STAFF COMMENTS
MEETING DATE: March 11. 19a
ITEM : Wagon Wheel 3rd
APPLICANT: Al Hauser, Architecture One. 107 W. 29th. Suite 200, Loveland,
Colorado 80537
LAND USE DATA:
66 units on 10 acres located on the southeast corner of Hickok Drive and
Seneca Drive
COMMENTS:
1. There are existing sewer lines and easements on the site. For instance,
there is an existing sewer line along the east property line of the
site. These easements and utility lines need to be planned for.
2. The 20 foot private streets may present fire access problems.
3. Traffic Impact Study will be required. The study should review, among
other things, impact on existing streets and need for extension of
Seneca Street to Horsetooth Road.
4. The applicant will need to look at how the rest of the "future"
multi -family area is going to work.
5. Parking analysis will need to be provided.
6. More detail is needed on how parking, fire access, and circulation will
work.
7. The neighborhood has been very concerned with the development of this
property. A neighborhood meeting will be required. (See attached
guidelines.)
8. On -site detention of storm water will be required.
9. There will need to be at least a 40 foot setback between parking and
public streets.
10. The entire Wagon Wheel subdivision has only one access. A second point
of access is needed.
11. Certain off -site street improvements will be required. If the proposed
SID proceeds, this requirement may be satisfied.
12. At a minimum, a temporary turnaround will be required at east end of
Laredo Lane. The Traffic Impact Study may require improvement of Laredo
Lane to Casa Grande.

Dear John,
The staff has reviewed the application for preliminary and final PUD and
subdivison plat approval of the Casa Grande P.U.D. and offers the following
comments:
1. The plat is lacking chord bearing data. This information is needed
immediately. The area of each tract needs to be indicated. Unless the
envelopes are also to be separate lots, please do not indicate envelopes
on the subdivison plat. Rather, the location of the envelopes are to be
tied down on the site plan. If building envelopes are also lots, then the
area of these lots should be indicated on the subdivision plat.
2. Pedestrian ramps will be required at all corners and at important pedes-
trian crossings. Please indicate on site plan.
3. The ultimate width of Seneca Street needs further discussion. I would
recommend we meet to discuss this issue. The applicants should provide
justification for the use of 25 mph design speed for Laredo Lane. There
appears to be a problem with the location of some garages in terms of
backing of vehicles out into the entrances of the driveways to public
streets. Please resolve.
4. 30 foot utility easements will be required when water and sewer lines are
combined in one easement. Drainage easements have not been shown. Eight
foot utility easements will be required along public streets. �thar
easements may be required interior to the site for utility i nsta i 1 ai: i on
and maintenance. The location of garages on the driveways may create
costly solutions for the installation of utilities. Any existing
easements or ROW which needs vacation will require separate City Council
approval. Please check with Bonnie Tripoli for further information on
easements.

5. Soils report will be required. The Storm Drainage Engineers have several
comments on the proposed handling of storm drainage on the site. I would
recommend that your engineers contact Bonnie Tripoli for details of these
comments.
6. A note should be added to the site plan indicating that any damaged curb,
gutter or s"dewalk will be replaced by the owners.
7. Four of the buildings do not appear to meet the 150 foot fire access
requirements (ice six-plexel and two eight-plexes located on an east -west
axis). Adequate fire access needs to be provided for these units. The
accessway for the units south of Laredo Lane must be looped or a turn
around provided at the end of the driveway for fire access. All fire
access roads will need to be signed for "no parking". The water system in
the area may need upgrading to meet fire flow requirements.
8. The Police Department has reviewed the plans and have several comments.
Please see me for details.
9. The site and landscape plans and other documents need to be clarified as
to the final plan portions.
10. Some additional information is needed on the site plan as follows:
a. Dimensions of flowlines and ROW of public streets;
b. Interior radii of parking areas (a minimum 40' outside and 20' inside
radius is required for fire access);
C. Surrounding 150' information is incomplete. Please see PUD
regulations for details;
d. Dimensions of active open space areas (no dimension is to be less than
50 feet);
e. Dimensions of envelopes. Final plan should indicate distance to at
least two different platted property lines. All structures should be
located within a building envelope. Also, the plan should indicate
distance, between adjacent envelopes;
f. Deck details including fencing thereof;
g. Detailed energy conservation measures being used in the project;
h. Typical dimensions of parking spaces, and;
i. Future improvements to Shields Street need to be indicated.
11. All signs must comply with sign code.

12. The staff questions some of the points taken on the Density Chart. A
detailed energy calculation needs to be provided to justify energy
credits. The applicants need to indicate how many "type A" and "type B"
handicapped units are being provided. Also, the site plan should include
notes as to the provision of handicapped units. Garages are not counted
as credit for Criterion U.
13. The applicants should provide a letter addressing each of the neighborhood
concerns as stated at the neighborhood meeting.
14. The landscape plan in general is not to the standards expected of new
planned development projects in Fort Collins. The sizes of new vegetation
do not meet City requirements. The design concept of landscape plan is
very weak and/or difficult to interpret. The staff recommends that the
applicants utilize a professional landscape designer who is familiar with
the City's requirements to prepare the landscape plan for this project.
15. The setback: of parking from flowline of public streets needs to be at
least forty feet in width. Please indicate these dimensions on the site
plan. The setback of parking from the driveway aisle needs to be either 19
feet or 0 feet. Please revise.
16. The site plan needs to indicate location of one and two story units. The
staff would recommend that a combination of one and two story elements be
provided in those units facing the public streets to provide more variety
in the streetscape. The staff is concerned that there are only two
different building types being proposed and there appears to be no variety
in color and materials between building types and building clusters. The
staff is also concerned about the orientation of the six-plex with the
parking side facing Shields Street. The Shields Street exposure will
probably be the most widely viewed of the project yet the plan turns the
least visually appealing portions of the building and parking toward this
view. The use of wood fences along this area is not an acceptable
solution to this problem. This property was originally planned as part of
the overall Wagonwheel project. The applicants needs to consider and
document how the architecture and site planning are "blend" with the
design of that project. Lastly, the staff would recommend that more
variety in setback be provided between individual units in four, six and
eight unit clusters.
17. On Friday, June 14th, 8 1/2" x 11" PMT reductions of all plans and colored
renderings of the site and building elevations will be due. On Monday,
June 17th, ten (10) full size copies of the site, landscape and building
elevations should be submitted. No later than noon Thursday, June 20th,
signed mylars of the site, landscape, building elevations and subdivision
plat should be submitted. Also on that date, a signed "Site and Landscape
Covenants" document should be provided (sample copies are available from
this office).

later than Wednesday, June 5th. It is important that the above deadlines be

Dear John,
On June 24, 1985, the Planning and Zoning Board approved the preliminary
plan of the Casa Grande PUD, Wagon Wheel 3rd, with the following
conditions:
1. That the final landscape plan address the landscape concerns as
expressed in the staff report (attached), including the use of a
qualified landscape architect or designer in its preparation.
2. That the applicants provide for a variety of compatible building styles
in the project to the extent possible, including evidence on the final
plans as to how this variety will be implemented and guaranteed.
3. That the applicants reevaluate the plan in terms of staggering the
buildings.
4. That the applicants examine increasing the separation between build-
ings.
5. That the quantity and quality of landscaping be significantly in-
creased.
These items should be addressed in the preparation of the final plans. The
final plans of the first and second phase of the Casa Grande PUD will be
considered by the Planning and Zoning Board at their July 22nd meeting. In
order to allow sufficient time for staff review, any revisions or new
information must be submitted (three copies) no later than July 3rd. Also,
on July 15, 1985, 8 1/2" x 11" PMT reductions of all plans, colored
renderings of the site and building elevations and ten (10) full size

13 . Casa Grande needs to be enlarged to collector street standards. This
has not been done as of yet.
14. A replat of the subdivision will be required. Any location of ROW or
easements will require City Council approval.
15. The distance between buildings and parking in some areas appear to be
very tight.
16. Would recommend that the setbacks between buildings and streets be
increased.
17. Would recommend breaking up 8 unit and six unit buildings along Seneca
Drive and Hickok Drive.
18. March 29th is the submittal date for the May Planning and Zoning Board
hearing.
19. The driveways and parking will need to be buffered from adjacent uses.
20. Would strongly recommend that the entire multi -family tract be planned
for at this time. A preliminary plan may be submitted for entire
property with final plans submitted in phases.
21. Landscaping, open space and berming between proposed and single family
should be further studied.

Shields Street and Casa Blanca Road
COMMENTS:
1. Revised cost estimates for electrical service is available from John
St. John at the Light and Power Utility.

3. A full parking space (19 feet) should be provided between front of
garage and driveway. If not, a maximum of 2-3 foot space should be
provided.

All first stories of all buildings must be within 150 feet of a fire
accessway„ Interior radius must be at least 20 feet inside and 40 feet
outside.
5. The City would like to explore joint programs for elderly using the
proposed community building. Please contact Nancy Luttrop at 221-6640.

8. Streets need to be designed to City standards.
9. Preliminary utility plans will be required with preliminary PUD
submittals.
10. Utility Coordinators Committee meeting is recommended. Please contact

12. Traffic Impact Study will be required.
13. Neighborhood meeting will be required.
14. Would question why the west half of property is being developed first.
From a marketing and public improvement standpoint, the east half of
the property makes more sense to develop first.
15. Seneca Street needs to be enlarged to collector street standards.
16. On -site detention will need to be provided.
17. The 20 feet setback may be appropriate for one-story units. Larger
setbacks are recommended for two-story units., One-story units are
recommended along exterior public streets.
