The creation of an expansion to the MUD area is of concern for surrounding land uses.Agricultural uses currently occur on land referred to in this application. Adjacent Land uses are predominantly agricultural in nature with associated rural residences. When developing the MUD Plan,a ratio of employment centers,residential areas,parks andtransit centers appear carefully planned in correlation to the total planned area.

The western site will generate approximately 14,600 trips per day and the eastern site will generate 1,400. Mr. Cappola's preliminary traffic studies do not provide information on the impact to the roadway systems that serve the area. Traffic that will be generated by development of these properties will have a significant impact on the I-25 Interchange, State Highway 66,and County Roads 32, 9 %,and 13. Some of the necessary roadway improvements will be additional lanes,turning lanes,intersection improvements and traffic signals. In the application materials, under the section entitled Roads, the last sentence reads, "As development occurs, impact fees will be assessed by the County to provide adequate funding to design and construct the necessary roadway improvements." We wish to make it clear,impact fees were created strictly for capacity improvements to the overall roadway system. Any improvements necessary to facilitate access to a development are the responsibility of that development. At the Reynolds/Woods, Amend MUD 4 time a site is developed, detailed traffic studies will be required identifying traffic impacts of that development and the roadway improvements needed to facilitate access to the development.(Weld County Department of Public Works) The St.Vrain School District in their referral response dated November 5,2001 did not support the applicants proposal and stated "The District opposes the approval of plats within this development proposal until there is capacity available in these schools (Mead Elementary and Middle Schools, Skyline High School) or there are new schools available to serve this area. Should this proposal be considered for approval by the County, the District's land dedication and cash-in-lieu requirements would still need to be satisfied." (St. Vrain Valley School District) The Department of Planning Services'staff recommendation for approval is conditional upon the following: 1. Any improvements necessary to facilitate access to a development are the responsibility of that development. At the time a site is developed,the applicants shall be required to provide detailed traffic studies identifying traffic impacts of that development and the roadway improvements needed to facilitate access to the development. Evidence or acknowledgment of such shall be provided to the Department of Planning Services.(Weld County Department of Public Works) 2. The applicants shall attempt to address the St. Vrain Valley School District's land dedication, cash-in-lieu and the requirements identified in the referral response dated November 5, 2001. Evidence or acknowledgment of such shall be provided to the Department of Planning Services. (St. Vrain Valley School District) 3. The applicant shall attempt to address the Mountain View Fire Protection District's referral request of October 30,2001."When development occurs,plans for such development must be submitted to the Fire District for review and approval; and all applicable code as they pertain to water supply, fire hydrant locations, fire depai Intent access, street designs and building construction must be met." Evidence or acknowledgment of such shall be provided to the Department of Planning Services. (Mountain View Fire Department) This recommendation is based,in part,upon a review of the application materials submitted by the applicant, other relevant information regarding the request, and responses from referral entities.
