the Developer nor the Corporate Surety may question the manner of doing such
work or the letting of any such contracts for the doing of any such work.
Upon completion of such Work the Surety and/or the Developer shall promptly

2) Specific Performance. The City may in writing direct the Surety or the Developer
to cause the Work to be undertaken and completed within a specified reasonable

been submitted in the form of a Performance Bond, the City may demand that the

the work, plus the City's estimated overhead expenses as defined herein, in-
cluding any other costs and damages for which the Surety may be liable hereunder,
but not exceeding the amount set forth on the face of the Performance Bond,
which money shall be deemed to be held by the City for the purpose of reimbursing
the City for any costs incurred in completing the Work as hereinbefore specified,
and the balance shall be returned to the Surety. This money shall be deposited
with the City within 10 days after written demand therefor, and if the Surety

to proceed against the Surety with whatever legal action is required to obtain
the deposit of such sum.

cash, certified check, or other arrangement making the Financial Guarantee im-
mediately accessible to the City, the City may, after notice to the Developer,
deposit the Financial Guarantee in its General Account. The City may then pro-
ceed to complete the Work, reimburse itself for the cost of completion as de-
fined hereunder, and return the balance to the Developer.

Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 85013
Applicant: Uhde/Nelson, Inc.
Location: 5600 block of Brooklyn Boulevard
Request: Site and Building Plan
The applicant requests site and building plan approval to construct a two -storey,
8,900 sq. ft. office building north of the Girl Scout offices (5601) on the west
side of the 5600 block of Brooklyn Boulevard. The property in question is zoned
Cl and is bounded on the east by the Brooklyn Boulevard frontage road, on the
south and west by the Girl Scout offices, and on the north by the Brooklyn Law
Center office building. The proposed office use is a permitted use in the C1
zoning district.
Access to the site will be from the Brooklyn Boulevard frontage road. Because
the site fronts on a service road, the setback and greenstrip requirements are
the normal 35' and 15' respectively, rather than the greater requirements for
developments adjacent to a major thoroughfare (50' setback and 35' greenstrip).
This is because of an ordinance amendment a few years ago which allows for normal
setbacks adjacent to major thoroughfares in cases where there are mitigating
circumstances such as frontage roads, noise walls, etc.
The site plan calls for 44 parking stalls and one proof -of -parking stall west of
the building to meet the regular office parking requirement of 45 spaces. One
handicapped stall will be placed near the south access to the building.
The landscape plan calls for nine (9) deciduous shade trees (Sugar Maple, Red
Royal Maple, White Ash) along the south and west perimeter greenstrips. These
should be especially effective in providing parking lot shading. Two ornamental
trees (Canada Red Cherry, Red Splendor Crab) are scheduled at the southeast corner
of the building and another along the west side. A number of evergreen trees
(Norway Spruce, Colorado Green Spruce) are proposed in the major green areas to
the east and north of the building. Deciduous shrubs (Goldflame Spirea, Redtwigged
Dogwood, Purple Leaf Sandcherry) are proposed in clusters within the perimeter
greenstrip areas and around the building. A gravel mulch strip is also indicated
around most of the building. No area for a trash enclosure has been indicated on
the plans.
The grading, drainage, and utility plan calls for runoff to drain toward the south
side of the site where it will be collected by a single catch basin. That catch
basin will be connected to City storm sewer by a private storm sewer line which
will run to the southeast corner of the property and then within the Brooklyn Boule-
vard right-of-way for 140' to the public storm sewer line. The City Engineer has
also noted, in a memo dated May 2, 1985, that, since the property was formerly used
for residential purposes, additional utility charges may be required to provide
for connection to municipal water and sanitary sewer systems. We recommend a condi-
tion requiring the developer to enter into a utility hookup agreement prior to the
issuance of permits in the event that such hookup charges are necessary.
The building elevations indicate a brick exterior to the building with a two -storey
glass atrium area at the south entrance to the building. A basement mechanical
room is not counted toward gross floor area so long as it does not extend more
than 4' above ground level and is not regular office space. Plan notes indicate
that the entire building will be fire sprinklered. Site lighting is provided by
four lighting fixtures on 20' high poles, two in the west greenstrip and two in
the south greenstrip.
Altogether, the plans appear to be in order and approval is recommended subject to
at least the following conditions:
5-9-85 -1-
Application No. 85013 continued
1. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building
Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance
of permits.
2. Grading, drainage, utility and berming plans are subject to review
and approval by the City Engineer, prior to the issuance of permits.
3. A site performance agreement and supporting financial guarantee
(in an amount to be determined by the City Manager) shall be
submitted prior to the issuance of permits to assure completion
of approved site improvements.
4. Any outside trash disposal facilities and rooftop mechanical
equipment shall be appropriately screened from view.
5. The building is to be equipped with an automatic fire extinguishing
system to meet NFPA standards and shall be connected to a central
monitoring device in accordance with Chapter 5 of the City Ordinances.
6. An underground irrigation system shall be installed in all landscaped
areas to facilitate site maintenance.
7. Plan approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to Chapter
34 of the City Ordinances.
8. B612 curb and gutter shall be provided around all parking and driving
areas.
9. The site and building plans shall be certified by a registered archi-
tect prior to the issuance of building permits.
10. Plan approval acknowledges proof -of -parking for one parallel stall
west of the building. The applicant shall agree in writing to
install this additional space upon a determination by the City that
insufficient parking exists on the site.
