These routes generally operate between 6:30am and 7:00pm on weekdays. There are bus stops on Prospect Road and on Shields Street within 1320 feet of the Bennett Road Bungalows. According to the Fort Collins City Plan - 2015 Transit System Map, Shields Street will be a high frequency travel corridor with 20 minute service and Prospect Road will have feeder route service with 30 minute service. Appendix C contains a transit worksheet for the four specific transit destinations mentioned in the "Multimodal Transportation Level of Service Manual." The transit level of service will be acceptable. Conclusion It is concluded that no transportation impact study is required for the Bennett Road Bungalows. The multimodal analysis indicates that acceptable level of service will be achieved for bicycle and transit modes. The required pedestrian level of service cannot be achieved in this area of Fort Collins. TABLE 1 Trip Generation Code Use S¢e AWOTE AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hour Rake.

Pedestrian Traffic An inventory of the pedestrian facilities within 0.25 miles of this site indicated that sidewalks exist along all streets with two exceptions: 1) the site frontage has no sidewalk, and 2) no sidewalks exist along a short segment on the north side of West Lake Street, east of Shields Street. With development of the Bennett Road Bungalows, the sidewalk adjacent to the site will be built. The gap in the sidewalk along West Lake Street should be completed by the adjacent property owner. The sidewalks in this area of Fort Collins were built prior to the current street standards. Therefore, the sidewalks are adjacent to the curb. There are no landscaped parkways. 3. Bicycle Traffic Bennett Road is a designated bike route. Bennett Road is also classified as a local street and, as such, does not have bike lanes. In accordance with Fort Collins Street Standards, this development will not build or stripe any new bicycle lanes or paths. Based upon the above, it is concluded that no transportation impact study is required for the Bennett Road Bungalows. In spite of the above conclusion, the Fort Collins Transportation Planning Department requested an analysis of pedestrian, bicycle, and transit level of service. These analyses are provided below. Figure 3 shows the location of the proposed Bennett Road Bungalows and a radius of 1320 feet from the outer boundary of the parcel. Per the "Multimodal Transportation Level of Service Manual," there are four pedestrian "destination areas" within this radius. These are the four areas designated by numbers: 1) the Bennett Elementary School; 2) Colorado State University; 3) the office buildings east of Shields Street and near Burton Drive; and 4) the commercial area south of Prospect Road and west of Shields Street that includes the Rite -Aid Drug Store. Appendix A contains the Pedestrian LOS Worksheet for the Bennett Road Bungalows as it relates to these "destination areas." The Bennett Road Bungalows are in an area that is termed "Pedestrian District." The minimum pedestrian level of service for this district is A for all categories, except for street crossings, which is B. As indicated on the Pedestrian LOS Worksheet, the minimum level of service for all categories cannot be achieved. Except for completing the sidewalks along its frontage, there is nothing that this development can do to increase the level of service for those factors that are less than the standard. There are two bicycle "priority destination areas" within 1320 feet of the Bennett Road Bungalows as indicated in Figure 4. These are designated as 1) Bennett Elementary School, and 2) the commercial area south of Prospect Road and west of Shields Street that contains the Rite - Aid Drug Store. Shields Street has bike lanes on both sides of the street within this area. Prospect Road has bike lanes west of Shields Street but no bike lanes east of Shields Street. West Lake Street (a collector street) has bike lanes. Other streets in the area are classified as local streets and, as such, do not require striped bike lanes. Bennett Road, City Park Avenue, and Springfield Drive are designated bike routes. Appendix B contains the Bicycle LOS Worksheets for the Bennett Road Bungalows. The bicycle level of service is/will be acceptable. co 00 CV) o v 0 L0 o Q, o a Q Cr0 O p O U � • X Q z LL Q J W 0 J W C7 > CV Q CA 0 CD z W O a r W W J Z U O CV d CV CV W a z w ¢ 2 W W 2 U J w W cc cc a y z ` a 5 ¢ f- W = v U.

The site plan is shown in Figure 2. This lot is currently vacant. Development of this lot would be considered to be "in fill." According to the "Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards," January 2, 2001, Chapter 4, Transportation Impact Study, Section 4.2.3 Levels of Analyses, no TIS is required if certain conditions are met. Below are listed the reasons for the waiver of the TIS. 1. Vehicular Traffic a. The daily vehicle trip generation will be less than 200 trip ends per day and/or the peak hour trip generation will be less than 50 trip ends per hour. This was evaluated using Trip Generation, 6`" Edition, ITE in consideration of the proposed land use category. Table 1 shows the trip generation estimates for 16 single family dwelling units. Both the daily and peak hour trip generation are less than that listed above. b. No additional accesses are being requested to collectors, arterials, or State Highways. C. Since the existing use is a vacant lot and, as such, generates no peak hour traffic, the proposed use will not exceed the trip generation from the existing use by more than 20 peak hour trip ends, as demonstrated in Table 1. d. The proposed land use will generate the same type of vehicular traffic that currently exists in this neighborhood. e. It is not likely that the scale or use of the proposed development will cause unacceptable levels or service on the adjacent public streets, accesses, and intersections. f. The proposed development is not in the vicinity of a street or intersection with a history of safety and/or accident problems.
