SUBJECT: Raven View Development Transportation Impact Study -
Amendment response to staff comments (File: 0477ME02)
This memorandum provides responses to Fort Collins staff
comments with regard to the TIS. The comments addressed herein
pertain to the current site plan and pedestrian level of service.
Comment 90 indicates that the TIS needs to be updated to
reflect the current site layout. The new site layout shows 36 single
family attached and 18 single family detached dwelling units with a
single access to Taft Hill Road. The site plan shown in the TIS had
38 single family attached and 19 single family detached dwelling
units with the same single access to Taft Hill Road. There would be
little purpose to update the TIS with the new dwelling unit count,
since the morning and afternoon peak hour trip generation is reduced
by 3 and 0 trip ends, respectively. The calculated level of service
and conclusions with regard to intersection operation will not
change.
Comment 21 discusses pedestrian LOS with regard to including
the City Park Nine golf course as a destination and the directness
measurement. The TIS addressed pedestrian LOS on page 17 and in
Appendix F. The comment regarding the proximity to City Park Nine is
not valid. Both the club house and driveway from City Park Drive are
more than 0.25 miles from the northeast edge of the site. The
distances were scaled from an aerial photograph. Therefore, it is
concluded that City Park Nine as a pedestrian destination is not
appropriate.
In my judgment, the City staff interpretation of the
"directness" measurement is contrary to practical logic, especially
as it relates to "in fill" development. As defined by staff, the
minimum pedestrian distance to/from the residential neighborhood to
the east and Moore Elementary School to the southeast would go
through the yards of private property. It would not follow a
practical route that would be available to a pedestrian. The actual
distance to either of these destinations would be via sidewalks along
Taft Hill Road and Mulberry Street or Taft Hill Road and Orchard
Place. At the request of City staff, I have changed the directness
measure to these two destinations to fit the staff interpretation.
The Pedestrian Influence Area graphic and Pedestrian LOS Worksheet,
reflecting this change, are provided in Appendix A. The "directness"
factor for Moore Elementary School is at LOS E and for the
neighborhood to the east is at LOS F. It is my understanding that
the calculated level of service for directness will not cause City
staff to recommend denial of the Raven View Development.
