Neither Kathleen or I will be able to attend tomorrow's meeting re: the Harvest Park development due to a
previously scheduled meeting. I met with Kathleen this morning however to discuss your concerns.
Transportation Planning staff remains firm in its comments regarding the inclusion of combined
bicycle/parking lanes on Harvest Park Lane. This issue has been agreed upon by Transportation
Planning, Traffic Operations, and Engineering staffs. Transportation Planning staff feels this issue is not
up for debate. The roadway width needed for this design needs to be provided by the developer if Parks
is not willing or able to give the land.
Given the past history with other parks in Fort Collins, this issue is important to Transportation Planning
staff. We do not wish to repeat previous mistakes that are now coming back to haunt us. The inclusion of
a trail along the south end of the park does not satisfy bicycle transportation needs into and out of the park
area.
We need to stick to our original position on this issue and require the developer to design their site to
accommodate this need.
Call me or Kathleen if you have questions.
Mark
