> N The Overlook at Arapahoe Farms has been updated and is being
E a)
p CD resubmitted to the City of FOrt Collins. As shown in Figure 1, this
z co site is located in the southwest quadrant of the Harmony/Seneca
Lli o
r� intersection. The new site plan is shown in Figure 2. Since a
2 Cr) comprehensive traffic study was already performed ("The Overlook at
w• i,i Arapahoe Farms PUD Site Access Study," November 1996) , the scope of
CD i this exercise provides a comparison of the trip generation of the
N 4. former and currently proposed land uses, and an alternative modes
analysis. When the cited traffic report was prepared, an alternative
N mode analysis was not a requirement of the City of Fort. Collins.
In the cited traffic study (1996) , the contemplated land uses
at the Overlook consisted of commercial and residential uses. The
trip' generation for the Overlook was: 2790 average weekday trip
ends, 267 morning peak hour trip ends, and 274 afternoon peak hour
trip ends. . . .
The proposed uses are similar to those in the previous plan.
Lot 4 of the previous plan was eliminated from the new plan. Table
1 shows the expected daily and peak hour trip generation from the
Overlook using Trip Generation, 6th Edition, ITE as the reference
ill document. The day care is considered to be an alternative use on Lot
1. The trip generation for the new Overlook plan is less than that
1.16 2 for the same area from the cited traffic study. It is expected that
W the new Overlook plan would generate: 1788 average daily trip ends,
•I z 115 morning peak hour trip ends, and 153 afternoon peak hour trip
ends. Even with the higher trip generation for the day care facility
Won Lot 1, the new plan will generate less vehicular traffic..

IOU F Figure 3 shows the location of the Overlook at Arapahoe Farms
C) Q and a radius of 1320 feet from the outer boundary of the parcel. Per
m the "Multimodal Transportation Level of Service Manual," there are
• pi. four existing or future "destination areas" within this radius. These
z four areas are designated by numbers: 1) the residential area to the
Q northwest of the site; 2) the residential area to the northeast of
o�
F- the site; 3) the residential area (existing and future) to the east
W cis and south of the site; and 4) the Kathy Fromme Prairie Trailhead.
I v Appendix A contains the Pedestrian LOS Worksheets for the Overlook
u.. as it relates to these "destination areas." The Overlook site is in
F' ¢ a Pedestrian District that is termed "other." The minimum pedestrian
4 level of service for this district is C for all factors. Generally,
2 there are sidewalks along all properties within the quarter mile of
•
this site that are developed. Future development will build sidewalks as
part of their development plans. There is no sidewalk along the south and
north sides of a portion of Harmony Road to the east of the site. It is
not known when this segment of sidewalk will be completed. It is
recommended that the sidewalk be completed along Harmony Road as part of
future. City street improvements to Harmony Road. The pedestrian level of
service for the Overlook will be acceptable.
There is one bicycle "priority destination area" within 1320 feet of
the Overlook at Arapahoe Farms. This is the Kathy Fromme Prairie
Trailhead. An inventory of all arterial and collector streets within 1320
feet of the Overlook indicates that bike lanes exist or will exist on all
streets. Appendix B contains the Bicycle LOS Worksheet for the Overlook.
The bicycle level of service is/will be acceptable.
There are no existing bus routes within 1320 feet of the Overlook at
Arapahoe Farms. According to the Fort Collins City Plan - 2015 Transit.
System Map, Harmony Road will have feeder service with 30 minute service.
Appendix C contains a transit worksheet for the four specific transit
destinations mentioned in the "Multimodal Transportation Level of Service
Manual." The transit level of service will be acceptable.
Conclusion
It is concluded that the trip generation for the new plan for the
Overlook at Arapahoe Farms will be less than that for the land uses on the
site plan as shown in the comprehensive traffic study. The multimodal
analysis indicates that acceptable level of service will be achieved.
