COLORADO
SUBJECT: S-403; Meadow Vale Farms (Floyd Oliver)
I have received numerous calls from homeowners in the Meadow Vale Farms Subdivision inquiring about the
realignment and paving of WCR 5.5. I spoke with Floyd Oliver on Monday. June 22, 1998, and he had indicated
that he would get the Colorado State Access Permit that same day from the Greeley Office of the Colorado
Department of Transportation. He stated that this has been the cause of the delay of improvements to WCR 5.5.
Referring-to Items 1 through 8 of the Road Maintenance and Improvement Agreement (Off Site) dated October 9,
1996, the applicant is currently paving sections of roads and cul-de-sacs in the Third Filing of the Meadow Vale
Farms PUD. I would like to have the developer supply a construction schedule for upgrading, realigning, and
paving of WCR 5.5 with construction completed in 1998. I spoke with Gloria Idler at the Colorado Department of
Transportation today and she indicated Mr. Oliver could pick up the permit on Wednesday, July 1, 1998. I
recommend a planner be assigned to this case to monitor the internal phases or filings as to collateral, sidewalks,
landscaping requirements, and street signs.
Please find attached a copy of the road maintenance and improvements agreement off site.

Subject: Meadow Vale Subdivision Improvements to SH 119 and Weld County Road 5.5
Dear Ms. Jones:
I have reviewed the request made by the Developer of Meadow Vale Subdivision to allow for an amendment
to the approved Improvements Agreement by allowing a temporary right-turn deceleration lane for west
bound traffic onto Weld County Road 5.5. This amendment would allow for the Certificate of Occupancy
to be released for houses constructed in the 2nd filing of Meadow Vale Subdivision prior to the re-alignment
of Weld County road 5.5.
The Department of Planning Service's staff does not have any concerns with the request as long as the
following conditions are met:
1. Meadow Vale Subdivision will be limited to no more than 35 Certificates of Occupancy until the re-
alignment of Weld County Road 5.5 has been completed.
2. The improvements for re-aligned Weld County Road 5.5 will be constructed no later than July 1,1998.
3. The existing improvements agreement must be amended to allow for the changes being proposed. r
It is my intention to work with the developer and representatives to amend the existing Improvements
Agreement by the end of the month of November. If you have any further questions,I may be reached at
the number or address above.
Sincere ,

RE: Temporary Right-Turn Deceleration Lane for Westbound Traffic on Highway 119
Turning North Onto Weld County Road 5.5.
KBN Project No. 96053
Dear Tess:
As we have discussed the development of Meadow Vale Farm Subdivision includes relocating
Weld County Road 5.5 to the east of its current location. This relocation will allow the
construction of a perpendicular access with Highway 119. In conjunction with this re-alignment
of the county road, acceleration and deceleration lanes will be required on Highway 119. This
letter is a request to CDOT to allow the construction of a temporary right-turn deceleration lane
for westbound traffic on 119 at existing Weld County Road 5.5.
The traffic study for Meadow Vale Farm Subdivision completed in March, 1995 indicated that
10 dwelling units could be built before a right-turn deceleration lane would be required. At this
time there are six houses occupied, two with certificates of occupancy that have not been sold,
five that will be occupied by the end of the year, and eight more homes under various stages of
construction. As can be seen,the total number of houses built will be above 10 before next
spring.
KBN Engineers have applied for a Change of Deeded Access Control Line from CDOT and are
in the process of final design for the realigned Weld County Road 5.5, which includes the
necessary acceleration and deceleration lanes on Highway 119. However, this work can
probably not be completed, approved and constructed prior to the asphalt plants closing this fall.
For this reason we would like to construct the temporary deceleration lane this fall to keep the
development of Meadow Vale Farm Subdivision moving forward through the winter months. It
is still our plan to finish design of the re-aligned Weld County Road 5.5 this fall, get approval
from CDOT as soon as possible and construct the improvements when the asphalt plants open in
the spring of 1998. The improvements for re-aligned Weld County Road 5.5 will be constructed
no later than July 1, 1998.
Included with this letter is a memo from Mathew Delich indicating that approximately 43 homes
can be built in Meadow Vale prior to a left-turn deceleration lane being necessary on Highway

119. The re-aligned Weld County Road 5.5 will be constructed prior to reaching this point.
Also included is an access application and plan sheet showing the proposed temporary
deceleration lane.
Tess let me know if you need further information or if you have any questions. I appreciate your
assistance regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
Steve Butherus, PE

cm the 1995 peak hour turning movement counts were used as the
=w base condition. These counts indicate 3 eastbound left turns

afternoon peak hour. Consistent with the previous the east analysisand ss
(NI Cl-
