Hi Cody,
We will not require an updated TIS for this change. Single family homes tend to generate more traffic than townhomes
do. So, while the actual number of dwelling units may be increasing slightly, the actual trip generation would not be
expected to change noticeably.
Good luck with your project. Let me know if you need anything else from me.
Sincerely,
Joe Olson, P.E.

Project No: 1646-01-98; Old Town North Second Filing (Being a replat of Blocks 6 and 9, Old Town
North and a portion of Tract "E" Replat of Evergreen Park); Ft. Collins
Client: Client: Sunterrace Townhomes, LLC
Mr. Joe Olson,
As you may or may not know, we are about to submit for the last round of review for the Sunterrace Townhomes
project for PDP. Sunterrace Townhomes is a small portion of the original Old Town North development. The major
change to the project is that the 12 single family lots on Block 9 are now being replatted into 4 — 6plex townhomes (24
dwelling units). This would increase the # of dwelling units in Old Town North from 253 dwelling units to 265 dwelling
units. In March of this year, we had spoken with Matt Wempe, and due to a misunderstanding, it was thought that
the TIS would not be required for this project. We recently found out that Matt was actually saying that the TIS did not
need to be updated for the Pedestrian level of service portion only. Matt referred us to you to determine if an update
to the TIS will be required.
The original TIS is attached. I have also included a site plan for Sunterrace and the original Old Town North. Please
review and let us know if an update to the TIS is required.
Thanks,
Cody Geisendorfer, PE
