HomeMy WebLinkAboutCROWNE ON TIMBERLINE - PDP - PDP130009 - REPORTS - STREET RELATED DOCUMENT (4)F of
other proposed developments (see attachment B). The analysis shows traffic volumes will be at
or slightly above the upper threshold of a major collector street (3,700 vehicles per day near
Linden Park and 5,300 vehicles per day near Timberline Road).
Conclusions
Staff supports the addition of a "Collector 2 Lanes" to the Master Street Plan as shown in
Attachment A, for the following reasons:
- Traffic volumes once the area is developed will meet the threshold for a collector level
street.
This street will connect to Timberline Road at an existing signalized intersection which
will funnel traffic wishing to travel north (to make the left turn) from the proposed
development(s) as well as for the existing residents of Linden Park.
The proposed roadway connects to an existing Collector (Zephyr) and to a planned
connection at the Linden Park Neighborhood. A stub road connection was created when
Linden Park was built with the intention to provide connectivity to future development
north of Linden Park. This connection provides the Linden Park neighborhood an
additional route into and out of their neighborhood.
The proposed collector will serve one existing residential area (Linden Park) and four
other properties, three of which are in process of developing a mixture of residential and
commercial.

ACTION ITEM SUMMARY
Date: June 19, 2013
Staff. Aaron Iverson, Senior Transportation Planner
SUBJECT OF ACTION
Requested Master Street Plan Amendment as related to Crowne Project
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A proposed development in the vicinity of Timberline Road and Zephyr Road has identified a
street on their site plan as a collector street. The developer has requested the City add this
collector street to the Master Street Plan, which requires an amendment through City Council
action. Based on traffic analysis and planned connectivity in this area staff supports the addition
of this collector to the Master Street Plan.
DIRECTION SOUGHT
This purpose of this action item is to seek a recommendation to City Council from the
Transportation Board related to a proposed amendment to the Master Street Plan as described
below.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Overview
The applicant for a project called "Crown on Timberline" has requested to add a collector street
to the Master Street Plan. The development is a multi -family residential project approximately
17 acres in size. The project is just north of an existing single family neighborhood (Linden
Park) and south of a proposed development that is a mixture of commercial and single family
residential.
To add a collector street to the Master Street Plan requires an amendment through City Council
action. A map showing the proposed amendment (see attachment A) has been prepared for
consideration by the Transportation Board prior to City Council action. This will be included as
part of the Planning and Zoning Board staff report on the project overall, however the Planning
and Zoning Board will not take action on the street amendment. The amendment to the Master
Street Plan will only go forward if and when the overall project is approved. If the project is not
approved or does not move forward for any other reason the street amendment will not be
processed.
Analysis
The proposed amendment to the Master Street Plan is a request to add a collector street, which
would be an extension of Zephyr Road west of Timberline Road. This road is proposed to curve
south and connect to the Linden Park Neighborhood to an existing street stub at Fossil Creek
Circle (see attached map). The applicant provided a traffic analysis developed by Delich
Associates describing the potential traffic volumes on the proposed street with this project and
