a) The project is a Project Development Plan, not a Planned Unit
Development. Please rename the project from Glenmoor PUD 2"d and
3`d Filings to a PDP, and change the name on all plans, accordingly.
b) Please label the uses for Tracts A, B, and C on the plat.
c) Please add zone districts to all vicinity maps.
d) Please rename one of the Kirra Courts.
e) Please number the site plan, landscape plan, and elevations sheet
of . I recommend deleting what is labeled as sheet 2 of 2
and placing that information on what is called sheet 1 of 2. By deleting
all the information south of Plum Street, I think everything on sheet 2
could be moved over to sheet 1.
f) Please calculate the density according to the requirements of Section
3.8.18 Residential Density Calculations of the Land Use Code. This
includes calculating gross density according to these requirements well
as net density and summarized according to Section 3.8.18(B)(2).
g) On the signature block, please change Secretary of the Planning and
Zoning Board to the Director of Planning.
h) Please coordinate with Stormwater Utility and Rob Wilkinson with the
Current Planning Department regarding the design and plantings of
the landscape channel.
i) The garage standards found in Section 3. 5.2(E)(1 -4) of the Land Use
Code apply. (This has changed since the time of conceptual review,
and you are required to comply with the Land Use Code in effect on
the date of submittal.) According to the requirements of the section,
50% of all garages must be recessed or designed to comply with the
standard. Corner lots are exempted from the standard; therefore, of
the 42 lots submitted, 50% of.37 of lots (the total number minus the
number of comer lots) must comply with the standard (19 lots). Please
designate which lots comply with the requirements of the Land Use
Code on the site plan and change the elevations to demonstrate
compliance. If you wish to request a modification to these standards,
the project will be subject to review by the Planning and Zoning Board.
Please submit any requests for modifications with the next submittal if
it is required.
j) Please contact Tim Buchanan, City Forester, regarding tree mitigation
and protection.

b) Significant trees to be removed will need to be mitigated according to
Section 3.2.1(F) of the Land Use Code.
c) Several good existing trees are shown for removal. They should be
retained to the extent reasonably feasible. We need to review all
reasons for removal.
d) Please see the redlined plan for more comments.
13. The Light and Power Utility stated the "need to coordinate meter locations.
Typically, units on their own lots are individually metered unless easements
exist that allow "ganged -type:. We will need to coordinate streetlights and
street trees."
14. The Advance Planning Department offered the following comments:
a) Please add landscaping between the buildings and along the south
side. Perhaps a row of trees, maybe placed at a scattered pattern,
would help add screening.
b) Please provide a pedestrian connection to Taft Hill Road from the cul-
de-sac.
15. Transportation Planning offered the following comments:
a) The TIS should have included an evaluation of Taft Hill Road and
Elizabeth Road for pedestrian LOS. You will need to update the TIS or
provide a letter addressing the LOS at this location.
b) Please provide a pedestrian connection from Kirra Court cul-de-sac to
S. Taft Hill Road.
c) There is a need to consider school children walking to/from the west to
Moor Elementary School and possibly crossing the street at the rear
school entrance. (there's a concern with a crosswalk on a curve.)
d) Stripe bike lanes on Glenmoor Drive (if enough width) or post as a bike
route.
e) You will need to place protective fencing around the construction site
and care in operating equipment to protect children walking to/from
school.
16. The Current Planning Department offered the following comments:
3
b) No trees shall be planted within 4' of gas lines. It appears as if Tracts
B, C and parts of A have conflicts.
6. Comments from the Engineering Department are attached.
7. The Poudre Fire Authority offered the following comments:
a) The street names need to be changed. Kirra Court (north/south) is
incompatible with Kirra Court (east/west).
b) Delete the proposed fire hydrants shown at each end of the cul-de-
sacs (of Kirra Court going east/west). Relocate on fire hydrant at the
intersection of Kirra Court and Kirra Court. The required fire flow shall
be 1,000 gallons/minute at 20 psi. Hydrants shall be spaced on 800
foot centers.

these footprints or building envelopes?

RE: Staff comments on the Glenmoor PUD, fd and 3rd Filings
Dear Dick:
Staff has reviewed the Glenmoor PUD 2"d and 3rd Filings Project
Development Plan, and would like to offer the following comments:
1. Rob Wilkinson, Environmental Planner with the Current Planning Department,
offered the following comments related to Natural Resources:
a) I will need to examine the engineering drawings for this project, and
will need to revisit previous Natural Resources comments from the file.
At one time we recognized wetlands on the site, and it was my
understanding that the channel was to be a wetland channel. If the
small circles on the landscape plan represent cattails or other wetland
plant species, they should be designated as such.
2. Comments from the Building Inspections Department are attached.
3. TCI of Fort Collins stated that "TCI of Fort Collins will need a broadband
easement and right -of -entry agreement to service the Glenmoor PUD 2"d and
3'd Filings. The developer can contact our commercial accounts executive,
Reneta Santore, at 493-7400 for this agreement."
4. Comments from Traffic Operations will follow after review of the
transportation impact study.
5. Public Service Company offered the following comments:
a) Tracts A, B and C adjacent to ROW should be designated as utility
easements.
