Rocky Mountain Tap LLC 1071 Courtesy Road Louisville, CO 80027 720-261-5567 To: Department of Planning and Building Safety, City of Louisville Re: Permanent Land Use Permit Request for Rocky Mountain Tap Beer Garden (1077 Courtesy Road) To City of Louisville Planning Commission, We are requesting your review and approval for a PUD amendment to expand the permitted uses of Lot #1 of 1077 Courtesy Road, Louisville, CO 80027 to amend the previous approved PUD for DELO in 2015 for the use of our lot as an extension of our restaurant area for patrons to eat, drink and gather outside within the lots boundaries. For such purpose, we intend to utilize metal fencing complimentary to what is used in front of other DELO units and a single egress access to contain the approximate 10,000 sq. ft. area while providing roughly —6,600 of gross usable area. On the perimeter of the pad site, we will be utilizing a 42" metal fence; the location and design shown in the attached plans. We will utilize a removable gate on the southeast corner to prohibit access/egress while providing easy emergency/utility access when required. The east side near Courtesy Road will be blockaded by 42" planter boxes, spaced 2" apart, filled with native vegetation. Within the boundaries of this area, we intend to utilize approximately 3,200 sq ft of artificial turf to provide an area for activities. We are requesting a waiver of the standards to use pavers or concrete for the surface materials of the beer garden. Instead, to reduce drainage impact and heat retention of the area, we are filling in most of the area with gray breeze, a compactable crushed granite material used in outdoor areas that provides drainage and low heat retention. This material settles and remains a low dust solution to high traffic areas. Seating will be provided using cedar picnic tables and various movable lawn furniture (i.e. Adirondack Chairs, benches, etc.) with shade and lighting to be provided using shade sails attached to in ground poles and solar light strings attached to the shade sail posts, as detailed in the attached plans. Barrels will be placed around the posts for aesthetic purposes only. The entire lot will be graded to allow runoff into the designated sewer drain area on the southeast corner of the lot, as shown by arrows in the schematic. A small portion of the asphalt curb currently in place will be removed to remove any restriction to accessing the sewer drain. Rock (asphalt) socks will be placed around the storm inlet to prevent sediment from the garden area entering the storm drain. Additionally, to facilitate outdoor dining, we intend to place a ground secured gazebo near the entrance, which will house a bussing station, potential host stand, and water stations.
