Dear Mr. Smith:
The purpose of this letter is to request a waiver of storm drainage
detention requirements for the Helmshire House P.U.D. located at 1204 So.
College Avenue. The 25,000 square foot site presently contains an abandoned
service station complex which includes a service station structure, asphalt
parking areas, and some landscapping. The proposed P.U.D. would in general
reduce the impervious areas.
Based upon no overall change in storm drainage conditions incidental
to the P.U.D., a waiver of storm drainage detention requirements is hereby
requested.

RE: Helmshire Inn
9
Devel opmenti�___:
The Planning staff recently received the attached request from Mr. Douglas
Konkel regarding the Helmshire Inn. As the letter notes, the City is
currently reviewing a development proposal to expand the Inn. As part of
the financing agreements for that addition, Mr. Konkel is requesting, on
behalf of the lender, United Bank, copies of the development agreements
related to the project and confirmation that the owner/developer has
properly complied with all provisions of those agreements and other
"requirements of the City of Fort Collins with respect to the development
of the EXISTING Helmshire House Inns project as well as the proposed
addition".
As you are aware, the full amount of required use tax was not collected on
the building permit for this property. Does this request by United Bank and
the request for confirmation on compliance with the City's necessary
requirements give us the opportunity to collect additional use tax
retroactively? I realize it was an error on our part and not a conscious
act of Mr. McCabe's, so my intent is not to penalize him but to make the
correction, if possible. I would appreciate your help with this request. I
have called Mr. Konkel to advise him that we are preparing a response this
week. Please forward your information to me as soon as possible. Thank you.

RE: Helmshire House P.U.D. Phase 2
I had Dave Stringer check Helmshire House for any public improvements left
incomplete with Phase I. The only item left incomplete was that the alley
was paved deleting a required pan down the center. Harry had given Dave a
letter stating that it would be constructed by June 15, 1985. This was
required as a condition of the CO and has not been complied with. As a
result we will require it prior to the issuance of the building permit on
any future phase.
The original Phase two had no public improvements and there was no
development agreement, but with the new Phase 2 and required improvements
we will require one.

Amended plan to delete permanent residence and renlacinq it with
5 additional rooms. Located on the east side of College Ave., south
of Edwards Ave.
1. A concrete pan down the center of the alley is required before further
work is done.
2. Traffic had a concern over employee parking. An additional four spaces
may be needed. Staff resolved that an agreement could be reached between
the City and the applicant, which would require the applicant to provide
the parking spaces at a future date, if it is determined at that time
that the spaces are needed to avoid offsite (on -street) parking
conflicts.
3. CDBG should be contacted to see if they want to move the house which is
on site.
4. The variance to storm drainage detention needs to be amended.
5. More landscaping would be desirable in the area of the alley.

Dear Eldon:
The City staff has reviewed the application for Preliminary and
final approval for Helmshire House Phase II (#30-83c) and offers
the following comments:
1.Water services not abandoned with the first phase must be
abandoned with the second.
2. The 3/4" water line which is to remain is not adequate to
serve the building. No looping of service will be allowed.
3. The Fire protection systems in the existing building must be
extended to protect the proposed building.
4. A new Development Agreement is required.
5. Note #5 should be changed to delete section reading, "caused
by construction of the Helmshire House", and the word "repaired"
should be changed to "replaced".
6. The alley must be repaved to accomodate the drain pan, which
must be installed prior to the issuance of a building permit.
7. If it is determined that additional parking spaces are
needed at a future date, the applicant shall install
such spaces within three (3) months of being notified of such
need.

TO: Rich Shannon, Interim City Manager
THRU: Linda Hopkins, Acting Director, Community Development Department
FROM: Bonnie Tripoli, Development Coordinator
DATE: December 30, 1985
RE: Helmshire House Phase 2 Development Agreement
The two items (water lines and streets) under Special Conditions are items
that had not been taken care of with the first phase of this Development.
To assure that they will be completed with this phase, we are requiring
that they be completed prior to the issuance of the building permit.
The alley was not paved according to the plans on file with the first
phase. The City gave Mr. McCabe the date of June 15, 1985 by which to
complete said improvements. This was to allow him to proceed with the
opening of his business until the weather would permit the paving to be
corrected. Since it has not yet been completed to the City's satisfaction
using a deadline to require the improvements and because it will be the
only way for vehicles to access the property, we are requiring the alley be
completed prior to the issuance of the building permit. I have attached
all correspondence regarding this matter.
The abandonment of three water services at the main was requested at
preliminary stage for Phases One and Two but was not followed up on the
final for Phase One. As it turns out, abandoning all services at one time
(phases 1 & 2) makes more sense from both the City's point of view and
probably the Developer's. This way College will only have to be shut down
once for a short period of time rather than twice in a year. Also from the
Developer's point of view it would be more economical to do them all at
once. City Code requires that the water system be installed as required
prior to the issuance of any building permit, so we are just clarifying the
requirement of the Code in this particular case.

RE:
1204
South College
Ave, Helmshire House PUD
Please find attached rorrespnndance regarding the Helmshire
House PUD. These letters and memos concern the concrete alley
pan and other items which were not installed or corrected by
the developer in accordance with the development agreement or
Utility plans for this development.
The building was issued a temporary Certificate of Occupancy
on March 7, 1985 based upon the developers written commitment
to complete and correct the public improvements, (T C O
was extended to September 15, 1985.) These improvements were
not corrected in the time frame specified and when the
Helmshire House Phase II was submitted for P&Z approval a new
Development Agreement was drawn up which required the
completion of the improvements from the original development.
I have recently been informed that Phase II will soon be sold
and will no longer be a part of the Helmshire PUD If this
happens the City will not have any leverage to require the
completion of the improvements other then the T CO"
Hopefully, this information will assist you in determining
what action we can take in order to force the developer to
complete these improvements, If I can be of any further
assistance Please contact me.

Storm Drainage Utility
City of Fort Collins
P.O. Box 580
Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 /
Dear Glen:
the Helmshire Inn located at the Southeast corner of South College
Avenue and Edwards Street. It is an existing bed and breakfast establishment
that is adding 1000 square feet of asphalt parking. There is some interior
remodeling that is also being done.
The site drains from Southwest to Northeast. College Avenue has a high
point in this block and drains both North and South. There is a catch basin
in the College Avenue gutter at the Edwards Street corner. It accepts only
College Avenue runoff, and I believe the storm drain flows back South to
Pitkin Street. There does not appear to be any storm water overtopping of
College Avenue at this intersection.
Edwards Street drains East in the South gutter. The alley drains from
South to North in the inverted crown of the existing asphalt. The main parking
area has an inverted crown that drains from West to East and flows North
in the alley to the Edwards Street gutter. The existing asphalt parking
spaces on both sides of the alley drain to the center of the alley.
It is proposed to construct the six new parking spaces so that they
also drain to the centerline of the alley.
The existing site does not have any offsite drainage entering it other
than the alley flows entering from the South. The runoff from this site
does not flow onto any private property. The entire runoff flows to the
Edwards Street south gutter.
The existing site does not have onsite storm water detention. The
proposed additional asphalt parking develops 0.10 cubic feet per second of
runoff in a ten—year storm.
Because of the very small increase of runoff and no practical means
of detention, we are requesting a variance to the onsite detention
requirement. We are not proposing any erosion control devices for this small

construction project. When the 1000 square feet is stripped of topsoil,
it will be lower than the alley asphalt and, therefore, not cause silting
onto the alley. It is expected the base and asphalt will be placed in a
very short period of time so that no erosion will occur.
The runoff calculations and the drainage plan are enclosed as part of
this report. If you have any questions regarding this site, please call.

Dear Mr. McCabe,
June 29, 1983
Regarding your request for a variance in the detention requirements for
the Helmshire House P.U.D. located at 1204 S. College Avenue I have the
following comments:
Because the proposed improvements will reduce the amount of exisiting
runoff from the site due to the P.U.D. landscaping requirements I see no
problems with your request.
Your request for a variance in the detention requirements for Helmshire
House P.U.D. is hereby approved provided that upon completion of the grading for
the site no points of concentration are created that will cause erosion to
adjacent property or the alley located on the east side of the site.

Dear Lloyd,

Concerning your request for a variance in the detention requirements for the
above referenced project, I have the following comments:
Since the developed site will actually be increasing the amount of pervious area
thus reducing the peak flow and the routing of the runoff will be the same as
now exists I see no problem with your request.
A variance In the detention requirements for the Helmshire House P.U.D. is
hereby approved.

Re: Helmshire House PUD
Dear Harry:
On March 7, 1985 the City Engineer's office agreed to release its hold on
1204 S. College provided that the conditions as stipulated in your letter
of February 25, 1985 were met, with the exception of the installation of
the alley pan; this was delayed until June 15, 1985. As of this date, the
installation of the concrete alley pan, the request for encroachment, or
the cleanup of the sidewalk, street, and gutter have not been completed.
Please be informed that until such time as the conditions we have discussed
per my letter to you dated March 7, 1985 have been met, the permanent
Certificate of Occupancy will not be issued. In my opinion, the City has
been more than patient in this matter. However, it is now time for the
necessary work to be completed in a timely manner.
Enclosed is an encroachment application form, a copy of my March letter,
and a copy of your letter from February 1985. The intent of this letter is
to clarify the City Engineer's position in this matter and to eliminate any
misunderstanding as to our intention of using the Certificate of Occupancy
process to ootain the public improvements as approved on the Helmshire
House PUD utility plans.
