The issue is on Hilton Garden Inn at Preston Center, a project that we are currently reviewing. It is located at the south corner of Timberwood Dr. and Gifford Ct. The easement in question is the grayed 9' utility easement just behind the sidewalk on the north side of Timberwood Dr. (Please refer to the attached figure). It is my understanding that Tricia Kroetch with Northstar will be coordinating with the Qwest folks regarding your existing telephone line, but I would like to know if any other utilities will be using the easement, and if the proposed design would be acceptable to you.

Attn: Mr. Robert Almirall, P.E. 2620 East Prospect Road, Suite 190 Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 SUBJECT: HARMONY ROAD BIKE LANE STRIPING Dear Robert: This letter concerns the striping of the bike lanes along Harmony Road adjacent to the Preston Center, First Filing and Preston Center, Third Filing ("Preston Center') projects. As you know, it is the City's policy to construct and stripe bike lanes on certain streets within the City in accordance with our street standards and the standards set forth by the City's Transportation Planning Department. Harmony Road, although categorized as State Highway 68, is also classified under the City's standards as a major arterial street. Because of this, the City is requiring the Developer of the Preston Center to construct the necessary bike lanes required. After a series of meetings and negotiations among you, your clients and City staff, it was determined that Harmony Road would be striped as indicated on the approved Utility Plans for the Preston Center. Because you have expressed concerns about the safety of the approved striping plan, I want to assure you that the City of Fort Collins accepts the responsibility and holds you and JR Engineering harmless of any wrong doing or professional negligence in the design of the proposed bike lanes. I hope this addresses your concerns regarding the striping of the bike lanes on Harmony Road. If you should have any questions concerning this matter, please contact this office at 970/221- 6605.

This DCP pertains to the construction of the Harmony Road Improvements between Corbett Drive and Ziegler Road. The application should be completed in its entirety and returned to the City of Fort Collins Development Review Engineering Department at your convenience:. For your information, the DCP cannot be issued until the A -line issues have been resolved, the State Highway Access Permits have been approved and the Notice -To -Proceed has been issued by the State. Currently the! A -Line amendment is scheduled for 2nd reading on August 15, 2000 and the State Highway Access Permits have been completed and approved by the State pending the approval of the A -Line amendment. Hence, I feel we can still hold the DCP meeting, since the plans have been approved, but the City would not issue the DCP until the above conditions have been met. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 970/221.6750 and/or e-mail: tblandford(c ci.fort-collins.co.us, should you have any further questions or concerns. Si Timothy R.

JR Engineering, Ltd. 2620 East Prospect Rd. Suite 190 Fort Collins, 'CC 80525 Re: Timberwood Drive variance request Dear Miss Kroetch: Thank you for submitting the variance request for Timberwood Drive at the Preston Center. The current street standards state that whenever a residential or collector street intersects another street, a tangent length shall be provided for safe sight distance and safe traffic operation. Since Timberwood is a collector street, the standards state that the minimum tangent length at the intersection of two streets shall be a minimum of 150 feet. However, after reviewing the traffic study and analyzing the sight distance, the City of Fort Collins' Engineering Department feels that the intersection of Timberwood Drive and Corbett Drive will operate safely and therefore will grant your request to vary the tangent length. If you should have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact this office at 221-6605. Since Tim R.

College Ave. Fort Collins, CO 80521 Mr. Stringer: On behalf of LGT Real Estate Advisors, we are requesting a variance in the Preston Center Development. The variance from City design criteria is related to the tangent length of Timberwood Drive approaching the intersection with Corbett Drive. The minimum allowable tangent length stated in the City of Fort Collins Design and Construction Criteria is 150' and we are proposing a tangent length of approximately 25'. The layout that is currently shown was approved with the Preliminary P.U.D. (which provides approval of layout and density) and the property to the south of Timberwood was sold based on this preliminary approval. Requiring a revision to the layout at this point in the process would create a hardship for both owners of the adjacent properties and require considerable revisions to the site plan that was approved with the Preliminary P.U.D. Please call if you have questions. Sincerely, I i Patricia Kroetc�E.
