The Luminaire Locations table on the photometric plan should be revised to show the correct
number of each fixture (should read 3 AA2 and 9 WIN fixtures).Topic: Site Plan
NOTED IN LUMINAIRE SCHEDULE.
Comment Number:1 Comment Originated: 03/11/2013
Parking numbers are within the allowable maximum number of spaces; however, there are 2
HC spaces shown on the plans, so the parking data should be revised to show this. The
spaces along Mason Street extend out closer to the street than Building 1 by several feet.
Section 3.10.4 of the TOD requires that parking not be located between the street and the front or
side of a building. A modification to this standard could be requested if parking is ultimately
proposed as shown on the plan. A MODIFICATION HAS BEEN REQUESTED.
Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 03/11/2013
The setback for the parking along Mason Street (an arterial street) is 15' from back of r-o-w. If
there is no way to provide this setback, a modification to this standard could be requested.

Please clarify on the trash enclosure note how materials and/or colors of the enclosure will be
complementary to the proposed buildings. NOTED, SEE UPDATED DRAWINGS.
Comment Number: 4 Comment Originated: 03/11/2013
Both the C-G district and the TOD require buildings be oriented toward streets rather than
toward parking lots. Providing walkway connections out to the streets (as shown on the site
plan), as well as entrances and storefronts oriented toward the streets will help address this
standard. Building one appears to have at least some entrances oriented to the streets but
Building two shows west elevations with and without doors along Mason.
NOTED, SEE UPDATED DRAWINGS.
Comment Number: 5 Comment Originated: 03/11/2013
The CG district and TOD require that pedestrian -oriented outdoor spaces be placed next to
activity areas (ie. shops, offices, street comers, etc.). The area at the SE comer of Building 2
appears to be a plaza area. Please clarify the intent of this area and how it would serve as an
activity/outdoor space. NOTED, PLAZA LOCATED AT NORTH BUILDING #1.

1. While this site is within 500' of a Natural Habitat or Feature, the requirement for an ECS (as per Section
3.4.1(D) of the Land Use Code) has been waived with the approval of the Director for the following
reasons:
1. The project is separated from any natural features, e.g., a wetland over 1/3 of an acre and an irrigation
ditch, by a distance greater than the buffer standard should it be applied and by Mason Street, and
2. The site does not have any known natural habitat value.
2. The applicant should make note of Article 3.2.1(C) that requires developments to submit plans that "...(4)
protects significant trees, natural systems, and habitat". Note that a significant tree is defined as a tree
having DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of six inches or more. If any trees on site have a DBH of greater
than six inches, a review of the trees shall be conducted with Tim Buchanan, City Forester (221 6361) to
determine the status of the existing trees and any mitigation requirements as the result of development
impacts.
3. With respect to landscaping and design, the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code, in Article 3.2.1 (E)(2)(3),
requires that you use native plants and grasses in your landscaping or re landscaping and reduce
bluegrass lawns as much as possible.
4. The City's green building program has many programs that may benefit your project. Resources are
available at the Green Building web page: http://www.fcgov.com/greenbuilding/. Of particular interest
may be the Integrated Design Assistance Program, which offers financial incentives and free technical
support to those interested in delivering high performance buildings that exceed building code
requirements for energy performance. Gary Schroeder (970 221 6395) is the contact person for this
program. This is the direct link to the web page for this program: http://www.fcgov.com/conservation/biz

1. Since the property is proposed to be subdivided, adequate parking should be provided for all portions of
the site and cross easements maybe needed. Parking maximums for vehicles are 4:1,000 SF for retail
and 3:1,000 SF for general office.
2. Bicycle parking requirements for office and retail use are 1 space/4,000 square feet of GFA or
not less than 4 spaces. Of the bicycle parking, 20% must be enclosed and 80% in fixed bicycle racks.
3. The site is within the TOD, so these standards will apply. The previously -approved project may already
address a number of these in the approved design. Of particular importance are the character and image
standards of Section 3.10.5. The intent of this district is to encourage land uses, densities and design that
will enhance and support the transit stations along the Mason Corridor and include buildings that are oriented
toward the pedestrian. The landscaped parking setback along an arterial street (see Zoning comment # 1)
was required in the LUC when the original project was approved and there was apparently not a modification
approved for this standard. If this standard cannot be met with the proposed project design, a modification
could be requested.
4. Buildings in the TOD have a minimum height of 20' (measured to dominant roof line). See Section 3.10.5.17
for more detail in measuring height for this particular standard.
5. Office and retail uses are a Type 1 review in the General Commercial District, as long as the retail
component is less than 25,000 SF (current proposal is less than this amount of retail).
6. The proposed development project is subject to a Type 1 review and public hearing, the decision maker
for Type 1 hearings is an Administrative Hearing Officer. The applicant for this development request is
not required to hold a neighborhood meeting for a Type 1 hearing, but if you would like to have one to
notify your neighbors of the proposal, please let me know and I can help you in setting a date, time and
location for a meeting. Neighborhood Meetings are a great way to get public feedback and avoid
potential issues that may occur later in the review process.
7. Please see the Development Review Guide at www.fcgov.com/drg. This online guide features a color
coded flowchart with comprehensive, easy to read information on each step in the process. This guide
includes links to just about every resource you need during development review.
8. This development proposal will be subject to all applicable standards of the Fort Collins Land Use Code
(LUC), including Article 3 General Development Standards. The entire LUC is available for your review on
the web at http:l/www.colocode.com/ftcollins/landuse/begin.htm.
9. If this proposal is unable to satisfy any of the requirements set forth in the LUC, a Modification of Standard
Request will need to be submitted with your formal development proposal. Please see Section 2.8.2 of
the LUC for more information on criteria to apply for a Modification of Standard.
10. Please seethe Submittal Requirements and Checklist at:
http://www.fcgov.com/developmentreview/applications.php.
11. The request will be subject to the Development Review Fee Schedule that is available in the Community
Development and Neighborhood Services office. The fees are due at the time of submittal of the required
documents for the appropriate development review process by City staff and affected outside reviewing
agencies. Also, the required Transportation Development Review Fee must be paid at time of submittal.
12. When you are ready to submit your formal plans, please make an appointment with Community
Development and Neighborhood Services at (970)221-6750.
Pre -Submittal Meetinas for Building Permits.
Pre -Submittal meetings are offered to assist the designer/builder by assuring, early on in the
design, that the new commercial or multi -family proiects are on track to complying with all of the
