Comment: Access on to Barron Rd a minor arterial will be an issue. Based on the spacing between Barron Rd and SH 40 there is approximately 325 feet to work with. Based on the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) driveway spacing for a minor arterial is 300 feet to both sides for at total length of 600 feet. Access on SH 40 will have to be coordinated with TxDOT. Driveway spacing would be at a minimum of 360' for 45 mph and 425' for 50 mph. Ultimately, TxDOT will build a grade separated interchange. 2. Comment: The comp plan amendment application was received prior to the new TIA ordinance adopted on October 23, 2008, however just to be able to judge the potential impact of this development an analysis was conducted with the new TIA ordinance requirement. Based on C3 zoning, 40 trips in the peak hour per acre was used for the analysis. 40 trips times 2.149 acres equals 88 trips in the peak hour generated by this development. Under the new ordinance of 150 trips in the peak hour threshold, this development would not have triggered a TIA. In the Site Plan stage this development will also be reviewed to see if it triggers a TIA. If the comp plan remains the same, single family residential, according to the UDO 8 dwellings per acre will be allowed. 8 dwellings times 2.149 acres equals 19.35 dwellings. Based on the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) manual, 10.10 vehicles per day (vpd) and 1.02 trips in the peak pm period will be generated per dwelling unit. 19.35 times 10.10 equals 195 vpd. 19.35 times 1.02 equals 20 trips per the peak period. 3. Comment: Current traffic counts available are 2006 Average Daily Traffic (ADT) conducted by TxDOT. The counts are actually on Wellborn Road. Traffic on Wellborn, north of SH 40 is 16,900 ADT and south of SH 40 is 4,900 ADT. The assumption can be made that the majority of traffic utilized SH 40 in between these counts. The remaining traffic utilizing SH 40 is 12,000 ADT. For SH 40, based on the Highway Capacity Manual SH 40 and based on preliminary analysis would fall within the Level of Service of C. 1101 Texas Avenue, P.O.
