Barn~tt, P.E., PTOE, Traffic Engineer /~ Marcola Meadows Master Plan - Condition 27 From;' Please include' this memorandum in the fInal Council Agenda package concerning the appeal of Condition 27 by applicant. 1bis information supplements the Council Agenda package. 1bis memorandum and' attached conceptual drawing presents the fundaillental elements of the access lane, the roundabout at the arterial and collector roads intersection, the "T" intersection at site driveway on the arterial, and a connection between the access lane and the. arterial to visually describe how Condition 27, sections. 1, 2, 3 and 4 may be implemented. The drawing does not show right of way lines and it is expected that during a desigzi, process that the improvements shown in the drawing-would be closer to the southern right of way line than shown here. The improvements, as shown, use approximately 1.8 acres of applicant's land for Marcola Road. Land used for Martin Drive is not included in the estimate since right of way for Martin Drive is necessary in all cases. It is likely that less land will be needed when the fInal design' work is undertaken. Please reference staff report at Attachment 1-8 where SpringfIeld Municipal Code Section 3.014 Plan Approval Required, states that "Engineered plans for all public works projects woposed for construction within the city shall be submitted to the public works department for approval prior to start 'of any construction work." And please reference staff report at Attachment 1-10 where'the staff response describes the impacts in relation to the exaction and that an exaction up to two acres is not disproportionate to the impact. ,Direct access from neighborhood driveways to the arterial road that will have traffic volumes increase by 158% over predevelopment levels will be an unsafe traffic condition. The access lane runs along the southern right of way and provide; the neighborhood residents a low volume, low speed connection between individual driveways and the arterial roadway and el;m;no~es the need for vehicles to backup directly into the arterial street. Please reference staff report at Attachment 1-9 where SpringfIeld Development Code Section 4.2-105,Public Streets, requires initigation of "unsafe traffic conditions." RECEIVED .'
