1.0 - Signage and
Wayﬁnding
Manual
Introduction:
6

Foothills
Foothills Park and Recreation District (FHPRD) is developing this manual to provide consistent
signage and wayfinding throughout our parks. Our signs will direct and inform the public on what is
allowed within the perimeters of Foothill’s Parks, give a positive impression of our parks, and enhance
our wayfinding methods. This manual will provide the reader or user: a sample inventory of existing
signs, future plans and placement of signs, regulations to follow, standards and guidelines created in
the decision-making phase, FHPRD sign catalog, and the establishment process.
1.1 - Purpose and Need
The purpose of this Manual is to provide FHPRD a way to track new and replaced signs for warranty
purposes and to understand a sign’s life span, develop signage standards and guidelines, develop a
sign catalog to maintain consistent signs throughout our parks, and develop solutions for cost effec-
tiveness, maintenance purposes, and maintain aesthetic values. This manual will guide the reader or
user through the process of replacing and / or placing new signs; which includes purpose and place-
ment of each sign, approval process for signs, sign number in sign catalog, prices and vendor infor-
mation, and the installation process.
Other sign objectives are to:
1. Provide positive impressions of our parks to create neighborhood engagement
2. Educate visitors about regulations and safety concerns
3. Acknowledge visitors of their location and how to wayfind throughout our parks
4. Control park usage to create a safer, more enjoyable, environmentally friendly experience
The objective is to balance the aesthetic considerations of our parks to avoid “sign pollution.”
The Signage and Wayfinding Manual informs FHPRD of the existing signs, existing sign conditions,
identifies the needs of signs, and the need of wayfinding through our parks. FHPRD needs a struc-
tured Manual with an efficient method to achieve an effective process to establish new or replace
signs, and create methods of wayfinding throughout our Foothill’s Parks.
This manual :
1. Provides an sample inventory of our existing signs.
2. Establishes the issues for our existing signs.
3. Provides regulations, codes, and policies for signs.
4. Provides design standards and guidelines developed by FHPRD Maintenance and Planning
1.0 - Signage and Wayfinding Manual Introduction:

Team.
5. Provides a Sign Catalog approved by FHPRD Maintenance and Planning Team.
6. Describes the sequence of signs throughout our parks.
7. Identifies the types of signs in each sequential phase.
8. Identifies the purpose and placement of signs in each sequential phase.
9. Describes the installation process for signs.
10. Describes the maintenance needs.
1.2 - Funding
Fundings for signs will be issued and reviewed by FHPRD. Funding will be provided by the FHPRD,
grants, or the public who has issued a sign approval application through Jefferson County.
Section 3.0 and Section 7.0 provides the process of the sign approval approach.
1.3 - Manual Review
A periodic review of this manual should be performed by FHPRD.
1.4 - Sign Maintenance
FHPRD Maintenance Department will properly position, maintain, and update all new placements or
replacements of signs throughout our parks. This Manual will provide the maintenance staff the
ordering process, placement and mounting of the sign, type of sign, and the installation process.
1.5 - Sign Plan Approval
Any sign approvals must by approved by Jefferson County.
1.6 - Procurement Process
A variety of vendors will be used for Foothills Parks and Recreation signage.
1.7 - Data Bases
Any new or replacement of sign will be updated into FHPRD GIS data base after Section 6.0 for new
signage and wayfinding methods has been completed.

2.0 - Inventory of 2015 Signage
2.1 - Existing Signage Inventory Description: This section of the manual describes the
collection process of existing signs, what information was found about our existing signs, and a
sample of existing signs in various parks. The collection process informs the reader or user who
collected the data, how data information was collected, and what data information was collected.
The research collected and information found helped develop and support the standards and guide-
lines of this manual “Design Standards and Guidelines Section.” The standards and guidelines will
increase the consistency of signs throughout our parks, and consistent sign and post layouts.
The following pages provide a sample of the existing signs at our parks, which includes:
- A Map of the Park illustrating:
- Roadways
- Pathways
- Destinations
- Placement of: trees, benches, trash cans, playgrounds, picnic shelters, multi-ﬁelds,
court yards, wetlands, creeks, and signs
- Type of: trees and signs
- Surrounding community: commercial buildings, residential houses, undeveloped
land, etc.
- The Address of the Park
- Type of Park
- Primary and Secondary Roadway Names
- The Parks Environment describe the surrounding community, the park’s acreage, the park’s
landscape, and types of destinations to visit at the park.
- Description of Sign Types and Placement in Each Sequential Phase: Research
shows the placement of signs are inconsistent, and sparely located throughout each park.
There are three phases that an individual would approach a sign at a speciﬁc moment
throughout the park. These types of sequential phase in this manual are:
Signs into Park - Signs located at the entry points of a park or the perimeter of the
park.
10

Foothills
Signs along Pathway - These signs would be located along a walk-through path
ways through the park.
Signs at Destination - These signs would be placed at destination points, which
would be a place of interest.
- Photos demonstrating the existing sign conditions and locations.
- Diagram of sign location.
- Type of Sign at location
- Height of a Sign on a Post (H)
- Height and Width of Sign (HW)
- The Distance of a Sign to the Sidewalk (SW)
- The Distance of a Sign to the Street (ST)
The research collected was analyzed to inform our maintenance and planning staff that Foothill’s
Park and Recreation needs to address their signage and wayfinding methods.
2.2 - Collection Process of Existing Signage: The signage and wayfinding data collection
informs FHPRD of the pro and cons of our existing sign conditions. The existing signage gives us an
insight on what signs are achieving or failing in from our existing signage and wayfinding methods.
Our findings inform us of:
- FHPRD wayfinds through our signs.
- Inconsistent types of sign from park to park.
- Sign placement is inconsistent at entry point, along pathways, and at destinations.
- Lack of purpose in sign placement.
- Damage or unreadable signs.
- Inconsistent sign and post layout.
- Varying sign and post heights.

2.0 - Inventory of 2015 Signage
- Lacking aesthetic values in signage with the park’s scenery.
Below describes the details of the data collection process of signs for this manual’s existing inven-
tory. This research will help structure standards and designs for our signage and wayfinding meth-
ods.
Who:
FHPRD collected the existing conditions of signs within various park to complete this manual’s inven-
tory data. Updating this manual is recommend to inform FHPRD the latest version of our signs.
GPS Data Collection:
The location of signs were collected by a GPS, and then documented in FHPRD GIS database for
storage. GPS data collected informs us of a sign’s location, location of trees that might effect a sign
conditions, and identifies potential sign or wayfinding placements needs.
Measurement Data Collection:
Measurement documentation gives FHPRD the opportunity to compare and contrast signs from a
pedestrian and driver perspectives. The height of a sign effects ones experience before entering a
park and within the setting of the park. The placement of a sign makes the sign have a purpose for its
location to a pedestrian or driver.
Picture Data Collection:
Picture documentation informs FHPRD of the conditions of each sign and takes into consideration
the needs of our future signs. The condition of each sign informs us of why and how a sign came to
be. The conditions that are taken into consideration for our future sign includes:
- What is the sign’s foundation?
concrete structure, T-post
- What is the surrounding landscape of the foundation?
xeriscape, flower bed landscaped, grass landscaped
- What type of landscape maintenance does the sign need?
spray weed killer on xeriscaping
maintains flower bed
weed whack landscape around foundation

adjacent to the parking spaces state “dancing willow guest or resident parking only,” which is
confusing because it is a public park. Dancing Willows HOA maintains these signs, and a
discussion should be put into place about their layout and purpose of their signs.
MUTCD Trafﬁc Sign: A yield sign is located at the southeast edge of the park adjacent
to the round-about.
Pedestrian Signs:
Rule Sign: Two 18”x12” rule signs are adjacent to the primary pedestrian pathway. A
rule sign is placed at the western entry for visitors approaching from Mossbrucker Park or the
two parking spaces. The eastern rule sign is placed at the focal point off the primary and
secondary access pathways. Both signs are cracking making the sign difﬁcult to read.
Dog Sign: One 9”x14” dog on leash sign is located at the western entry beneath a rule sign.
Dog Sign: Two dog signs are located around the edge of Dancing Willows Lake. One dog sticker
sign is located on a dog waste dispenser beneath a rule sign on the east side of the park.
Warning Sign: Four 18”x12” warning signs have been placed around the edge of Dancing Willows
Lake about thin ice; however, these signs warn visitors and don not reinforce the regulations.
No signs at park destinations.

visitors from the nearby subdivision and meeting community-based recreational needs. This park
approximately total is 10.05 acres; containing a playground, two picnic shelter, and two multi-use

trees sparely scattered.
Signs into Park:
Vehicle Signs:
Main Entry Sign: Entry sign is visible at the intersection of S Queen St and W Coal Mine Ave.
The entry sign is southwest facing with sun-damaged paint. The main entry is larger than other

ADA Sign - Two handicap signs are located closest to the walk-through pathway entrance
and multi-use ﬁelds.
MUTCD Regulatory Sign - Three “No Parking” signs are located on the primary roadway due
to MUTCD purposes.
MUTCD Warning Sign - Pedestrian signs are located at the cross way of the primary roadway,
the playground entrances, and at the beginning of the walk-through pathway.
Bus Sign - A bus stop is located at the southeast corner of the park, which Foothills could use
to their advantage by bringing other visitors in our park by other methods of transportation.
Pedestrian Signs:
Rule and Dog Sign - Two 18”x12” rule sign with dog signs below have be placed at the
entrance of walk-through pathways. The placement of the 18”x12” rule sign and dog sign at
the northeast corner of the parking lot is odd. If there are already rule signs at the walk-through
pathway entrance, the placement of the 3’x2’ rule sign along the primary roadway is unneces-

warn the public about rapid water could be present. The sign is mounted on plywood, which will
absorb water passing through to the creek, and the sign will break down over time. Thin ice signs are
mounted in the interchangeable sign frames, which are to be exchange in the summer with a “No
Wading, Swimming, Ice Skating, Boating” Sign. The maintenance staff don’t do this, and the sign
frame is corroding away. A “No Wading, Swimming, Ice Skating, Boating” sign is located across the
pond, which is unreadable to passing visitors. A “Warning Rapidly Rising Water “ sign is unreadable
on the south side of the stream unless you are within the protected environment.

entrance to the parking lot. The roadway entrance to the parking lot as allowed drivers
to somehow hit our main entry sign.
Parking Sign: “No Parking Between Signs” have been placed along the south edge of the
park due to visitors parking on the grass and sidewalk. There is an area with limited-time park
ing off Ken Caryl Ave. The 10 minute parking area was put in place for drivers to drop-off
people at the top of the hill to go sledding. “No Parking Beyond This Point” signs are located
on the southeast corner of the parking lot due to visitors driving on our pedestrian / bicycle
pathway, which provided sliders easier physical work and saved time.
Transportation Sign: A bus stop is located on the southeast side of the park that Foothills
could use to their advantage. A bike route is located on the east side pathway, which Jeffco
County is promoting this path in their Jeffco Bikeway Wayfinding Master Plan (Spring 2016).

vehicles and the other for any vehicle. Signs are mandatory by law.
MUTCD Traffic and Warning Sign: There is an assortment of traffic signs within the Ken Caryl

nal roadways, and next to the parks perimeter.

been placed at the northwest corner of the park and closest to the neighborhoods.
Pedestrian Signs:
