Dear Anne:

This letter requests a modification of standard (Division
z
LL
2.8 of the Fort Collins Land Use Code) with regard to the
a
w
"directness" measurement of the Fort Collins Pedestrian Level of
JService
criteria for the Raven View Development. As reported in
the Raven View Development Transportation Impact Study -
•
o
Amendment response to staff comments, dated April 27, 2005, the
Uj
N
directness to Moore Elementary School is at LOS E and the
Cr
Q
rn
directness to the residential neighborhood to the east is at LOS
,Z
o
F. The pedestrian influence area graphic and Pedestrian LOS

The Raven View Development is a residential in -fill
`D
=
development that is surrounded by single family homes. It is
Nn
proposed to have vehicular access to Taft Hill Road. Sidewalks
c\j
will be constructed within the development and will connect to
the existing sidewalks along the east side of Taft Hill Road.
The existing sidewalks were constructed a number of years ago
under a previous Fort Collins street/sidewalk standard. The
practical pedestrian route to all destinations would be via the
sidewalk on Taft Hill Road.
As noted on the Pedestrian LOS Worksheet, the directness
measures to destinations 1 and 3 do not meet the City criteria.
The minimum distance, as defined in the City of Fort Collins
Multimodal Transportation Level of Service Manual, is through the
Uj
yards of private property that surrounds Raven View. The actual
LL
(practical) a.-- b.C'.. is the exit 11g sJl ewalk Jy.-Jt ellli
along Taft Hill Road and Orchard Place or Taft Hill Road and
=
w
Mulberry Street to the respective destinations. Since this is an
�
in -fill development, there are exceptional
p p physical conditions
V
z
and practical difficulties that prevent meeting the criteria.
z
These conditions and difficulties are that this developer cannot
W
build public sidewalks through private property. Granting the
Q
F
modification would not be detrimental to the public good, since
cc
a
there will be pedestrian routes to the two destinations.

!n
It is respectfully requested that the above modification of
cc
F-
standard be granted for the Raven View Development. Do not
W
hesitate to contact me if you desire additional information.
