• 1Mr. Deanl • February $, 1173 pep four 3. There appears to be a heavy reliance on Mare construction by others of Via Apple, Lafayette Street, and Adzes AVOW outside the platted subdivision. Some commitment should be made for the construction of these roads outside the platted area, or exca 1vely long dead-and traffic situations will exist throughout the subdivision for some tieet. 4. The 30-foot separation between South Place and Via Apple is most unde- sirable from an aesthetic and design point of view. Perhaps a different configuration for the Jackson Circle - South Place area should be attempted. S. The plans provide for intersections with existing platted streets within the City of Louisville, except for Harper Street. There should be some Justification for this ceseisslon. 3shool System Studies conducted by the Boulder Valley School District indicate that there is an average of .449 elementary students for each single-family dwelling. Studies in multi-family areas tndlcatm that there is an average of four (4) a eerentary students per acre of multi-fawny development, regardless of the number of units. Using these estimates there will be 228 students generated from the multi-family dwelling units and i31 students would be generated from the proposed single- family unit for a total of 359 students. The enrollment in the Louisville Ei.men- tary School is at 283 and has a design capacity of 385 students. Therefore, an expansion of the existing will be needed as a result of the development of this annexation or a new school will have to be built. The Louisville Junior High has a design capacity of 260, but has an enroll«mn of 289. Therefore, the development of this area will increase time over-capacity of the existing structure and result in the need for a larger school. It is anticipated that the Centaurus Nigh School will be sufficient to accommodate the growth In the Louisville area. Police Protection, Often it is recommended that two pol i cemen be employed for every 1,000 persons of population. Thus, the development of land would mean that four (4) more policemen should be added to the Police Department. Fire Protection, It ..raid seem that the present fire department would not have to be expanded because of this development. However, based on standards of the American In- surance Assoclation.if the development includes multi-family structure of more than three (3) stories, than the coumunity would need to add one ladder company to the depar mace. Greenbelt There appears that no consideration was given for the Goodhue Ditch drat traverses the property. From an aesthetic point of view, land should be dedicated along the ditch as part of a City open space program. •
