I would like to schedule a meeting with you as soon as possible, if necessary, to discuss these comments. Sincerely, 4tf- Steve Olt Project Planner xc: Kerrie Ashbeck/Sheri Wamhoff Stormwater Utility Transportation Colorado Land Source Northern Engineering Landstar Surveying Project File 13. The Natural Resources Division is still reviewing the preliminary PUD proposal and have not yet completed their comments. Please contact Rob Wilkinson or Susie Gordon, at 221-6600, if you want to discuss what their concerns may be. 14. Can a planned bicycle path be connected to the proposed park site in the Ridgewood Hills PUD to provide for alternative transportation to the park? 15. You should contact Tim Buchanan, the City Forester, to schedule a meeting on -site for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating existing trees. Tim can be reached at 221-6640. 16. The Advance Planning Department has stated that the mix of land uses looks good, but the walkability is marginal. The experience of this place would appear to be out of the "negative" side of the recent Visual Preference Survey. Under All Development Criterion A-2.6 Pedestrian Circulation in the Land Development Guidance System, it would be ideal to try to make the collector access through the project more attractive. The proposed duplexes are the only dwelling units facing the collector street, and they form a series of garage doors. 17. The Residential Density Chart and the Business Service Uses Point Chart need to be discussed as soon as possible. * The "for certain" base points on the density chart total 12, with the major employment center in question. The bonus points being taken have not yet been substantiated. Where is the offsite open space and what assurance is there that is can be acquired and accepted by the City? We should discuss these concerns as soon as possible. At this time staff sees about 40 to 45 points maximum being earned on the density chart. * The point chart earns 20 of a maximum 48 points, equaling 42%. Being part of a center and joint parking are questionable. This completes the review comments at this time. Additional comments may be forthcoming as the various departments and reviewing agencies continue to review this request.

The Planning Unit of the Thompson School District R2-J have stated that the students from this proposed development would be bussed to all schools; therefore, a bus pick-up and shelter would be needed on either Trilby Road or County Road 32.
