Shriver (SEAL) oecretary Poudre School Distric No. R-1 in the County of Larimer and State of Colorado The following communication was presented and read at length: June 6, 1963 Members of City Council: I object to the proposed final plat of Eighth Fairview Subdivision for the following reaso The plat calls for moving City Park Avenue 10 feet east of the present existing City Park Avenue. This would place the road adjacent to my property line on the west and would put a 10 feet jog on the southwest and southeast corners of the intersection. In my opinion such a jog would propose a traffic hazard on this street. On the proposed plat a house is planned on the north lot. With the road proposed to be located 10 feet to the east, I believe an additional traffic hazard in the form of a blind corner seems evident since this lot has a 55 foot frontage on City Park Avenue with 15 foot set -back south of Springfield. If the proposed plat is accepted as submitted and the road placed adjacent to the western- most boundry of my property a peculiar "S"-shaped curb and sidewalk would result, since the front of my property has presently a (resent -shaped sidewalk. Pedestrian traffic and bicycle traffic has no choice but to move in the proximity of my western boundry on the proposed sidewalk adjacent to the existing property line. This may or may not present problems involving prope ty damage when school is open. I have small children who play constardy in the front, side and back yards and any attempt to bring vehicular traffic close to my property is, in my opinion, an added danger to their life and limb. In order to alleviate some of these objections I would suggest to the City Council tlat t proposed plat be altered so that the ---road conforms with the existing City Park Avenue. In order to permit Mr. Bartran the full use of the propmeed subdivision that sai d City Park Avenue slope gradually eastward from the southwest and southeast corners intersecting with Springfield to the proposed curve east of the Larimer Co. canal and the east -west access road from the new Bennett School. This would accomplish the following: 1. It would avoid jogging City Park to the east. 2. It would reduce the sharpness of the curve at the intersection of the Bennett school access road and City Park Avenue. 3. It would provide more depth for the southermost lot in the proposed Subdivision. 4. It would move vehicular traffic and pedestrian traffic sufficiently to the west to pre- vent future controversy. 5. It would avoid making an unusual "S"-shaped curb and sidewslk with an acute curvature bordering on my property. 6. It would provide utility easement to the west of my property for.the existing utility poles and lines. 7. It would avoid future request for assessments on my behalf on any proposed construction on the'west side of my house. A side entrance exists now which would become located 9 or 10 feet from the proposed road edge; this would not be in conformity with A zone requirements that require a 15 foot set -back from side roads. Thank you for your consideration. /s/ Jack Altman 1321 Springfield Drive Fort Collins, Colorado After discussion, the President declared a recess for the Council to visit the proposed street location in the Eighth Fairview Subdivision which is under consideration.
