HomeMy WebLinkAboutFIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH PUD PHASE IV PRELIMINARY AND FINAL - 51 93 - CORRESPONDENCE - RESPONSE TO STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS7. All basement areas are constructed with a perimeter drain system which is connected to
two sump pumps which pump ground water to gravity flow to the retention pond. No
additional parking lots and paving are planned for this phase because the existing
parking exceeds city standards and no worship seating shall be added.
8. The landscaping concept of The Healing Place was, and is, to have the form of the
building rise directly out of the ground without foundation landscaping interrupting the
relationship of the building to the ground. We have made a departure from that design
philosophy to incorporate foundation plantings at the proposed administration wing and
at the curved wall of the proposed "atrium" / chapel. These proposed plantings only
supplement the existing landscaping. The building is situated on 25 acres, much of
which is grass with trees_ Additional trees are not warranted. The timing of he landscape
work is to coincide with the construction of the addition, allowing several months due to
optimal planting seasons. At this point, there is no scheduled date to start construction
for Phase IV.
9. Notes have been added to the landscape plan.
I hope the above responses resolve the concerns raised in your letter.
Very truly yours,

Re: First Christian Church, PUD, Phase IV
Dear Steve:
C C; A i 1= S
I offer the following in response to the staff comments dated 8/20/93:
1. Handicapped parking is located at the north row of the main parking lot on the south
side of the building, and on the north side of the building at the north-east entry. Both
locations are the closest to the entries.
2. A revised "Statement of Planning" is attached. This submittal is for Phase IV.
3. The church understands and agrees that any relocation of existing telephone facilities
shall be paid for by the church.
4. The church understands and agrees that any relocation of existing gas facilities shall be
paid for by the church.
5. The church is fully sprinklered. We have coordinated extension of sprinkler equipment
with the Poudre Fire Authority.
6. An update of the 1980 drainage report shall be prepared by a registered engineer
documenting existing impervious areas in each of the two drainage basins and the
effects of the proposed addition. After discussing the matter with Kathy Malers of Storm
Water Utility, the 1980 drainage report calculations are unclear. The calculations may
provide for more impervious area than the graphic depiction in the report, however it
needs to be sorted out.
