07/07/2015: The Chestnut access to Jefferson needs to be right -in, right -out. This
inlcudes an exagerated pork -chop. The eastbound approach from Jefferson to
Chestnut warrants a right turn lane, and can be fully implemented with the road diet
when it is built in the future. In the meantime, the plans should reflect a flare for
turning traffic and identify parking to be removed to make this happen.

07/07/2015: The TIS needs to be refined to acknowledge that Jefferson and College

07/08/2015: Repeat comment from PDR:
"This site is adjacent to a CDOT roadway and all access off of Jefferson is subject
to CDOT approval. CDOT has identified that access to Chestnut Street will need to
be limited to right -in right -out movements and these movements will need to be
controlled by a physical barrier (construction of a median in Jefferson or a pork
chop). The project will be responsible for the design and construction of this
improvement. A pork chop maybe the easiest to implement as a median in
Jefferson will require some other extensive improvements and coordination since
room does not currently exist in the roadway in which a median can be constructed.
Both solutions will impact existing parking — likely on both streets.
Plans will be routed to CDOT for review and approval and the applicant will need to
obtain an access permit from CDOT for Chestnut and the service connection."

Square footage of each use should be shown separately and its accompanying

the hotel is one use which has a requirement per room (0.5 min; 1.0 max); the
conference space is another with a requirement of 1 space per 1,000 square feet;
restaurant (5 per 1,000 s.f. min; 10 per 1,000 max); and retail both in the hotel and
the parking structure (2 per 1,000 s.f. min; 4 per 1,000 s.f. max).
Function and circulation of hotel parking should be shown on the site plans. I.e.
how/where will the public and private parking be separated? How will the valet
parking work? Will all the hotel parking be valet as eluded to in the narrative? What
about hotel employees?
Bicycle parking should be accomodated for each use outlined above and also be

the Land Use Code. Alternative compliance is a possibility especially for the hotel
use.

07/06/2015: General Modification Comment:
Please address the requested Modification of Standards as outlined in Sec. 2.8 of
the code.
The decision maker must find that 1) granting the modification would not be
detrimental to the public good; and 2) one of the following four criteria is met:
(1) the plan as submitted will promote the general purpose of the standard for which
the modification is requested equally well or better than would a plan which complies
with the standard for which a modification is requested; or
(2) the granting of a modification from the strict application of any standard would,
without impairing the intent and purpose of this Land Use Code, substantially
alleviate an existing, defined and described problem of city-wide concern or would
result in a substantial benefit to the city by reason of the fact that the proposed
project would substantially address an important community need specifically and
expressly defined and described in the city's Comprehensive Plan or in an adopted
policy, ordinance or resolution of the City Council, and the strict application of such a
standard would render the project practically infeasible; or
(3) by reason of exceptional physical conditions or other extraordinary and
exceptional situations, unique to such property, including, but not limited to, physical
conditions such as exceptional narrowness, shallowness or topography, or physical
conditions which hinder the owner's ability to install a solar energy system, the strict
application of the standard sought to be modified would result in unusual and
exceptional practical difficulties, or exceptional or undue hardship upon the owner of
such property, provided that such difficulties or hardship are not caused by the act
or omission of the applicant; or
(4) the plan as submitted will not diverge from the standards of the Land Use Code
that are authorized by this Division to be modified except in a nominal,
inconsequential way when considered from the perspective of the entire
development plan, and will continue to advance the purposes of the Land Use Code
as contained in Section 1.2.2.
Please use the language in the Code to justify your requests. Also, please provide
exhibits detailing each request for modification .
