This letter provides the written statement responses as required in the submittal checklist. Why the comprehensive plan is in need of revision, description of the request, the purpose, and the benefits of the request. The current Weld County Comprehensive Plan needs revision due to the proposed new WCR7 corridor (1-25 Parallel Arterial Study) and future high school site for the St. Vrain Valley School District. These improvements will leave the current comprehensive plan development boundaries different than logical growth patterns. Between WCR26 and WCR28, the MUD Area boundary extends west to WCR7, which does not allow for MUD type development along the west side of WCR7. To facilitate future development along the new WCR7 western corridor, currently outside the MUD Area boundary, the applicant proposes extending the western boundary to the Liberty Draw at the western boundary of Adler Estates, which will also serve as a natural buffering edge for agricultural lands to the west. Adler Estates proposed land use is consistent with existing MUD Area residential zoning adjacent to the proposed inclusion. Adler Estates includes a 300-acre master planned residential community with single- family attached and detached housing product. This use is allowed on the portion of Adler Estates within the MUD boundary. The St. Vrain Valley School District plans to construct the high school in 2006 concurrently with initial phases of Adler Estates. Expanding the MUD boundary will facilitate orderly growth near the high school and reduce vehicle trip times, rather than force development elsewhere. Lastly, when the original MUD was planned , sewer and water services were limited in this area. With recent expansions of the Longs Peak Water District and the St. Vrain Sewer district service boundaries this area is now capable of being adequately served for the purposes of low density residential development. Included in our submittal are 'Will Serve' letters from those service districts. land planning • urban design • landscape architecture • park planning 9137 S. Ridgeline Blvd., #130, Highlands Ranch, CO 80129 www.landarchitects.net phone (303) 734.1777 • tax(303)734,1778 es* fra LAND Li ARCHITECTS How the proposed amendment is consistent with existing and future goals policies and needs of the county. Section 22-1-120.A Comprehensive Plan guiding principles, of the current Weld County Comprehensive Plan, states that it is the goal of the Comprehensive Plan to express the needs and vision of a developing county, while protecting individual property rights. The Adler Estates site includes three contiguous parcels with one property owner. The parcels outside of the MUD Area are currently unusable remnants creating a hardship on the current property owner. Inclusion of the remaining parcels into the MUD Area will create a unified zoning classification in the area, and provide compatible development with a positive impact on the community. Section 22-2-190 Residential development goals and policies, of the current Weld County Comprehensive Plan states that adequate public services and facilities be currently available or reasonably obtainable to serve residential development. The proximity of Adler Estates to the current MUD Area roadway corridors allows efficient use of planned resources and infrastructure. With the improvements planned by Public Works and the School District near Adler Estates, our plans for development further support the criteria outlined in the Comprehensive Plan to develop around and in conjunction with planned infrastructure. How the proposed amendment is adjacent to and contiguous with the existing 1-25 MUD Area Map. As stated above, two thirds of Adler Estates is adjacent to the western MUD Area boundary at WCR7 between WCR26 and WCR28. The remaining one third of Adler Estates is within the MUD area east of WCR7 between WCR26 and WCR26.5. How the proposed amendment will not place a burden upon existing or planned service capabilities, including how emergency services shall be provided to the site. Adler Estates is near proposed school district and public works expansion projects. The applicant has contacted and/or held meetings with the local agencies affected by Adler Estates. These agencies have commented favorably and have encouraged the applicant to proceed with studies. The list of contacts includes the Mountain View Fire Protection District, which will provide fire protection services to Adler Estates.

Also attached is a summary of phone conversations and meeting minutes with other agencies regarding Adler Estates. The number of people who will reside in the proposed area. This shall include the number of school aged children and address the cultural and social service provision needs of the proposed population. Our development proposal allows for approximately 1,200 new residential dwelling units. Using the national multiplier of 2.5 people per household the total is approximately 3,000 residents for Adler Estates. As stated above, the site is located in the immediate vicinity of a future high school site that will serve resident of Adler Estates. The St. Vrain Valley School District may require an elementary school within Adler Estates. The master planned residential community will provide the necessary parks and open space land allocation in the form of neighborhood parks, perimeter landscaping, and trail systems connecting the proposed neighborhoods within Adler Estates. The Weld Library District has indicated that it plans to develop a new branch location along the CO 119 corridor east of 1-25, and expects the residents of Adler Estates to use this facility.

I appreciate the information about the Weld Library District's plans for future development. As I understood from our conversation, the probable location for a future library in the vicinity of our project would be along Hwy 119 on the East side of 1-25 near a commercial development. Based on the location of our potential development, it is my understanding that our client Melody Homes would not be required to provide the Weld Library District with any land dedication or fees as it is not directly adjacent to a commercial use area. I have provided a signature block below to confirm the details of our conversation as it relates to cultural impacts of our development in the Weld County MUD sub-area. This letter will be included in our submission packet for petition of inclusion into the MUD sub-area. If any issues come up in the future that change the direction of the district's master plan, please feel free to contact either Dave Andrews with Melody Homes at 303- 466-1831 or myself at 303-734-1777 regarding our project.

We reviewed this letter and provide the following summary of the January meeting. Discussion Items:. • Weld County Road 7 is classified as a major arterial roadway requiring a 140-foot right-of-way. Public Works will requite that access points to the arterial road be limited to half-mile intervals. The County will consider quarter-mile access jtoints if safety issues,roadway capacity and level of service(LOS)of the arterial road are not compromised. • The alignment'for Weld County Road 7 will jog west along Weld County Road 28 at the north end of the proposed development site,requiring adequate transportation geometric curvature through the applicant's property. The Weld 'moo mt1I-25 Parallel ArterjaiSludy documents this route. • The proposed development will need to allow flexibility on the south end of the site at Weld County Road 7 and Weld Countykoad 26 to accommodate southern connectivity for the proposed bridge and roadwaythrough the Barbour Ponds area. • The Public'Works Department is neutral on any future pedestrian connections (over or under WCR 7)to the future school site on the east side of the development. We feel a pedestrian connection can be provided at-grade,at a controlled intersection or with a pedestrian underpass. Considering the future vehicular volume on this roadway,a pedestrian underpass may provide a safer route to the school site. • The Alden States development has agreed to plan Weld County Road 26 h as a collector roadway with an 80-foot right- of-way. 3'lattedaight-of-way will be provided on the east and west sides of the property for future connectivity. The developer's tiroject.civil engineer and planner will research and determine the optimal crossing location for Weld County Road 26.',over the drainage way to the west of the development site with Public Works review. On-site roadways for the development will be designed according to the WCR 26''A alignment findings for future platting purposes. • • The developer shall provide improvements for Weld County Road 7 adjacent to the site. • The Public Works Department will not require the applicant to participate specifically in funding off-site improvements for the:bridge and roadway south of the development through Barbour Ponds. The funding of the bridge and roadway throuslhBefiour ponds will come from County-wide Road Impact Fees. • Weld County does not oppose the inclusion of this development into the MUD area as long as all of the MUD and Weld County criteria arc met. To date we have not received any submittals to make a formal determination. We look forward to additional studies and submittals for this development that will better define the project concept and overall development. Please let us know if we can provide any further review or assistance. Sincerely, Keith MeYe r P.F .. Engineering Manager Cc: Peter Schei,P.E. file • • • • • • '.

Discussion Summary Items: A.) Future WCR7 [140' ROW] arterial roadway access is limited to the half mile locations per policy and quarter mile locations would be considered upon demonstrating all safety issues and concerns have been addressed. B.) Current plan for WCR7 routing is to jog west along WCR28 at the north end of our site (see Weld County 1-25 Parallel Arterial Study), also there needs to be some flexibility at the south end of our site at WCR7 & WCR26 to allow for connectivity to bridge/roadway proposal through Barbour Ponds to the south. C.)Any pedestrian connection (over/under WCR7) to the future school site is not a requirement of the Public Works Dept., if planning/school dist. Staff requires one Public Works will review the design. The Public Works department is in favor of at grade crossings in conjunction with major roadway intersections. D.)WCR26.5 is planned as a local street, we should consider planning it as a collector and provide platted R.O.W. access for connection to the east and west of our site. However any off-site bridge and additional roadway construction costs for connectivity shall be the requirement of future development adjacent to our site. The developer's project civil engineer amd planner shall research/determine the optimal crossing location of WCR26.5 over the drainage way to the west and design on-site roadways accordingly for future platting purposes. c • Lt3 do gn • landscape 3T itec e • par- 9137 S.

Sunset St. #1-F Longmont, CO 80501 RE: Preliminary Traffic Study for MUD Inclusion Adler Estates (Melody Homes, Inc.) 300±Acres along WCR 7 between WCR 26 &WCR 28 Dear Mr. Borger: I have prepared a preliminary traffic study for the Melody Homes parcel along Weld County Road 7(WCR 7). The property generally includes the west side of WCR 7 between WCR 26 and WCR 28 and the east side of WCR 7 from WCR 26 to a point one-half mile to the north. The landowner wishes to be included in the Mixed Used Development Area (MUD) area. The site totals about 300 acres. Preliminary site traffic was estimated based the anticipated land use and density. The follow- ing site traffic is expected based upon published Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) trip generation rates. Daily AM Pk HR PM Pk Hr Use Size Rate Trips Rate In Out Rate In Out Single Family 1200 D.U. 9.57 11,484 0.75 225 675 1.01 764 448 As shown, 900 morning peak hour trips, 1,212 afternoon peak hour trips, and 11,484 trips per day can be expected from this parcel. Direct site access will be from WCR 7, WCR 26, and WCR 28. These existing roadways currently border the site. Preliminary traffic assignments to and from primary roadways are indicated below. This distribution is reasonably consistent with current traffic patterns and is logical given the anticipated land uses. Roadway Section % Site Traffic Daily Site Traffic CR 7 North of CR 28 35% 4,020 CR 5% South of CR 26 65% 7,460 SH 119 West of CR 5% 20% 2,300 East of CR 5'% 45% 5,170 SH 66 West of CR 7 10% 1,150 East of CR 7 25% 2,870 East of 1-25 5% 570 1-25 North of SH 66 20% 2,300 South of SH 66 35% 4,020 SH 66 and CR 5% are currently paved two-lane roadways having one lane in each direction. SH 119 is a divided four-lane roadway. Both SH 66 and SH 119 provide direct access to 1-25. CR 26 is presently an unpaved two-lane roadway. A comprehensive traffic study will be undertaken after acceptance into the MUD. That study will better define actions needed to mitigate the transportation impacts of this development on the area street system. It will be based upon more detailed information and a specific development proposal(s). At that time items such as site access, internal roadways, road- way lane-age, auxiliary lanes, intersections, and traffic controls will be fully addressed. I trust this letter will meet your current needs. Please give me a call if you have any ques- tions or need additional assistance. Sincerely, Eug e G.
