County Road 9 shall be designed as an Arterial roadway from Harmony Road to the
southwest corner of the HTP property. The City will modify their Master Streets Plan
accordingly.
Per my phone conversation with Mike Herzig, the two east -west cross streets proposed with
Option G.2 are to be classified as "Modified Commercial Local". The modification relates to
the elimination of on -street parking and the potential addition of a 6-foot median as shown on
the attached section.
If you should have any questions or comments regarding our understanding of any of these
items, please contact me immediately. Thank you again for your consideration of these issues.
look forward to working with you on this project..

RE: Harmony Technology Park
JR Project 9265.00
Dear Mark:
I am writing in regard to the street geometry proposed for the potential first phase of Harmony
Technology Park (HTP) as we discussed in our meeting of June 5, 2000. Attached you will find
three cross sections that reflect our understanding of the modifications deemed acceptable to the
City of Fort Collins. In addition, I have included a summary of items relating to the onsite
streets.
The HP design team is in the process of preparing Schematic Design level plans for submittal to
the City on June 22, 2000 based on the following understanding.
• Cambridge Road will be classified as a "Modified Collector". All design criteria for a
standard Collector roadway shall be in effect with the exception of a wider parkway (10-feet)
and sidewalk (6-feet).
• Cambridge Road may deflect a maximum of 10 degrees off of Harmony Road, in accordance
with current City criteria, in order to accommodate the shifting of right-of-way onto the HP
property.
• Raised landscaped medians may be used internally, even though they are not shown on the
standard City street sections for these categories. Technology Parkway may be considered a
"Modified Collector" due to the potential addition of said raised median.
• Design lane tapers shall be based upon the ws2 /60 formula in lieu of a straight ratio. The
design speed for Cambridge shall be 40 mph, not 35 mph, per your follow up phone message.
• Access to the east off of Cambridge Road just south of Harmony Road shall be considered
temporary in nature until such time as a roadway may be realigned with the proposed HTP
access to the west.
• Outfall curb and gutter around the raised medians will be acceptable as long as "Bubbler"
irrigation is utilized rather that "spray" irrigation.
