Prospect Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Jerry, City Staff has reviewed your submittal for Evergreen Park, Lot 3, IL Site Plan Review, and offers the following comments: 1. Please add a note to the site plan stating that outside storage is not allowed until the remainder of the lot is brought into compliance with the parking code. 2. since there will be vehicular access to the north and south v sides of the building, the lot will have to comply with the parking code from the street to the east end of the building, ie. a 10' landscape strip is required behind the sidewalk on Red Cedar Circle, a 5' landscape strip is required along the north and south lot lines, and 6% of the interior parking/drive area is required to be in landscaped islands. You can work with Peter Barnes in Building Inspection on ways to accomplish these requirements. 3. The lot should be hard surfaced around the building. 4. If the only access into the building is from a door on the west wall, then the parking code would apply to the west edge of the building, unless the fire department requires that the an access drive circle the building. The parking code.would _ apply to the entire site at such time as outside storage is 5. Please include a driveway detail on the site plan. Will the gate be chain link? 6. You will need to take out a curb cut permit in order to construct the driveway. You can apply for this permit with the Engineering Department. If you have questions about this process, please contact Mike Herzig at 221-6750. 7. The driveway gate should be set back from the street far enough to allow for a vehicle to be stopped at the closed gate and still be off the street. 8., Please dimension the street features within the right-of-way. 9 9. No drainage study has been submitted. 287 North College AvenUe P.O. BON 580 • Fort Collins, CO 805212-0=S0 • (303) 22"1-o7 0 10. one item already discussed is onsite detention. You will have to come to an agreement with the Stormwater Department on the issue of phasing the project to reduce fees due now, as well as phasing drainage improvements. 0 11. Stewart and Associates have been in contact with Glen r Schlueter at the Stormwater Department to discuss offsite drainage easements. Glen will still need to see a drainage report which fully evaluates the drainage plan. The drainage study should address full lot build out to assure that future runoff can be accommodated. ✓ 12. Please show the existing 6' utility easement on the site plan. 13. Water and Sewer mains are existing in the street, and taps for the services to the building should be made to these mains when service is desired. ✓ 14. Please add two street shade trees to the landscaped area along Red Cedar Circle, one on each side of the driveway. The City Forester recommends that these trees be Ash, Locust, Linden, or Hackberry. 15. Please add a note to the site plan which states that any storage or use of flammable liquids may require a hazardous materials impact analysis, depending on the amount and nature of the materials. 16. Also, add a note stating that any future uses on the remainder of the lot will require review by the Planning Director and/or the Planning and Zoning Board. 17. Please add a Land Use Data table to the site plan. This table should give in acres or square feet, the total lot size, total building size, the building footprint size, the area in landscaping (%), the area in drive (%), the number of employees (0?), and the height of the building. Also, include a statement regarding the intended use of the- -building.. Describe the number of vehicle trips to and from the site per day and approximately when these trips would occur. 18. Staff recommends that you provide 2 or 3 parking spaces on the west side of the lot north of the gate (see attachment). We recommend these be located north of the gate because we are also recommending that you move the proposed doors to the south side of the building and there would be less conflict with vehicles pulling around the building and vehicles temporarily parked outside of the building. It would be preferable considering that the north side is the shady side where snow would last longer in the Spring and ice would build up. In general the south side openings would provide natural light, heat, and would be more energy efficient if the building were ever to be heated. 19. Please indicate on the site plan, theuses of adjacent land within 150' of this property. If the land is vacant, please indicate that it is "lot x of x subdivision- vacant". 20. Add a title across the top of the site plan "EVERGREEN PARK, LOT 3- IL SITE PLAN REVIEW". 21. Please add signature blocks for the Planning Director and for the owner, including'a notary public signature. The owner's signature needs to include the owner certification of acceptance of conditions and restrictions as set forth on the site plan. I will enclose a sample of these signature blocks. 22. Please resubmit the plans .on 24" by 36" sheets. The final mylars must be 24" by 3611, no sticky back is permitted, and all.signatures must be original and in black ink.' 23. When you have made revisions, please submit 5 copies to the Planning Department for review. This concludes staff comments at this time. In order to schedule a Public Hearing for this project and to notify the affected property owners of the hearing, I will need to have the APO list and labels as soon as they are completed. I will need to have 8 to 10 days notice in order to get the letters out and to notify the newspaper. If you have any questions about these comments or would like to schedule a time to meet to discuss them, please contact me at 221- 6750. Sincerely, Kirsten__Whetstone Project Planner.
