fors in <br />9 r <br />HnTITAS CLlfKii' <br />MEMORANDUM <br />DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS <br />Mark Cook, PE Director <br />TO: Kittitas County Board of County Commissioners <br />FROM: Lucas Huck P.E. County Engineer <br />0!5— <br />DATE: August 15, 2017 <br />SUBJECT: Huffman Farms Pumpkin Festival <br />Looking at the maps and parcel data provided it appears that all event parking and traffic impacts can be <br />maintained within the private property of the Huffman Farm West of the KRD canal. The access to the <br />property would come off of Wilson Creek Rd, which is a County road. The applicant would be required to <br />ensure that no unmitigated adverse impacts to the traveling public along Wilson Creek Rd will occur from <br />this proposal. With the increase in traffic entering Wilson Creek Rd from the private driveway Public <br />Works suggests that deployment of a temporary stop sign at the exit of the private drive be considered. <br />Additionally Public Works will require that a load rating is provided for the private bridge over the canal. <br />The structural capacity is unknown and verification that fire life safety equipment and public transportation <br />vehicles like busses will be supported is prudent. <br />Kittitas County Public Works would recommend approval following the applicant's narrative which <br />indicates the event parking, and traffic control will take place on private property in a manor to not <br />adversely affect public rights of way. <br />Please feel free to contact Kittitas County Public Works with any additional questions you may have at <br />509-962-7523. <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />411 N.
