San Bellino Driveway is located on the east side of 83rd Avenue approximately 900 feet south
of Glendale Avenue. The driveway primarily serves vehicles traveling to/from the existing
San Bellino Apartments.

The existing Mobile Home Park Driveway is located on the south side of Glendale Avenue
roughly 920 feet west of 83rd Avenue. The driveway exclusively serves vehicles traveling
to/from the existing Shamrock Mobile Home Park.

The intersection of 83rd Avenue/Glendale Avenue is a four-leg, signalized intersection.
Eastbound vehicles are provided with an exclusive left turn lane, three through lanes, and an
exclusive right turn lane. Westbound traffic is offered an exclusive left turn lane, two through
lanes, and a shared through/right turn lane. Northbound and southbound traffic make use of an
exclusive left turn lane, one through lane, and a shared through/right turn lane. All approaches
to the intersection are offered protected/permitted left turn phasing.

San Bellino Driveway/83rd Avenue is a three-leg, unsignalized intersection. Westbound
vehicles leaving the San Bellino Apartments are STOP controlled and provided an exclusive
left turn lane and a dedicated right turn lane. Northbound traffic approaching the intersection
are given two through lanes and a dedicated right turn lane, while southbound vehicles make
use of two through lanes and an exclusive left turn lane (within the two-way center left turn
lane).

Mobile Home Park Driveway/Glendale Avenue is three-leg, unsignalized intersection.
Eastbound traffic approaching the intersection are offered a dedicated left turn lane, two
through lanes and shared through/right turn lane, while westbound vehicles are provided an
exclusive left turn lane and three through lanes. Northbound traffic leaving the Shamrock
Mobile Home Park are STOP controlled and given an exclusive left turn lane and a dedicated
right turn lane.

The existing study intersection locations, lane configurations, and intersection control are
shown in Figure 4.

Access

The RV Resort site will be served by one proposed access point from 83rd Avenue and a
proposed ‘emergency access’ drive on Glendale Avenue.

North Access will be located on the south side of Glendale Avenue, west of the Commercial
Driveway, located approximately 650 feet west of 83rd Avenue. North Access is expected to
provide emergency only access.

Glendale AZ RV Resort is expected to construct a new west leg to align with the existing
intersection of San Bellino Driveway/83rd Avenue. Eastbound and westbound vehicles leaving
the minor approaches will be STOP controlled and provided an exclusive left turn lane and
dedicated right turn lane. Northbound traffic approaching the intersection will utilize an
exclusive left turn lane (within the two-way center left turn lane), two through lanes and a
dedicated right turn lane, while southbound vehicles will be offered an exclusive left turn lane
(within the two-way center left turn lane), one through lane and a shared through/right turn
lane.

The existing Mobile Home Park Driveway is expected to serve new vehicles trips traveling
to/from the Shamrock Mobile Home Park expansion.

The Glendale AZ RV Resort project is expected to provide a sidewalk, curb and gutter on
the west side of 83rd Avenue along the project frontage.

Figure 5 shows the locations, geometry and spacing for the study intersections that will
also serve as a baseline of analysis with the project.

Trip Generation

Trip generation was developed utilizing nationally agreed upon data contained in the
Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publication Trip Generation, 11th Edition,
2021. The Glendale AZ RV Resort project trip generation was estimated for the
construction of a 159-unit RV Resort based on ITE Land Use Code 416 (LUC 416),
Campground/Recreational Vehicle Park and a 55-lot expansion of the existing Shamrock
Mobile Home Park based on ITE LUC 240, Mobile Home Park. The combined trip
generation is shown in Table 1. The complete trip generation calculations can be found in
the Appendix.

Table 1 – Site Generated Trips

As shown in Table 1, the proposed project is expected to generate fifty-six (56) weekday
AM peak hour trips and seventy-five (75) weekday PM peak hour trips.

The eastern parcel (i.e. RV Resort Site) is currently zoned R-3 which allows for multi-
family residential development. A previous proposal to develop this site with 228
multifamily units and forty (40) townhomes was contemplated for the site. Trip generation
for this previous project plan was conducted assuming 228 multifamily units based on ITE
LUC 220, Multifamily Housing (Low-Rise) and forty (40) townhomes based on LUC 215,
Single Family Attached Housing. The result is shown below in Table 2.

Table 2 – Previously Proposed Multifamily Plan Site Generated Trips

Table 3 shows the difference in expected trip generation between the previously proposed
multifamily plan and the current Glendale AZ RV Resort project site.

Table 3 – Estimated Site Trip Generation Difference

The Glendale AZ RV Resort is expected to generate fifty-four (54) fewer weekday AM
peak hour trips and sixty-five (65) fewer PM peak hour trips when compared to the
previously proposed multi-family plan in Table 3.
