The 10' utiLity easements are now shown along Lemay Avenue and Columbia Road. No other recorded easements are known to exist on the subject site. The partial flooding of the site evidenced in the past has been addressed by the development of retainage basins connected to a new storm sewer inlet at the southeast corner of the subject property. 2. The Lemay Avenue entrance is now three Lanes without median as requested. The entrance from Columbia Road will be by standard city curb cut. The parking Lot entrances are designed to aLLe;;=t free flow into the site without backup on Lemay Avenue. We see no justification to provide the deceleration Lane requested. 3. The dimensions requested are now shown on the site plan. 4. The sidewalk on Lemay Avenue, originally shown as 7' in width, exists as a 5' wide sidewalk for much of the frontage. We propose to leave the existing sidewalk in its present Location. A sidewalk of 7' in width wiLL be provided from the north end of the existing 5' walk to Dartmouth Trail. The sidewalk along Columbia Road has been moved back to the property Line and made 4' in width aLLowing for Landscape development between the sidewalk and the roadway. A 4' sidewalk has been provided along Dartmouth Trail. 5. Handicap parking spaces, ramps, motorcycle and bicycle parking are now indicated on the site plan. OFFICE 471 HIGH S.E. P.O.

Box 12984 Salem, OR 12984 Dear Clifford, The staff has reviewed the application for preliminary approval of the Fort Collins Retirement Residence/Nazarene Church POD and offers the following comments: 1. A ten Foot wide utility easeliient along Lentay Avenue and Columbia Rcad will be required as part of the final subdivision plat. All existing and proposed utility easements should be shown on the site plan. Portions of the property have been subject to flooding in the past. This has been a concern to the neighborhood. The applicant should provide written evidence as to how this problem will be resolved. 2. The median island at the Lemay Avenue entrance should be removed. The width of the entrance should allow for one lane in and two lanes out. A deceleration lane will be required at the major entrance. The entrance to the loading area along Columbia Road will need to be designed as a City standard curb cut. All other parking lot entrances may be designed as curb returns. Please revise plan to reflect these comments. 3. Additional dimensions will be required on the site plan including the following: - ROW and flowline of all abutting public streets (entire and half street) - Driveways, parking aisles and curb cuts - Parking stall width and depth - Sidewalks - Landscape islands and buffer areas - Building envelopes to property lines f dtl' a i OFFIOE OF COMM(Jt,IITY 300 LaPorte Ave. P.O Box 580 • Fort Collins. Colorado eLW' r,750 .-.. �....,. .. . I ­ 4. There may be problems locating a seven foot sidewalk along Lemay Avenue in terms of the placement of the ditch. Please provide additional information on this matter. The sidewalk along Columbia Road should be detached from the curb and needs to be only four feet in width. Street trees should be provided between the curb and the detached sidewalk. A four foot walk along Dartmouth Trail will be required. Please revise. 5. Handicapped parking spaces and ramps, motorcycle and bicycle parking should be indicated on the site plan. Please revise. 6. The applicants should provide a detailed parking analysis justifying the adequacy of parking for both the church and retirement home, including the child care center. "Land Use Data" information on site plan for parking should be broken down by each use in addition to the total figure. An easement for joint use of the parking will be required aL the time of final approval. 7. A note should be added to the site plan, indicating that all portions of the first story of all buildings will be within 150 feet of an approved fire accessway or the buildings will be equipped with an approved fire sprinkling system. 8. Site plan information should indicate the Child Care Center use, including the number of expected children and staff. Outdoor play area for the child care center and screening thereof should be indicated on the site plan. Applicants should provide information indicating the operation of the drop off of children for the day care center. The zoning on the site is RL, low density residential and RP, planned residential. Please revise note on site plan 9. An additional sidewalk connection should be provided between the public sidewalk along Lemay Avenue and the church sidewalk system. The applicant should consider the placement of a sidewalk along the west boundary of the parking lot. 10. The site plan should include a survey of the area within 150 feet of the boundaries of the entire property indicating existing land uses and location of principal structures; densities of residential uses; existing trees; and curb cuts. The site plan should also include a vicinity map. Please revise. 11. Location of trash areas for the Church should be indicated on the site plan. Also, please indicate screening treatment of trash areas for both the Retirement home and the church. The staff would strongly recommend that the applicants consider locating the trash area for the retirement residence within or attached to the structure itself. 12. The applicants should provide a cross section view of the buffer area between the parking and the adjacent homes and between the church/retirement home and the adjacent homes. 3-5 foot berms should be provided between the parking lot and west property line. Larger than standard size trees and evergreens should be provided in this buffer area (for instance 8 - 10 foot evergreens) Also, the applicants should consider the use of larger deciduous and ornamental trees rather than aspen trees. The Colorado Spruce used in these parking areas will out grow the planting space provided. It would be better to use Austrian Pines that can be limbed up without destroying their shape. Location of existing privacy fences along the west property line should be indicated on the site plan. Where privacy fencing is missing, the applicant should agree to installing the required fencing. The staff would recommend that the applicant commit to providing an additional layer of wood slats on the existing fence to contribute to additional sound attenuation where necessary. 13. The applicants should provide a written response to each of the comments received at the neighborhood meeting. 14. The staff is concerned about the appearance of the church from along Dartmouth Trail and from the abutting properties to the west. The building appears to be very "stark" from these areas. The staff would recommend that the applicants provide more variety in these elevations in terms of building configuration and materials. 15. Exterior parking lot and building lighting should be addressed on the site plan. What measures will be taken to assure than lighting will not glare or spill over onto adjacent residential areas? Please provide written evidence. 16. What precautions will be taken to minimize the danger to future residences of the retirement home from the irrigation canal? 17. Energy conservation measures for both the church and the retirement home should be noted on the site plan. 18. Additional conifers should be provided along Lemay Avenue for contrast with the deciduous trees in the foreground. Berms should be added along Columbia Road, Dartmouth Trail, and Lemay Avenue. Additional shrubs beds should be added along Lemay Avenue to provide additional screening of the parking areas and to add visual interest. Additional foundation plantings should be provided along the east and north boundaries of the church. Also, additional tree and evergreen plantings should be provided along the Dartmouth Trail frontage. See attached drawing for details. 19. PMT reductions, colored renderings and ten full size copies of the site plan, landscape plan, and building elevations should be submitted by noon on January 20, 1986. Revisions to the plans (3 copies) reflecting the above comments should be delivered to this office no later than noon on Wednesday, January 8. It is extremely important, that the above deadlines be followed if the item is to be considered at the January meeting of the Planning and Zoning Board. If you should have any questions, please let me know. I will be on vacation beginning December 20 and will return on January 6. If you should need to discuss any of these issues, I would recommend that you contact Bonnie Tripoli in this office. S erely, k \ )' / l e Joe Frank AFting'Planningi Director cc.
