Larry Begin forwarded message: From: " Matt Delich" <matt@delichassoc.com> Date: May 2, 2013 6:30:58 PM MDT To: "Larry Owen" <larrycowen@comcast.net> Subject: Re: Ridgewood Hills Larry, With regard to the Avondale/Triangle roundabout redesign or change, I would like to clarify my comment. In discussions with various engineers, this roundabout was added without using roundabout design criteria. It may have been an 'after thought' in an attempt to achieve traffic calming. As it currently exists, neighbors who use it, have been critical of it. A proper design would have right-of-way impacts on all four corners. It is likely that a proper design would be met with some resistance from the adjacent property owners. If a proper redesign is not practicable, then perhaps the City should remove the roundabout and implement stop sign control. My suggestion is not related to the Ridgewood Hill Apartment project, but rather something that should be addressed by the City, regardless of any development activity in the area. Call or email questions.

Would you please clarify the intent of that statement? Thank you. Larry=
