Review #1 comments received from Department of Public Works (DPW) on Nov 4 regarding the Gateway Trucking Transportation Memorandum (dated May 20, 2021):

(1) – Pg 5 references the CDOT Access Permit Application “is attached.” This has not been provided and is required by the Development Agreement Item 3. Request developer to submit per agreement.
(2) – Pg 12, 2nd paragraph states “LSC estimates that during peak season, when all 20 trucks are used for local projects, the site generates about 80 vehicle trips on the average weekday, with about half entering and half exiting the site during a 24-hr period.” Upon some cursory investigation via google maps satellite view, it appears the level of trucks/vehicles operating exceeds these estimates. Recommend developer and consultant provide and submit explanation on the attached satellite views.
(3) – Pg 18, 4th bullet references a “geotechnical evaluation of the gravel roadway surface/structure is forthcoming.” Request developer provides a copy of this referenced geotech evaluation.
(4) – Pg 30, Section 9.1.1. Short Term provides recommendations for repair of deficiencies and cost estimate for “upgrade”, which correlates with the Developer requirement in Development Agreement Item 2.b). Request developer provides more detail and confirmation of infrastructure adequacy, as further mentioned on Pg 19-20, Section 6.3, 3rd bullet.
(5) – Pg 30, Section 9.1.2. Long Term provides proposed “applicant’s share” of 29%, which correlates with the Developer requirement in Development Agreement Item 2.c). Request developer resolves above item (2) and subsequently reevaluates or validates this proposed share.


Per the Developer Agreement number 4, DPW has generated initial estimates for annual maintenance cost. DPW will reassess the estimates for annual maintenance cost after the above items (1) through (5) has been addressed, at which point the estimates for the annual maintenance cost will be provided to the applicant.
