Some of the base districts which were established under preceding ordinances have been converted to new base districts under this Code. Section 4.02.7. New and Unlisted Uses. New types of land use will develop and forms of land use not anticipated may seek to locate in the City. In order to provide for such changes and contingencies, a determination as to the appropriate classification of any new or unlisted form of land use shall be made as follows: 1. The Director of Planning & Development shall refer the question of any new or unlisted use to the Commission, requesting an interpretation as to the zoning classification into which such use should be placed. The referral of the use interpretation question shall be accompanied by a Statement of Facts listing the nature of the use and whether it involves inhabitation, sales, processing, type of product, storage, and amount or nature thereof, enclosed or open storage, anticipated employment, transportation requirements, traffic generation, the amount of noise, odor, fumes, dust, toxic material and vibration likely to be generated and the general requirements for public utilities such as water and sanitary sewer. 2. The Commission shall consider the nature and described performance of the proposed use and its compatibility with the uses permitted in the various districts and determine the zoning district or districts where such use should be permitted. 3. The Commission shall transmit its findings and recommendations to the City Council as to the classification proposed for any new or unlisted use. The City Council shall by resolution approve, modify, or deny the recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission. Section 4.03. Newly Annexed Territory. All territory hereafter annexed to the City shall be temporarily classified as "A -O" - Agricultural/ Open Space District until permanent zoning is established by the City Council.

It is the intent of this Code to permit such non -conforming uses to continue, as long as the conditions within this section and other applicable sections are met. b. It is further the intent of this Code that non -conforming uses shall not be enlarged upon, expanded or extended, and not be used as a basis for adding other structures or uses prohibited elsewhere in the same district. c. Non -conforming uses are hereby declared to be incompatible with the permitted uses in the affected districts. 2. Non -conforming Status. Any use, platted lot or structure which does not conform with the regulations of the zoning district in which it is located shall be deemed a non -conforming use or structure when: a. The use, platted lot or structure was in existence and lawfully operating prior to June 21, 1972 or the adoption of this Code and which has since been in regular and continuous use; or b. The use, platted lot or structure was in existence and lawfully constructed, located, and operating at the time of any amendment to this Code, but by such amendment is placed in a district wherein such use, platted lot or structure is not otherwise permitted and has since been in regular and continuous use; 4.4 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE c. The use, platted lot or structure was in existence at the time of annexation into the City and has since been in regular and continuous use. 2. Continuing Lawful Use of Property a. The lawful use of land or lawful existence of structures at the time of passage of this Code, although such do not conform to the provisions hereof, may be continued; but if said non -conforming use or structure is discontinued or abandoned, any future use of the premises shall be in conformity with the provisions of this Code. b. Discontinuance of a non -conforming use shall commence on the actual act or date of discontinuance. Abandonment of a non -conforming structure shall commence on the act or date of abandonment. c. When a non -conforming use or structure does not meet the development standards of this Code, is discontinued or abandoned for a period of six (6) months, such use shall not be resumed, and proof of such event shall constitute prima fascia evidence of an act of abandonment. Any non -conforming use which does not involve a permanent structure and which is moved from the premises shall be considered to have been abandoned. d. No non -conforming use may be abandoned, reoccupied with another non -conforming use or increased as of the effective date of this Code. e. Single family or two family dwellings constructed on platted lots which may now be non- conforming due to stricter standards, shall be deemed in conformance with this Code, as long as the use of the lot is allowed in the respective district. Only the lot size, lot depth, setbacks and width shall be allowed to be less than the regulations prescribed in the zoning district in which it is located. All other regulations of this Code shall be met or the lot shall be considered non -conforming. f. Any existing vacant lot platted prior to the adoption of this Code which was legally conforming shall be deemed a conforming lot. g. Uses which, prior to the effective date of this Code do not provide the required number of off-street parking spaces, shall not be considered as nonconforming structures. 3. Changing Non -Conforming Uses a. Any non -conforming use may be changed to a conforming use, and once such a change is made, the use shall not be changed back to a non -conforming use. b. Where a conforming use is located in a non -conforming structure, the use may be changed to another conforming use as provided in subsection 4. below. c. A non -conforming use may not be changed to another non -conforming use. 4. Expansion of a Non -Conforming Use or Structure. An expansion of a non -conforming use or structure is allowed in accordance with the following: a. A non -conforming use located within a building may be extended throughout the existing building if: i. No structural alteration may be made except those required to preserve the structure. fl. The number of dwelling units or rooms in a non -conforming residential structure shall not be increased so as to exceed the number of dwelling units or rooms existing as the time the use became non -conforming. 4.5 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE b. No non -conforming use within a building may be extended to occupy any land outside the building. c. No non -conforming use of land or building shall be enlarged, increased, or extended to occupy a greater area of land than was occupied at the time the land became a non- conforming use, except to provide off-street loading or off-street parking. d. The minimum residential lot areas for the various zoning districts shall be in accordance with their respective districts except that a lot having less area than herein required which was an official "Lot of record" prior to the adoption of this Code may be used for a single family dwelling. e.

A Detail Site Plan may be submitted in lieu of the Concept Plan. I. Concept Plan. This plan shall be submitted by the applicant at the time of application. The plan shall graphically show the applicant's intent for the use of the land within the proposed Planned Development District. If the ordinance establishing a Planned Development District approves a Concept Plan, a Detail Site Plan shall be submitted to the Director of Planning ands Development for approval within six (6) months after the approval of the Concept Plan by the City Council and prior to preliminary plat approval and the issuance of any building permit in accordance withthis Code. The Detail Site Plan shall conform to the Development Regulations and the approved Concept Plan. Changes of detail on the Detail Site Plan, which differ from the approved Concept Plan, but do not alter the basic relationship of the proposed development to adjacent property, the uses permitted, increase the density, building height, coverage of site, off-street parking ratio, or area regulations as indicated on the approved Concept Plan may be authorized by the Director of Planning and Development. A Detail Site Plan may be submitted for the total area of the Planned Development District or for any sections or part as approved on the Concept Plan. If the Director of Planning and Development disapproves the Detail Site Plan, the applicant may appeal the decision to the Planning and Zoning Commission. If the applicant initially submits a Concept Plan but fails to submit a Detail Site Plan within six (6) months after City Council approval of the ordinance establishing the Planned Development District, the Concept Plan shall be reviewed by the City Council 4.12 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE to determine the continued validity of the Concept Plan, unless the Director of Planning and Development has granted an extension not to exceed six (6) months. (a) Residential Concept Plan. A Concept Plan for residential land use shall show site topography with contour intervals, the boundary of the Planned Development District, generalized location of treed areas, floodplain areas, location of all land use areas and gross acreage for each use and tract, density (net and gross), identification of major access points, rights- of-way or other areas to be dedicated to the City, open space or common areas, parkland, preliminary lot arrangements and street patterns, indication of each phase of development if separate phases are proposed, and other information to adequately describe the proposed development.

For residential development which does not propose individual platted lots, the concept plan shall also show the size, type and location of buildings, building sites, lot coverage, access, screening, parking and circulation areas, and landscaped areas. (b) Nonresidential Concept Plan. A Concept Plan for other than residential uses shall show site topography with contour intervals, the boundary of the Planned Development District, floodplain areas, generalized locations of treed areas, the land uses, gross acreage for each use, building sites or lots, lot coverage, floor area, ratio for each use, building height and location, parking and circulation areas, identification of major access points, rights-of-way or other areas to be dedicated to the City, location of building setbacks along the site boundaries, on dedicated streets, and between residential and non-residential uses, parking ratios, off-street parking and loading, indication of each phase of development if separate phases are proposed and other information to adequately describe the proposed development. Detail Site Plan.

The Detail Site Plan shall be a scale drawing which graphically shows the same information required for a Concept Plan for the respective type of development. All development and construction shall conform to the approved Detail Site Plan. An amendment to a Detail Site Plan approved as a part of the ordinance establishing the Planned Development District is a change in zoning district classification and must follow the same procedures set forth in Section 4.06, except the Director of Planning and Development may approve minor revisions which do not alter the basic relationship of the proposed development to adjacent property, the uses permitted, increase the density, building height, coverage of site, off-street parking ratio, or area regulations as indicated on the approved Detail Site Plan. The approval of the Detail Site Plan shall be the basis for the issuance of a building permit, but does not release the applicant of the responsibility to submit plans to the Chief Building Official for a building permit. 4.13 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE d. Compliance. Development Regulations, the Concept Plan or the Detail Site Plan are conditions that must be complied with before a Certificate of Occupancy may be granted. 5. Open Space. For all residential uses (including multi -family uses) within a Planned Development District open space (whether dedicated to public use or owned and maintained in common by all or part of the occupants of the Planned Development District through a property or homeowner association) shall be provided within the Planned Development District reserved primarily for the leisure and recreational use of the occupants of the residential uses. The open space shall comprise not less than one (1) acre of land for each seventy-five (75) dwelling units.

If any portion of a development a drainage course, lies within 100 feet from the top of a high bank, or is identified as located within the 100 -year Floodplain on any Federal Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), a detailed study of the area is required. If the drainage area is 160 acres or greater, then the ultimate floodplain must be established. The Floodplain Administrator may require additional technical information prior to accepting the results of any study. 3. Floodplain areas will be platted and dedicated to the City, either separately or together with the adjacent property. The City may any decline dedication of floodplain land, but may require the area to be maintained as private open space. 4. The areas of special flood hazard identified by FEMA in a scientific and engineering report entitled, The Flood Insurance Study for Collin County, Texas and Incorporated Areas, dated January, 1996, with accompanying Flood Insurance Rate Maps and Flood Boundary- Floodway Maps (FIRM and FBFM) and any revisions thereto are adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this Code. 5.

The Building & Standards Commission may attach such conditions to the granting of variances, as it deems necessary to further the purpose and objectives of this section. f. Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway K any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. g. Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic structures upon a determination that the proposed repair or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's continued designation as a historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the structure. h. Prerequisites for granting variances: I. Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief. it. Variances shall only be issued upon, (a) showing a good and sufficient cause; (b) a determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the applicant, and (c) a determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood elevation, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, nuisances, fraud on or victimization of the public, or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances. .1 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE iii. Any application for which a variance is granted shall be given written notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with the lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation, and that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced lowest floor elevation. Section 5.01.7. Provisions for Flood Hazard Reduction. 1. General Standards. In all areas of special flood hazards the following provisions are required for all new construction and substantial improvements. a. Improvements will be designed (or modified) and adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic loads, including the effects of buoyancy; b. Improvements will be constructed by methods and practices that minimize flood damage; c. Improvements will be constructed with materials resistant to flood damage; d. Improvements will be constructed with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities designed and/or located to prevent water from entering or accumulating within the components during conditions of flooding. e. All new and replacement water supply systems will be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system; f. New and replacement wastewater collection systems will be designed to minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood waters into the system and discharge from the systems into flood waters; and, g. On-site waste disposal systems shall be located to avoid impairment or contamination during flooding. 2. Speck Standards. In all areas of special flood hazards where base flood elevation data has been provided, the following is required: a. Residential Construction. New construction and substantial improvement of any residential structure shall have the lowest floor (including the basement) to twenty-four inches above the base flood elevation. A registered professional engineer, architect or surveyor shall certify to the base slab or lowest structural member. b. Nonresidential Construction. New construction and substantial improvements of any commercial, industrial or other nonresidential structure shall either have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated to eighteen inches above the base flood level or together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, and be designed so that below the base flood level the .structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy. A registered professional engineer or architect shall develop and/or review structural design, specifications, and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice as outlined in this subsection. A record of such certification which includes the specific elevation (in relation to mean sea level) to which such structures are flood -proofed shall be maintained by the Floodplain Administrator. 5.7 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE Enclosures.

Hard Surface Trails Design Objectives • The alignment should follow the contours of the land and the natural drainage patterns. The trail should not appear to be carved out of the terrain. • Trails should be gently curvilinear, and may include a combination of radii and straight segments. Serpentine or sinuous trail alignments are not desirable and should be limited to instances where tree preservation necessitates such alignments. • Meanders in trails should appear to have a purpose, and should not be haphazard or regular. • Create functional, efficient circulation patterns that present and preserve the natural terrain and vegetation to the greatest extent possible. Locate intersections at natural focal points such as scenic vistas and convenient access points. Design 90° trail intersections with tum radii at a minimum of 10'- 0'. Larger turn radii may be acceptable when trails intersect at planting beds, signage, or other focal points. • Where conditions apply, trails shall align with existing or future crosswalks at streets. These intersections shall incorporate handicap accessible ramps that meet the design criteria of the Americans with Disabilities Act. 2. Design Standards a. 0 Prepared Sub -grade —Over -excavate unstable subgrade soils where encountered and replace with city approved fill material. Compact all fill to 95% standard proctor Q -2% to +4% optimum. Remove all topsoil prior to subgrade preparation and use in finish grading work along trail edges after concrete has cured. Import additional soil backfill as needed for trail edges to provide a minimum 3 -foot wide trail shoulder (AASHTO) and an embankment blended with existing grade on both sides of the trail. All embankments must be " mswee ro constructed at movable MEL ro enr�H i _ w veon�rv• slopes (4:1 grade or less). ,x.o �•�,� � ^^��*'�� Pavement Structure — The standard pavement is reinforced Portland cement concrete (concrete mix: 5 - sack, 3,000 pounds/square inch minimum, 3-5 inch slump, 10% fly ash content maximum) with a transverse light to medium broom finish. One inch (14 mm) ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I redwood expansion joints shall be placed in the trail at an interval of 20 feet in 10' wide trails and 24' feet in 8 -foot side trails. Expansion joints shall be topped and sealed with a self -leveling elastomeric joint compound, flush with the top surface of pavement on both sides of the joint. Contraction joints shall be placed at intervals equal to the trail width and shall be of a depth of one- fourth the pavement thickness. The joints shall be saw -cut one-fourth inch (3.175 mm) wide. For optimum user comfort, the finished surface of trails should not vary more than .02 feet (0.63 cm) from the lower edge of an 8 -foot (2.4 m) long straight edge when laid on the surface in any direction. The trail concrete thickness shall be 5 inches minimum. The reinforcement shall be #3 (minimum) deformed steel bar at a maximum of 18 inches on center. both ways, on chairs (welded wire mesh is not acceptable). C. Width & Clearance — Trails on which a mix of bicycle, pedestrian and other non -motorized transportation, and large maintenance vehicles, are required to navigate steep grades, should be 12 feet (3.7 m) wide. Otherwise, a 10 - foot (3 m) width is adequate. The minimum width of a one -directional bicycle path is 10 feet for maintenance access and passing room for cyclists. One- way bicycle paths often will be used as two-way facilities unless effective measures are taken to assure one-way operation.

LLIM[ fMAGBt 1.2 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I The optimum vertical clearance of obstructions over a trail is 10 feet (3 m) or higher, which accommodates maintenance, patrol, and emergency vehicle access. All underpasses and tunnels should be a minimum of 10 feet in height. The standard minimum vertical clearance is 8 feet (2.4 m). If vertical clearances under bridges and other structures is less than 10 feet, the clearance shall be clearly posted with warning signage to alert approaching trail users. Figure 2. Hard Surface Concrete Trail A 3 -foot minimum (0.9 m) wide graded shoulder should be constructed and maintained adjacent to both sides of the trail surface. Two feet (0.6 m) is the minimum width for the adjacent graded area; although a 3 -foot (0.92 m) width clearance should be provided from trees, poles, walls, fences, guardrails, etc. or their lateral obstructions whenever possible. In instances where trees or other obstacles may encroach within this space, warning signage should be provided. A 5 -foot (1.8 m) lateral separation is desirable from any embankment that the cyclist would have difficulty encountering. If this is not possible, a positive barrier such as dense shrubbery, safety railing, walls, or fencing shall be provided. All barrier material shall conform to City of Allen standards. 1.3 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I d. Design Speed —Trails intended for bicycle usage should be designed for a selected speed that is at least as high as the preferred speed of the fastest anticipated cyclist. In general, a minimum design speed of 20 mph (32 kmlh) should be used when trail grades do not exceed 5%. It is the intent of the Plan to design accessible routes linking all destinations and nodes within the city. It is at the discretion of the city to allow for the creation of alternate routes to destinations that may exceed those standards established by ADA. In those instances where strong prevailing tail winds exist or trail grades may exceed 5%, a design speed of 30 mph (48 km/h) is advisable. Speed bumps or similar surface obstructions intended to slow down cyclists which would pose a trip hazard for other trail users should never be used. e. Soft surface paths and trails are not to be used by cyclists because of the damage to unpaved surfaces. f. Horizontal Alignment & Superelevation — The minimum radius of curvature negotiable by a bicycle is a function of the Superelevation rate of the trail surface, and the speed of the bicycle. The minimum design radius of curvature can be derived from the following formula: R=V' 15 (e + f) Where: R = Minimum radius of curvature (ft) V = Design speed e = Rate of superelevation f = Coefficient of friction TABLE 1: Minimum Radii for Paved Bicycle Paths Design Speed Friction Factor (1 MPH=1.6 km/hr) (1 ft.=0.3 m) 20 0.27 25 0.25 30 0.22 35 0.19 40 0.17 Trails shall not exceed a 2% cross -slope. The city may allow for the construction of additional and alternate routes that exceed the standards established within ADA, provided however, the super -elevation does not exceed a 5% slope. Minimum radius varies depending on cross slope. The coefficient of friction depends upon speed, surface type, roughness, and condition, type and tire condition, and whether the surface is wet or dry. Friction factors used for design should be selected based upon the point at which centrifugal force causes the bicyclist to recognize a feeling of discomfort and instinctively act to avoid higher speed. Extrapolating values used in highway design, design friction factors for paved bicycle paths are assumed to vary from 0.30 at 15 mph (24 km/h) to 0.22 at 30 mph (48 km/h). Friction factors shall be reduced by 50% on unpaved surfaces and in areas likely to be wet, shaded, etc. 1.4 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I When curves of lesser radii than those recommended must be used on bicycle paths because of limited right-of-way, topographical or other considerations, standard curve warning signs and supplemental pavement Figure 4.

It is advisable to widen the path in order to increase the lateral space available to cyclists as they lean to the inside of the tum (see Figure 4). The amount of widening should be limited to a maximum of 4 feet (1.2 m). g. Grade — Longitudinal gradients on trails shall not exceed 5% except in unusual circumstances. Alternate routes with grades over 5% and less than 500 feet (152.5 m) are acceptable only when a higher design speed or additional width is provided. In cases where the minimum grade must be exceeded, an alternate trail route must be constructed providing ADA accessibility. The absolute maximum gradient for a trail intended for bike usage is 8%. Sustained grades are ideally limited to 2% for multipurpose trails. Grades steeper than 3% should not be used with crushed stone surfaces. Grades of up to 5% are acceptable for bridges with 10 It (3 m) shoulders or paths where a leveling off at the base of the incline permits adequate recovery before an intersection or other conflict point. h. Sight Distance - Figure 5 indicates the minimum stopping sight distance for various design speeds and grades based on a total perception and brake reaction time of 2.5 seconds and a coefficient of friction of 0.25 to account for the poor wet weather braking characteristics of many bicycles. For two-way shared use paths, the sight distance in the descending direction, that is, where "G" is negative, will control the design. Use Figure 6 to select the minimum length of vertical curve necessary to provide minimum stopping sight distance at various speeds on crest vertical curves.

Figure 7 indicates the minimum clearance that should be used to line of sight obstructions for horizontal curves. The lateral clearance is obtained by entering Figure 7 with the stopping sight distance for Figure 5 and the proposed horizontal radius of curvature. W ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIXI Cyclists frequently ride abreast of each other on trails. On narrow trails cyclists have a tendency to ride near the middle of the path. For these Figure 6.

Where this is not possible or feasible, consideration should be given to widening the path through the curve, installing a non-skid yellow center stripe, installing a "curve ahead" warning sign in accordance with the MUTCD (Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices), or a combination of these alternatives. 1.7 •.M MH x.•.4iii.x CC.

The length of cross culverts should be extended to include the clear zone as well as the path width, and should be backfilled to provide an uninterrupted dear zone. Drainage grates and manhole covers should be located outside of the travel path of bicyclists. To assist in draining the area adjacent to the trail, the design should include considerations for preserving the natural ground cover. Seeding, mulching, and sodding of adjacent slopes, swales, and other erosion -prone areas shall accompany trail construction and shall be implemented by the trail builder. Where trails pass underneath highway bridges, existing deck drain discharges must be routed or reconstructed so that deck runoff will not discharge upon or flow across the bike path. Deck drainage can create ice and algae on the pavement as well as erode the pavement surface. B. Soft Surface Trails Design Objectives • Materials should provide a stable surface and remain relatively dry • Color should be earthtone to blend with the natural environment and to minimize visual impact • Design for wheelchair accessibility wherever practical, with trail widths no less than 36 inches. In cases where a 36 -inch wide trail is designed, ensure that the adequate wheelchair passing areas are provided per ADA standards. • Minimize erosion of surface material at side drainage locations to limit washing, i.e., provide concrete pans or other erosion mitigating devices as approved by the city. 2. Design Standards a. Prepared Sub -grade — Compact on-site material where approved by the City Engineer. Over -excavate if unstable sub -soils are encountered and replace with city -approved fill material. Compact all fill areas to 95% standard proctor -2% to +4% optimum. Remove all topsoil prior to subgrade preparation. The use of a geotextile fabric under the aggregate fines where installed in wet or unstable areas is recommended b. Trail Surface — 3/8 inch diameter crushed and compacted aggregate fines, such a crushed or decomposed granite with adequate binder, minimum 6 inch depth. C. Width & Clearance — Standard width for two-way trails is 8 feet with a minimum width of 36 inches. ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I ADEOUAT 511 ER Figure 9. Typical Gravel Fines d. Grade, Sight Distance, Drainage — Refer to Design Objectives and Standards for Hard Surface Trails. C. Pedestrian Bridges And Low Water Crossings Design Objectives Trail crossings over creeks and drainage ways generally shall be by bridge. Prefabricated bridges require approval by the city. Bridges shall be of arched - truss design if in compliance with ADA longitudinal slope criteria. The minimum width of clear deck is 10 feet. All bridge foundation and abutment designs shall be sealed by a Texas professional engineer and approved by the city. . Design bridges that are sturdy, safe, vandal -resistant, and easily maintained: o Deck with good skid resistance o Stabilize deck to minimize vibrations o Railing should be free of splinters and provide a smooth, clean surface to the touch o Railing design should allow views to creeks for persons of all heights, yet prevent anyone from falling through o Scale of bridge should be in keeping with its surroundings 1.10 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I • Bridge color should blend with the natural environment or tie into the color scheme of adjacent development • Integrate design with other elements throughout the corridor • Low water crossings may be used at small stream crossings with the approval of the Parks and Recreation Department.

Secondary Trail head Related Improvements a. Lighting 1. Design Objectives a. Lighting for trails is important and should be considered where riding at night is expected. Fixed -source lighting reduces conflicts along paths and at intersections. In addition, lighting allows the cyclist to see the trail alignment, surface conditions, 1.17 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX I and obstacles. All trail intersections and the intersection of trails with public streets should be illuminated in such a way that cyclists and motorists have ample opportunity to see and react to the intersection. Lighting shall be provided throughout entire lengths of underpasses or tunnels. Lighting should also be provided wherever there is signage, particularly warning signs. 2. Design Standards a. Lighting standards along public streets should meet or exceed those established by code. Parking lots and trail intersections shall be lighted to a minimum of %, footcandle with metal halide fixture and no spillover to adjacent property, but parking areas should be sufficiently illuminated to meet security concerns. Approaches to intersections and trail underpasses shall be lit to provide one-half to one continuous, unbroken footcandle of illumination on the trail or path surface. b. Retaining Walls Design Objectives Retaining walls should be functionally efficient at the scale of the trail user and should: Incorporate interest, texture, and detail in the design where feasible. Be terraced if over 4 feet in height. Terraced walls may provide seating, viewing, and a separation of the path from adjacent development, etc. Walls that provide seating should be separated from the mainstream Flow of traffic. Seating areas should be situated at points of visual interest. 2. Design Standards Figure 17 shows typical construction.

The TIA is intended to ensure adequate review and consideration of potential impacts of proposed development on the surrounding thoroughfare and local street system. The City of Allen requires that TIAs be performed for both zoning requests and site plan processes. TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS A. Acceptable Level of Service A Level of Service "C" is the design objective for the City of Allen. A TIA must attempt to identify sufficient transportation improvements to achieve or maintain a Level of Service "C" or better. B. Study Area The minimum transportation impact study area shall include the entire neighborhood plus any neighborhood that abuts or is adjacent to the proposed development. C. Contents Specific report requirements may vary depending on the site location and characteristics, geographic area, and size and type of development. However, each TIA must clearly state all assumptions and methodologies, and contain at a minimum, the following: 1. Transportation System a. Vicinity map that relates the site location to the thoroughfare and local street system. b. Thoroughfare designation according to the City of Allen Thoroughfare Plan. c. Number of roadway lanes, lane widths, and right-of-way widths. d. Traffic signal locations. 2. Land Uses a. Existing and proposed (if applicable) land use characteristics for the subject site. b. Number of acres (gross and net) classified by zoning and density. c. Approximate gross square footage of existing and proposed structures. D. Background Traffic Existing Conditions: 1. Current traffic counts (both average daily traffic and morning and afternoon peak hours) on thoroughfares and collectors around the site shall be collected for the TIA and the counts shall be not more than one year old. The City's most current annual traffic counts may be used for the TIA if available. 2. Turning movements at critical intersections should be collected for the intersection's analysis. LA ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE APPENDIX L 3. For proposed new developments, if the site will be built in the future year, projected growing traffic volume, calculated by using a growth factor, between the current year and a tentative built year should be added to the current traffic counts. The growth factor will be determined by the City based on historical data from the City's annual counts. Projected Buildout Assumptions: 1. Projected traffic volume for build -out scenarios will be provided by the City by using the results from TranPlan model completed by North Central Texas Council of Government for Collin County 2020 Long Range Transportation Plan update. 2. Projected traffic volume for the streets, which were not included in TranPlan model analyses, should be calculated by using a growth factor. The growth factor will be provided by the City based on historical data from the City's annual counts. E. Site Traffic: Trip Generation 1. Assume full development and occupancy. 2. Show in tabular form the land use components, the trip generation rates (daily and peak hour), and total trips generated by land use types. 3. Use the latest Trip Generation Manual published by Institute of Transportation Engineers. 4. No passer-by trip reductions allowed. Capacity Analysis 1. Separate maps illustrating traffic volumes for different scenarios: a. Non -site traffic projections for design year (ADT and AM/PM peak hour turning movements); b. Development traffic (ADT and AM/PM peak hour turning movements); and, c. Non -site traffic plus development traffic for design year (ADT and AMIPM peak hour turning movements). 2. Capacity analysis of roadway links shall be performed for the ultimate design. Identify level of service with and without development site traffic. If the roadway links exhibit a LOS D, E, or F, then intersection analyses will need to be performed for those facilities. G. Mitigation of Impacts: 1. Identification of actions or alternatives required to maintain an acceptable level of service on the street system. Candidate actions include: a. Roadway link and intersection improvements. b. New or modified traffic signals. c. Access locations and driveway design. d. Transportation system management programs. e. Neighborhood traffic deviators/oontrols. 2. Site plans or preliminary engineering plans for all thoroughfares, local streets, and intersection improvements must as a minimum conform to the requirements of the City's Land Development Code. L.2 ALLEN LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE r_'19»2 -1KfR H. If the proposal is significantly revised by the Commission and/or City Council, then revised traffic figures must be generated in order to comply with the final recommendation. I. If the proposed development or zoning change generates less than 1,000 average daily trips, the City's Traffic Engineer may waive the requirement. J. The traffic impact analysis shall be completed by a registered professional engineer with a background in traffic engineering. Supp. No. 1 (1939-5-01) L.3
