Ted I took the request of a Bus Stop at Harmony Safeway to the Transportation group and everyone was
fine with the location. One stipulation is that the stop be located on the West side of the Harmony Rd.
"right in/right out" access drive .
Brief conversation with Eric on the Hamlet issue. He needs to refresh some of his memory on the issue
but he could not think of a reason to not allow it to be opened, at least as well as he could remember the
area and any past issues. He will contact you soon though.
That's it for the moment
Ward.

Harmony Safeway Market
As per the "Transit Design Standards and Guidelines," a new transit stop (type A with transit shelter)
should be placed near Harmony and south of the existing pedestrian sidewalk which runs from Safeway.
This location is west of the Harmony Rd right in /right out access drive. A direct pedestrian connection
from the new transit stop to the existing walk is also necessary. Because of the swail between Harmony
Road and the existing walk, the developer would need to provide a pedestrian bridge across this swail. It
is my expectation that the developer would be responsible to build this with the adjacent pad site
development.

If the two pad sites provide sidewalk connections out to the public walk along Harmony, they should be
able to connect to the future transit stop west of the right-in/right-out (I assume there is sidewalk along
Harmony which could be a mistake). Please let me know if this answers your question. Thanks.

Kathleen, according to Gaylene and Ward, the future transit stop on westbound Harmony Road in front of
Safeway is to be located on the west side of the right-in/right-out.
Since both Blockbuster and Centennial Bank are on the east side, it appears that there will be no direct
sidewalk connection until the pad site on the west side of the access drive comes in.
Will there be a problem with this? Please let me know as Clark and I meet with the architects on Monday
afternoon.
Thanks, Ted.

Subject: Re: Safeway Bus Shelter
In looking at the Development Agreement for the Harmony Safeway Marketplace, I didn't find any mention
of a bus shelter. It appears that this will be a fresh situation without any prior precedents.
It's worth noting that the location of the shelter is adjacent to a parcel that is currently not under
development.
GayLene, the Blockbuster, Centennial Bank, and Village Inn pad sites will be discussed at Development
Review this Wednesday at 8:30 am. Your attendance for the bus shelter discussion would be appreciated
if possible.

Gaylene,
Marc Virata and I will be meeting in the near future regarding the three pad sites along Harmony Road in
the Safeway center.
You had mentioned the need for a bus shelter. I recall that you wanted the full-blown type shelter and you
had a name for it.
As I recall, and correct me if I am wrong, the installation of these shelters by the applicant is negotiated as
part of the P.U.D. process and not a hard and fast Code requirement. So, if I am to enter into a
negotiation, I need to know the exact type and size of shelter and the cost so the developer knows what
he is getting into.
Please let Marc and I know as these three pad sites are in for Final P.U.D. and will be going to the P & Z
Board shortly.
Thanks, Ted.

Marc,
This is what I received from Ward back in early April. I was told that the transit stop issue was orignially
brought up at a Wednesday Dev Review Staff mtg previous to the email. I was not at that mtg. As I told
you today, this project is the old LDGS and we could not require a transit facility under that process. We
can only recommend that one be put in. That being the case, the recommendation would be to construct
a Type A transit stop as indicated in the "Transit Design Standards and Guidelines." for Commercial
developments under the LUC (this includes a shelter & pad with ADA access). The shelters that Transfort
specs cost from $4,000 to $4,500.
We know the swail, traffic (keeping the bus off of Harmony travel lane and away from decel lane), and
pedestrian access to a transit stop are concerns. We discussed a location closer to McMurry for safe
pedestrian access across Harmony. We also talked about a location between the entrance into the
shopping ctr yet east of the decel lane.
After you visit the site let me know your thoughts on the locations discussed at Transp Coord. last
Thursday.
