Offices are a permitted use in this zone, subject to Administrative Review by the Planning Director of the Hearing Officer. The request would not need to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board, unless a modification to a standard is needed. The request would have to comply with all applicable standards of the Land Use Code, in particular Article Three, Section Five, Division Three which relates to building placement. This code section requires a 15 foot `"build -to" line along Automation Way. Some exceptions are allowed according to the LUC. 2. Parking is required not to exceed a maximum. For medical or dental offices, the maximum aliowable parking would be 4.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet of office. For general office, the maximum would be 3.00 spaces per 1,000 square feet. 3. Electrical power will be brought in from Automation. An electrical contractor must complete the Commercial One ("C-1 ") form to determine entrance capacity. The location of the transformer must be coordinated with Light and Power. Transformers must not be in the landscape strip along the public street. They must be within ten feet of hard surface for emergency change -out. Transformers must be screened by a solid enclosure or by landscape material. Normal electrical charges will apply. For further information, please contact Doug Martine, 221-6700. 4. There is an eight inch water main and an eight inch sewer main in Automation Way that may be tapped to serve the site. Because there are multiple buildings and because each building must have its own water and sewer service, new mains must be brought into the site. These mains must be placed within exclusive easements with a minimum width of 20 feet for the water main and 30 feet for the sewer main. Water conservation standards for landscaping and irrigation will apply. Plant investment fees and water rights acquisition charge will also apply, payable at the time of building permit issuance. For further information, please contact Roger Buffington, 221-6681. 5. The Poudre Fire Authority will require internal drive aisles to have a minimurn of 20 feet inside and 40 feet outside turning radii. These fire lanes must feature curbs painted red and signs stating "No Parking — Fire Lane." Any internal floor space greater than 5,000 square feet that is not protected by fire -rated walls and doors will require an automatic fire extinguishing system. Addresses must be visible from Automation. Numerals on buildings must be no less than six inches and be of a contrasting color to the building exterior. Each building must be within 300 feet of a fire hydrant capable of delivering a minimum of 1,500 gallons per minute at 20 psi residual pressure. For further information, please contact Ron Gonzales, 221-6570. 6. The construction may trigger the requirement to obtain a fugitive dust permit from the Larimer County Health Department. 7. Trash enclosures must be large enough for not only the dumpster but also for recycle containers. Trash enclosures must be totally screened with a solid material that matches the buildings' exterior. The swinging gate may be metal. 8. The property does not necessarily have to be replatted. If new dedications for easements are needed, however, they would have to be dedicated by separate instrument. At your option, you may choose to replat in order to plat new easements or dedications. 9. Each building would be assessed the Commercial Capital Expansion Fee. This fee is $0.46 cents per square foot of floor area, payable at the time of building permit issuance. 10. Each building would also be assessed the Street Oversizing Fee. This fee varies depending on the category of general office or medical office. For an estimate of this fee, please contact Matt Baker, 221-6605. 11. The Engineering Department will require an additional two feet of right-of- way to be dedicated along Automation Way. The new sidewalk standard y s'sw requires the walk to be detached. Street trees are to be planted in the parkway, strip. For further information, please contact Marc Virata, 221- 6605. 12. Submittal for an Administrative Review will require a Utility Plan to be prepared by a licensed (State of Colorado) professional engineer. These plans will show how the public improvements are to be constructed. 13. Prior to issuance of a building permit, a Development Construction Permit will be required. There is a small fee associated with this permit. A development construction coordination meeting is also required. 14. Please contact Eric Bracke, 221-6630, to determine if an updated Transportation Impact Study (T.I.S.) will be required. If so, the scope of the study must be determined. Also, please contact Kathleen Reavis, 221-614.0, to determine if the scope of the T.I.S. needs to be expanded beyond the original study that was done several years ago in order to include analysis for bikes, pedestrians and transit.

The revised drawings reflect changes in response to staff comments given at the June 28 Conceptual Review Meeting and written comments from that meeting. The following is an itemized response that corresponds to the attached staff comments: LAND USE DATA: The request is to construct six, two-story office buildings of 6,064 square feet each, on a combination of Lots 6 and 7 of the Collindale Business Park, located at the northwest corner of Automation Way and Caribou Drive in Fort Collins. The subject site is currently owned by Bill Tiley and the Estate of Mae M. Tiley in care of University Realty, P.O. Box 471, Fort Collins, Colorado '80522. Developer and Contract Purchaser is Chapter 7 Ownership Group, 1605 Remington Street, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525. Galloway, Romero & Associates will represent the owner and developer for all correspondence and matters related to the development review process for PDP and Replat approvals. RESPONSE TO 7/8/99 WRITTEN STAFF COMMENTS: 1. No modifications are requested with the proposed PDP. The buildings have been oriented to provide a fifteen foot build -to line along the public street. A pedestrian connection is provided from the public way along the building fronts without forcing pedestrian crossing of parking areas. 2. The proposed uses are as follows: General Office (25%); Medical/Dental Office (75%). 3. The Commercial One form will be prepared by the electrical contractor, once chosen. The transformer locations shown have been coordinated with Light and Power and are located internal to the site and within ten feet of the parking/drive area for emergency change -out needs. The transformers have been screened by shrub beds around the facilities plus a landscaped buffer between ys70.psf.concept review response.doc the street and the units. They are located away from view from the public street as requested. Careful placement of trees along the street frontage will further obscure any visibility of the utility facilities from the public: way. 4. The water and sanitary lines will be extended from the main in Automation Way and looped through the drive aisles internal to the site. They will be located in a 174' combination utility/access/drainage easement. Water conservation standards for landscaping and irrigation will be met. 5. The internal drive aisles meet the required width and radii of the Poudre Fire Authority. There are no floor spaces proposed greater than 5,000 square feet. The structures are protected by fire rated walls and doors; therefore automatic fire extinguishing systems are not required. The address will be located on the monument sign, which is located parallel to the street right-of-way and visible to the public. The individual buildings will be identified by letters "A" through "F" which are a contrasting color to the buildings and greater than 6" high. One fire hydrant has been added north of the south entrance drive. Each building is within 300' of a fire hydrant. The Fire Department confirms the fire hydrants are capable of delivering a minimum of 1,500 gallons per minute at 20 psi residual pressure. 6. A fugitive dust permit will be obtained, if required. 7. Trash enclosures are sized large enough to accommodate recycling containers. The enclosures are made of the same brick material and color as used on the buildings. The trash enclosure gate is made of solid steel, painted to match the structure. S. The applicant will replat the two lots as one. Existing unused easements will be vacated and new easements rededicated by plat. 9. Advisory comment on Commercial Capital Expansion Fee is noted. 10. Advisory comment on Street Oversizing Fee is noted. 11. An additional two feet of right-of-way will be dedicated along Automation Way by replat. A 4.5 foot sidewalk will be constructed separated by a 6.5 foot landscaped parkway. We have satisfied the requirements of Section 3.2.2 of the Land Use Code with trees spaced at 40' on center along the street frontage. 12. A utility plan is included in the PDP submittal. 13. Advisory comment on the requirement for a Development Constriction Permit and construction coordination rneeting is noted. 14. An updated Transportation Impact Study is provided with the submittal. Analysis for bikes, pedestrians and transit has been included in the new T.I.S. We trust the revisions adequately address your comments. Please let me know if you need additional information at this time.
