to be reviewed.
-Turnberry and Country Club. With completion of Phase I, the TIS notes that
this intersection will be LOS F for the eastbound approach with an average
delay of about 2.4 minutes for EB left turns. The intersection analysis study
provided indicates that a modern roundabout would be the most beneficial
control type. Next steps for this intersection incudes taking the control type to
Council as required, and discussing cost sharing between applicant and street
oversizing.
- SH1 and Douglas Road. This intersection has a current operational and
safety concern. Completion of Water's Edge will contribute only 1 % volume to
the intersection, considered nominal. The intersection is a state highway and in
unincorporated Larimer County. The county is pursuing a signal.
07/20/2016: A memo has been received that further reviews options at some of
these intersections, but much additional work is needed, no clear identification
of improvements has been made, and no design submitted.
03/02/2016: If and when the APF issue is addressed, then there are a number
of other off -site intersections that need further discussion, evaluation, and
potential mitigation. They include:
-Vine and Timberline. With completion of Phase I, this will be LOS F and not
meet LCUASS LOS criteria. The TIS notes the recommended improvement is
a signal or roundabout. The railroad tracks complicates this, and further review
will be required.
-Timberline and Mountain Vista. With completion of Phase I, this will be LOS
F and not meet LCUASS LOS criteria. The TIS notes the recommended
improvement is an all -way stop. Rural, arterial, high speed all -way stops can be
a compliance and safety concern. Further review of other options such as a
channelized T, or roundabout is appropriate.
-Turnberry and Country Club. With completion of Phase I, the TIS notes that
this intersection will be LOS F for the eastbound approach with an average
delay of more than 4 minutes. No recommended improvements are listed in the
TIS, perhaps because Country Club is technically classified as a collector. But
with almost 300 left turns in the PM peak hour, very poor level of service, and
increasing safety concerns, this intersection should be evaluated for a signal
warrant and reviewed for a roundabout.
-SH1 and Douglas Road. This intersection has a current safety concern, and
with completion of Phase 1, will see increasingly poor levels of service. This
intersection should be evaluated for a signal warrant (70% factor due to high
speed).

HR 11/09/2016: The revised PDP proposal is much smaller than the original
submittal. (Original submittal had 9,378 trips upon buildout and the revised
submittal has 1,577 trips upon buildout. Phase 1 is less than 1/2 of what was
originally proposed.) The development's anticipated traffic through the Vine /
Lemay intersection is now 29 vehicles in the PM peak hour. This falls under the
50 vehicle exemption in the Land Use Code and as such , APF is no longer
triggered at this intersection for this development.
07/20/2016: This issue has not yet been resolved. There is a City Council
worksession planned for August 9th to discuss in general terms whether
refinement to the APF should be considered.
03/02/2016: Section 3.7.3.D in the City of Fort Collins City Code details the
requirements for Adequate Public Facilities regarding transportation. It
indicates that all development shall meet or exceed the transportation level of
services standards contained in Part II of the City of Fort Collins Multi -modal
Transportation Level of Service Manual. For a signalized intersection that
standard is LOS D. The applicant's TIS calculates that the intersection of Vine
/ Lemay will be at a LOS F with the completion of Phase I of Waters Edge. This
triggers the APF threshold and is initially the most significant issue for the
development to address before being able to move forward.

HR 11/09/2016: The updated study specifically addresses the intersections below
with potential operational, safety or standards deficiencies:
Vine and Lemay. Beyond the APF consideration, the TIS calculates
that change in overall delay at this intersection due to the proposed
development is less than 2%, and therefore is considered a nominal impact per
LCUASS. No improvements are required of this development.
-Vine and Timberline. This intersection is not subject to APF, but Levels of
Service are problematic. I've calculated overall weighted Levels of Service as
required in LCUASS, and want to share the information with the applicant. It is
noted that the railroad tracks significantly complicates signalization, and
improvements may be beyond a single development.

as an improvement (both operational and safety). The submitted design needs

approved.
07/20/2016: Per the Detention Pond Landscape Standards, the walls should
be 30-inches or less due to safety concerns.
03/04/2016: The retaining walls along the north and west sides of detention
basin 110 are near 12 feet high in certain places. Retaining walls of this height
create a safety hazard/concern as well as an aesthetic concern.
To mitigate the height of these retaining walls regarding safety and aesthetics,
the City requires that the walls be tiered to two or more walls with a landscaping
bench between each section.
This will reduce additional volume in detention basin 110, which will need to be
replaced in another location.

documenting that the release can be longer than the statute.
03/04/2016: Colorado Revised Statute 37-92-602 (8) requires that all quantity
detention basins drain within a designated time. Detention basin 110 may not
meet this statute due to the restricted release rate of 1 cfs, which was required
by the owners of Larimer #8 Irrigation Canal.
This issue needs further investigation on what will be allowed if the existing
detention basin were to be modified or if the detention basin were to be left in
it's current condition.
The City suggests the involvement of the ditch company to help in facilitating a
solution.

The erosion control plan will need to be reworked so that it can be evaluated for

sufficient to protect the site.

Details of the emergency access plan for the waterfront are still being worked

11/10/2016: LAKE ACCESS COMMENT- UPDATED
> The circular turnaround located just past the recreation area is shown at 50'
diameter. 50' is essentially the overall length of a ladder truck and the design
would not allow effective turning movements of fire apparatus. Hammerhead
designs call for 50' legs or 100' overall length in order to provide adequate
space for turning. This is also the reason that cul-de-sacs require a 100'
diameter. The current plan would not permit large fire apparatus to turn around
and further discussion is warranted as fire apparatus will not be able to back up
the 1500 feet to Parkside Rd.
> The access drive to the recreation area shall be dedicated by separate
document as an Emergency Access Easement. It is permitted to be 16' in
typical width with the addition of the turnouts already indicated to bring the fire
lane to 20' in those areas.
> Compacted road base is approved in this application and plans should reflect
that it will be engineered to support 40 tons.
> No Parking - Fire Lane signs locations TBD at FDP.
