Dear Mr. Bartran,
c ,rvices
Staff has reviewed your submittal for English Ranch Fourth Filing
Subdivision and offers the following comments:
1. Review of these plans should not be construed as a commitment
that telephone facilities sufficient to serve this project are
presently available. US WEST will provide telephone service
in accordance with the rates and tariffs on file with the
Colorado ]Public Utilities Commission.
2. Any relocation of existing telephone facilities required by
these plans will be paid for by the developer.
3. Telephone facilities generally occupy rear lot utility
easements, which must be located on terrain which permits
trenching operations.
4. The developer is responsible for provision of all trench,
street crossings, and ditch crossings for telephone facilities
within the project, and the developer pays up front
construction costs for facilities within the development.
5. Street light location(s) have been shown on the attached
redlined landscape plan. Adjust street trees as necessary to
meet clearance requirements (40' for shade trees).
6. Mapping informs me that there is already a Coventry Drive in
the City of Fort Collins. Fire is concerned that Kendell and
an existing street named Kimball are too similar. Please
contact Mike Pretz at the Fire Authority if you have
questions.
7. The plat does not close, it is off 0.13' North and South and
18.01' East and West. The Northeast corner of Section 32 does
not meet ,State requirements. Please submit a corrected plat
for our Engineering Staff to review.
8. Mapping wants to know why the lots start with number 200 and
the Tracts with E, if this plat stands on it's own?
9. Public Service comments that the landscape plan shows
Hawthorne: trees within the 15' utility easement along the
south sidle of Horsetooth Road. They request that a note be
added to the landscape plan stating that all trees will be
planted a minimum of 4' away from the final location of the
gas line. (They can be within the easement.)
10. Fire hydrants must be located within 400' of all lots. Please
show the locations on the site plan.
11. The temporary drainage swale along the east side of the
project will require an easement. A variance should also be
requested) in writing, if no under -drain or concrete pan is
planned, if the bed slope will be less than 2%. At the
current stage of build out a concrete pan is not required but
if and when further development occurs east of this project
site one may be needed.
12. Please refer to Stormwater's "project comment sheet" for
additional comments regarding the drainage and grading plan
and report.
13. If the City is to be responsible for maintaining the pond, the
Tract needs to be deeded to the City and no fence built around
it which would impede maintenance access. Rear lot fencing
for Lots 200 through 204 should be limited to 4' in height, or
to an open design, such as a three rail fence. Six foot high
solid fencing along drainage areas maintained by the City are
problematic as people have been known to discard lawn
clippings, trash, etc. over the fence. The old "out of sight,
out of mind" mentality. Please provide a description of the
fencing and notes, on the plat.
14. Please indicate solar oriented lots with a symbol on the plat.
Include a note stating that a variance to the Solar
Orientation Ordinance was granted at the time of Preliminary
approval by the Planning and Zoning Board.
15. The soils report is outdated and requires an addendum to
current pavement standards. Please resubmit to Kerrie
Ashbeck.
16. Please refer to Engineering's "project comment sheet" for
additional Engineering Comments.
17. Please refer to redlined utility plans for additional
engineering and utility comments.
18. Parkland fees are currently $779.00 per dwelling unit and are
collected at the time of building permit issuance. Include a
note that the Horsetooth Road landscaping, including the entry
feature, will not be maintained by Parks and Recreation.
19. The dryland mix is an excellent selection, all natives, no
exotic or pest grasses. Natural Resources is pleased.
This concludes; staff comments at this time. In order to stay on
schedule for the February 28, 1994 Planning and Zoning Board
hearing, please note the following deadlines:
Plan revisions are due February 9th, 1994 by 12:00 noon.
PMT's, colored renderings, and 10 prints are due February
15th.
Final myl.ars and other documents are due February 25th.
Please be aware that, if this is a Final PUD and a development
agreement: and utility plans are required for this project,
these documents and plans must be signed prior to the Planning
and Zoning Board Hearing. If not, a condition will be placed
on the project giving you 60 days to finalize the plans and
agreement:, after which time, you must submit a request for an
extension from the Planning and Zoning Board.
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,
