Subject:
The application package is incomplete as described below.
I) A Trafficlmpact Study is required. The previously TIS submitted in March, 2005 needs to
be revised and updated.
2) Sheet 5 needs to show all surrounding street and traffic control features as in Sheet I.
3) The application plans need to depict how the existing street features and traffic controls
would be revised to serve the proposed development; generic notes such as "TRAFFIC
EQUIP TO BE RELOCATED" are not adequate.
4) On-Site Traffic Circulation
a) It appears that a WB-40 truck may not be able to maneuver into the north loading dock.
Ifthis were possible, the wheel tracking path depicted on Sheet 5 demonstrates that it
would be impossible for another WB-40 truck to exit the loading area while the first
remained at the north dock,
b) A passenger car with 21-foot turning radius would not be able, to exiting the northernmost
phannacy drive-up lane by making a U- Twn. .
c) Two queued vehicles waiting to exit the site onto Pioneer Parkway would effectively
block the northerly entrance to the phannacy drive-up and the northbound exit lane for
'the eastside Walgreen's parking lot. Even ifthis access were not blocked, a northbound
vehicle trying to exit the east~ide Walgreen's parking lot and go north on Pioneer
Parkway would not be able to maneuver into the proper lane for making the left-turn onto
the Parkway.' , ~
