Dear John:
This letter is being sent as a follow-up to our meeting at the Windtrail Townhomes site
on Tuesday March 11 with Basil Harridan of the Stormwater Utility and Kathleen Reavis
of Transportation Planning. As we discussed, attached is a sketch of the improvements
to the emergency access/bike and pedestrian path that are needed. Also included are
the sample specifications for concrete bollards I obtained from the Parks Department.
As we agreed, you are responsible for installing two bollards at each end of the
emergency accessway in the locations shown on the sketch. Bollards are typically
required to restrict the general public from using emergency accessways for vehicular
access while still allowing pedestrians, bicycles, and emergency vehicles to use the
accessway. Since your original plan called for a portion of the width of the accessway
to be constructed out of grass-crete and instead it was constructed entirely in concrete,
the accessway now conflicts with an inlet on Shadowmere Court. The bollards at that
end are to be placed closer to the left side to direct pedestrians and bicycles to the
right. After the bollards are installed, please contact Kathleen Reavis at 221-6140 and
she will issue a work order for City crews to do some striping of the path to also direct
users to the right of the inlet.
Since the accessway serves the development and is not part of the City's right-of-way
nor bikeway system, the costs of this initial striping will be billed to you. Future
maintenance of the striping and bollards shall be the responsibility of the Homeowner's
Association. Please notify the appropriate representatives of the Association of this
future obligation. Again, the City is not obligated for maintenance of the striping nor
bollards since the accessway is not part of the City's right-of-way nor is it part of the
City's formal trail system.

Lastly, since the sidewalk and pedestrian ramp at the north and of the accessway must
be replaced due to da. ge, it was agreed that the ramp sh A be replaced in the
center of the accessway (instead of aligning it directly with the ramp at the cul-de-sac
on the north side) 'to facilitate the bicycle and pedestrian use of the connection from this
development to the Spring Creek Trail.
Thank you for your cooperation in attending to this matter as soon as possible. Please
feel free to contact me at 221-6750 or Kathleen at 221-6140 with any questions.
Sincerely,
040, C �
