There are four destination areas within 1320 feet of the proposed Remington Annex Student Housing: 1) the Colorado State University Campus area to the west of the site, 2) the residential neighborhood/commercial to the north of the site, 3) the residential neighborhood to the east of the site, and 4) the residential neighborhood to the south of the site. Currently there are sidewalks adjacent to the site along Remington Street. Appendix F contains a Pedestrian LOS Worksheet. Based upon Fort Collins bicycle LOS criteria, the only bicycle destination is Colorado State University Campus. This site connects directly to bike lanes on Remington Street and Laurel Street, which achieves level of service A. Currently, this area is served by Transfort Route 1 and Flex. It is expected that transit level of service will be acceptable. It is concluded that, with development of Remington Annex Student Housing, the future level of service at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections will be acceptable. The level of service for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes will be acceptable. The Remington Annex Student Housing can be built without additional geometry or other street improvements. L—DELICH Remington Annex Student Housing TIS, December 2010 r ASSOCIATES Figure 3 shows the site plan for Remington Annex Student Housing. Remington Annex Student Housing will consist of 42 apartment units (46 beds). Access to Remington Annex Student Housing will be via the alley to the west of the site. Trip Generation, 8th Edition, ITE was used as the reference document in calculating the trip generation. Persons (beds) were used as the trip generation variable. Since, this site is close to the Colorado State University campus, a reduction (25%) was taken for the trips that are expected to walk or bike to and from this site. Table 2 shows the trip generation for Remington Annex Student Housing. This trip generation was discussed and agreed to in the scoping meeting. The trip generation for Remington Annex Student Housing is calculated at: 72 daily trip ends, 18 morning _peak hour trip ends, and 15 afternoon peak hour trip ends. Currently there are three single family homes on the proposed Remington Annex Student Housing site. Using the cited reference document, these existing homes generate: 28 daily trip ends, 3 morning peak hour trip ends, and 3 afternoon peak hour trip ends. It is expected that the proposed Remington Annex Student Housing will generate more traffic than the existing land use. The trip distribution for this site is shown in Figure 4. The trip distribution was determined using the existing traffic counts, knowledge of the existing and planned street system, development trends, and engineering judgment. Figure 5 shows the site generated peak hour traffic assignment of the Remington Annex Student Housing. Although, vehicles can enter the Remington Annex Student Housing site through the Collegio access on College Avenue, in the scoping meeting, it was requested that no site generated traffic would be assigned to the Collegio access. Figure 6 shows the short range (2016) background peak hour traffic at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. Background traffic volume forecasts for the short range (2015) future were obtained by reviewing traffic studies for other developments in this area and reviewing historic counts in the area. Traffic volumes were factor by 2.0 percent per year. Table 3 shows the short range (2016) background peak hour operation at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix D. The key intersections will operate acceptably with the existing control and geometry. Figure 7 shows the short range (2016) total peak hour traffic at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. Table 4 shows the short range (2016) total peak hour operation at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix E. The key intersections will operate acceptably during the peak hours. Figure 8 shows the short range (2016) geometry at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. This is the existing geometry at the key intersections. The Remington Annex Student Housing site is in an area within which the City requires pedestrian and bicycle level of service evaluations. Appendix F shows a map of the area that is within 1320 feet of Remington Annex Student Housing.

Remington Annex Student Housing is located on Remington Street, one lot south of Laurel Street, in Fort Collins. The site location is shown in Figure 1. The site is currently occupied by three homes (705, 711, and 715 Remington Street). Remington Annex Student Housing will consist of 42 apartment units (46 beds). The scope of this study was discussed with the Fort Collins Traffic Operations Engineer. A brief memorandum was requested. The Base Assumptions form is provided in Appendix A. There are sidewalks along developed parcels of land within 0.25 miles of the site. There are bicycle lanes along Remington Street and Laurel Street. Figure 2 shows recent peak hour counts at the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. The count data was obtained in December 2011, when Colorado State University was in session. Raw traffic data is provided in Appendix B. Table 1 shows the current peak hour operation of the College/Laurel, Laurel/Alley, Laurel/Remington, College/Plum, and Plum/Alley intersections. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix C. A description of level of service for signalized and unsignalized intersections from the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual and a table showing the Fort Collins Motor Vehicle LOS Standards (Intersections) are also provided in Appendix C. The key intersections operate acceptably during the peak hours. Remington Annex Student Housing site is in an area termed "mixed use district." In areas termed "mixed use district," acceptable operation at signalized intersections during the peak hours is defined as level of service E or better. At unsignalized intersections, acceptable operation is considered to be at level of service F for any approach leg for an arterial/ collector intersection or an arterial/local intersection. In such areas, it is expected that there would be substantial delays to the minor street movements during the peak hours. This is considered to be normal in urban areas. At unsignalized collector/local intersections, acceptable operation is considered to be at level of service C for any approach leg.
