 North College Avenue • P.O.

It is estimated that the project could receive final submittal by mid -June. This anticipated timeline assumes that the submittals from the applicant are complete and respond to all reviewers concerns. Over lot grading on the site can begin before final approval of the utility plans. This will probably commence around mid -May. The meeting was valuable to identify specific issues and to identify a potential timeline for completing this phase of the development. Assuming that upcoming submittals from the applicant are complete and respond to our comments, we should meet Albertson's timeline for breaking ground. Should you have any questions regarding this meeting or the project, please contact me. cc: Greg Byrne, CPES Director June 27, 1995 Michael Herzig, P.E.

College Avenue__�� HOLDINGS Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 RE: Country Club Corner Shopping Center, Fort Collins College Avenue at Willox Subject: Approval to begin underground Improvements/Utilities Michael: Thanks for getting back to me this morning via a phone conversation. As you know, we are under considerable pressure to move forward with the building construction of the Albertsons store at Country Club Corner. In order for the Albertsons store to open in late November of this year, as required by Albertsons, we must begin related utility tie-ins and initial building of Albertsons no later than the 17th of July. I understand that we will be issued a building permit to begin either underground utilities or the building itself only after the plat is recorded. Let me know if you see things differently or if there is a way to short-cut this requirement. The final improvement plans have been submitted to your department as well as the stormwater group now for over 2 weeks. Ken Merritt, from Landmark Engineering, informs me that these plans have been very carefully completed, reflecting comments from your staff as well as "Stormwater" and "Water & Sewer". I trust that these revised plans ( through at least 4 plan checks) are now very clean. Based upon your published City flow chart and schedule, as well as discussions with you and other City staff, I see that we have a real shot at meeting this time line if we all cooperate to the fullest. I have placed Landmark Engineering on a "full scale alert" so as to provide any service or support you may require to see that these plans are complete and to your satisfaction. As I see it, we must receive any final comments from the City back this week to make that schedule. In addition to completing the engineering plans, we must complete the "Development Agreement" with the City. I understand that we '11 be werk*tig with you directly on this ;utter. Mike, I really do appreciate your cooperation. We would prefer to avoid this pressure, but we are clearly under a critical deadline to begin the Albertsons store and related utility work. I promise full cooperation from our company as well as well as engineering and our general 10065 Fast contractor (Frank M. Hall & Co.) as you proceed to coordinate plan approvals and have the Har%ard Avcnuc. plat ready for recordation. Call me anytime as you need our assistance. I would appreciate a call from you by the end of this week for an update, prior to the 4th of July weekend. Thanks Suite 803 for updating the plan approval schedule with Dan Yacovetta and me on the phone today. We Deuven Colorado are encouraged by your comments. 80231 Sincerely, 303 338.9026 Fax: 303.338.9029 Steve Parry cc: Dan Yacovetta t' �``��';� STATE OF COLORADO DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS "T of H� P.O.

College Ave. August 21. 1991 Planning Department City of Fort Collins P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 Dear Planner: We have reviewed the Country Club Corners proposal, and we have the following comments: Projected traffic on S.H. 287 indicates the need for a 120 foot total right of way, 60 feet each side of the highway centerline. It is recognized that an additional 10 feet of right of way is to be dedicated to provide the desired width through Lot 1 and Tract A. Access to -the highway for the anticipated development should be obtained from the adjacent streets,-Bristlecone and Willox, with no direct access to the development from the state highway. The highway in this area is a Category 3 designation. According to the State Highway Access Code regarding Category 3 highways, private direct access to the state highway system shall be permitted only when the property in question has no other reasonable access to the general street system or if the local authority and Department determine and agree that denial of direct access to the state highway and alternative direct access to another roadway would cause unacceptable traffic operation and safety problems to the overall traffic flow to the general street system. The proposed development would require that an Access Permit be issued for the existing access, due to change of use of the property. At such time that the application for access is received, the property, as a whole, must be brought into reasonable conformance to the State Highway Access Code, thereby causing the need to eliminate the existing access. Our comments on state highway access are based on the information presented for this property only. If the property owner has any interests or ownership in adjacent property along the highway, this information should be provided since it may affect our comments. cc: Council ; a , July 27, 19,95 Honorable Mayor Ann Azari City of Fort Collins 300 LaPorte Avenue DENVER Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 H 0 L D I G S RE: Country Club Corner Shopping Center, Fort Collins INCORPRRRTFO .. _.. ,.,..

Additionally we have commenced construction of the Albertsons store, the anchor tenant for the center. We feel we have a real shot at meeting Albertsons goal of opening their store by the middle of December and clearly we are pleased to be able to reasonably attain that objective. We want to provide a special thanks to you and your staff for the considerable support provided to us during this approval process through the City. Without this special help we certainly could not have met this time constraint. We recognize that our timing was very aggressive, but that was the parameter that we were obligated to achieve with Albertsons. Acknowledging the amount of engineering work that is occurring within the City at this time, it really took a major effort from a lot of people to be where we are today. I want to acknowledge a few people in particular for their extra support in this effort. The engineering approvals was headed up by Mike Herzig. Mike coordinated much of the various departments and agencies in their review and clearly this was necessary to achieve the objectives. Mike was supported by some other quality people like Kerrie Ashbeck and others within the engineering department. Steve Olt was particularly helpful in areas of land planning and other coordination. Glen Schlueter and Basil Harridan were especially helpful to us in reviewing and approving our stormwater plans and offering valuable assistance in our design as it needed to change due to complexities of the site. The same support was provided by Roger Buffington in the Water and Waste Water Departments. Also I want to thank Frank Bruno for his support to our efforts to move this project along. 1 10065 East realize that these special services are not easy to provide given the high demand and limited staffing within the City. So thank you again. I hope we will be regarded well within the City Harvard Avenue, and that you will find our project a benefit the City of Fort Collins and its citizens.

We are focusing our activity on the Albertsons site since their building construction must begin '. `, as soon as possible for us to have any chance of meeting their scheduled opening the beginning 9' of December. It appears that the grading on the Albertsons site should be ready to trench for )Y rt: footings and foundations next week. We do not, however, expect to be ready for a formal building permit until July 14, perhaps Monday, July 17 upon completion of engineering Mylars (with appropriate signatures), the development agreement completed, and finally the recordation of the plat map. As stated in my earlier letter, I am attempting to meet a deadline for permitting a of the Albertsons building no later than Jul 17 " I understand from Roger Buffington that there are some issues that need resolution on the waste t water plans. Basal expects to complete the review of the stormwater plans today. I have given our civil engineer, Landmark Engineering, specific directions to review these issues today and complete any final issues over the weekend. Hopefully that will include any issues you and your team find on the balance of the plans. If the issues are minor and can be easily corrected, perhaps we can immediately progress to the preparation of "Mylars" and submit these by mid next week. That may give us a shot at completing everything the latter part of next week and the following week such that we can record the plat on Friday, July 14 or perhaps even sooner. Then formal building permitting could then be possible on Monday, July 17. We may be iavl , to save sum% tine if we were allowed to obtain a "Footings and Foundation Permit" sometime next week, perhaps as early as Wednesday, July 5. If that were possible then we could form and pour footings next week and the week of July 10. Please let me know if this is possible.. Roger Buffington and Basal indicated that they would not object and deferred to you for permission. Please let me know your thoughts on this. I would like to provide some 10065 Fast direction to my contractor next Monday, July 3. Harvard Avenue. I expect to be available to speak with you today or Monday.

Public Service Company has stated that: Gaa,The utility easement adjacent to Willox Lane needs to be rev,�`5�uj much wider to accommodate all utilities. PSC needs to C4)n.lOu� , install a gas line alongWillox Lane to serve this Ga►- project. QJb. No trees may be planted within 4' of gas lines. 2. A copy of the comments received from Sharon Getz of the Building Inspection Department is attached to this letter. 3. The comments received from the Mapping/Surveying Department are as follows: How do Lots 7 and 8 legally get access, based on the information provided on the subdivision piat? The easement between Lots 7 and 8 needs to be labeled. The Access, Utility, and Drainage easements do not cross the Greeley water line. Is this a problem? There is a recorded subdivision plat in the City titled Country Club Corners P.U.D. Assuming that changes are being made to the plat of record, this request will have to be a replat of the recorded plat. 4. The Water/Wastewater Department has indicated that their comments are included on red -lined utility and landscape plans. These plans have been forwarded to Landmark Engineering. 281 North College Avenue • P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (303) 221-6750 FAX (303) 221-6378 TDD (303) 224-6002 5. The City of Greeley must review these plans due to their wA1_-T71JU1 Oe existing 27" underground water line that crosses the property. 6ozen-gy 7� This wz*iter line is fairly shallow, which could affect 60mimprovements to the site. 6. A copy of the comments received from the Engineering Department is attached to this letter. 7. There is a recently adopted City Ordinance No. 76, 1994 that deals with landscape and irrigation design standards for developments. This development is subject to the requirements of the new ordinance, which is available in the Planning Office. A copy of the comments received from Jim Clark, the City's Water Conservation Specialist, is attached to this letter. 8. Tim Buchanan, the City Forester, has stated that the street trees between the sidewalk and curb need to be changed from Red Oak to Bur Oak. Also, it is being suggested that the Bradford Pear be changed to Autumn Blaze Pear. 9. The striping plan that was submitted shows a southbound left turn lane into the shopping center from North College Avenue. SYfCIP�����5 A raised median will have to be constructed in North College P'nPW n if a left turn in is desired and the design of the median �UTC� island must be reviewed at this time. The access to the �i rA shopping center from North College, between the Union Colony Q Bank and Burger King, will never be signalized. A right- in/right-out only for this access was approved with Burger King. The elements of the approved North College Avenue Access Control Plan are significant.. Please contact Tom Vosburg of the Transportation Department to discuss these comments. He can be reached at 221-6608. 10. Speed humps are needed in the driveway along the store fronts. 11. There will be significant pedestrian origins from residential communities along North College Avenue. It is being suggested that pedestrian "landing areas" (possibly with benches to create good, safe resting points) be provided at the southeast corner of College Avenue and Willox Lane and on the east side of the eastern entry to the shopping center from Willox Lane. There should be a pedestrian crosswalk on the east side of the entry of the same scored concrete material as being used elsewhere on the site. These type of improvements would better serve the anticipated number of pedestrians to the shopping center. 12. Are both north -south internal drives being constructed to Bristlec:one Drive with the Albertson's phase of development? Volte The notes on the Site Plan should be clarified to state the intent. It could be interpreted to mean that "the edge of asphalt pavement this phase of work" will occur with the development of Lots 9, 10, and 11. 13. The sidewalk along the North College Avenue frontage should be y completed from the north edge of Burger King to the intersection of College Avenue and Willox Lane with this project. This will complete the pedestrian link in this area. 14. What is the reference to "barrel color green typ." above the 00. drug store building on the elevation plan? The alternating Pf\ grey & red color bands on the masonry walls are 21.to 3' wide horizontal bands wrapping completely around the buildings? This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as 'the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request. Please be aware of the following dates and deadlines to assure your ability to stay on schedule for the January 23, 1995 Planning and Zoning Board hearing: Plan revisions are due no later than the end of the working day, January 4, 1995. Please contact me- for the number of folded revisions required for each document. PMT1s, renderings, and 8 folded copies of final revisions (for the Planning and Zoning Board packets) are due by 3:00 p.m. on January 17, 1995.

Collins August 21,-1991 Page 2 The information presented does not indicate the direction of surface run-off flow. The developer is reminded that the highway drainage system is for the protection of the state highway right of way and is not intended to accommodate drainage from abutting properties beyond that which has historically been accepted. Therefore, we ask that on site retention of surface run-off be provided so that the historical run-off rate will not be exceeded due to this development. The plan shows landscaping within the state highway right of way. We allow such landscaping provided that it is maintained by the adjacent private property owner, does not impair sight distance at any highway access, does not present a safety hazard, and would not unreasonably conflict with future highway expansion. Thank you for the opportunity to review this proposal. Please contact me at 350-2163 if you have any questions. Very truly yours, Evan A. Hooper, Jr. Development/Access Coordinator EAH/cm cc: L. D. Yost J. F. Springer File iiiii City of Fort Collins Developa it cervices Planning Department August 23, 1991 Ric Hattman Gefroh Hattman, Inc. 145 West Swallow Road Fort Collins, CO 80525 Dear Ric, City Staff has reviewed your submittal for Country Club Corner Overall Development Plan and Preliminary Plan for the Burger King Fast Food Restaurant, and offers the following comments: 1. Public Service will need 10' to 15' utility easements dedicated adjoining the south line of Willox Lane and the north line of Bristlecone as the overall site is developed and platted. 2. An overall conceptual drainage plan needs to be submitted for the ODP. There is an existing storm sewer to the development and preliminary results of an on -going study by the Stormwater Utility indicates that the storm sewer may be a limiting factor for stormwater release. It appears that the public storm sewer outfall combined with street capacities does meet present criteria. On -site detention may be needed as a result of the on site storm sewer capacity even though the public outfall .system would allow release of the 100 year storm event without detention. 3. There are other stormwater alternatives but they should be planned for in advance so that any planned building sites can be designed to accommodate the storm sewer system especially if it involves surface flow. 4. All building must be constructed to the limitations of the existing water supply. Proposed water lines and fire hydrants should be shown on the ODP. 5. Large buildings, such as grocery stores and discount drug stores will require fire sprinkler protection. 6. Some uses may require hazardous materials impact analysis. 7. US West Communications requests a 15 foot utility easement paralleling the existing 8" sanitary sewer on the east side of the "pad sites". The intent is to continue the "alley" 2H 1 \orILh C o I I ; % cn'_;L' 1'.0 . o', concept of Evergreen Park and keep local telephone cable out of the College Avenue corridor. 8. I have unclosed a letter from the State Highway Department regarding access to the site. The letter seems to indicate that unless the shopping center is going in, the curb cut on College Avenue is not justified by the Burger King alone or by combining the access cut with the existing bank. I have contacted Rick Ensdorff for clarification on this issue. We may need to set up a meeting with the Highway Department to discuss ,access on North College. 9. Is OVD the same as ODP?! I don't blame you if it is confusing and maybe OVD is a better name for it. 10. I should point out that Willox Lane has been designated on the Master Street Plan as an arterial street, not a collector as is stated in your report. You may want to change this wording, but I don't believe that it changes how the project does on -the point charts. 11. On the Neighborhood Service Center Point Chart the number in the right hand column should be 64, since you need to bring over to -the right column the 6 for joint parking, if you use it on the left. Also the previous total was not correct. On the left, the total is 50, giving the ODP 78%. This is over the 50% :required by the LDGS. 12. On the Auto -related and Roadside Commercial Point Chart, the Burger King would not get points for primary access from a non -arterial street, because the drive is not a city street. The project therefore takes its primary access from College Avenue, an arterial street. 13. Do you intend to include the existing bank in this PUD? If not, the Burger King alone is not two acres or more and is not mixed use so points could not be taken for those criteria. Also, joint parking will not apply to the Preliminary. Without the bank, the Preliminary scores 42% on this point chart, under the minimum of 50%, unless some credit (2 points x 2) are taken for energy conservation. Please indicate how energy conservation will be addressed. 14. On the ODP and Preliminary Plan please indicate the existing topography with elevations and 2' contour intervals. 15. On the ODP please make a note as to the maximum building height to be allowed. 16. One of the submittal requirements for ODP's (formally Master Plans) is a requirement to give the location and general nature of each land use. This could be better accomplished on the ODP by creating a table with two headings, one for the anchor and support shop uses and one for the pad site uses. Under these two headings list the general uses. This is similar 'to what you have already submitted, but more defined. 17. Include on the ODP some conceptual arrows for pedestrian/bike access to the shopping center from the office uses to the east as it is very likely that the proposed restaurant uses will attract pedestrians from neighboring uses. Staff would also like to see pedestrian access to the pad sites from the sidewalk on College, please add some conceptual arrows to indicate this. These should be added to the illustrative concept as well.. 18. The area shown on the ODP and Preliminary Plan must extend beyond the property lines of the proposal to include a survey of the area within 150' of the proposal, exclusive of public right-of-way, at the same scale as the proposal and include the following: a) Land uses, location of principal structures and major existing landscape features; b) Traffic circulation system, including curb cuts and drives; c) Natural features of landscaping; and d) General topographical mapping at the same scale as the ODP. 19. Please indicate on the vicinity map for the ODP, where the project :is located. 20. Add a signature block, for the attorney's certification of ownership, to the ODP and Preliminary Plan and include the wording "'Secretary of the Planning and Zoning Board" under the signature line for the Planning and Zoning Board. 21. Please submit the name and address of each owner of property in the Master Plan area. If the bank is to be included in the Preliminary it should be included in the ODP. 22. The City Transportation Division would like to see two exit lanes for the main entrance with one signed for "right -turn only". 23. Please label the utility easements on the ODP for the specific utility uses. The following comments relate specifically to the Preliminary Plan. 24. Please include a note indicating that all landscaping for this PUD, including any landscaping in the public right-of-way, will be maintained by the individual property owners. 25. The North College area is currently served by Transfort Route #8 with :Mops on the north side of Willox when westbound and on the west side of College at Willox when southbound. Transfort has indicated that they have no plans to change this route in. the near future. 26. Please provide more detail on the parking. situation. How many employees and what will- their parking needs be? Please include one more handicapped space next to the existing one. Given that someone may disembark from the bus or be on the College Avenue sidewalk, indicate how pedestrian circulation will be safely provided through the site. The Commission on Disability has a concern that the only access for someone on the walk. is to go completely around the landscaped areas to the entrance. One solution would be to provide a sidewalk along the north property boundary to the location of the first landscaped island. Also indicate pedestrian access to the site from the shopping center. Please indicate bicycle and motorcycle parking. 27. The menu order board will require a zoning variance as it counts as one free-standing sign if it is visible from any adjacent property line. If it is mounted on the building it would not count as a free standing sign but it would be limited in size. Please indicate how many stacking spaces you will have behind the menu board. You may find that you will need to move the board to the west to get enough stacking space without creating a conflict at the north entrance. 28. On -site traffic/directional signage must not exceed 4 square feet in area/face. 29. Please provide schematics of all signage, including proposed materials, colors, lighting schemes, and size. Staff will expect the sign package to be similar to the package for the Burger Rings at Raintree and the Market Place PUDs. Please make a note on the preliminary plan that roof top signage will not be permitted. As Staff has concerns about the impact of signage from this property on the streetscape, we request that the wall sign on the south facade be eliminated, it is less than 44' from the monument sign. The wall sign on the north facade shall be individual, pan channeled, internally illuminate letters in one color no greater than 18" in height, instead of the 4'x 4' cabinet sign. Staff also requests that there be no reader boards associated with this PUD. 30. Where will the main sign for the Center be located? 31. US West Communications requests a 15' utility easement paralleling the existing 8" sanitary sewer line. 32. Adjust the detention pond so the grease trap and manhole are not be :located in the pond. The existing sanitary sewer easement needs to be increased to 301. 33. I have attached a copy of the site plan showing the approximate location of the existing streetlights. Please keep in mind that street trees need to be at least 40' from street lights and ornamentals need to be at least 15' away from street lights. 34. Currently the City has- an ordinance which requires the developer of this property to have the REA overhead line on Willox put underground. There may be some change to this ordinance in the near future. Please contact Doug Martine at Light and Power for the latest information. 35. Dedicate right-of-way on College Avenue to 16' from the flowline to accommodate the parkway and 7' walk which will be located within the right-of-way. 36. The decel lane must be designed to meet State Highway Access Code requirements. 37. A State Highway Access Permit will need to be applied for through 'the City prior to final approval. 38. As with the ODP, access is an issue with the State Highway Department. I will set up a meeting to discuss this as soon as possible. 39. The drainage report/plan does not show the basin delineation or concentration points and the off -site flows from the east are not discussed. Clarify driveway flows, are they being detained'? 40. The final outfall into a major system needs to be discussed, including easements for the detention area and the 15" storm sewer. Clarify all storm sewer easements, existing and proposed, on the plat. 41. Limited capacity of the on -site storm sewer may require some detention on site, but not as restrictive as the 2 year historic. An analysis with the ODP is needed. 42. The final plans must include an erosion control plan to address erosion control during construction. 43. The north arrow on the Preliminary Plan is going south. 44. Please indicate, in a note on the preliminary plan, what the existing zoning is. 45. Staff would like to see 2 to 3 more conifer trees along the drive-thru lane at the north end of the project. Additional foundation plantings along the east and west building facades would greatly enhance the overall design and tie the building to the ground. Additional ornamentals along College Avenue will be required to enhance the streetscape. Please provide more detail on the height of the berms with the Final Landscape Plan. 46. If the bank, or at least the drive to the east of the bank, is included in the PUD, Staff would like to see more detail about the landscaping along this drive. Rock mulch would not be desirable. Staff would expect to see the landscaping in this area to be the same high quality landscaping as is proposed along the drive to the east of Burger King. This is another example of why the bank should become a party to this PUD. This concludes staff comments at this time. In order to stay on schedule for the September 23, 1991 Planning and Zoning Board hearing, please note the following deadlines: Plan revisions are due September 4, 1991 by 12:00 noon. PMT's, colored renderings, and 10 prints are due Sept. 16th. Final mylars and other documents are due Sept. 19th, by 12:00. If you have any questions about these comments or would like to schedule a time to meet to discuss them, please contact me at 221- 6750. Sincerely, ' Kirsten Whetstone Project Planner
