The entity or entities making these design approach determinations will be critical!

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 10:18AM on page 28

Same comment regarding depressed bike lanes next to parking

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 10:13AM on page 8

Suggestion
Would like to see some specific mention on providing youth safe access to schools and parks.

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 10:00AM on page 26

Consider bike lane at sidewalk level when adjacent to parking - otherwise it's an accessibility barrier and tripping hazard

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 9:44AM on page 9

Recommend language that requires a public access easement or ROW dedication where there is not enough ROW to meet the pedestrian standards (which will often be the case)

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 9:37AM on page 8

Just to be clear to the average reader, I would emphasize that "all modes of transportation" includes bikes, pedestrians, transit, etc.

Michael Huston May 4 2026 at 9:31AM on page 10

Recommend a discussion about what "appropriate LFUCG authority" makes the final determination on design and include it in the manual. Ideally, it would be a technical committee that represents a cross section of transportation representatives including vehicular, bike, pedestrian, and transit. It could also include review by a citizen's advisory committee (and/or BPAC) to make a non-binding recommendation. There will have to be compromises in nearly every street ROW, so it should not default to traffic engineering alone. This is what impedes implementation in many complete streets plans.

Suggestion
Is 10' of horizontal separation from the dripline or the trunkline?

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:38AM on page 106

Suggestion
Undergrounding electric utilities involves significant cost. While underground facilities provide important benefits, KU is obligated by the Public Service Commission to meet customer demand using the most reasonable and least‑cost means available to maintain affordability. As a result, KU selectively undergrounds facilities where such investments are prudent and justified.

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:36AM on page 104

Suggestion
KU facilities are best located in frontage / amenity / planting strip zones for long-term reliability, resiliency, and maintenance of assets. Accessibility is critical for electric infrastructure. What is an "open space" behind buildings today may not be open in the future.

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:30AM on page 56

Suggestion
Electric utilities will need safe access to facilities.

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:26AM on page 51

Suggestion
Electric utilities will need access to public ROW to feed pedestrian/street lights. Note: any requested changes to KU's lighting options would require PSC approval.

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:22AM on page 50

Question
Are there maximum height limitations as well?

Jeffrey Poston Apr 23 2026 at 9:18AM on page 46

Question
For existing overhead electric assets located within the PAR, will utilities be granted permits for relocation of assets to amenity zone / vegetated buffer for retrofits?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:11PM on page 204

Suggestion
Should include a blank line between these paragraphs.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:11PM on page 202

Question
Should this include something about design for curb cuts or anything specific for Green Infrastructure?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:09PM on page 201

Question
Should the 3 statements following this colon be bulleted?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:07PM on page 194

Question
Report or Manual?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:07PM on page 194

Question
Cited as LFUCG Geotechnical Manual in 8.2.1.3. Is it the same?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:06PM on page 194

Suggestion
Period at the end.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:05PM on page 193

Suggestion
Needs an additional blank line between these two paragraphs.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 5:00PM on page 165

Suggestion
The headings Design Guidance and Design Requirements are formatted differently in this chapter than the previous 5 chapters.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:55PM on page 179

Question
Why is this highlighted?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:52PM on page 168

Suggestion
The information in these bullets should end in a period. Currently, only the last bullet follows that format.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:50PM on page 158

Suggestion
Resources are bolded in other chapters.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:49PM on page 157

Suggestion
In the other sections, these bullets have capital letters to start the info in the bullet.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:47PM on page 152

Suggestion
This is the only bullet in this group without a period.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:47PM on page 152

These sub-bullets shouldn't have periods at the end.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:46PM on page 151

Suggestion
All the other bullets have a period at the end.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:46PM on page 150

Suggestion
Inconsistent period use. Present on 1 and 5, but not the others.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:45PM on page 148

Suggestion
Design Requirements shouldn't be a bullet. It should mimic the format of Location Standards.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:44PM on page 148

Question
Why are these underlined?

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:43PM on page 146

The Location Standards all have periods at the end of the bulleted information, but the Design Requirements don't.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:41PM on page 144

Suggestion
This is the only bullet with a period.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:40PM on page 143

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:36PM on page 133

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:34PM on page 129

Suggestion
Since these are multiple sentence bullets, they should end in a period. #4 is the only one with a period at the end currently.

Paulette Akers Apr 22 2026 at 4:29PM on page 124

Suggestion
Inconsistent hyphenation of left-turn lane. Either add hyphens where noted or they need to be removed in a variety of places.
