Bill, As discussed on the phone today, here are the calculations from our consultant, SkipHudson, regarding the limit of permitted parking before triggering the need for adecelleration lane on the Frontage Road. Skip has been in contact with CDOT toconfirm their requirements. Skip is aware of our original permit application and thecalculations that supported the existing permit. Ideally, we would like your concurrence to proceed to lease up to 40 seasonalspaces, staying within the limits that Skip has identified. We would like to avoid thetime and expense of going through the process with CDOT to update our permit. The best time to promote the leasing of these spaces is between now and the endof October and we don't want to miss out on the opportunity. Please let me know your thoughts at your earliest convenience. Respectfully, Jack Hunn

Regarding 21 units, the trip generation would be 9 vph am & 11 vph pm, as
shown below
7-9 AM Peak Hour Enter 1
7-9 AM Peak Hour Exit 8
7-9 AM Peak Hour Total 9
4-6 PM Peak Hour Enter 7
4-6 PM Peak Hour Exit 4
4-6 PM Peak Hour Total 11
I didn’t do the traffic study that the permit was based on so I don’t know why
24 condos = 10 trips. The ITE reference document has changed since then so
it could be a different reference. In any case, the new traffic study supporting
the permit for this effort will need to show 21 condos = 11 trips. However, we
are dealing with the peak hour traffic volume that would make the eastboundright turn into the project driveway. In this case, the afternoon inbound volume
is the highest case with 7 vph inbound. Assuming no employees, the new
equation would be:
47 total allowed – 7 for condos = 40 parking spaces available (assuming no
employee parking)

Skip,
Thank you very much for your efforts and for your preliminary assessment of oursituation and the opportunity to lease some of our surplus spaces.
We had discussed the fact that some of the original 24 condos were joined together
by buyers of multiple units. There are really only 21 residences now in the finalconfiguration of ownership.
How many spaces might we lease with these adjustments?

Subject: CDOT response
I talked to CDOT and found you current permit. Here are the main points:
1. Permit is for 24 condo units, which equals 10 trips per hour at the
driveway (two way)
2. CDOT wont apply any credits for “second home” unless we do a week of
traffic counts to verify what is happening now (this would cost $2,500
alone – I use a subconsultant out of Denver for counts and this would be
their cost)
3. So your “base” demand would be 10 trips for condos
4. CDOT is not comfortable going right up to the allowed 50 trips per hour
and they want a 5% buffer, so the max we could show in the study
would be 47 trips.
Is this worth your while, and should I still prepare the proposal? thanks
