Subject: Harmony Technology Park ODP - Transit Comments
Please incorporate Transfort's comments with overall Transportation Services
comments:
Future Service - In addition to the Future Transfort Bus Shelter & stop on
Harmony that is already shown on the ODP - We would like the same on CR 9 for
future north/south transit service with convenient access near the entrance
into the site.
Current Service - Transfort has service into Hewlett Packard and we are in the
process of evaluating that route. If we find that there would be an
opportunity in the future to extend this route to the Harmony Technology Park,
it may be more feasible for Transfort and would be more convenient for
employees at the site if there were a turnaround and bus stop within this
site.

(LUC) Overall Development Plan
PLANNER: Steve Olt
All comments must be recieved no later than the staff review meeting:
Wednesday, July 23, 1997
1. An Amendment to the Harmony Road Access Control Plan will be required. The submitted
traffic study indicated that an additional traffic signal at the western access to HP would not
degrade the Level Of Service of Harmony Road. Discussion with the State to amend the
Access Control Plan should start immediately. Mr. Bob Grube of the CDOT is the contact
person, he can be reached at (970) 350-2152. The City Traffic Engineer will support such an
amendment. This traffic signal will also assist pedestrians and bicyclists in crossing Harmony
Road between HP and Celestica Site. This amendment will only be supported if the southern
leg of the intersection is a public road that provides for circulation for the entire area.
2. Because the TIS used trip generation similar to the existing conditions of the HP site, each
phase must have the condition that the user will provide documentation and assurances that trip
reductions will be achieved.
3. The developer is creating the need for the traffic signal on Harmony Road. Therefore, this
cost shall at the developers expense.
4. The addition of the traffic signal at Timberwood and County Rd.. 9 will be evaluated at each
phase enters the development process and should not be interpreted as a "given".
5. Improvements to Harmony Road and County Road 9 will be required, these may include
bicycle lanes, acceleration and deceleration lanes, roadway surface improvements, additional
right-of-way and utility easement dedications to current City standards.
6. Cambridge Drive will need to be improved to City standards. May require addition right-of-
way and easement dedications.
7. Some type of buffer to screen the existing estate lots along Cambridge may be required.

9. The ped LOC "C" for crossing Harmony Road is acceptable in this case. However,
crosswalk improvements (whether at CR. 9 or the new location proposed to align with the HP
west entrance) will be required per the list in the ped LOS matrix, ( special pavement treatments
to highlight crossing areas, increased walk time, increased lighting, ped refuge areas in medians,
increased attention to clear lines of site, etc.).
10. The LOS "A" finding for directness and continuity to HP are inaccurate, there are not any
sidewalks along HP's property on either CR 9 or Harmony, so the project fails to meet these
categories. To meet these categories it is the responsibility of the developer to negotiate with
HP to provide and install sidewalks along CR 9 and Harmony to the entrance to HP.
11. If a traffic signal is not built at HP's Harmony Road west entrance, then the crosswalk at
CR 941armony needs to be improved and or an overpass could be built along Harmony to
connect the site with HP once the site is fully developed.
12. Regarding the bicycle LOS, Preston Center is not the only applicable destination. Include
HP,(future) Symbios, and the adjacent neighborhoods. The TIS needs to be revised to show
these destinations. Include the fact that bike lanes already exist on CR 9 north of Harmony and
with their frontage improvements they will make this connection also.
