HomeMy WebLinkAboutCZC Comment ResponsesAlso, I’ve finished my review of the CZC/DR application. This email contains all required revisions and comments that should be addressed in revised plans and/or additional items. The elevations don’t depict a south elevation for the 3-story building, is it the same as the north? Response: South Elevation has been added. Design Review comments: Please explain how the proposed elevations comply with the following design standards or revise the elevations to comply or request a design standard exception if needed. Explanation: The north end of the building facing the main entry of the Great Wall does not appear to meet this standard. Response: Pop out added on north end and south end of building to incorporate material change. Explanation: The north end of the building facing the main entry of the Great Wall has a span greater than 30’ without modulation. Response: Pop out added on north end and south end of building to incorporate material change. Explanation: Overhang required within 20’ of public entries (also required by UDC 11-3A-19A.4d). Response: Building overhang and canopy added at building entrance. If the roll-up doors on the west elevation will be visible at all above the wall additional landscaping should be provided in those areas to screen the doors; from the perspective elevations it appears they will be. Response: Roll up doors along Eagle Rd. have been reduced to be 7’-0” tall. Fence will be 6’-4” tall. Doors will not be visible. See perspective rendering.  a 5’ wide pedestrian connection needs to be provided to the main building entrance from the perimeter sidewalk along Eagle Rd. per UDC 11-3A-19A.4a. Response: 5’ sidewalk provided along north property line. In conversation with Bill Parson, he said we would be allowed to reduce landscape buffer along north property to around 2’ if sidewalk is provided along north boundary that connects to building entry.  a 5’ wide perimeter landscape buffer is required adjacent to parking and vehicular use areas along the south & north boundaries, landscaped per the standards in UDC 11-3B-8C (if stone mulch is used, vegetative groundcover at a minimum 70% coverage at maturity is required). Either provide wheel stops in the parking stalls adjacent to the buffer at the southern boundary to prevent vehicle overhang or widen the landscape buffer to 7’ to allow for overhang (parking stalls may be deceased to 17’ in length) in accord with UDC 11-3C-5B.4. Response: 7’ landscaper buffer with 17’ deep stalls provided at parking area. Please submit a floor plan depicting the square footage of the office area. Response: Floor plan included. Office area is – 865 SF How is the retention pond above ground within the buffer along Eagle Rd. where landscaping is proposed going to work? Response: Landscape buffer will contain rock mulch for drainage. Site Plan:  Depict the 35’ wide street buffer along Eagle Rd. measured from the ultimate curb location as anticipated by ITD in accord with UDC 11-3B-7C.1a (depict the ultimate curb location on the plan along with a dimension demonstrating compliance, edge of pavement & ROW) Response: Note added to civil plan calling out the edge of pavement and dimension to ROW line at ultimate curb location.  Depict low impact security lighting on the plan in accord with UDC 11-3A-16A and 11-4-3-34D (per CUP condition #2g) Response: See revised photometric plan  Depict height of bicycle rack on detail that demonstrates compliance with UDC 11-3C (min. 34” in height) Response: See revised civil site plan.  Depict a secondary emergency access to the site per UDC 11-4-3-34H (per CUP condition #2i, k) – the existing temporary access via Eagle Rd. on the Great Wall property to the north doesn’t qualify Secondary emergency access to connect to apartments at north east edge of project.  Depict pedestrian lighting along the multi-use pathway along Eagle Rd. and a detail of the light poles per CUP condition #3 consistent with the standards in UDC 11-3H-4C.3 Electrical Landscape Plan:  the landscaping in the buffer along the east boundary of the site needs to be revised to include a mix of evergreen & deciduous trees, shrubs, lawn or other vegetative ground cover, which results in a barrier that allows trees to touch at the time of the tree maturity per UDC 11-3B- 9C.1 (CUP condition #2a, b). If vegetative groundcover rather than lawn is provided, it must have at least a 70% coverage at the time of maturity with mulch used under and around the plants per UDC 11-3B-5N. Response: Plans revised to show mixture of landscaping along east boundary.  Submit a public pedestrian easement (14’ wide) for the multi-use pathway if it’s located outside of the ROW. Response: Pedestrian easement to be submitted.  A cross-access easement shall be recorded granting access to the properties to the north (#S1104233802), south (#R7476320020 and R7476320010) and east (#R0748300100) via the backage road proposed along the east boundary of this site; a recorded copy of the easement shall be submitted to the Planning Division prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy for the site. Response: Cross-access easement will be recorded prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. I’m still working on the design review.  photometric plan needs to depict light reading at east property line (not the edge of the driveway) – per UDC 11-3A-11C.2, the effective zone of light can’t trespass on abutting residential properties. Please include a detail of the light fixture on the plan that demonstrates compliance with UDC 11-3A-11C. Response: See revised photometric plan and light fixture sheet.  No trash service is proposed for this site, right? Response: This is correct.  AutoCad file of conceptual engineering plans including pipe sizes and profiles, in a format that complies with the specifications for project Drawings found here Submit PDF copy of the conceptual engineering plans in the format specified above. Response: PDF and DWG files have been submitted.
