From: Alison Chilcott, Planner II and Bob Joseph, Director
Date: March 4, 2004
Subject: Fall River Village Final Planned Unit Development (PUD)
Application #04-01 for Fall River Village and Development
Agreement
Background.
The Lane III Group, Inc. has submitted a final planned unit development application for
511 West Elkhorn Avenue.
The Town Board conditionally approved a rezoning request for this property to “CO”
Outlying Commercial with the Planned Mixed-Use PUD-M overlay district and a preliminary
PUD application at the February 10, 2004 Town Board meeting. If approved by Town Board
the final PUD plans, i.e. the plat and
development plan, will be recorded at the
Larimer County Clerk and Recorder’s
Office.
Some conditions of preliminary PUD
approval were informational and have not
been carried over as conditions of final plat
approval.
A development agreement addresses an
extended time frame for removal of the
homes and resident relocation. This draft
agreement is included in the Town Board
packets.

Action.
A. Approval of the final application for the Fall River Village PUD #04-01, which includes a
plat and development plan.
1. Approval of this plan shall include approval of waivers/minor modifications
discussed in the staff findings section of the Planning Commission staff report.
2. Compliance items #3 in Greg Sievers’ March 4, 2004 memo to Alison Chilcott
concerning the final construction plans.
3. Compliance with Greg White’s December 30, 2003 letter to Alison Chilcott.
4. The sewer easement recorded at Book 1859 Page 849 shall be vacated by
separate document and a new easement dedicated prior to issuance of a building
permit for buildings to be located on top of the easement and with review and
approval by the Estes Park Sanitation District.
5. Bridge capacity shall be posted.
6. The subdivision covenants shall address whether or not short-term nightly rentals
are allowed on Lots 1 through 7.
7. Extra care shall be taken to ensure survival of the spruce tree in front of the
existing single family house and between proposed Buildings 1 and 2. A note
shall be added to the construction and landscaping plans that require an arborist
to oversee installation of utilities near the spruce tree between Buildings 1 and 2.
8. Private open area shall be permanently reserved as open area, and ongoing
maintenance ensured. Staff recommends accomplishing this by designating
permanent open area on the first condominium map, ensuring maintenance in
the declaration and conditioning preliminary condominium map approval on
this.
