Sketch Plan Proposal
Project Report
[Revised]
August 14, 2015
1.0 Introduction
A residential housing development to be known as The Fields is proposed by The Fields Development Group,
LLC (the Applicant) and represented by Keith Ehlers of 3SE, LLC (the representative). Members of the
Applicant’s development team and the representative live and work in the Roaring Fork Valley and are keenly
aware of the community need for housing and economic development, while maintaining the lifestyle and cultural
amenities the Valley has always offered.
The Fields subdivision is located at 554 Valley Road in El Jebel, having a parcel number of 2391-334-01-003.
The site is 19.39 Acres on the north side of Valley Road and adjacent to the south right of way for Hwy 82 near
the intersection of Valley Road and Hwy 82 west of El Jebel.
The Applicant proposes that the property be rezoned to Residential Multi-Family (RMF) to provide ninety eight
(98) residential homes at four (4) different price points by utilizing three (3) housing sizes and two (2) housing
types at a density of 5 units per acre in compliance with Eagle County Land Use Regulations and the recently
approved Mid Valley Area Community Plan. The residential opportunities are accompanied by the proposal of
community gardens, a pocket park with a playground, recyclable materials station, and over 2,000 linear feet of
Public Trail connecting to existing trail corridors and river access points.

2.0 Sketch Plan Process and Criteria
2.1 APPLICATION AND REVIEW PROCESS
Upon meeting with Staff at the Eagle County Planning Department it was indicated that the Applicant’s proposal
for residential development using the ‘Subdivision’ approval process is different than the ‘PUD’ process
sometimes pursued by others and presented for review. With that in mind this section is intended to briefly
explain why the Subdivision approval process is the most appropriate process for the proposed development.
The difference between a PUD and a Subdivision is primarily about the zoning applied to the development.
Standard Subdivisions implement conventional zone districts as established by the Eagle County Land Use
Regulations. By using the existing standards, restrictions, and allowed uses of conventional zone standards a
welcomed increase of predictability will be enjoyed; and will efficiently establish land use within a designated
zone that has already been vetted, approved, and deemed appropriate by the community at large, and its policy
makers. Alternatively, a PUD permits variations from the strict application of standards of the conventional zone
districts and essentially creates a custom zone district in the form of a PUD Guide.
This project is located within the El Jebel Community Center (aka Town Center) which has been through a major
public process that ultimately led to the adoption of the Mid Valley Area Community Plan as part of the Eagle
County Master Plan. The goals and intentions for land use standards within the Mid Valley Area Community
Plan is thorough and has been accepted by the community at large so it does seem appropriate to propose custom
variations or deviations in the form of a PUD proposal. Therefore, The Fields Subdivision is proposed as a
standard Subdivision for review.
This proposal is the ‘Sketch Plan’ step of the Subdivision process (see flow chart below). Eagle County Planning
Department Staff indicated that they sometimes receive Sketch Plan and Preliminary Plan at the same time, but
the Applicant does not wish to combine the two steps. The Sketch Plan brochure provided by the Planning
Department states:
“The outcome of sketch plan review should be an identification of issues and concerns the applicant
must address if the project is ultimately to receive final subdivision approval from the County.”
Therefore, the applicant wishes to address the known considerations of off-site traffic mitigation as well as
receive feedback on the proposed development to reach an agreement on the general concepts for development
and mitigation proposals prior to making the next phase of investment for the project in the form of the finalizing
the traffic study and detailed engineering. The initial investment to date has already included significant
engineering assessment and traffic study as part of the project feasibility assessment.
Eagle County Planning Department provided the flow chart below and the Applicant intends to pursue the process
indicated by the steps shown in blue: [Additional steps such as a 1041 permit application and an revising the Access
Control Plan for Hwy 82 will also be necessary but are not shown below.]
2|Page
2.2 THE PURPOSE OF SKETCH PLAN [per Eagle County Land Use Regulations Section 5-280.B.1.a]:
“The purpose of sketch plan review is for the applicant, the County and the public to evaluate and
discuss the basic concepts for development of the proposed subdivision, and to consider whether
there are any alternative concepts the applicant should explore. It is the time when determinations
should be made as to whether the proposed subdivision substantially complies with these Land Use
Regulations and is in substantial conformance with the Eagle County Comprehensive Plan, Area
Community Plans, and any applicable ancillary County adopted documents pertaining to natural
resource protection, affordable housing, or infrastructure management, and is generally compatible
with the existing and currently permissible future uses of adjacent land and other substantially
impacted land, services, or infrastructure improvements. It is also the opportunity to reach general
agreement on such issues as the appropriate range of units and commercial space for development;
the general locations intended for development and the areas planned to remain undeveloped; the
general alignments for access; and whether water supply and sewage disposal will be provided via
on-site systems or through connection to public systems. The outcome of sketch plan review should
be an identification of issues and concerns the applicant must address if the project is ultimately to
receive final subdivision approval from the County. (am 11/08/05) (am 05/08/12)”
The Applicant’s feasibility study for this project was prompted by the overwhelming expression of need by the
local community of individuals, the public sector, and private enterprise for the provision of reasonable housing
opportunities in the area, as well as economic considerations. Once a market call was verified, the design team
focused heavily on the development and review of various concept plans that considered the following directive
from page 7 of the Mid Valley Area Community Plan that led to the proposed plan of the The Fields subdivision
as the most appropriate development of the site:
"The Mid Valley Area Community Plan is a guiding document, as master plans are not regulatory in
Eagle County. However, Eagle County Land Use Regulations do require conformance to the plan,
and as such its goals and policies should be viewed as both relevant and significant.” [Page 7 of
MVACP]
Based on the above directive from the MVACP, the proposal was developed and designed with a focus on the
recently approved Mid Valley Area Community Plan (2013) and the Eagle County Land Use Regulations to be
compatible with the existing surrounding uses and provide appropriate density for current and future community
planning. The proposal conforms with applicable ancillary County adopted documents including ‘Sustainable
Communities’, ‘Public Trails Plan’, and ‘Affordable Housing’. The proposal also considers its location within the
existing Mid Valley Metropolitan Utility District, which has indicated it can service this development, although a
1041 permit will be required and will be submitted simultaneously with Preliminary Plan and Rezone submittal.
2.3 LAND USE ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY [Also see ‘Section 5.0 Alternative Considerations’ herein].
Consideration and alternatives were reviewed for various housing types before selecting the proposed mix of
duplex and medium single family lots. However, a recently performed market analysis shows an abundance of
high density apartments and townhomes have been approved or are ‘in-process’ to be approved, and revealed the
need and desire for medium density development of duplexes and detached single family units to be high, yet
woefully unavailable. [See ‘Section 5.0 Alternative Considerations’ of this report]
Once the density and housing types were guided by the MVACP and a market analysis, the Applicant’s design
team generated several alternative conceptual layouts to be considered for development of the site. Of the options
considered, the proposed plan best services the community’s current and future residential needs, while providing
the most favorable combination of: mixed residential use, traffic mitigation, compliance with the plans and
policies of Eagle County, and compatible incorporation with the public amenities and logistical master planning
of the El Jebel ‘Community Center’.
At one of the early meetings, County Planning Staff raised consideration of an alternative concept, which would
cluster the housing units on a limited portion of the site. The Applicant’s subsequent analysis found that to
maintain the targeted density of the MVACP near a ‘Community Center’ with public services and infrastructure
3|Page
as stated in Goal 3.1 of the MVACP, clustering would force the development to provide small townhouse or
apartment units. These types of units are becoming abundant in this market and would inhibit the development of
a diversity of unit types, sizes, and price points in the El Jebel ‘Community Center’. Approprite development that
helps meet the goals and intentions of the MVACP density designation is particularly important when considering
this property is one of the last remaining sites suitable for development of density near existing infrastructure in
the area.
3.0 Land Use
The Fields subdivision is an appropriate development in the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ that can be reviewed,
approved, and built efficiently and predictably using the tools and parameters set forth in the existing land use
regulation documents with no deviation or variances necessary. Therefore, The Fields is proposed as a Sketch
Plan application for Subdivision, not a Planned Unit Development (PUD).
The Fields subdivision is compatible with the surrounding community because it will incorporate design elements
in consideration of the adjacent neighborhoods and enhance and preserve the broader El Jebel ‘Community
Center’. Additionally, the future vision of planning for the area’s forecasted growth is addressed by The Fields’
adherence to the stated specifications, goals, and intentions of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations (ECLUR)
and Eagle County’s adopted policies such as the recently approved Mid Valley Area Community Plan (MVACP),
Affordable Housing Guidelines, and Sustainable Community considerations.
The 19.39 acre site is currently zoned Rural Residential (RR), but the Mid Valley Area Community Plan
(MVACP) and its Future Land Use Map (FLUM) approved in 2013 designates the site to be developed as Urban /
Suburban Residential (USR) with a density range of 3-7 units per acre in consideration of its proximity to the El
Jebel ‘Community Center’. The Fields subdivision is proposed in the middle of the USR density range at 5 units
per acre and requests a rezone to Residential Multi-Family (RMF). The RMF zone is compatible with the
MVACP designation and the proposed development meets its land use requirements and the overall purpose of
the zone as defined in the following excerpt from Article 3 of the ECLUR:
“The purpose of the Residential Multi-Family (RMF) zone district is to provide for higher density
residential development within the County's community centers, where transportation facilities,
necessary infrastructure and employment opportunities are already available. This is accomplished by
permitting development of single-family, duplex and multi-family residences on lots of six thousand
(6,000) square feet or larger and by setting maximum lot coverage and maximum floor area standards
appropriate for such uses and lots. The zone district also permits the development of small, conveniencetype commercial uses to serve the neighborhood.”
The Fields subdivision is proposed as 98 single family residential homes. The two general housing types that will
make up the residential housing offerings include detached single family homes on lots ranging from 6,000-8,000
s.f., and duplex units also known as ‘attached single family homes’. The detached single family home lots are
designed to target a floor plan of around 2,100 s.f. of living space; however, the homes may be built by individual
lot owners who will determine the exact size of the home built within the constraints of each lot’s size and the
HOA CC&R’s.
In response to feedback from Planning Staff, each duplex lot is proposed as a single large lot that will
accommodate the construction of two attached duplex units and will be administratively subdivided into two fee
simple lots for individual ownership once the common wall is constructed and can be defined precisely on the
plat. The duplex lots are designed to accommodate two different unit sizes. Lots identified on the Sketch Plan as
Duplex ‘A’ are designed to accommodate two units having a footprint no wider than thirty feet (30’) each, thus
creating a duplex building structure of sixty feet (60’) wide or less. Duplex ‘A’ units have a targeted floor area of
1,100 s.f. per unit and include a garage. Lots identified on the Sketch Plan as Duplex ‘B’ are designed to
accommodate two units having a footprint no wider than forty feet (40’) each, thus creating a duplex building
structure of eighty feet (80’) wide or less. Duplex ‘B’ units have a targeted floor area of 1,800 s.f. per unit and
include a garage.
4|Page
The three different sizes of proposed homes coupled with the designation of some of those homes to be
‘affordable housing’, as defined by the Eagle County Affordable Housing Guidelines provides housing
opportunities at four (4) different price points. The housing opportunities in the Fields subdivision are
accompanied by community gardens, a pocket park with a playground, recyclable materials station, and over
2,000 linear feet of Public Trail connecting to existing trail corridors and river access points. The mix of
residential home size and type is broken down as follows:
#
Type
Size
38
Duplex 'A'
±1,100 s.f.
34
Duplex 'B'
±1,800 s.f.
26
Single Family
>2,100 s.f.
98 TOTAL # UNITS
4.0 Compatibility
When considering the development’s compatibility with surrounding uses the Applicant’s design team looked into
multiple alternatives to determine the best solution for compatibility with both, the neighbors who are directly
adjacent to the site, and the bigger picture of the El Jebel ‘Community Center’.
‘Community Centers’ are referred to often, and with significance, throughout the ECLUR, the MVACP, and the
other adopted policies. As shown in the graphic below, El Jebel is a nearly perfect example of a ‘Community
Center’ that is identified as a location where development should occur at higher density to fully utilize its
favorable proximity to infrastructure, mass transit, public services, public parks, trails, recreation centers, retail,
groceries, and entertainment.
5|Page
Future growth in the Valley is expected and providing density in and around these ‘Community Centers’ will
mitigate urban sprawl and protect the surrounding valley hillsides, features, outdoor lifestyles, and culture. The
significance and value of ‘Community Centers’ is one of many reasons why development of the proposed site is
best considered as part of the ‘big picture’ and not just as an ‘island’ of development. The Fields’ compatibility
with the broader vision of the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ is best revealed by the The Fields compliance with
the MVACP and other adopted plans and policies to provide a reasonable range of housing types and price points
near existing infrastructure so locals can live in close proximity to urban amenities, and expansive open spaces
with great views while enjoying their lifestyle of choice in the Roaring Fork Valley.
When considering the appropriate combination of the broader goals of the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ and the
focused visions of the neighborhoods adjacent to the site, some assumption is made that adjacent neighbors chose
to participate in the recent public process to develop the MVACP which designates development for this site at a
slightly higher density than that of their own. With that said, a deliberate and successful effort was made to
accommodate transitions between the adjacent neighborhoods by designing the proposed housing, and the
location within the site, to respect the visual perception of continuity and compatibility with surrounding
neighborhoods. The visual perception of the size and mass of the proposed duplex building structures is
comparable to the size and mass of detached single family homes found in surrounding residential neighborhoods.
The homes in surrounding neighborhoods have building structure widths ranging from 50’-80’ wide, and the
proposed duplex lots will allow widths of the structure to be no greater than 60’ or 80’ depending on the lot
designation. Duplexes have proven to be an effective way of accomplishing this feat by using architectural
controls enforced by the Home Owners Association that require them to be built in a manner attempting to
visually project it as a single larger home and disguises its nature of being two smaller homes by discouraging
floorplans that mirror each unit; and encourage design integration of thoughtful roof lines, window and access
locations, appropriate exterior materials, and driveway/garage separation. The duplexes built in this manner will
appear as a single large home of equal or larger size than the adjacent neighbors. This intent is particularly
effective when viewing the rear of the homes from the adjacent neighborhoods and travel corridors like Hwy 82
and Valley Road because the driveways and garages are not visible. The provision of garages and appropriate
driveway dimensions, as required by the ECLUR, will provide ample parking for each attached single family
dwelling unit making up the duplex. Further detail and a completed HOA CC&R’s and Architectural Controls
documents that define how this intent shall be implemented will be provided at Preliminary or Final Plan
submittal.
5.0 Alternative Considerations
The Applicant considered multiple alternatives in the process of designing, assessing, and selecting the most
appropriate layout and configuration for The Fields subdivision proposal. The criteria considered when assessing
the alternative plans included:
a. Economic feasibility
b. Conformance with ECLUR, MVACP, and other adopted policies.
c. Compatibility with surrounding uses and the ‘Community Center’ vision for anticipated growth.
In light of these criteria the Applicant considered alternative plans that included:
 Maximize density range recommended by the MVACP (of 7 units per acre) resulting in variations
that yielded either efficient grid patterned roads with reasonably sized lots, or less efficient road
patterns that required small lots to still achieve density. Reaching the upper limit of the recommended
density range would inhibit the ability to provide mixed housing size/type/price points. Additionally
the Applicant determined the housing options necessary to meet the higher density would be less
compatible with surrounding uses and would be in direct competition with the large number of high
density units currently available or in the process of approval at Shadow Rock and The Tree Farm
developments.
 Minimize density range recommended by the MVACP (of 3 units per acre) resulting in variations that
yielded large lots that were ‘more of the same’ as what is found in adjacent and surrounding
neighborhoods and provided no diversity on one of the few remaining developable properties in the
El Jebel ‘Community Center’. Additionally the lower unit count was found to be economically
infeasible considering today’s development costs for project in this location.

Middle of the density range recommended by the MVACP (of 5 units per acre) resulting in variations
such as the proposed plan of mixed units and amenities, and alternatives of static housing types
throughout the site or utilization of the concept of clustering which would force the density into a
reduced area that required smaller units and limited the ability to provide diversity as well has being
in direct competition of the large number of smaller units currently available, or in the process of
approval at Shadow Rock and The Tree Farm developments.

In addition to the housing type availability evidence shown above, further assessment of price points,
affordability, and financing options for residents of the area added support to the provision of duplexes and
medium sized detached single family homes.
6.0 Conformance with Eagle County Regulations and Adopted Policies:
Portions of Section 6 below include text extracted directly from Eagle County Land Use Regs and adopted
policies. The Applicant has responded to the items regarding how the proposed development addresses each item.
The original document text remains in black text color and the Applicant’s responses are in blue text.
6.1 EAGLE COUNTY LAND USE REGULATIONS (ECLUR):
Article 5, Section 5-280.B.3.e – Sketch Plan for Subdivision Standards:
(1) Conformance with Comprehensive Plan. The proposed subdivision shall be in substantial conformance
with the purposes, intents, goals, and policies of the Eagle County Comprehensive Plan, Area Community
Plans, and any applicable ancillary County adopted documents pertaining to natural resource protection,
affordable housing, or infrastructure management. (am 11/08/05) (am 05/08/12)
The Fields proposal conforms with the intent, goals, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The Mid Valley
Area Community Plan was the guiding document for consideration of land use, density, and integration with
existing infrastructure and public amenities such as trails, parks, and open spaces associated with the El Jebel
Community Center.
7|Page
(2) Consistent with Land Use Regulations. The proposed subdivision shall comply with all of the standards of
this Section and all other provisions of these Land Use Regulations, including, but not limited to, the applicable
standards of Article 3, Zone Districts, and Article 4, Site Development Standards.
The Fields proposal is submitted as a standard Subdivision proposal primarily due to its consistency with Land
Use Regulations and its existing development standards without the need for variations or deviations.
(3) Spatial Pattern Shall Be Efficient. The proposed subdivision shall be located and designed to avoid
creating spatial patterns that cause inefficiencies in the delivery of public services, or require duplication or
premature extension of public facilities, or result in a "leapfrog" pattern of development.
The Fields proposal fills in one of the last remaining properties designated for medium to high density
residential use near the existing infrastructure of the El Jebel Community Center. See section 4.0 and 6.2 of this
report for further discussion.
(a) Utility and Road Extensions. Proposed utility extensions shall be consistent with the utility's service
plan or shall require prior County approval of an amendment to the service plan. Proposed road extensions
shall be consistent with the Eagle County Road Capital Improvements Plan.
The Fields proposal meets this criteria.
(b) Serve Ultimate Population. Utility lines shall be sized to serve the planned ultimate population of the
service area to avoid future land disruption to upgrade under-sized lines.
The Fields proposal will provide appropriately sized lines to meet this criteria with input from the
Mid Valley Metro District, although the primary infrastructure already exists adjacent to the
property and is sized appropriately as it exists.
(c) Coordinate Utility Extensions. Generally, utility extensions shall only be allowed when the entire
range of necessary facilities can be provided, rather than incrementally extending a single service into an
otherwise un-served area.
No utility extensions are proposed because the site is adjacent to existing infrastructure capable of
servicing the development by Mid Valley Metro District.
(4) Suitability for Development. The property proposed to be subdivided shall be suitable for development,
considering its topography, environmental resources and natural or man-made hazards that may affect the
potential development of the property, and existing and probable future public improvements to the area.
The proposed site has been deemed suitable for residential development at a density of between 3-7
units per acre by the Mid Valley Area Community Plan (Note: The Fields is proposed as 5 units per
acre). The site is on the valley floor with topographical challenges and is not in a flood plain.
Existing irrigation and drainage ditches will be addressed so as to negatively affect users upstream or
downstream.
(5) Compatible with Surrounding Uses. The proposed subdivision shall be generally compatible with the
existing and currently permissible future uses of adjacent land, and other substantially impacted land, services,
or infrastructure improvements. (am 05/08/12)
The Fields proposal is compatible with both the existing adjacent uses as well as the broader scope of the El
Jebel Community Center. See section 4.0 of this report for further detail.
(6) Adequate Facilities. The applicant shall demonstrate that the development proposed in the Sketch or
Preliminary Plan will be provided adequate facilities for potable water supply, sewage disposal, solid waste
disposal, electrical supply, fire protection and roads and will be conveniently located in relation to schools,
police and fire protection, and emergency medical services (orig. 03/28/06)
The Fields proposal is within the Mid Valley Metro District and has received an “Ability to Serve” letter. The
site is in an existing residential neighborhood and the El Jebel Community Center with available emergency
services. Roaring Fork School District is currently considering locating a school within a 2 mile radius of the
proposed site within the next 5-10 years. See the response to Policy 1.2.1.a within Section 6.2.C of this report
for further detail.

6.2 MID VALLEY AREA COMMUNITY PLAN (MVACP):
The MVACP was updated in 2013. The Applicant highly prioritized conforming with MVACP because of the
language on page 7 of the MVACP that reads:
"The Mid Valley Area Community Plan is a guiding document, as master plans are not regulatory
in Eagle County. However, Eagle County Land Use Regulations do require conformance to the
plan, and as such its goals and policies should be viewed as both relevant and significant.”
The adoption of the MVACP came after months of recommendations from multiple public meeting, over 45
contacted entities and stakeholders in the area, and then onto Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) before finally
being approved and adopted by the Planning Commission. The applicable key components, objectives, and
considerations for development per the MVACP and how The Fields subdivision meets or exceeds these goals are
as follows:
A. Planning Objectives [per ‘Introduction’ Page 6 MVACP]
1. Provide a master plan that would effectively guide land use over the next ten to fifteen years,
consistent with the values and needs of the Mid Valley Community.
The Fields subdivision matches the density range, infrastructure, and ‘Community Center’
considerations associated with the study and discussions of housing needs reflected by the approved
MVACP.
2. Provide opportunities for urban and suburban growth within and near ‘Community Center’s
along Highway 82.
The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) provides a guide for development in and around the ‘Community
Center’ of El Jebel that meets the goals and intentions of the approved MVACP. The FLUM
designation for development on the proposed site is Urban/Suburban Residential (USSR) and calls for
a density range of 3-7 dwelling units per acre. The Fields subdivision is in the middle of the USSR
density range by proposing 5 dwelling units per acre.
3. Encourage compact development, multi modal connectivity and walkability within developed
areas along Highway 82.
The location and proximity of the proposed site within the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ requires the
development to be viewed as an integral part of the larger ‘Community Center’ rather than just an
independent ‘island’ of development. If the project was located in a more rural area and was
developed as its own ‘community neighborhood’ an independent study of clustering and consideration
of its isolation may be warranted, but such is not the case for this proposal. The Fields subdivision
proposed density and mixed residential unit price points adheres to the MVACP vision and
encouragement of compact development for the community. Furthermore, The Fields proposes over
2,000 linear feet of Public Trail with connections to existing public trail links as well as access to the
Roaring Fork River section maintained by the U.S. Forest Service. The internal roads and adjacent
sidewalks within the proposed subdivision are designed in a non-linear fashion to avoid an undesirable
‘grid pattern’ and provide access to a pocket park with playground and over 5,400 s.f. of Community
Gardens.
4. Work to enhance a sense of place and identity for development along Highway 82.
The proposed developments adherence to the stated goals, intentions, and regulations for the El Jebel
‘Community Center’ as laid out in the MVACP and associated Affordable Housing and Sustainable
Communities guidelines effectively enhances the sense of identity for the El Jebel ‘Community
Center’ along Hwy 82.
5. Support affordable housing within existing Community Centers.
The Fields will provide 25% of its units as called for in the Affordable Housing Guidelines within the
existing El Jebel ‘Community Center’.
6. Provide an appropriate range of recreational, cultural, economic and social opportunities.
The multi-modal travel connections for vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, etc. increases trail lengths in the
community and completes safe new access to the Roaring Fork River for existing community
members, while also providing new homes within ¾ of a mile to a range of opportunities such as jobs,
mass transit, sewer/water, groceries, restaurants, retail, entertainment, parks, river access, etc.
9|Page
Preserve air quality, water quality, wildlife habitat, and high quality views.
The proposed residential development will not adversely affect the quality of air, water, wildlife, or
views. In fact, studies support that providing homes closer to jobs, recreation, groceries, and
recreation such as a ‘Community Center’ like El Jebel reduces the impacts of vehicular travel on all of
the aforementioned aspects throughout the Valley. An additional public benefit of provision of homes
in the location and density proposed by The Fields is that it will accommodate growth of the region
within an existing ‘Community Center’ and alleviate the quality views from being diminished by
urban sprawl if growth is forced to build outward from the ‘Community Center’ when only low
density development is approved. The Home Owners Association Covenants will encourage
renewable and passive energy features.
8. Protect rivers, streams, lakes, historic irrigation delivery systems and associated aquatic and
riparian ecosystems.
There are no waterways located on the proposed site and all irrigation and drainage will be engineered
to maintain the delivery system’s integrity.
9. Preserve historic structures and other elements of local history, including mature trees.
A large portion of the stand of trees near the proposed entry will be undisturbed, although some less
distinctive foliage must be removed for intersection safety and fall hazards. There are no historical
structures on the site, although the semi-buried cellar in the northeast corner of the site is being
considered to remain for use associated with the proposed community gardens if deemed safe upon
further inspection.
10. Preserve agricultural land uses and rural character, and encourage local crop and food
production.
14.6% of the site is proposed as Open Space, Pocket Park, or Community Gardens. Over 5,400 s.f. of
Community Garden beds are proposed within a pocket park and an additional 2,400 s.f of semi-buried
cellar shall be provided to encourage local food production. The Mid Valley Area Community Plan
gave great consideration to the preservation of agricultural land use in the area and deemed this
property to be best suited for residential development at a density of 3-7 units per acre to capture
density growth near the ‘Community Centers’ and preserve agricultural land elsewhere. The Fields is
consistent with the development designation of the MVACP. Furthermore, the alternatives that were
considered which might allow some of the existing open area to remain, were found to come at the
cost of conflicting with other important MVACP planning objectives, including the provision of
diverse housing types and price points in the overall El Jebel ‘Community Center’, and the
encouragement of development density near the infrastructure of existing ‘Community Centers’.
11. Support alternative energy production where appropriate, and encourage energy and resource
efficient designs and building materials.
The Fields Home Owners Association Covenants will encourage the renewable and passive energy
features of all new homes and require them to adhere with the strict regulations of the Eagle County
building code which requires or incentivizes efficient designs and materials.
12. Promote public safety, health and welfare, consistent with Eagle County Land Use Regulations.
The prosed development promotes public safety, health, and welfare throughout its design by
providing safe road systems built in a curvilinear manner to reduce speed, multi-modal transportation
options, community garden opportunities, proximity to infrastructure, mass transit, and logistical
needs, and finally, by adhering to the land use and engineering standards required by Eagle County
and the State of Colorado.

B. Vision Statement - Chapter 3 Highway 82 Corridor Character Area:
1. “A reasonable range of housing types and price points is available, and locals live in close proximity
to both urban amenities and expansive open spaces with great views.
The Fields proposes (4) different price points, (3) different housing sizes, and (2) different housing
types and is targeted at meeting the housing needs of the full-time resident population of the Valley
2. “Road intersections along Highway 82 are appropriately spaced and well designed, serving “hubs” of
commercial and retail services as well as clusters of urban and suburban type residential
neighborhoods.”
The proposed addition of a signal at the intersection at Valley Road and Hwy 82 meets this vision
10 | P a g e
3.
using updated traffic assessment data and will relieve a portion of the existing issue at the El Jebel
Road intersection with Hwy 82.
“Crown Mountain Park provides sport fields and other active recreational facilities, as well as a
direct connection to the Roaring Fork River corridor, which borders the character area to the
southwest.”
The Fields proposal will be a public benefit regarding the overall planning and vision for the El Jebel
‘Community Center’ by providing housing opportunity at recommended densities within ¼ mile of
the Crown Mountain Park and the Roaring Fork River access point.
C. Goals & Policies:
1. Land Use:
“Goal 1.1 The type and distribution of land uses in the Highway 82 Character Area
meet community needs, reflect community desires, and demonstrate
effective multi agency collaboration.”
“Policy 1.1.1 Work collaboratively with affected agencies and stakeholders to provide an appropriate
overall mix of land uses in the area.
The Applicant has reached out to numerous entities including, but not limited to, emergency services,
school districts, and public land management entities to discuss what need they may have regarding
housing in the area. Although not all of the entities chose to comment on the matter, those who did
overwhelmingly agreed that our mix of duplex and single-family homes ranging in sizes from 1,1002,400 s.f. covered the spectrum of housing needed by their employees and associates. These public
sector entities also expressed great enthusiasm for for the roughly 24 homes provided by The Fields
that would be affordable housing. Further community outreach recognized an overall demand for
market driven housing opportunities for ‘every day’ citizens who work in, or otherwise enjoy the
Valley. The desire and need expressed during our community outreach was further confirmed by the
many letters to the editor and social media forums in which citizens express the need for housing
opportunities like those proposed by The Fields.
“Policy 1.1.2.b Provide opportunities for higher density residential uses in close proximity to
commercial service areas and transit hubs.”
The proposed subdivision has a density of 5 units per acre which fits within the MVACP designation
of 3-7 units per acre. The site is located within the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ and has multi-modal
access to mass transit, groceries, entertainment, restaurant, retail, jobs, and recreation.
“Policy 1.1.2.c Ensure an adequate number of affordable workforce units in the area.”
The Fields subdivision proposes to meet the affordable housing guidelines by dedicating 24 units (or
25%) as affordable workforce housing units. The Applicant’s potential development of these units has
generated great anticipation from the local school districts, emergency service entities, public land
management authorities, and more.
“Policy 1.1.2.e Ensure an appropriate range of housing types and price points in any new Planned
Unit Development.”
Although the proposed subdivision is not a Planned Unit Development, The Fields furthers the intent
of this policy by proposing (4) different price points (including affordable housing), (3) different
housing sizes, and (2) different housing types. The proposal consists of (38) Duplex ‘A’ units
targeting roughly 1,100 s.f., (34) Duplex ‘B’ units targeting 1,800 s.f., and (26) detached SingleFamily homes targeting >2,100 s.f. Price points are relative to the change in home size.
“Policy 1.1.5 Provide appropriate recreational opportunities and facilities
The proposed subdivision’s unique location within the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ is its primary
source for recreational opportunities due to its immediate proximity to Crown Mountain Park and the
Roaring Fork River access, but the proposal also includes more than 2,000 linear feet of public trail
built to Mid Valley Trails Committee standards, over 5,400 s.f. of Community Gardens, and a pocket
park with a neighborhood playground.
“Policy 1.1.9 Adhere to the purposes and intents of the Mid Valley Area Community Plan Future
Land Use Map.”
The Future Land Use Map designation for development on the proposed site is Urban/Suburban
Residential (USSR) and calls for a density range of 3-7 dwelling units per acre. The Fields
subdivision is in the middle of the USSR density range by proposing 5 dwelling units per acre.
11 | P a g e
“Policy 1.2.1.a Encourage compact development, and promote higher densities in community centers
where adequate infrastructure already exists, and where services can be most efficiently provided.
The Fields subdivision provides appropriate density that is compatible with existing surrounding
subdivisions yet still adheres to the intent of the MVACP to promote higher densities within
‘Community Centers’ such as El Jebel. Existing utility infrastructure exists with capacities capable of
receiving the the proposed development:
i. Water and Sewer: The Mid Valley Metro District has issued an “Ability to Serve” letter for both
water and sewer at the proposed density and the Applicant is prepared to submit a 1041 Permit
application with Preliminary plan.
ii. Fire Protection: Fire protection will be provided by the Basalt and Rural Fire Protection District.
The method of Fire Protection will be an on-site water system with new Fire Hydrants with a
looped connection to the existing Water Supply of the Mid Valley Metro District. As the design
progresses, there will be coordination with BRFPD Fire Marshall Bill Harding to ensure any
specific concerns are met. In general, the design will follow BRFPD guidelines in terms of the
following aspects:
 Access Road Design
o Adequate width and surfacing
o 8Two-way access (Main and Emerg.)
o Max cul-de-sac length / turnaround
 Wildfire Requirements
 Fire Flow
o Volume, pressure, and storage
 Fire Hydrants
o Location / spacing / accessibility
 Building Requirements
6.3 AFFORDABLE HOUSING:
The Applicant recognizes the community need for affordable housing and proposes adherence to the Eagle
County Affordable Housing Guidelines amended in 2013 in response to the Eagle County Housing Needs
Assessment Update in 2012. Section 3.01 of the Affordable Housing Guidelines currently states that a mitigation
rate of 25% shall be imposed on any new residential development. The Fields development proposes to employ
the acceptable methods described at the intro to Chapter 4 of the Affordable Housing Guidelines as presented
below.
The Applicant’s intent is to propose a Housing Plan that primarily utilizes Price Capped and Resident Occupied
Housing. The Housing Plans considered include satisfying mitigation by simply providing 25% of the proposed
housing as Price Capped For Sale Housing; or, a combination of Price Capped For Sale Housing and Resident
Occupied Housing. The Applicant understands that Resident Owned housing is only given 0.5x credit toward the
25% Affordable Housing mandate so an example of a combination for consideration is providing 13 Price Capped
units, and 24 Resident Owned units. Development in the Mid Valley Area is complicated and requires open
discussion with Eagle County regarding the feasible provision of Affordable Housing once a level of
predictability is obtained in regards to approved zoning, density, and off-site improvements. Therefore, once
Sketch Plan approval has provided the predictability necessary to know what zoning, density, and off-site
improvements are deemed appropriate for development at this site we can then present a detailed Housing Plan at
Preliminary or Final Plan depicting which methods shall be used and identifying units designated to be deed
restricted for mitigation of affordable housing.
CHAPTER 4 – ACCEPTABLE METHODS OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING MITIGATION
In an effort to provide the flexibility necessary for the development industry, an applicant may comply
with the Guidelines in the following ways, all of which are subject to approval by the BoCC, in its sole
discretion:
1. Price Capped For Sale Housing with a maximum Initial Sales Price set at or below 100% AMI
affordability level will be given full credit.
2. Affordable Rental Housing with a deed restriction requiring rents to be set at or below the 80%
AMI affordability level may be given increased credit if a recent market analysis shows the need
for additional Affordable Rental Housing in the rental project’s location.
3. Resident Occupied For Sale Housing, which includes a 2.0% transfer fee on all sales to nonEligible Households, without regard to AMI, will be given 0.50x credit.
4. A donation of land to ECHDA within a reasonable vicinity of the applicant’s Project will be
given 0.50x credit.
12 | P a g e

8.
Off Site Development will be given 0.50x credit. In cases where the off site location has a higher
Affordability Gap than the development site, full credit may be awarded.
A Payment in Lieu may be made to ECHDA.
An applicant may use Affordable Housing Credits.
Other Public Benefits may be provided to offset some portion of Affordable Housing.
6.4 SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY INDEX:
The Fields subdivision meets and exceeds the intent, goals, and criteria set forth by the Sustainable Community
Index. The purpose of the Sustainable Community Index is described in the Land Use Regulations as follows:
DIVISION 4-10: SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY INDEX (org. 9/17/08)
SECTION 4-1000: PURPOSE
The Sustainable Community Index (SCI) is a development review tool to comprehensively
analyze how new developments contribute toward sustainable community development. The
intent of the SCI is to give staff, developers, and decision makers an indicator as to the level of
sustainability a project includes within it, as well as its contribution to the broader community.
Sustainable Community shall be defined as: a community which fosters economic opportunity and
social capital while protecting and restoring the natural environment upon which people and
economies depend.
The proposed residential development meets and exceeds the intent of the SCI by way of adhering to the Land
Use Regulations and MVACP which have given great consideration to the enhancement and preservation of the
El Jebel ‘Community Center’. While many of the considerations within the SCI Checklist (or Points List) can be
addressed on a site by site basis they must also be applied to the surrounding community center, which has
effectively been promoted within the Eagle County development regulations applicable to the proposed site. The
SCI Checklist (or Points List) below, as provided by Eagle County, was used to assess what Sustainability
considerations are being met by The Fields subdivision. The Applicant’s meetings with Eagle County Planning
Staff identified several items and points availability that were deemed ‘non applicable’ as described in Section 41020 of Article 4: Site Development Standards:
Section 4-1020
Point Scale:
140+ EXCEEDS MINIMUM STANDARDS
70-139 MEETS MINIMUM STANDARDS
0-69 DOES NOT MEET MINIMUM STANDARDS
“…The point scale above assumes a maximum point score of 210, with 70 (meets minimum standards) and 140 (exceeds
minimum standards) representing 33% and 66% thresholds of this maximum number, respectively. For proposals where
certain line items from the SCI which are not applicable to the project, the total maximum points and point thresholds
shall be adjusted and pro-rated accordingly. A non-applicable point or line item is one which is impossible to include
in the project because of its location or existing condition. A point or line item cannot become non-applicable due to a
proposed design or recent actions taken by the applicant.”
Within the SCI Checklist below, the black text in the table below is the standard language in the SCI Checklist.
The Maroon text indicates revision to the points availability per agreement with Eagle County Planning Staff
regarding applicability. The blue text is comment from the Applicant regarding satisfaction of the line item
within the Fields subdivision proposal:

site is located less than a ¼ mile from RFTA stop that exists north of Hwy 82 at the Blue Lake
Subdivision and within ¾ mile of the RFTA stop on the south side of Hwy 82 at the El Jebel Road
intersection. The proposed signalization of the intersection at Valley Road and Hwy 82 and the trail
connection leading to El Jebel Road will provide safe access to RFTA.

WILDLIFE/ECOLOGICAL COMMUNITIES: biological study with DOW compliance DOW has
indicated no major impacts to wildlife. See attached memo from DOW.
RIPARIAN/WETLAND PRESERVATION: 100' setback and water quality testing [Originally 1-3
points available, but 2pts deemed N/A]
AGRICULTURAL LAND PRESERVATION: Doesn't remove historic/potential agricultural land In
order to comply with the Mid Valley Area Community Plan and the preservation and enhancement of the
EL Jebel ‘Community Center’ while maintaining diversity of homes in the area, it is not feasible to
preserve the portions of the site sometimes used as pasture.
EXISTING VEGETATION PRESERVATION: <10% existing tree/shrubs impacted The only source of
trees and shrubs on the property occur along Valley Road and the existing driveway. Home sites were
pushed away from the trees so roughly 80% of the trees are expected to be preserved. It is possible that
engineering site lines for the access intersection may require some trees to be removed for safety.

INNOVATION IN DESIGN: Items meeting intent not listed, case by case review
TOTAL [44%] The Categories of ‘Renewable Energy’ and’ Affordable Housing (beyond the 25%
required)’ account for 30 and 20 points possible, or 28%. The economics of being required to provide
25% of units as affordable housing before being able to earn any points for affordable housing within
this index make obtaining any points in this heavily weighted category very challenging. Renewable
Energy is also heavily weighted in this index, but at this early stage of Sketch Plan we cannot accurately
depict how many individual home buyers may choose to use renewable energy systems other than the
passive solar opportunity provided by the developer.
Upon approval of the proposed Sketch Plan for the Fields subdivision and the ensuing finalization of design
engineering, landscape plan, and the HOA CC&R’s it is believed the projects score on the SCI may exceed 50%.
However, the heavy points weighting of affordable housing that is eligible by affordable housing beyond the 25%
required by the Affordable Housing Guidelines makes it very challenging from an economically feasible
standpoint, as does the heavy points weighting of the use of renewable energy which is very difficult to predict
what an individual property owner may choose for their energy needs upon building a home in the Fields
subdivision. The Applicant understands that the heavy weighting of the points in these categories may be
intentional to promote a vision for development in the area, but at this early stage of Sketch Plan the Applicant is
uncertain of its level of participation in the final construction of each home on the project vs. private owners of
purchased lots who will then build their own homes, so points assignment for SCI proved to be challenging in
some categories.

7.0 Traffic Impact Mitigation:
The consideration of feasibility for any development in the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ area must address the
issue of traffic impact, and more specifically, the traffic impact on the intersections of access to State Highway 82
(Hwy 82). The Applicant is very aware of the long standing logistical and fiscal issues surrounding primarily the
intersection of El Jebel Rd / Hwy 82, and its culmination to this point that the next development in the area will be
burdened with addressing the issue. The Applicant’s engineers and planners have had thorough discussion on the
matter with Eagle County Engineering, Eagle County Planning, CDOT, local stakeholders, and interested parties.
We understand the level of involvement various parties choose (or choose not) to participate in resolving the
matter as well as the budgeting time frames for such participation. The Fields Development Group proposes a
fair, safe, and financially equitable solution that can be implemented in a timely manner providing relief to the
current traffic issue at El Jebel; and we believe the proposed solution can be implemented without the need for
immediate out-of-pocket cost sharing from the County or other entities. However, as explained below, the
process to implement the proposed solution will require the support and cooperation of Eagle County.
In addition to meeting with governing entities, the Applicant and its engineering team at SGM, Inc. studied
CDOT’s Access Control Plan (ACP) from 2002 for the Hwy 82 corridor, reviewed several traffic studies
performed in recent years (on behalf of CDOT, Eagle County, or other interested parties), and submitted a Level 3
Traffic Analysis Methodology Proposal to CDOT in April of this year (2015) that included new traffic counts.
Review of recent traffic studies in addition to traffic counts performed this year by qualified traffic engineers on
behalf of the Applicant have provided insight on the differences between the traffic levels forecasted by the ACP
back in 2002 and the actual traffic (and their sources) impacting the intersections today. Upon completing the
preliminary study it became evident that the intersection at El Jebel Rd / Hwy 82 was not the only intersection in
the area whose actual traffic impact was different from the 2002 ACP forecasts, and furthermore, there were
identifiable relationships between the effectiveness of one intersection on another. The primary example of such
relationships is between the intersection of El Jebel Rd / Hwy 82 and the intersection to the west of Valley Rd.
(and/or JW Rd) / Hwy 82. With this updated data set and fresh perspective on how to approach the traffic issues
that are stifling economic development and hindering the availability of housing opportunities for residents in the
area, the Applicant presented two mitigation measures:
Limit the access movements of vehicles exiting the Fields subdivision so that a ‘right turn only’ is
available, thereby directing all traffic exiting the subdivision to the intersection of Valley Rd. (and/or JW
Rd) / Hwy 82.
2. Install a new signal at the intersection of Valley Rd. (and/or JW Rd) / Hwy 82.
1.
Upon presenting the concept of installing a signal at JW Drive and Hwy 82 to equitably relieve the El Jebel
intersection and improve existing traffic conditions in the area now and into the future, the Eagle County
Engineering office requested the applicant perform a complete Traffic Impact Analysis to assess its feasibility.
The traffic study was completed in August 2015 and documents the existing and 20-year projections as well as the
operational conditions that the Hwy 82 corridor is anticipated to experience. In an effort to reduce the volume of
site-generated traffic using the El Jebel signal, this study considers a new traffic signal at Hwy 82/JW Drive that
is intended to serve as the development’s primary access point to the regional highway system. The study
demonstrates that a traffic signal here will improve operations at this intersection, while also providing relief to
the operations at the highly congested intersection of Hwy 82/El Jebel Road during certain times of the day.
Support for the proposed signal beyond capacity and operations considerations include a known history of
requests for a signal from neighbors and other users (i.e. school district, surrounding property owners and
stakeholders), existing infrastructure of conduit and pull boxes to facilitate signalization that was previously
installed by CDOT at the request or approval of Eagle County Engineering, and several MUTCD warrants being
satisfied. It should be noted that the study was conducted in a “worst case scenario” approach with no reductions
taken for trips made by transit, bicycle or other modal choices available to the residents ,which if considered,
would yield added favorable support for the proposed signalization.
In summary, the extensive professional data assessment and resulting justification for a signal at JW Drive shows
that it will provide relief to existing congestion at the El Jebel intersection, accommodates future growth, and
create another local access route from surrounding neighborhoods which allows redundancy and accessible
alternative routes in the event of excessive mainline delays without hindering the travel corridor functionality.
16 | P a g e
7.1 BENEFITS OF MITIGATION
The primary benefits to the proposed traffic mitigation of the installation of a signal at Valley Rd. (and/or JW Rd)
/ Hwy 82 and the three-quarter movement intersection at the subdivision entrance to Valley Rd., include but are
not limited to:
Benefit A:
A three-quarter movement intersection will prevent additional traffic from the proposed development to
the south side of the intersection at EL Jebel Rd / Hwy 82, while still providing housing opportunities and
amenities that enhance and preserve the El Jebel ‘Community Center’. Incorporated into the design of
The Fields subdivision where it accesses Valley Road is a limited movement intersection to restrict the
ability of a vehicle leaving the subdivision from turning left (east) and traveling toward the El Jebel Rd /
Hwy 82 intersection, and instead, allows only a right turn (west) onto Valley Road to the nearby Valley
Rd / Hwy 82 intersection. The proposed three-quarter movement intersection will not affect through
traffic or the existing use of Valley Rd. The improvements will allow drivers to enter the subdivision
from both eastbound and westbound Valley Rd and will only restrict the exit from the subdivision to be
right turn only. The three-quarter movement intersection simultaneously acts as a grand entry feature that
will be landscaped with vegetation, boulders, and grading designed to physically prohibit traffic from
illegally forcing a left turn by jumping curbs or cutting across the entry feature area. See below for a
conceptual layout of the restricted intersection.
Residents and visitors to The Fields subdivision will not suffer hindered access or longer routes of travel
to the El Jebel ‘Community Center’ or it’s amenities as a result of the proposed three-quarter movement
intersection at the entrance of the subdivision. Travel times were studied for driving both routes from the
proposed location of the subdivision entrance to the intersection of EL Jebel Rd / Hwy 82. The studies
showed that when driving within the legal speed limit of each road and incurring average delay at the
intersection, travel time was as follows:
 130 seconds to exit right (west) out of the proposed subdivision along Valley Road and then turn
right (east) onto Hwy 82 at the intersection and remain on Hwy 82 until reaching the signal at El
Jebel Road.
 125 seconds to travel left (east) out of the proposed subdivision onto Valley Road until reaching
the stop sign at the intersection with El Jebel Rd just south of the intersection with Hwy 82.
The study shows it is virtually the same travel time (within 5 seconds) for either route.
17 | P a g e
Benefit B:
The Fields subdivision will provide relief of the existing pre-development traffic impacting both the north
and south sides of the intersection at El Jebel Rd / Hwy 82, thus prolonging the life of acceptable
intersection operations. Traffic using the north side of SH 82 at El Jebel is generated by four primary
areas: Missouri Heights subdivisions, Blue Lakes subdivisions, the Crawford property subdivisions, and
the businesses along SH 82 and El Jebel Road. Blue Lake has approximately 400 units and our peak hour
counts at JW/El Jebel Road will show how many right turns are made in the morning peak (and left turns
in the afternoon peak) at this intersection to better isolate Blue Lakes traffic currently using the El Jebel
signal. Removing the majority of traffic from one of these four generators from the intersection will
indeed help relieve the traffic issue. Additionally, there are several small subdivisions along Valley Road
across from Crown Mountain Park that would benefit from a signal at JW drive. Many of these residents
now use the signal at El Jebel to drive toward Carbondale and would likely use a signal at JW if it were
available.
Existing Traffic Scenario:
Proposed Traffic Relief:
18 | P a g e
Benefit C:
An immediate ‘way of life’ benefit will be felt by the community as a result of timely construction of an
equitable solution to simultaneously relieve existing traffic concerns and provide future capacity. The
improvements will relieve the El Jebel intersection from portions of the traffic generated by existing
sources. Additionally, the approval of the proposed traffic mitigation plan will relieve the “choke point”
that is currently stifling appropriate development in the area and provide opportunities including the
provision of reasonable housing for new valley residents, or existing workers who may currently reside
down valley, to live in the same area they work and play in. The positive economic impact of appropriate
development on the area’s businesses is invaluable.
Benefit D:
The local governing bodies will see benefits to both financial and community planning considerations
such as:
 Prolonging the life of acceptable intersection operations at an intersection already in great
demand for relief but without funding to do so.
 Accommodation of anticipated growth of the region into the future that addresses the
shortcomings of the ACP forecasts from nearly 15 years ago.
 The Fields subdivision proposal will generate $384,844 in Traffic Impact Fees to be used in the
Roaring Fork Benefit District identified on Exhibit D of Article 4, Section 7 in the ECLUR. The
Applicant is willing to engage in discussions concerning options to fund the improvements for
construction at the early stages of the project rather than waiting until the Traffic Impact Fees are
collected at Building Permit of each unit over time.
 Limited traffic on eastbound Valley Road will increase considerations of health, safety, and
welfare for the Crown Mountain Park visitors and the high level of pedestrians in the area along
Valley Road utilizing the concentration of trails, open space, and river access in the area.
Traffic data collected thus far shows the magnitude of relief to the El Jebel / Hwy 82 intersection upon the
installation of the proposed signal may be significant enough to not warrant the proposed three-quarter movement
intersection at the entrance/exit of the subdivision. Should ongoing assessment and engineering show the threequarter movement intersection is not appropriate, the Applicant will provide an appropriate alternative
intersection for review by Eagle County during Preliminary Plan using accepted engineering design standards
based on health, safety, and welfare.
The Applicant acknowledges this proposal does not, by itself, resolve all the issues at the intersection of El Jebel /
Hwy 82, but it does provide a fair and equitable contribution on behalf of the development relative to the small
proportion of traffic impact the proposed development produces on surrounding intersections, and will provide
nearly $390,000 in Road Impact Fees to the County.
This proposal represents an equitable solution based on a fresh look at updated traffic data to simultaneously
relieve existing conditions and plan for the future. The implementation of these improvements would satisfy
future needs and is a significant advancement to address the traffic woes in El Jebel and the effects it has on
economic development of the region. The traffic data supports the engineer’s report that the actual traffic
experienced today is different than the forecasts made by the CDOT Access Control Plan (ACP) nearly 15 years
ago, resulting in a signal being warranted at the intersection Valley Rd. (and JW Rd) / Hwy 82. However, if it is
deemed to be agreeable by community planners and area stakeholders the process of approval will include an
amendment to the CDOT Access Control Plan (ACP) that was done in 2002. The Applicant intends to facilitate
the amendment process. Dan Roussin (CDOT Region 3 - Access/Utility Engineer/Permits Coordinator) has
indicated neither support nor opposition to an amendment process if warranted by traffic data, but advised that
support from Eagle County and the local community is paramount to the process. Upon Sketch Plan approval of
the basic concept for the proposed traffic mitigation the Applicant will begin amending the ACP using the
appropriate County and CDOT processes.
19 | P a g e
8.0 Public Benefit Summary:
The Public Benefits of The Fields subdivision primarily fall into the following categories:
a. Satisfy existing and projected community housing needs. By all accounts from individuals, business, and
public sector entities there is great demand for reasonable housing opportunities in the area. Market
studies have been performed supporting this claim, and local media is inundated with letters from the
public discussing the topic. During the community outreach phase of this project there were several
public entities and private land owners who chose to provide letters on the subject of their housing needs
or the hurdles they have encountered to provide solutions in the past. These letters of support for
reasonable housing opportunities can be provided upon request.
b. Enhancing and preserving the El Jebel ‘Community Center’. Community Centers are promoted and
urban sprawl is prevented when appropriate development like The Fields subdivision addresses inevitable
growth and workforce housing needs near existing infrastructure, lifestyle logistics like groceries and
jobs, and amenities such as trails and public spaces.
c. Compliance with the MVACP, ECLUR, and other adopted plans and policies. The Fields follows the
goals and intention of all adopted policies and complies with the Eagle County Land Use Regulations.
d. Traffic Mitigation. The proposal of off-site traffic improvements and on-site traffic control measures
provide relief to traffic issues that are otherwise stalled from being fixed for fiscal reasons, while also
providing new capacity to accommodate future appropriate development as envisioned in the Mid Valley
Area Community Plan.
e. Economic Development. Impact fees, permit fees, and taxes will add to the government revenues.
Increased business generation during construction and afterwards when homes are occupied are a direct
result of approval of The Fields development proposal. Collateral benefits of approval would also include
new jobs to construct the infrastructure and homes, as well as a reduced impact of travel throughout the
Valley by those who work up valley but are forced to live down valley due to the lack of reasonable
housing opportunities.
The Fields subdivision is an appropriate development of a site near existing infrastructure and amenities which is
compatible with the surrounding land uses and complies with all Eagle County development regulations and
policies. The traffic mitigations proposed herein help enhance the El Jebel Community Center by relieving
existing issues that are not otherwise being addressed, and provide additional capacity to accept forecasted growth
into the future.
Thank you for your consideration of this Sketch Plan application of the Fields Subdivision.

Re: Initial Environmental Review
El Jebel, Colorado
Dear Keith:
At your request, Rare Earth Science, LLC (Rare Earth) has completed an initial review of
environmental conditions for The Fields Subdivision (hereafter, “Site”) located west of the
community of El Jebel in Eagle County, Colorado. The Site consists of approximately 19.39
acres (currently in agricultural and residential useage) and is identified by Eagle County Tax
Parcel Number 2391-334-01-003. Please refer to attached Figure 1 also.
This letter provides an initial review of environmental conditions for planning purposes only.
Rare Earth’s analysis relied upon publicly-available information (i.e., aerial photography,
geologic and topographic maps, wildlife and habitat data, etc.) and our knowledge of the
regional setting. However, no reconnaissance was performed at the Site, nor were interviews
conducted with either the landowner or regulatory-agency personnel. The following paragraphs
provide a discussion of the general environmental topics evaluated for the proposed Sitedevelopment project:
1. Site and Regional Setting – The Site is positioned on fairly level ground covered by
irrigated fields and residential development. This region is part of the Aspen Sub-Basin,
which forms the area west of the Sawatch Uplift and is a southern extension of the larger
Eagle Basin. According to the Roaring Fork and Crystal Valleys, an Environmental and
Engineering Geology Study, Eagle, Garfield, Gunnison and Pitkin Counties, Colorado
(Colorado Geological Survey [CGS] Environmental Geology No. 8, 1974), the Site
consists of Quaternary older alluvial deposits (Map Unit Qo). The 1974 CGS study does
not indicate any avalanche or rockfall issues at the Site.

2. Hydrology and Wetlands – No natural perennial watercourses exist at the Site (Figure
1). The northeast corner of the Site is traversed by an irrigation canal diverted from the
Roaring Fork River, and identified by the National Wetland Inventory as PEMCx
(Seasonally Flooded Excavated Palustrine Emergent Wetland [see Figure 2]). Other
irrigation delivery laterals are also present at the Site. Filling these irrigation resources
for the purpose of establishing a residential subdivision may trigger the need for a
Section 404 Clean Water Act permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s December 2007 Flood Insurance Rate
Map (Eagle County, Colorado and Incorporated Areas [www.fema.gov]) shows the Site
mapped as Zone X (i.e., areas determined to be outside of the 0.2-percent annual
chance floodplain). Groundwater quality data, depth, and flow direction information were
not available for the Site; however, the 1974 CGS study indicates that the Site is in an
area where groundwater is found more than 20 feet beneath the ground surface.
3. Wildlife and Habitat – Rare Earth reviewed current Colorado Parks and Wildlife species
range maps for the area. The following ranges are mapped on or near the Site:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Bald eagle winter range (the Roaring Fork River corridor immediately to the south is
winter foraging ground)
Black bear fall concentration area (general Basalt area is mapped as such)
Mountain lion human conflict area
Elk overall range, highway crossing zone
Mule deer summer range
Osprey foraging area (an active nest lies about 0.5 miles to the west on the Roaring
Fork River corridor)
Great blue heron foraging along the Roaring Fork River riparian corridor immediately
south
Development of the Site would not significantly alter an ecological unit or natural
landform feature, or remove significant native vegetation cover. The Site is in irrigated
hay ground and residential useage, and as such does not provide exceptional or
significant habitat for any of the above mentioned species. Development of the Site is
expected to impede any traditional movements of big game through the property,
particularly at the highway crossing. The nearby foraging activities of bald eagle,
osprey, and blue heron may also be disturbed to some degree by increased human
presence and human activity in the area.
4. Hazardous Waste and other Potential Environmental Concerns – The Site is located
in an area of established residential and agricultural properties. Rare Earth searched
the Colorado Division of Oil & Public Safety’s Storage Tank Information System
(COSTIS) online database (www.colorado.gov); the Colorado Division of Reclamation,
Mining and Safety (DRMS) database for active and inactive mines
(www.mining.state.co.us); and the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission
(COGCC) database for oil & gas wells (www.oil-gas.state.co.us/). The Site does not
appear in the COSTIS database for registered fuel storage tanks, leak/spill incidents, or
tank closure and removal programs. There are no permitted, or historic, mining

operations or oil/gas wells at the Site or adjoining lands per the DRMS and COGCC
databases. And, based upon our recent experience with similar projects in the El
Jebel/Emma/Basalt area, there are no documented nearby industrial facilities or
incidents in the surrounding area with the potential to negatively impact the Site with
hazardous waste, leaking fuel tanks, abandoned mine drainage, etc.
This letter provides an initial review of environmental conditions for planning purposes only, and
this information is not intended to be an Environmental Impact Report for purposes of satisfying
Section 4-460 of Eagle County’s Site Development Standards. Additionally, this letter does not
evaluate other possible impacts from actual Site development, including stormwater runoff,
lighting, noise, air quality, transportation, visual/scenic values, etc.
We hope that this information useful in your Site planning and pre-development process.
Please contact me at 970/641-1144 if you require further information.

RE: Wildlife Review 554 Valley RD, El Jebel, CO.
Mr. Ehlers,
I have reviewed the property at 554 Valley Rd, El Jebel for potential wildlife impacts
related to potential development. The property is located between Hwy 82 on the north,
Valley Rd on the south and Summit Vista subdivision to the east.
No known threatened or endangered species inhabit the property. Based on the
location and associated disturbances from surrounding areas wildlife usage of the
property is minimal. Development of this property should have minimal impact on
wildlife populations in the area.
If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at 970-947-2933.

The soil surveys that comprise your AOI were mapped at 1:24,000.
Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale.
Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause
misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil line
placement. The maps do not show the small areas of contrasting
soils that could have been shown at a more detailed scale.
Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map
measurements.
Source of Map: Natural Resources Conservation Service
Web Soil Survey URL: http://websoilsurvey.nrcs.usda.gov
Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857)
Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator
projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts
distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the
Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more accurate
calculations of distance or area are required.
This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as of
the version date(s) listed below.
Soil Survey Area: Aspen-Gypsum Area, Colorado, Parts of Eagle,
Garfield, and Pitkin Counties
Survey Area Data: Version 7, Sep 22, 2014
Mine or Quarry
Miscellaneous Water
Soil map units are labeled (as space allows) for map scales 1:50,000
or larger.

The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were
compiled and digitized probably differs from the background
imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor shifting
of map unit boundaries may be evident.

MEMORANDUM
DATE:

TO:
Kent Harbert, CDOT Region 3 Traffic and Safety
CC:
Keith Ehlers, The Fields
Dan Cokley, SGM
FROM:
Lee Barger
RE:
The Fields Level 3 Traffic Analysis Methodology Proposal
This memo documents the initial assumptions that SGM intends to use for the Level 3 traffic
analysis for “The Fields” proposed development along Valley Road in Eagle County. The size
of the proposed development, consisting of 36 single-family homes and 64 duplex units (55
AM/69 PM trips), would normally require a Level 2 traffic analysis by CDOT Region 3 standards,
but the location of the site dictates a need to provide intersection operational analysis at the two
proposed access points to SH 82. Both access points to Highway 82 have full-length left and
right turn acceleration and deceleration lanes along the highway.
A pre-application meeting was held on April 1, 2015 at CDOT’s Grand Junction office that was
attended by Dan Roussin & Kent Harbert of CDOT; Whit Whitaker, Ryan Ivy, and Keith Ehlers
of the project ownership group; and Dan Cokley and Lee Barger of SGM. The goal of this
memo is to gain CDOT’s acceptance of the data intended for use in the analysis, assumptions
proposed for the analysis (primarily regarding directional distribution assumptions), and the
overall approach to the access permit process for this land use application for Eagle County.
The owners understand that this site will add traffic to the intersection at El Jebel Road and SH
82, which is planned for future improvements when a 20% increase in traffic has been realized.
The RFTA park-n-ride that was opened here in 2012 technically created a 17.6% impact on
East Valley Road, west of Sopris Village Drive, allowing for an additional 2.3% impact from
other developments such as the Fields before improvements will be warranted by CDOT. The
owners understand that this 2.3% threshold may be met depending on the agreed distribution of
site generated traffic, but feel that the development could still be phased in such a way to “buy
time” for the County to acquire the necessary funding to construct the preferred improvement on
the south side of SH 82 (preliminary estimate over $3M).
Although this project may be “the straw that break the camel’s back” from the standpoint of
triggering expensive improvements on the south side of SH 82, the owners intend to present a
reasonable and equitable proposal to the County to provide their fair share of funding for this
future improvement. The owners realize that they cannot solely fund this improvement by
building a development of 100 units, so they intend to request a partnership with the County and
CDOT to assist in funding this important intersection.
Study Intersections
This Level 3 study will provide current and future-year operational analysis of the intersections
of Valley Road/JW Drive/State Highway 82 and Valley Road/El Jebel Road/SH 82. Acceleration
and deceleration lanes exist on all legs of the mainline at these signalized intersections; El Jebel
is signalized, Valley Road/JW Drive is unsignalized. SH 82 is classified as an E-X Expressway
April 15, 2015
Page 2 of 4
through the project area with a posted speed of 55 mph. The intersection of The Fields site
driveway and Valley Road will also be included in the analysis.
Baseline Traffic
SGM collected peak hour volumes at the SH 82/Valley Road/JW Drive intersection on Thursday
4/2/15. Counts were collected from 7-9 AM and from 4-6 PM. Existing traffic counts from the El
Jebel intersection (and the Valley Road/El Jebel intersection) were referenced from the RFTA
“VelociRFTA Bus Rapid Transit, El Jebel Traffic Report Addendum” conducted by HNTB in
2010. These are the same baseline volumes used in the SH 82/El Jebel Road/East Valley
Road intersection improvements analysis that SGM conducted for Eagle County in 2012-2013.
The RFTA report, which references the current access permit for El Jebel Road/SH 82 allowed
for a 17.6% impact to the intersection, thus allowing for an additional 2.3% traffic growth on this
leg before the need for improvements is triggered, based on the local interpretation of the “20%
rule”. The attached figure shows the counts collected recently at JW drive and the counts found
in the RFTA BRT reports.
Analysis Years
Operational analysis of Opening Day traffic (2017) and 20-year traffic will be conducted. All
baseline traffic volumes at all study intersections will be factored by CDOT’s 20-year factor
provided on the OTIS website for this section of SH 82 (Station #103511: 20-year factor of 1.93,
with 3.6% trucks, and 30,000 factored ADT 2013).
With this growth factor applied to today’s volume, the average annual daily traffic forecast in 20
years is 57,900 vehicles per day, a number that is completely unreasonable considering the
availability of land for development, the characteristics of the highway corridor (4-lanes for the
foreseeable future), and the political forces against additional large-scale development in the
upper Roaring Fork valley. The growth rate ranges from 1.15 to 1.42 along other segments of
SH 82 between Basalt and Glenwood, which shows that this 20-year rate may be an error or an
anomaly. It also appears that this segment was last counted by CDOT in 2010, so the 2013
AADT published is a factored volume rather than an actual, observed volume from 2013.
Assuming the factor used derives from the current 1.93 factor, we might be also starting with an
inflated baseline daily volume.
Based on the counts collected last week, between 1,915 – 1,942 vehicles traveled on SH 82 in
the morning peak and between 2,170 – 2,223 vehicles traveled on SH 82 in the afternoon peak.
One would anticipate closer to 3,000 vehicles per hour in both directions during the PM peak,
representing a “K’ factor of 0.10, if the AADT were in fact 30,000 vehicles per day. What this
demonstrates, and has been supported by analysis of the signal at El Jebel in the past, is that
peak hours will tend to ‘stretch out’ or get longer in the future since the 4-lane signalized section
can typically handle between 2,500 – 3,000 vehicles per hour during a weekday peak hour
before reaching capacity. Any operational analysis of future traffic using a 1.93 factor will show
excessive delays in intersection failure unless additional mainline capacity is developed, which
is highly unlikely. CDOT’s input on this growth factor is requested as part of the response to this
methodology proposal.
Specific Development Growth & Land Use Rates
Full buildout of The Fields includes 36 single-family homes and 64 duplex units. Land Use
Code #210, Single-family Detached Housing and Land Use Code #230, Condominium/
Townhome will be used to generate site traffic. Opening day traffic will include a percentage of
buildout that limits the impact at El Jebel Road to a 2% increase over the baseline, while longterm traffic will assess full buildout of The Fields.

SH 82 Project Traffic Distribution
The directional distribution for site traffic was developed through several sources including traffic
counts and interviews conducted with current site residents. The first source was the recent
counts collected at Valley Road/JW Drive/SH 82 which indicated a 35% southbound/65%
northbound distribution on Valley Road during both the AM and PM peaks. These counts also
show a turning movement split of 44%/7%/49% (18%/3%/78%) AM (PM) Left/Thru/Right at the
intersection on the northbound approach (Valley Road) to the highway. The second source
used was the peak hour counts at the intersection of Valley Road and El Jebel Road from
RFTA’s 2010 BRT report. This count indicated a 60% eastbound/40% westbound split on
Valley Road, which reverses to 60% westbound/40% eastbound in the PM peak. At the
intersection with El Jebel Road, the split is 54%/46% (60%/40%) for northbound/southbound
traffic on El Jebel Road. The observed splits tend to support a more equivalent distribution
between eastbound and westbound oriented traffic from The Fields site. Additionally, site traffic
can access the highway at Valley Road/JW, El Jebel, or at Willits. The third routing option is
common among the residents interviewed that currently live on The Fields property. About half
of the current residents interviewed indicated that they often stop by the shopping center on the
way to or from work up-valley. Traffic destined for the El Jebel or Willits intersections technically
cross the highway access line (A-line) at the same point. This is the point where the 17.6%
impact from RFTA’s study was calculated.
The attached figure also shows the length of the eastbound and westbound routes to the
highway from The Fields site. The distance from the site driveway to the intersection of Valley
Road/JW Drive/SH 82 is 0.45 miles, while the distance from the site driveway to the intersection
of Valley Road/El Jebel Road/SH 82 is 0.86 miles. The distance along the highway between
JW Drive and El Jebel Road is approximately one mile. Based on average delays at the
intersection calculated by Synchro (HCM 2010) and a travel speed equivalent to the posted
speed, the eastbound oriented trips destined for SH 82 in the AM peak could travel one of two
routes: accessing SH 82 at Valley Road (Option 1) or at El Jebel Road (Option 2). On the
return trip in the afternoon peak, these motorists could choose either route as well. In fact,
motorists may also continue east on Valley Road to access the shopping center in the morning
or evening on their way to/from work up-valley. Using average delays calculated by HCM and
travel times on specific segments, Option 1 takes approximately 24 seconds longer to clear the
El Jebel signal on eastbound SH 82 than accessing at the El Jebel signal (166 seconds vs. 142
seconds). In the opposite direction during the afternoon peak, Option 1 takes about 25 more
seconds than Option 2 (158 seconds vs. 133 seconds). The average delays for the affected
movements at the two highway intersections are the primary differentiators of travel times on the
two options. Potentially, at times of little delay at the intersections, Option 1 may be shorter
than Option 2. Therefore, it appears that a 50/50 east/west distribution seems like an
appropriate overall directional distribution to assume for the traffic analysis.
With the variety of options to access the highway, commuting motorists will seek out the best
route depending on the time of day they are accessing the highway and the ultimate direction
they intend to go. Taking the distributions beyond the 50/50 eastbound/ westbound split, we will
assume that 5% cross the highway, 40% are oriented to the west on SH 82 (split between JW
and El Jebel), 18% access the highway at JW drive oriented east, 12% access the highway at
El Jebel oriented east, and the remaining 25% are oriented along Valley Road to/from Willits.
The proposed distributions are shown below:

Proposed Directional Distributions
Access Permits
The Fields will file for two state highway access permit applications for this project for access to
SH 82 at JW Drive/Valley Road and at El Jebel Road.
Other Concerns
Potential future signal control at JW Drive. Although not included in the Access Control Plan for
this corridor, a signal at JW drive, if determined necessary, would be able to provide
progression equivalent to what exists today on this section of SH 82. The spacing between El
Jebel and Willits is ½ mile, while the spacing from JW to El Jebel is 1 mile. This signal has
been requested numerous times by residents in recent years, but analysis has shown that it did
not meet warrants for signalization at that time.
The access control plan would require amending for this option to be considered. It is likely that
a traffic signal at JW Drive would create a distribution shift away from the El Jebel intersection
and allow more traffic on the highway at Valley/JW that currently accesses at El Jebel during the
peak hours. This solution could prove to be less expensive and more easily constructed in a
shorter time-frame than the ultimate improvements for the south side of the intersection required
at El Jebel Road and should be considered an optional improvement scenario by CDOT and
Eagle County. To consider this scenario in the analysis, a reasonable distribution shift (from the
El Jebel signal to JW) will need to be developed by SGM and verified by CDOT prior to analysis.
Schedule
The report and permit application will be submitted top CDOT by May 15.

THE FIELDS TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The traffic study for The Fields proposed development in Eagle County documents the existing
and 20-year projections and the operational conditions that the SH 82 corridor is anticipated to
experience. In an effort to reduce the volume of site-generated traffic using the El Jebel signal,
this study considers a new traffic signal at SH 82/JW Drive that is intended to serve as the
development’s primary access point to the regional highway system. The study demonstrates
that a traffic signal here will improve operations at this intersection, while also providing relief to
the operations at the highly congested intersection of SH 82/El Jebel Road during certain times
of the day.
Based on nationally accepted rates and equations for estimating project-specific traffic, The
Fields will generate a maximum of 787 daily trips from a mix of 26 single-family homes and 72
duplex units. The site is expected to generate up to 68 trips in the morning peak hour and 76
trips in the afternoon peak hour upon buildout. This is a worst-case estimate, with no reductions
taken for trips made by transit, bicycle or other modal choices available to the residents.
The intersection of SH 82/El Jebel Road currently operates at LOS “D” during both peak hours
and is expected to operate at LOS “E” in the 20-year time period with or without the Fields traffic
demand. With a traffic signal in place at SH 82/JW Drive and assuming a 50% distribution of
Blue Lake commuters from the El Jebel signal to the JW Drive, the El Jebel intersection will
operate with about 10 seconds less delay overall in the morning peak. In the PM peak, the
overall delay at the signal at El Jebel is about the same under either condition. The proposed
signal provides better access for vehicles on both sides of the highway, allowing the intersection
to operate at LOS “B” under baseline conditions or LOS “C” under future baseline conditions.
The redundancy that this signal provides to the local street system will allow more direct trip
making from the local neighborhoods to the regional arterial system.
Beyond capacity and operations, additional measures that would support a traffic signal at JW
Drive include two of the MUTCD warrants being met currently (four-hour and peak hour
volumes) and two others that could be met provided more data (crash experience and roadway
network). Also, there is a known history of requests for a signal from neighbors in the area and
CDOT installed infrastructure (conduit and pull boxes) to simplify signalization if and when this
may occur. CDOT may have signalized this intersection when the turn lanes were built if they
had the funding at the time.
Additional traffic signals on the SH 82 corridor may not be desirable from many perspectives,
but given the current climate that a six-lane SH 82 corridor is politically and financially
unattainable, they make sense given the proper location. The one mile spacing between SH
82JW Drive and SH 82/El Jebel meets the required minimum distance for signal spacing
defined in the Code. A highway bandwidth of 41% - 47% can be achieved for peak directional
flows if a signal were installed here, under future buildout conditions. The sight distance for the
highway approaches and the side street approaches to the proposed signal is more than
adequate.
A signal at JW Drive creates another local access route from neighborhoods on the north and
south sides of the highway, which allows redundancy and accessible alternative routes in the
event of excessive mainline delays. Turn lanes in place at the SH 82/JW Drive intersection
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page ES‐1 meet current standards for forecast demand based on 45 mph, but not the posted 55 mph. It is
recommended that if a signal were installed at JW Drive, the approach posted speed limits to
the signal would be reduced to 45 mph, similarly to how other signals in the corridor are posted.
In addition to a traffic signal at SH 82/JW Drive, an improvement that may help extend the
acceptable limits of corridor operations includes an interconnection of the traffic signals from JW
Drive to Two Rivers Road (lower) in Basalt. This approximate three-mile section currently has
four traffic signals and overall operations could be improved if they operated in coordination with
each other. Interconnection of signals is especially important as the mainline volumes approach
saturation, as they do at times today during the summer months.
The intersection of the site driveway and Valley Road was assumed to be a right-in, right-out,
left-in (three-quarter movement) configuration, which sends all traffic leaving the site to the SH
82/JW intersection. This intersection will operate acceptably with little to no delay for traffic
accessing the development. The approaches to the SH 82/JW Drive intersection could be
improved in the future to provide more capacity for traffic on these approaches to the proposed
signal, but the single-lane approaches will serve project and background traffic adequately as
built today.
With future intersection operations forecast to be LOS “E” at SH 82/El Jebel Road and heavy
commuter peak hours that will grow in duration in the future with or without this project,
alternative means to reduce traffic will continue to be necessary. RFTA ridership increases, car
and van pool usage, pedestrian and bicycle trip-making, and shifting of commuter times will all
be employed to reduce the peak hour traffic demand in the future, given that a six-lane SH 82
corridor is not feasible.

Introduction
This study is prepared as a CDOT Level Three Traffic Impact Study for “The Fields” proposed
housing development located in the Roaring Fork Valley of unincorporated Eagle County,
Colorado. The purpose of this traffic analysis is to document the existing traffic conditions in the
vicinity of the site, analyze the trip generation and trip distribution of the proposed development,
estimate traffic volumes to the 20-year planning horizon, determine the need and
appropriateness for a traffic signal at the intersection of State Highway 82 (SH 82) and JW
Drive, and discuss any other mitigation measures that may reduce the site’s impact on the
adjacent infrastructure. The property is located adjacent to SH 82 and Valley Road and is
shown in the vicinity map below.

The Fields Proposed Development 2.0
Project Description
The Fields is a proposed residential development slated to contain a mix of single-family
housing including detached units and duplex units. The proposal includes 26 single-family units
and 72 duplex units situated around a looping road system with a single access point at Valley
Road. The site plan is shown on Figure 2.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 1 Figure 2
SITE PLAN
The site plan includes a trail along the north side of the property (abutting SH 82) that will
connect to the existing trail through the Summit Vista and Valley View neighborhoods to the
east of The Fields. This will provide a complete trail link from the property to Crown Mountain
Park, with connectivity to the RFTA station and the commercial areas in Willits. A north-south
connection from this trail to Valley Road will run through the property accessing the community
gardens and small pocket park that are a part of the plan. The site plan above shows a
proposed three-quarter movement access (right-in, right-out, left-in) at Valley Road which will be
addressed in detail later in this traffic study.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 2 3.0
Methodology and Assumptions
This traffic analysis has been prepared in accordance with section 2.3(5) of the State Highway
Access Code (Code) and the assumptions have been vetted with the CDOT access manager
and engineer for Region 3. The assumptions and methodology will provide a conservative
analysis for the purposes of assessing traffic impacts resulting from buildout of The Fields.
SGM’s “methodology proposal” memo and the response from CDOT are contained in the
appendix.
Intersection analysis was performed using the Synchro/Simtraffic 8 analysis package to
estimate the capacity of the signalized intersections along SH 82. The measures of
effectiveness that are compared for this study include Level of Service (LOS) and delay. The
estimated 95th percentile queue lengths will be reported for the future buildout analysis to
determine if the current lanes are adequately sized or need extensions in the future. For the
signalized intersection analysis, the highway signal timing bandwidth will be reported to ensure
it meets the corridor standards set forth in the Code. All signalized analyses contained in this
report are consistent with Highway Capacity Manual 2010 (HCM 2010) calculations and
methodology. Synchro does not model acceleration lanes very well, so it could be assumed
that the unsignalized approaches of SH 82/JW Drive may operate slightly better than shown,
since the side street traffic has acceleration lanes in all directions to accelerate and merge with
mainline traffic. Drivers making left turns do not necessarily need both directions to be clear
before turning; however, some drivers are not comfortable using the acceleration lanes as a
result of the high speeds that exist on the mainline.
The unsignalized intersections in the project area were analyzed using HCM 2010 methodology
with the exception of the El Jebel Rd/Valley Road intersection, which functions as a two-way
stop. This intersection’s layout is unconventional, from an analysis perspective, with the
uncontrolled approach being the El Jebel leg that connects to the highway. This layout is similar
to what is found in ring roads around malls where entering traffic has priority so as not to create
queuing backups onto the adjacent arterial. As such, a delay could not be calculated for the
stop-controlled approaches under HCM 2010 methodology, but could under HCM 2000
methodology. All Synchro/Simtraffic output is contained in the appendix for reference.
Peak hour factors, heavy vehicle percentages, and other inputs were developed based on
existing traffic counts taken in April and May 2015. CDOT considers 150 seconds the maximum
cycle length allowable on SH 82, with a maximum of 120 seconds provided to the eastbound
and westbound signal timing in the future.
Some of the assumptions that have been made to estimate future traffic conditions and project
distributions may be influenced by many factors as buildout occurs. These assumptions
include:
•
•
•
50%/50% East-West distribution of site traffic
20-year factor of 1.38 west of El Jebel, 1.34 east of El Jebel applied to baseline traffic
A 50% redistribution of Blue Lake residential traffic from the El Jebel intersection to the
JW Drive intersection as a result of signalizing this intersection
The final bullet has not been vetted by CDOT, but is a reasonable estimate based on number
and proximity of units to the JW Drive intersection within the approximate 400-unit Blue Lake
neighborhood. No diversions of commuter traffic or trips were made on the south side of the
highway; however, these trips could also experience a “delay reduction” in route choice as a
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 3 result of a signal in place at JW Drive. In practice, commuters will be drawn to a route that
affords less delay, so there may actually be a larger shift than what is predicted, based on the
current state of operations at the El Jebel signal. It is likely that provided more appropriately
spaced and well-coordinated signals along the corridor in this growing area, some relief may be
given to those signals currently serving the corridor with congested minor approaches during the
peak hours. Additional basis for use of the 50% Blue Lake redistribution is discussed in Section
4.6.
For the purposes of this analysis and to address the potential needs for a signal at JW Drive,
this study analyzes several growth and geometric scenarios including a baseline scenario
(Scenario 1), a baseline diverted scenario (Scenario 2), a future baseline scenario (Scenario 3),
a future baseline diverted scenario (Scenario 4), a future baseline plus project scenario
(Scenario 5), and a future baseline diverted plus project scenario (Scenario 6). The “diverted”
scenarios reflect the 50% redistribution of Blue Lake traffic that might result from an additional
signalized access to the highway at JW Drive for these residents. The non-diverted scenarios
reflect existing signalization conditions along the corridor.
To provide a conservative analysis of site traffic impacts, no reductions of site traffic were
assumed for multi-modal trips made by residents of the Fields. Residents may decide to make
pedestrian, bicycle, carpool, transit, or other trips rather than using their personal car, which
should lessen the overall impact of the site when compared to the final results of this analysis.
Additionally, the existing volumes that were collected at the project intersections in April and
May of this year have been seasonally adjusted by factors found on CDOT’s OTIS website.
This develops analysis time periods that reflect the historically busiest month of the year (July)
in the Roaring Fork Valley. Traffic reductions for multi-modal users are most common during
the summer months when the weather is fair and ambient highway traffic volumes are highest,
as is evident by the full bike racks common at most BRT stations among the valley. Historically,
RFTA ridership peaks in the summer and winter months.
Eagle County plans to construct improvements on the north side of the El Jebel Road/ SH 82
intersection, likely to occur in 2016. These improvements to the southbound approach to the
signal at SH 82 were included in the baseline analysis. Specifically, the southbound approach
to the signal will be improved to add a free-right turn lane, in addition to the through lane, and
two exclusive left turn lanes that currently exist. This improvement and realignment of the north
approach will allow the signal to operate on a conventional protected/permissive signal cycle
rather than the split-phased operations currently employed today. Accesses along El Jebel
Road north of the highway will be restricted to right-in, right-out maneuvers by a raised median
extending from the highway to a new roundabout at Shadowrock Drive (located slightly north of
its current intersection). This roundabout will assist in providing access to the businesses
adjacent to SH 82 and El Jebel Road once the median is constructed.
The State Highway 82 corridor through Eagle County is governed by an Access Control Plan
(ACP) that was developed by LSC, CDOT and Eagle County and approved in 2002. The ACP
concludes that the intersection of JW Drive and SH 82 shall not be signalized due to low traffic
volumes. On page 34 the ACP states:
“This intersection barely meets signal warrants in 2020. If this
intersection were to be signalized, it might encourage some of the
motorists to use it rather than the El Jebel intersection. The Access
Control Plan shall not cause more traffic to use either JW Drive or
Valley Road.”
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 4 The ACP further recommends a pedestrian overpass or underpass to access proposed bus
stops on either side of the intersection. Currently, RFTA’s “Valley Local Route” turns to and
from the highway at JW drive providing service to Blue Lake, while BRT access remains on SH
82 with stops nearby at El Jebel and Willits. The recently improved BRT stations at El Jebel
Road and Willits both provide this grade separation for pedestrian access across the highway
and have become the main point of access for the BRT and other valley transit routes for
residents in the mid-valley area. RFTA would require any new signal along the corridor to be
equipped with the Transit Signal Priority pre-emption system that exists at other signals along
the SH 82.
If it is demonstrated to be warranted and deemed a valid recommendation, a proposed traffic
signal at JW Drive will require amending the Access Control Plan, which will require approval
from CDOT and Eagle County.
Existing Traffic Conditions (2015)
Existing traffic data for this study was collected by SGM in April and May 2015 using Miovision
video collection, radar, and pneumatic tube counters. Traffic data from CDOT’s OTIS website
was also consulted to determine the existing AADT on SH 82 in the project area. Based on
CDOT’s data, this section of SH 82 carries approximately 20,000 vehicles per day including
3.6% trucks. Existing data collected is contained in the appendix.
4.1.
Study Area
The project study area includes the intersections along SH 82 at JW Drive and at El Jebel Road.
The intersections of El Jebel Road/Valley Road and El Jebel Road/JW Drive were also included
in the study area and the analysis. The study area is shown below:
Figure 3

Eagle/Garfield County Line JW Drive
El Jebel Road
State Highway 82 Frontage Road The Fields Proposed Development Shadowrock Drive
Valley Road
Sopris Village Drive East Valley Road Willits Lane The red stars in Figure 3 indicate the location of the four intersections studied. The El Jebel
Road/Valley Road intersection is located 175 feet south of the SH 82/El Jebel Road signalized
intersection, so this intersection’s operations may be influenced by the signal (or the signal may
be influenced by this intersection); thus, this intersection is included in the analysis. The
intersection of Valley Road and the Frontage Road (south of SH 82/JW Drive) was not included
in this analysis but could also be influenced by future signal operations at SH 82/JW Drive due
to its close proximity to the mainline (125 feet).
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 6 The SH 82/JW Drive intersection was improved in summer 2013 to include left and right turn
deceleration lanes (400’ – 500’ in length), and left and right turn acceleration lanes (450’ – 800’
in length) on all approaches with median barrier separating mainline flow. Prior to repaving the
highway, conduit and pull boxes were also installed by CDOT, as future preparation for a traffic
signal at this intersection if it is determined warranted and appropriate.
4.2.
Local Circulation Network
The primary roadways in the study area that connect the main intersections on SH 82 provide
neighborhood collector access while also providing connectivity and redundancy to the local
arterial highway. These roads, including Shadowrock, Valley/E. Valley and JW Drive serve as
local relievers when there is excessive delay or saturated conditions on the mainline. Similar to
modal shifts residents make during peak season conditions, local commuters also route their
trips around the known congestion points or time their trips to occur earlier or later in the day.
The shift of local traffic to these relievers resulting from mainline congestion during busy peaks
is not reflected in the traffic volumes developed for this study (since they were collected in
April/May and fewer “delay-induced” diversions were occurring).
The primary roads in the study area include:
State Highway 82 is the primary arterial that serves the Roaring Fork Valley. It is classified as
an Expressway by CDOT’s State Highway Category Assignment Schedule and has a posted
speed between 55 mph and 65 mph within the project area. The intersection at JW Drive has a
posted speed of 65 mph through the intersection, while the intersection at El Jebel Road is
posted at 55 mph. The major intersections along the corridor have fully developed acceleration
and deceleration lanes. There are no existing or proposed access points along the highway
within 1,750 feet of JW Drive. The only access west of JW Drive within a half-mile is Dakota
Drive, which is about 0.35 miles west. East of JW, a private access to property north of the
highway exists at 0.35 miles.
Valley Road is a two-lane collector roadway classified by Eagle County as a Suburban
Residential Collector in Appendix C of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations. The travel
width includes two 11’ travel lanes and a one foot paved shoulder. The posted speed along
Valley Road is 25 mph. Valley Road begins as the south leg of the JW Drive intersection with
SH 82 and extends about 1.25 miles to the intersection with El Jebel Road. From this point
east, the road is known as East Valley Road, intersecting with the Willits roundabout further
south. The Fields access point is located 0.45 miles from the JW intersection and 0.85 miles
from the El Jebel intersection via Valley Road.
El Jebel Road is a two-lane collector roadway classified by Eagle County as a Rural Major
Collector in Appendix C of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations. The travel width varies
from SH 82 to JW Drive, but generally contains 33 feet of pavement with two through lanes and
a center turn lane. The posted speed along El Jebel Road is 30 mph. El Jebel Road extends
north along the valley floor from the Valley Road/East Valley Road intersection to where Upper
Cattle Creek Road begins, providing access to Missouri Heights, about a quarter mile north of
JW Drive.
JW Drive is a two-lane collector roadway classified by Eagle County as a Suburban Residential
Collector in Appendix C of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations. The travel width includes
two 11’ travel lanes and a one foot paved shoulder. The posted speed along JW Drive is 30
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 7 mph. JW begins on the west at the intersection with SH 82, providing access to the Blue Lake
neighborhood. JW Drive extends about 1.25 miles to the intersection with El Jebel Road.
Shadowrock Drive is a two-lane collector roadway not found in the classification listing
provided by Eagle County in Appendix C of the Eagle County Land Use Regulations. The travel
width includes two 11’ travel lanes and a one foot paved shoulder. The posted speed along
Shadowrock Drive is 25 mph. Shadowrock begins at El Jebel Road (constructed as a
roundabout as early as 2016) and extends east and south to the Willits Lane signal on SH 82
via Tree Farm Drive. The distance from El Jebel Road to the Willits signal via Shadowrock/Tree
Farm is approximately 0.60 miles.
4.3.
Baseline Traffic Volumes
Peak hour turning movement counts were collected at the intersection of SH 82 and JW Drive
on April 2, 2015, and they were collected at the intersection of SH 82 and El Jebel Road on May
13, 2015. Turning movement counts were also collected at the El Jebel Road/Valley Road
intersection (south of the highway) and at the El Jebel Road/JW Drive intersection north of the
highway in May.
Several 24-hour traffic counts were collected in the project area mid-week in May including:
• Valley Road, west of Eagle County Building/Crown Mountain Park
• Frontage Road, west of Valley Road
• JW Drive (West), north of SH 82
• JW Drive (East), east of Coyote Circle (just east of Blue Lake)
Figure 4 and subsequent traffic volume figures are provided at the end of this report for
reference. Figure 4 presents a lot of information including: the existing traffic data showing AM
and PM turning movements at the intersections, pedestrian movements, intersection laneage
and control, intersection peak hour totals, average 24-hour volumes, and peak hour approach
volumes to the study intersections. The approach volumes shown are simply the sum of the
movements entering and leaving the adjacent intersections, and the hourly peaks at the 24-hour
count locations are also shown. Additionally, the current CDOT daily count found on OTIS is
shown for SH 82. The neighborhoods in the project area are shown on the figure for reference
in discussion within this report. “BRFD” is abbreviated for the Basalt and Rural Fire District,
while “ASC” is a property owned by the Aspen Skiing Company.
During the traffic counts, truck percentages were found to be 5% in the AM peak and 2% in the
PM peak, which is consistent with other locations in the valley. The peak hour factors were 0.89
in the AM peak and 0.93 in the PM peak. These inputs were used in the capacity analysis for all
scenarios. All traffic count information is included in the appendix.
Figure 4 shows that the study intersections on SH 82 in April and May processed between
2,058 and 2,945 vehicles per hour during the peak hours. During this same time period, the
stop-controlled intersection at JW/El Jebel and El Jebel/Valley served between 407 and 794
vehicles during the peak hours.
For use in this traffic analysis, CDOT requires adjustment of these existing volumes to account
for seasonal peak conditions that typically occur in the Roaring Fork Valley in July. The
seasonal adjustment factor for April is 1.14 while the factor is 1.12 for May, as found on OTIS.
The volumes shown on Figure 5 are the result of applying these seasonal peaking factors to the
intersection turning movements and the measured 24-hour volumes. These are the “Baseline”
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 8 counts that are used in the analysis and the basis from which the future baseline scenarios are
developed.
Figure 5 shows that the study intersections on SH 82 would process between 2,346 and 3,298
vehicles per hour during the peak hours of July. This seasonal adjustment provides another
layer to the conservative analysis volumes (which will be grown in a straight-line manner) and
does not account for the modal splits and routing choices that are often influenced by existing
delays and daily congestion.
4.4.
Baseline Intersection Capacity Analysis
AM and PM level of service estimates were prepared in accordance with the Highway Capacity
Manual (Transportation Research Board, 2010). For signalized intersections, the HCM
measures level of service in terms of seconds of delay per vehicle. This is also a measure of
driver discomfort, fuel consumption, and lost travel time. The table below relates the LOS to
seconds of delay per vehicle at a signalized intersection.
LEVEL OF SERVICE CRITERIA
SIGNALIZED INTERSECTIONS
Level of Service
Delay (seconds)
A (Highly Desirable)
< 10.0
B (Desirable)
10.1 to 20
C (Acceptable)
20.1 to 35
D (Acceptable in Urban Areas)
35.1 to 55
E (Unacceptable)
55.1 to 80
F (Unacceptable)
> 80.0
Source: Highway Capacity Manual, 2010
For unsignalized intersections, the Highway Capacity Manual defines level of service and delay
in terms of seconds of stopped delay per vehicle, which is based on the number of acceptable
gaps in the conflicting traffic stream. In general, the traffic movements analyzed are those
controlled by stop signs or yield signs, and the left turn movements from the uncontrolled major
street. The following table represents the level of service criteria for unsignalized intersections:

The “overall” intersection level of service at unsignalized intersections corresponds with the
highest delay experienced on a minor street approach. In general, CDOT and Eagle County
consider overall intersection operations of LOS “D” or better acceptable during the peak hours.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 9 Using the baseline volumes shown on Figure 5, the capacity analysis was run in Synchro to
determine level of service and delay for the study intersections. The following table shows the
overall results of the capacity analysis for all four intersections in the study area. Again, the
LOS and delays reported for the unsignalized intersections at SH 82/JW, El Jebel/Valley, and El
Jebel/JW correspond with the worst performing side street approach (controlled by stop). The
uncontrolled movements at these intersections all operate at LOS “C” or better.

As the table shows, the unsignalized approaches at SH 82/JW Drive will operate with significant
delay during the peak hours. As a result, motorists wishing to access the highway at JW Drive
by turning across the heavy directional flows that exist in the peak hours will incur significant
delay or perform risky maneuvers unless they reroute to another intersection that allows better
access.
It is common in commuter areas for side-street approaches to major intersections along arterials
to operate with significant delays during peak periods, while the majority of the traffic using the
mainline is served by optimizing signal operations along the corridor. Without a traffic signal,
right turning movements from the minor street and left turns from the mainline are the most
common movements during the peak hour when conflicting volumes for side street left turns are
too high for most motorists to feel comfortable turning across traffic. The acceleration lanes
have helped this to an extent, but due to the high speed environment; there are still many
motorists who do not feel comfortable using these lanes effectively.
4.5.
Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
A traffic signal warrant analysis consistent with Chapter 4 of the Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices (MUTCD) was completed using the “Existing” traffic volumes that were
collected at the SH 82/JW Drive intersection in April 2015. No seasonal adjustments were
made to these input volumes, which demonstrate that even during lighter traffic times in the
corridor, several of the warrants are met for signalization.
The data collected at the SH 82/JW Drive intersection included two hours of turning movements
in the AM peak and in the PM peak. Therefore, not enough data was collected to determine if
Warrant 1 Eight-hour Vehicular Volume warrant, was met.
Nonetheless, Warrant 2 Four-hour Vehicular Volume, and Warrant 3 Peak Hour warrants were
both tested using the 70% factor, which applies to communities less than 10,000 in population
or where a posted speed above 40 mph exists on the mainline. The data shows that both
Warrants 2 and 3 are met, based on April 2015 volumes. The side street volumes are fairly
close to the thresholds, while the mainline volumes are close to the end of the range on both of
the following figures showing the Four-Hour and Peak Hour warrants. It should be noted that in
the ACP, this intersection met the peak hour warrant for signalization using the long-term
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 10 forecast volumes for the corridor. However, no signal was recommended for the reasons stated
in Section 3 of this report.
Figure 6
Four Hour Warrant
Figure 7
Peak Hour Warrant
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 11 Since little to no pedestrian activity exists at this intersection and schools are more than a halfmile away, Warrant 4 Pedestrian Volume and Warrant 5 School Crossing were not satisfied.
Warrant 6 Coordinated Signal System is not met, although a signal at JW Drive could be
integrated into the existing system with ease. CDOT has stated that the system is not currently
coordinated through Eagle County and the Town of Basalt. From a coordination standpoint, the
spacing from the El Jebel signal to JW Drive is ideal at one-mile.
Warrant 7 Crash Experience could not fully be assessed without eight hours of counts, but
crash rates were calculated for the intersection using data supplied by CDOT that includes the
accident statistics from 2003 – 2013. From this data, Property Damage Only (PDO), Injury, and
Fatal crash rates were calculated and are shown below:

As shown, the intersection sees a higher rate of injury accidents along this section of SH 82
than the statewide average for “Other Freeways and Expressways” in 2012 (latest year accident
rates are available online). The PDO and Fatal rates are well below the statewide averages.
Digging deeper into the accident summary, we see high numbers of crash types associated with
Overturning, Broadside, Wild Animal, and Fixed Objects, with Wild Animals being the most
common type. In recent years, the SH 82 corridor has seen construction of a wildlife fence
along the more rural portions of the highway including at JW Drive. It is likely that these
accident types have decreased significantly with the new fence, as they have elsewhere along
SH 82 where the fence has been constructed. Broadside accidents may be reduced with a
signal if side street traffic were given a dedicated phase to turn rather than having to “shoot the
gap” to enter the traffic stream from a stop-controlled approach. Often, a new traffic signal may
create more of one accident type (rear-ends) while reducing another type, such as broadsides.
Warrant 8 Roadway Network may apply to the SH 82/JW Drive intersection in that installation of
a signal here could encourage better concentration and organization of flow on the roadway
network by allowing another, equal access point to SH 82 where the El Jebel signal is currently
experiencing congestion. Valley Road and JW Drive may not be characterized as “Major
Routes”, but they are the only primary collectors serving growing areas on both sides of the
highway. When the primary access intersection to the highway for these routes become
congested, alternative access points should be considered or additional future traffic will
continue to congest the existing intersection at SH 82/El Jebel Road. Warrant 9 Intersection
Near a Grade crossing does not apply.
However, two volume warrants are met and two others could potentially be justified at this
location. Given these conditions, a signal will be analyzed as an optional treatment for the SH
82/JW Drive intersection to determine how it may affect the operations and capacity at the El
Jebel signal.
4.6.
Traffic Diversion Affected by Proposed Traffic Signal
If a signal were installed at SH 82/JW Drive, local commuter patterns may shift to utilize the
improved access. In particular, Blue Lake residents oriented to jobs east (up-valley) that
typically use a route from JW Drive to El Jebel Road to SH 82 eastbound might be diverted to
the JW Drive signal and then continue east on SH 82 to their destination.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 12 SGM estimated that approximately 50% of the volume turning from eastbound JW Drive to
southbound El Jebel Road would instead use the signal at JW Drive to access the highway.
This reduces the southbound through and left turn movements at the El Jebel signal, as well as
the corresponding return movements of eastbound right at SH 82/El Jebel and northbound left
at El Jebel/JW Drive. Movements are then diverted to access the highway at the proposed JW
signal. These movements become through movements along the mainline at El Jebel if they
are diverted to a signal at JW Drive.
The basis for this assumed 50% redistribution was developed by calculating travel times for the
two current route options for Blue Lake residents to get to eastbound SH 82. Travel time
calculations include segment travel times, based on length and posted speed, added to the
delay experienced at intersections traversed along the route. A point was picked corresponding
with the assumed “centroid” of the Blue Lake subdivision, at the intersection of JW Drive and
Black Bear Trail (red star). From this point, “East” and “West” commuter routes were measured
on JW Drive by travel time and delay that extended through the El Jebel signal to SH 82 East.
The following figure and table shows the routes and corresponding travel times associated with
the east and west routing choices.
Figure 8
Blue Lake Travel Times
Table 3 below documents the approximate travel times for traffic oriented to the east, as
measured from the assumed centroid of Blue Lake through the SH 82/El Jebel intersection.

The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 13 The results show that the red route through a proposed signal at SH 82/JW Drive may be
approximately 55 seconds faster in the morning peak and 21 seconds faster in the afternoon
peak, when compared to the route most commonly used today (blue route). The calculation
uses the approach delays computed in Scenario 2, contained in the appendix.
A similar diversion might occur in the opposite direction for commuters on the south side of the
highway who use the El Jebel signal to turn west on SH 82 toward Carbondale. However, no
diversion of “southside” based trips was assumed for this study. The density of development
along the north side of the highway within Blue Lake near this intersection also factors into the
diversion assumption made. There is less existing density of housing on the south side
(Summit Vista, Valley View, Aspen Skiing Company), and it is predominantly closer to the El
Jebel intersection than the JW Drive intersection.
Figure 9 was developed to show the intersection volumes adjusted to reflect the assumed 50%
diversion that could be anticipated if a signal were installed. The turning movement volumes
highlighted in boxes are those that were reduced or increased to reflect this assumed diversion.

Baseline with Diversion Intersection Capacity Analysis
Using the Baseline Diverted volumes shown on Figure 9, the capacity analysis was run in
Synchro to determine level of service and delay for the study intersections. The following table
shows the overall results of the capacity analysis for all four intersections in the study area.

With a signal installed at SH 82/JW Drive, the intersection operates at an acceptable LOS “B” or
better. The intersection of SH 82/El Jebel Road shows an improvement of about 10 seconds of
overall delay over the Baseline AM results and about the same operational delay for the PM
peak under the diverted scenario. Similar to the baseline analysis, the movements at the
unsignalized intersections all operate at LOS “C” or better.

Future Baseline Traffic Conditions (2035)
The Baseline and Baseline Diverted volumes found in Figures 5 and 9 were factored up by
CDOT’s published growth factor for this corridor. With the exception of the volumes turning to
and from the east at the SH 82/El Jebel intersection which were factored up by 1.34, all other
volumes, including mainline through volumes at El Jebel, were factored up by 1.38 to develop
future baseline traffic forecasts for the study intersections. The traffic projections for the Future
Baseline analysis scenario is found on Figure 10, while the traffic projections for the Future
Baseline Diverted analysis scenarios is found on Figure 11. The same traffic diversions were
assumed for the Future Baseline Diverted scenario as were assumed for the Baseline Diverted
scenario.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 14 Forecasting by the “straight-line growth factor” method has some limitations, which are
particularly evident in the cases where volumes exceeding the carrying capacity of the
roadways and intersections are projected. In reality, as peak hour volumes approach oversaturated conditions at corridor signals, commuters tend to adjust their habits to reduce their
exposure to the periods when heavy congestion can be expected. This adjustment can be in
the form of increased use of transit or other modes, ride-sharing, other route choices (which are
limited in this case) or simply adjusting the times that they arrive and leave work on a typical
weekday. These adjustments are not accounted for in the forecasts used in this analysis, but
should be considered likely to occur in practice.
Under both the Future Baseline and Future Baseline Diverted scenarios, the intersection of SH
82/El Jebel Road is forecast to (attempt to) serve nearly 4,000 – 4,500 vehicles in the peak
hour.
5.1
Future Baseline Intersection Capacity Analysis
Using the Future Baseline volumes shown on Figure 10, the capacity analysis was run in
Synchro to determine level of service and delay for the study intersections. The following table

Without a signal installed at SH 82/JW Drive, the operational delay could not be calculated for
the minor street approaches, due to excessive v/c ratios, which is LOS “F”. The intersection of
SH 82/El Jebel Road is approaching saturated flow conditions in 20-years, with LOS “E”
operations predicted. The intersection of El Jebel Road/Valley Road also begins to experience
less than acceptable approach delays for the eastbound approach to the stop sign on Valley
Road in the PM peak. These results are expected with or without the addition of traffic
generated by The Fields.

The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 15 With a signal installed at SH 82/JW Drive, the intersection operates at an acceptable LOS “C”
during the peak periods. The intersection of SH 82/El Jebel Road shows an improvement of
about 7 seconds of overall delay over the Baseline AM results and about 12 seconds more
delay over the PM peak under the future diverted scenario. The intersection of El Jebel
Road/Valley Road also begins to experience less than acceptable approach delays for the
eastbound approach to the stop sign on Valley Road in the PM peak. These results are
expected if a signal were installed at SH 82/JW Drive and with or without the addition of traffic
generated by The Fields.

Proposed Development Traffic Generation
Trip generation rates for the proposed land uses for The Fields development were based on
Trip Generation (Institute of Transportation Engineers, 9th Edition, 2012). Trip estimates shown
on Table 7 summarize the total trips expected to be generated by the development during the
AM and PM peak hours and on an average weekday. These estimates are based on the
regression equations provided for Single-Family Homes and Condominium/Townhomes in Trip
Generation and are higher than the estimates found by using the average trip rates. For
example the daily forecast is 18% higher using the regression equation over the standard rates.
SGM is using the more conservative estimates of trip generation for this analysis.

As Table 7 shows, the residential units planned The Fields will generate approximately 787 daily
trips on an average weekday. The site is expected to generate approximately 68 trips in the AM
peak hour and 76 trips in the PM peak hour upon buildout of the current site plan. No
adjustments will be made to these trip generation projections to account for transit or other
mode choices to provide a worst-case depiction of the site’s potential traffic impacts. The Fields
is located within about a mile of the RFTA BRT station at El Jebel and residents may choose to
make future trips via bicycle or foot to and from this station. For the purpose of this study, no
transit reductions were made.
6.1
Trip Distribution and Assignment
Based on the agreed upon 50%/50% east/west distribution of site traffic and assuming a threequarter movement access point to the Fields, the traffic leaving the Fields will all be oriented
exclusively toward the proposed signal at SH 82/JW Drive. At that point, 45% of the site traffic
will be oriented west on SH 82, 5% will be oriented north on JW Drive, and 50% will be oriented
east on SH 82. Of the 50% oriented east, 25% will turn right at El Jebel Road, while the
remaining 25% will continue east on SH 82.
The returning movements and percentages will be the same for all distributions with the
exception of the 25% oriented toward Willits along East Valley Road. This traffic will return via
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 16 Valley Road and turn right into the Fields, while the remaining traffic oriented east will stay on
SH 82 and turn left at the proposed JW signal and follow Valley Road to the site. This return
assignment depends highly on the time at which the commuter arrives at the signal. If the
westbound phasing at SH 82/El Jebel is green, the commuter will likely proceed down the
highway to JW. But if the commuter arrives on red, he may decide to make the left on the
leading arrow of the next phase rather than continuing down the mainline to the JW signal.
Figure 12 shows the assignment of project traffic volumes to the study intersections. This also
includes site traffic at the access point onto Valley Road.
6.2
Projected Buildout Volumes
Using the volumes assignments found on Figure 12, total traffic volumes were developed that
include the 20-year traffic forecasts plus the site generated traffic. These estimates were
developed for the Future Baseline plus Project and Future Baseline Diverted plus Project
scenarios. These final volumes are shown on Figures 13 and 14.
7.0
Future Traffic Conditions with The Fields Traffic
Capacity analysis was run for the 20-year time period that includes the addition of The Fields
traffic demand at buildout. The results show that there continues to be operational issues in the
corridor resulting in saturated flow conditions in the peak hour. In both scenarios, the El Jebel
Road signal cycles have been maxed out to 150 seconds in Synchro and timing has been
optimized consisting of protected/permissive phasing with leading lefts for all approaches. The
JW Drive signal would best be served initially on a half-cycle of the El Jebel cycle to maintain
acceptable minor street levels of service and provide acceptable corridor progression. Transit
Signal Priority (TSP) for RFTA buses has not been modeled into the signals but would need to
be incorporated into the final timing plans.
As has been mentioned previously, the straight-line growth that is used to develop the future
year forecasts does not account for capacity based decisions and route and mode adjustments
made by the local commuters during seasonal peaks. Additionally, the traffic demand attributed
to The Fields could conceivably already be accounted for in CDOT’s 20-year factor. In a recent
study approved by CDOT in this same area, CDOT acknowledged that this method of growth
forecasting could be appropriate since “CDOT’s projections do not specify when or where
growth will occur”. This first-come, first-serve approach is a reasonable method for forecasting
growth and it reduces the opportunity to “double-count” traffic volumes or overestimate future
projections. However, this report employs the more conservative approach of adding site traffic
demand to the 20-year projections developed from CDOT’s published factors.
7.1
Total Traffic Capacity Analysis
Using the Future Baseline + Project (Scenario 5) volumes shown on Figure 13 and the Future
Baseline Diverted + Project (Scenario 6) volumes shown on Figure 14, the capacity analysis
was run in Synchro to estimate level of service and delay for the study intersections. Below is a
screenshot of the Synchro simulation model developed for the Total Traffic Diverted PM peak
scenario. This is meant to show the extents of the modeling network from the JW intersection
on the left to the El Jebel intersection on the right. The output of the Synchro capacity analysis
is contained in the appendix.

The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 18 The tables show that the influence of The Fields traffic on project operations without the project
are only slightly better than when project traffic demand is added to the system. In either case,
operations at the El Jebel signal are LOS “E”. The results of Table 8 show about a second of
overall delay is added to the SH 82/El Jebel intersection when the Fields traffic is added under
the “undiverted” scenario (compared to Table 5). Under the diverted scenario, this intersection
operates with approximately 2 more seconds of delay during the peaks when The Fields traffic
demand is added (when compared to Table 6).
Under both scenarios, the minor approaches to the intersection of El Jebel Road/Valley Road
experience poor LOS conditions. This is not unexpected and the operations will be LOS “E”
without the Fields traffic demand added and LOS “F” with traffic demand added. Potentially, this
poor LOS here could divert more traffic to the JW signal during peak hours. Eagle County has
planned improvements on the south side of the highway to improve the current conditions of the
El Jebel/Valley Road intersection, but funding for that project is not currently in place.
Based on the traffic forecasts contained in this analysis, very little that can be done from a
geometric or timing standpoint to improve peak hour operations at the El Jebel Road signal that
doesn’t include adding through lanes along the mainline. This improvement for the State
Highway 82 corridor is politically and financially infeasible in the current climate. If the Access
Control Plan were conducted today, using this study’s baseline volumes and current growth
factors, it would likely show the need for additional through capacity on the highway corridor in
order to achieve acceptable peak hour operations at the signals. CDOT’s current directive of
studying tolling as an option for any major capacity improvements is another reason that an
expanded Highway 82 section is further from reality than a train on the Rio Grande Trail.
Providing another, well-spaced controlled access point to the mainline that allows for
redundancy of local access and/or systemic improvements including signal coordination and
adaptive signal timing could be employed to maximize the volumes of traffic that the SH 82
corridor can serve in the future. Today, it is not uncommon to incur delays equivalent to one
cycle length (100 – 120 seconds) while traveling in the primary direction of the mainline during
peak hours of the summer, and potentially two or more cycles on the minor street approaches.
A proposed signal at SH 82/JW Drive will likely take some of the conflicting approaches at the El
Jebel signal during peak hours.
7.2
Signal Progression Analysis
A proposed signal at SH 82/JW Drive would be located about one mile from the existing El
Jebel signal to the east and 2.5 miles to the Catherine’s Store (CR 100) signal to the west. One
mile is the desired spacing for traffic signals along Expressway corridors. A highway bandwidth
of 40% or greater is also desirable as prescribed in the Code. The Synchro analysis that
calculates delays and levels of service for the study intersections also provides a time-space
diagram to estimate the corridor bandwidth based on the proposed timing plans for the highway
signals.
Using the Future Baseline Diverted (Scenario 6) models for AM and PM peaks and selecting the
90th percentile volumes for evaluation, the signal progression analysis shows an eastbound AM
peak band of 64 seconds and a westbound band of 62 seconds. With a 150 second cycle at El
Jebel, this represents a bandwidth of 43% in the peak direction (eastbound) and 41% in the
secondary direction. In the PM peak, the eastbound band is 70 seconds while the westbound
band is 62 seconds. This corresponds with bandwidths of 47% in the secondary direction and
41% in the primary direction during the PM peak. The time-space diagrams are contained in the
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 19 appendix and all show that the minimum bandwidth can theoretically be achieved if a signal
were installed at JW Drive.
7.3
Buildout Traffic Turn Lane Analysis
Turn lane adequacy on SH 82 at the JW Drive intersection was analyzed under the Future
Baseline Diverted + Project scenario, which produces higher turning movement demand from
the mainline when compared to the unsignalized scenario. The existing turn lanes at the SH
82/JW Drive intersection were measured to determine if they are designed adequately for future
buildout conditions of The Fields. Their dimensions were compared against forecast demand
volumes, which is the basis for their initial design.
Turn lanes along Expressways are designed per the State Highway Access Code as such:
•
•
•
Left turn deceleration lane = taper + deceleration length + storage
Right turn deceleration lane = taper + deceleration length
Acceleration lane = accel length + taper
The Code specifies that for a flat 55 mph highway, tapers for a standard 12’ lane are 222’ in
length, acceleration length is 960 feet, and deceleration length is 600 feet. Storage length is
defined in Table 4-8 of the Code and is generally equivalent to one foot of storage per vehicle
turning in the peak hour. Left turn acceleration lanes are generally not required at signalized
intersections, so these lane dimensions are shown for information only.
The following table shows the existing turn lane dimensions (length + taper), maximum peak
hour turning volume, standard design and difference if existing lane is longer/shorter than the
forecast demand warrants. The standard design is shown for both 55 mph and 45 mph posted
speeds. The table shows all eastbound (EB) turn lane dimensions followed by all westbound
(WB) turn lane dimensions.

1 – 55 mph / 45 mph Design Standards
As the table shows, the existing turn lane lengths are all sized under the requirements set forth
in the code, based on 20-year forecast turning movements at a 55 mph posted speed. These
lanes may have been designed for 45 mph conditions, although the tapers generally correspond
with the 18.5:1 taper rates specified in the Code for 55 mph highways. As the design standards
show for 45 mph, the turn lanes would meet the current standard under 20-year signalized
traffic demand at SH 82/JW Drive.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 20 The posted speed on SH 82 is lowered from 55 mph to 45 mph on the approaches to many of
the signalized intersections in the corridor (CMC, Catherine’s Store, and Basalt Avenue) to
promote slower speeds in the vicinity of the signals, while the longer segments are posted at 55
mph. This speed limit reduction is recommended for both approaches to the proposed signal at
JW Drive.
The three-mile section of SH 82 from JW Drive to Two Rivers Road (Lower) contains four traffic
signals today, and corridor operations would benefit from coordinating the timing of the signals
to achieve progressive movement for the peak direction. The spacing of signals allows a mile
between JW and El Jebel, a half-mile between El Jebel and Willits, a mile between Willits and
Original, and a half-mile between Original and Two Rivers Road. This is a relatively easy way
to maximize the corridor throughput during busy times and should be in place today via hardwire

Queuing Analysis
As a second check of the current deceleration turn lane design and length of the turn lanes on
the minor street approaches, the 95th percentile queuing results estimated by Synchro/Simtraffic
are provided in the table below. The queuing results are also shown in Figure 16 below for both
AM and PM peaks. The results depicted include the left turn queues from the mainline and the
northbound and southbound queues on Valley Road and JW Drive (the right turn deceleration
storage lengths are one to two car lengths).

AM Peak
PM Peak
As the figure above shows, storage queues in the morning peak are generally handled by the
existing turn lanes and approaches, with the exception of the northbound approach (Valley
Road). Here, morning queues may block the adjacent intersection with the frontage road. A
“Do Not Block Intersection” sign may assist in keeping this intersection clear during peaks.
Queues in the PM peak for the eastbound left turn into Blue Lake are estimated to be over 500
feet long, but this is mainly a result of the heavy conflicting westbound flows in the PM peak
This predicted queue length could be accommodated in the lane provided today, but reduces
the deceleration length to about 225 feet when it fills.
This lane may need extension in the future, which could be accomplished by paving the existing
median. In general, right turn deceleration and acceleration lanes at this intersection could be
extended by restriping the existing pavement (shoulder pavement is generally provided), while
left turn lane extensions for deceleration lanes would require additional pavement in the median
and adjustments to the barrier that separates flow on the highway. No changes to the
acceleration lanes are recommended if a signal is installed.
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 22 At El Jebel Road, 95th percentile queues were also calculated using Scenario 6 volumes and
are shown in the table and graphically below. The graphic shows the extents of the eastbound
and westbound left turn 95th percentile queues and the longest queue calculated for the
northbound and southbound approaches.

95 Percentile Queue Lengths at SH 82/El Jebel Road
th
AM Peak
PM Peak
As the figure above shows, storage queues in the morning peak are generally handled by the
existing turn lanes. The eastbound left turn queue length in the morning peak is approaching
the lane’s current storage capacity. The westbound left turn queue length in the afternoon peak
is also approaching the lane’s current storage capacity. In both cases, the existing paved
median width would allow a simple restriping to lengthen these turn lanes if needed in the
future.
On the northbound approach, PM peak queues extend past the Valley Road intersection. This
area is planned to be improved by Eagle County in a future project that will lengthen the
highway approach and reduce the queue backups through adjacent intersections. On the
southbound approach, the 95th percentile queues extend to the Favre Lane intersection. This
side of the highway is also planned to be improved with right-in, right-out accesses between SH
82 and Shadowrock, with a roundabout at Shadowrock to facilitate u-turning movements. There
is potential that with the signalized intersection at JW Drive, the heavy congestion for side street
traffic at SH 82/El Jebel might divert more traffic away from this signal to another route than was
estimated in this study.
Valley Road Access Conditions
This analysis assumes a right-in, right-out, left-in access configuration (3/4 movement) to
physically prevent vehicles from exiting the site any access to the south approach to the signal
at El Jebel. This was proposed as a different approach to solving a known regional traffic issue
at SH 82/El Jebel Road. Given that the improvements on the south side of SH 82 at El Jebel
would likely cost more than this single development could bear, the installation of a signal at JW
Drive could attract more vehicles away from the El Jebel intersection than we’ve assumed in
this study (50% Blue Lake diversion), particularly from the south side of the highway. There is
concern, however, for the potential for u-turn movements somewhere west of the access on
Valley Road made by residents wishing to make trips to the Willits area or Crown Mountain and
bypass SH 82.
Given that there are other properties along Valley Road in this same area that operate with
uncontrolled access points, it does not seem reasonable for the County to require one
development a particular access pattern, while allowing others already impacting the system
unlimited access. It is likely that residents in these adjacent developments may shift their travel
patterns and begin using the signal at JW as their primary highway access, depending on their
destination. The Fields’ access is about 0.45 miles from JW Drive, while it is 0.85 miles from El
Jebel Road. The majority of the residents will likely use the route via JW Drive (if it were
signalized), but the diversion of those commuters wishing to access the south side of the
highway at El Jebel actually worsens the delay incurred by the Valley Road approach to the El
Jebel/Valley Road intersection, since these vehicles are now turning right off SH 82 and travel
through the El Jebel/Valley intersection.
Commuter traffic patterns tend to gravitate toward the areas of less delay. Given that the
access control measure proposed at the Fields entrance is not a safety measure and is purely
meant to control a specific volume from entering a specific intersection, it would be appropriate
and reasonable to monitor its effectiveness, if installed. As patterns change with the new signal
installation, additional capacity may open up at the El Jebel signal, thereby allowing for more
direct travel patterns for Fields residents to the adjacent shopping centers in the Willits area.

Conclusions and Proposed Mitigation Measures
This analysis was completed to be conservative and thus not underestimate future traffic
conditions with or without The Fields project demand. The analysis shows that CDOT and
Eagle County’s current standard of LOS “D” for intersections may be difficult to maintain in the
SH 82 corridor in the future, given current forecasting methods and the existing four lane
section. Other factors in the analysis contributing to conservative or “worst-case” results
include:
• Seasonally adjusted volumes
• No transit or multi-modal trip reductions
• Trip generation regression equations used instead of average rates
• Site trips generated added to 20-year forecasts (not included in the 20-year projections)
All of these conservative adjustments provide additional layers to the analysis, creating a future
picture that may be considerably worse than what actually occurs at buildout of the site.
The Fields is projected to generate a total of 787 trips on an average weekday at buildout. This
includes 68 potential trips made in the morning peak and 76 potential trips made in the
afternoon peak. The project proposes a traffic signal at the intersection of SH 82/JW Drive that
will be the primary access point for the site to the regional highway system. The site access is
The Fields Traffic Impact Study August 2015 Page 25 less than a half mile from this access point, compared to the 0.85 miles to the signal at El Jebel
Road, which is shown to operate at LOS “D” today during either peak hour.
Due to current congestion at this signal and the connectivity of county collector roadways that
provide access to neighborhoods and the adjacent full-movement access to the highway at JW
Drive, a signal here may divert a portion of existing minor street turning movements from the El
Jebel intersection. This will give residents on either side of the highway another opportunity or
route for priority access to SH 82. The analysis shows that a signal operating at JW Drive
would assist turning movements at both intersections, thereby potentially providing additional
capacity at the current El Jebel signal (than would be forecast without a signal). Under either
the future buildout or the future buildout diverted scenarios, the intersection of SH 82/El Jebel is
shown to operate at LOS “E” with a maximum allowable cycle length of 150 seconds. The
analysis shows that a signal at JW would operate effectively on a 75 second cycle and be able
to provide a corridor green time bandwidth of between 41% and 47%, depending on time of day
and direction of flow.
The Fields project proposes the following mitigation measures to alleviate their impact of the
projected 787 daily trips that the site may generate upon buildout:
• Installation of a traffic signal at SH 82/JW Drive
• Construct a 3/4 movement access at the site driveway on Valley Road
• Install a “Do Not Block Intersection” sign on the northbound approach of Valley Road,
south of the frontage road.
• Provide an internal trail system with connections to adjacent trails and the regional
system, including the RFTA park and ride at SH 82/El Jebel Road
Other measures that could be employed to improve traffic flow along SH 82 during the peak
hours include providing signal coordination through this section of Eagle County and Basalt.
Optimized signal timing plans could be developed based on current volumes if a more adaptive
traffic control system were in place on the corridor. CDOT is currently exploring and testing this
technology in other corridors in the state and it may prove to reduce mainline delays during
peak hours in the future as the signal system operates more efficiently as a whole. A potential
drawback of an adaptive system is that it will likely prioritize the mainline traffic with the heaviest
flows and create longer delay times on the minor street approaches. Optimization of signal
timing and corridor progression will be the primary future improvements, short of expanding the
highway corridor to six lanes.
This analysis demonstrates that there are many needs for transportation improvements in this
part of the SH 82 corridor in Eagle County. The Fields is proposing a reasonable set of
measures with the intent of reducing the side street pressure on the heavily congested
intersection at El Jebel Road and providing redundancy to the regional highway system by
improving the highway connection at JW Drive.
