March 5, 1958 Fort Collins Planning and Zoning Board Fort Collins, Colorado Gentlemen: Reference is made to a letter addressed to your Board by Ur. John J. Nicol of Fort Collins dated February 26, 1958. • The personnel at this institution who are responsible for the planning and construction of physical facilities will be very pleased to discuss with your Board problems of university expansion which may be related to activities of the Planning and Zoning Board. The news item referred to by Mr. Nicol taken from the Rocky Mountain Collegian is not entirely accurate in that it indicates plans for university housing units in the relatively near future. Construction of married housing units is a matter of some concern in view of the high percentage of married students. However, there have been no definite plans made for such construction nor has any timetable been developed. The preliminary planning that has been done in connection with this matter has taken into account the problem of student parking in relation to traffic on Shields Street. Whenever, in the future, plans for married student housing should become definitely formulated, we will be pleased to discuss them with your Board. Very sincerely, Is/ Lowell H. Watts Lowell H.

Tadlock that land owned by him in Section 10, Township 7 North, Range 69 1?est, "be zoned in the "D" Commercial Zone upon its annexation" to the City has been studied by me, Air. Tadlock has not indicated to me that he has contacted the Carter Oil Company to find out their thinking with regard to the zoning of their land. My recommendation to you with regards to this matter at this time is that the area not be zoned as a "D" Commercial District. The reason for this is that it is spot zoning. Further, it has not been shown how this zoning will aid in carrying out the intent of the Zoning Ordinance nor has it been shown how this zoning will carry out the purposes for Zoning as set forth in the State Statutes.
