Please show the impacts to these trees. Also most of the future landscaping along the S.
Frontage Rd. is proposed to be planted in areas that are in conflict with future and existing
utilities. The notes on the plan regarding these conflicts are not adhered to. This landscaping
will require approval from the impacted Utilities; or the landscaping or utilities need to be
relocated to a better location. The landscaping in CDOT ROW will require CDOT approval.

Frontage Road Improvement Plan Comments
1. Provide drainage report or coordinate all drainage in one report with site drainage report submittal.
2. Provide storm sewer rim and inverts on plan. Provide pipe length and slope on plans. Provide storm
sewer profile. Most of this information is provided on the civil plans for the Lodge, however they need
to be coordinated.
3. Provide sections at 50' intervals and typical pavement section and details. Pavement design shall be
approved by CDOT.
4. A CDOT access permit shall be required to be approved prior to Civil Plan approval. Please provide a
copy.
5. Please provide grading along the entire stretch of the sidewalk. Will the new walk impact the existing
trees? Please show trees and dripline. How far to the north can we push the walk in order to
accommodate a future left turn lane at Buffehr Creek Rd. Please show an alternative design that will
accommodate the future left turn lane as we discussed in our last meeting (PLC).
6. The south shoulder shall be 6' wide (4.8(4) State Access Code March 2002)
7. According to the terms and conditions of the issued access permits;
a. The west access will require a raised channelization island for this egress only access. This
raised median shall meet or exceed the Town of Vail's standard median island. This typically
requires a section of; 1.5' spill curb, 2' concrete/paver apron, landscape, 2' concrete/paver apron,
1.5' spill curb. The landscape area shall be landscaped, irrigated, and have conduit provided for
lighting. The median shall encompass the striped median area, not the 50-100 square feet CDOT

b. Also each access permit requires the first 20' of a driveway slope away from the Frontage Rd. at
2%
c. And each access shall have a turning radius of 50'.
Condition (a) & (b) should be able to be achieved, but condition (c) may require a variance. This
variance should be submitted and reviewed by CDOT as soon as possible, and approved prior to
Building Permit approval.
