Dear Bob,
The staff has reviewed the application for final PUD and subdivision plat
approval of the Park Central PUD Phase III and offers the following
comments:
1. The site plan should indicate the extent of the existing island at the
Lemay Avenue entrance. The extension of the island may create backing
problems for some of the adjacent parking spaces. The staff would like
to discuss with you the design of the island.
2. Underground gas tanks must be located outside of the utility easements.
All utility easements should be shown on the site plan. The roadway
over gas tanks must be designed to withstand imposed loads of fire
apparatus. The Planning and Zoning Board were concerned about how the
unloading of large gas trucks will be accommodated. The applicants
should provide evidence as to how filling of the tanks will be
accomplished.
3. Location of pedestrian access ramps, width of new and existing
sidewalks and pedestrian treatments of crosswalks should be shown on
the site plan.
4. The parking stalls in front of the building will need to be 19 feet in
length if the posts on the overhang will prevent the two foot overhang
of a 17 foot stall length. Please clarify.
5. The gas pumps/canopy must be within a building envelope. The canopy
must be a minimum of 13' 6" in height to allow for fire access. Any
overhead projections of any structures must be within a building
envelope.

conditions. The applicants should provide a written response to each

on building should be clearly indicated on the site plan.
7. Energy conservation measures should be indicated on the site plan.
8. 8 112" x 11" PMT reductions of all plans, colored renderings of the
site and building elevations, and ten full size copies of the site,
landscape plan, and building elevations should be submitted no later

9. Signed mylars of the site, landscape, building elevations and
subdivision plat including one signed "Site and Landscape Covenants"

Dear Randy,
The staff has reviewed the application for preliminary approval of the
revised Park Central PUD and Park Central Phase 3 plans and offers the
following comments:
There are electrical underground utilities existing in the area of the
revised PUD plan. All re -work in this area should be coordinated with
the Light and Power Utility.
The southwest and southcentral three-story office buildings and the 2
two-story office buildings on Welch Drive appear to exceed the 150 foot
fire access requirement. Full sprinkling of these buildings should be
noted on the site plan. The fire hydrant between the three-story
office buildings must be moved to curb line. The building design must
take into consideration fire containment area requirements of the
Building Code and available fire flow. All fire access lanes which
cross property lines must be dedicated access easements.
The curb cut location on Welch Street does not conform to City standard
in terms of a 200 foot separation. A written variance request should
be submitted, including the reasons for the request and an analysis of
the impact of granting the variance. Other traffic comments contained
in my letter to you, dated May 20, 1985, is considered to be part of
the staff's comments on this proposal. I would like to have a copy of
the Traffic Impact Study as soon as possible. The landscaped parking
island directly south of the restaurant should be extended to the
northeast in order to discourage cars from cutting through the parking
lot. Finally, the staff questions the functioning of the "existing
drop-off" in front of the health club given the new configuration of
parking and increase in traffic. Please provide evidence to justify the
plan design.

4. Any easements which will not be needed or to be relocated (for
instance, the bike trail) as part of the revisions, will require formal
vacation by the City Council. The vacation requests should be
submitted as part of the final PUD plans. All existing and proposed
easements should be shown on the site plans.
5. The median in the entranceway from Prospect should be setback at least
20 feet from the flowline of that street. The median should allow for
left turns into the parking lot.
6. The following additional information should be shown on the site plans:
a. Interior radii of parking areas (a minimum of 40 foot outside and
20 foot inside radius will be required for fire access);
b. Indication of handicapped access ramps at interior pedestrian
crossings;
c. Location of parking lot and building lighting including statement
concerning eliminating glare onto adjacent residential areas;
d. Exact building height rather than 40 feet;
e. Total floor area of office, retail and convenience store uses;
f. Development schedule and phasing;
g. Energy conservation notes;
h. Bicycle parking.
7. Soils report must be updated to reflect the additional traffic on the
site. A drainage report or letter stating how the changes to Phase 3
affects drainage will be required.
8. The Police Department has a number of concerns with the project. Please
see me for details.
9. Loading zones will be required for the 4,700 sq. ft. office/retail
building. The location of the loading zone for the convenience store
is confusing. The loading zone should not be located in the landscape
buffer area along Prospect Road and should be screened from view.
10. The staff would recommend that the sidewalk in front of the convenience
store be extended to the sidewalk along Lemay Avenue. I believe that
there is an existing sidewalk along the most easterly wall of the
existing 11,600 sq. ft. retail building that should be retained but is
not shown. Also, a sidewalk connection should be made between the
Park Central PUD Comme,ics
5/21/85 - Page 3
sidewalk east of the future health club expansion and the sidewalk
north of the 2 two-story office buildings. Treatment of paved areas
at pedestrian crossings should be noted on the site plan.
11. There does not appear to have been Planning Objectives submitted with
this proposal. Planning Objectives should address PUD requirements as
well as indicate how the architecture of all buildings will blend with
existing buildings on the site. A written response to each of the
neighborhood concerns should be submitted by the applicants.
12. The convenience/retail use appears to be very close to the street. The
two story office building appears to be very close to Welch Street.
Also, the setback of parking along Welch Street and Prospect Road
appears to be very close. The staff would recommend that the applicant
re-evaluate the plan in terms of increasing the setback of the building
and parking in these areas.
13. The staff would recommend that foundation planting areas be provided
along the south and east side of the convenience store/retail building
and along the south and southeast sides of the 15,300 sq. ft. retail
building.
Further comments on the landscape plan will be available at our meeting
on this proposal.
14. While the preliminary drawings are probably sufficient to demonstrate
at the preliminary plan level the basic architectural intent of the
project, at the time of final review detailed drawings of all
elevations of all buildings will be required. The elevations should be
revised to indicate materials and colors. Architectural elevations of
the canopy, including materials and colors, should be submitted. Are
there plans for special coloring, signage or other graphics associated
with the convenience store? If so, this information needs to be
indicated.
15. The proposed use should be evaluated against the "Neighborhood Service
Center" land use category rather than the business service use. Please
submit a completed point chart for this category.
16. If the Spring Creek Trail is to be relocated, it must be kept out of
the two-year floodplain. The evergreen trees shown between the parking
lot and the trail are not appropriate in the small amount of space.
Eventually the trees will encroach on the trail. A large buffer should
be maintained between the parking lot and trail as currently exists
(minimum of 25 feet). The new trail construction must adhere to the
City of Fort Collins Parks and Recreation Department specifications for
trails. The applicants should plan for temporary access during
construction of the new trail.

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.
I would recommend we meet as soon as possihle to discuss the above
comments. Revisions to the plans (five copies) reflecting the above
comments should be submitted to me no later than noon Wednesday, June 5th.
It is important that the above deadlines be followed if the item is to be
considered by the Planning and Zoning Board at their June meeting. If you
should have any questions or require further information, please feel free
to call me.
