re: Trip Generation for Indian Hills PUD
Dear Jon:
Per the requirements of the City of fort Collins Traffic
Engineering Department, Krager and Associates has reviewed your
PUD submittal for the proposed Indian Hills residential
neighborhood. Our analysis is based on the proposal to construct
48 single-family homes on the south side of Stuart Street between
Busch Court and Stover Street. Access would be provided by ollr,
access point to Stuart Street.
According to standard trip factors from the Institute of
Transortation Engineers, this PUD can be expected to generate
approximately 458 daily trips. The anticipated peak hour trip
generation and distribution are shown in an attached graphic.
To accommodate the new access to Stuart Street, it is desirable
to re -stripe Stuart Street to include a left turn lane fov
inbound traffic. In the PM peak hour, twelve vehicles air•
expected to turn left from westbound Stuart Street into Indian
Hills. This amount of traffic will require only a minimum left
turn lane. By eliminating on -street parking on Stuart Street for
approximately 440 feet, a 50-foot left turn lane can be provided.
The on -street bike lanes are not impacted with this design. 1
have provided a sketch of the striping plan for the City's
review.
With the restriping of Stuart Street, the surrounding street
system can safely accommodate the proposed development of Indian
Hills PUD. If you, or City Staff, have any further questions,
please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
....... Ka-thleen.,...L..:.Kr er,.....p.�E.,.....

Re: street Standards Variance
File:2.43471j1
Dear Jon:
I have carefully reviewed your street standards variance request
to use seven -foot parking stalls within Indian Hills, and I am in
support of this request for the following reasons:
1) The majority of cars on the road today are less than six feet
in width. This type of vehicle can easily park in a seven foot
parking area.
2) The use'of rolled curbs rather than vertical curbs will allow
vehicles to park closer to the curb without.risk of tire damage.
3) The use of different paving material for the parking areas
will assure the parking area is alwas easy to identify. This is
a great advantage over paint stripes which -often wear away in
parking areas before they can be repainted.
4) Numerous local jurisdictions allow seven -foot parking areas,
including: Lakewood, Westminster, Boulder, and Arvada. The
Institute of Transportation Engineers also identifies a seven -
foot cross section for parking areas. Thus, this design is
consistent with both local and national standards.
It is my professional opinion that the street cross section you
propose will be adequate to serve the traffic needs within Indian
Hills.

re: Street Variance Request
file: 2.4347var2
Dear Jon:
Per your request, I have reviewed your application for a variance
to the City of Fort Collins residential street standards
regarding the use of a public hammerhead turn -around at the
southeast Local Access Street and the connection of a private
driveway lane to the Northwest Local Access Street.
Both the hammerhead turnaround and the private drive will serve
six dwelling units each. Each of these streets can be expected
to serve less than 60 vehicles per day. Due to the low volume of
traffic projected for these street sections, the proposed designs
are acceptable.
The hammerhead turn -around is based on the Fort Collins Standard
Street Dimensions for alleys. The use of alley standards is
consistent with the low projected volume of traffic for this
street section.
The connection of the private driveway to Northwest Local Access
Street is also consistent with the projected low volume of
traffic. It is my understanding that the Home Owners Association
will be responsible for maintenance of the private driveway and
the design of the connection will provide a clear visual
differentiation between the private driveway and the public
street.
I do not .believe that these variances will cause any..public
health, safety, or welfare problems if approved.
Sincerely, i
