Address:
Petitioner/Owner:
Zoning District:
Code Section:
Project Description:
6515 Westchase Court
Robert Smith
U-E
4.2(0)(2)( d)
The variance would reduce the side setback from 20 feet to 10 feet along the west property line and
from 20 feet to 14 feet along the east property line in order to construct a new single family residence.
Staff Presentation:
Beals showed slides relevant to appeal and noted the setback would be consistent with other
properties in the area. Additionally, Beals noted this neighborhood was developed while still in the
county and later annexed into the City.
Zoning Board of Appeals Pagel February 12, 2015
Applicant Presentation:
Brian Shear, Shear Engineering, 4636 South College, provided two letters of support from neighbors.
He stated he has investigated the other houses in the area and determined at least one neighbor has
been through a similar ZBA variance process. As this is the final house to be built on the cul-de-sac,
this setback variance would allow the house to be set further forward to be more in line with the
existing houses. Additionally, Shear noted the neighbors' views would be impeded should the
setbacks be met.
Audience Participation: None
Board Discussion:
Bello stated this variance would be nominal and inconsequential given the context of the
neighborhood. Long stated the estate feel of the development would be better met given the setback
variances. Shuff agreed and stated meeting the Code would be a detriment.
Bello made a motion, seconded by Shuff, to approve Appeal No. 2792 for the following
reasons: the granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public good, a reduced
setback on both sides will allow the house to meet the contextual front setback of the cul-de
sac, two of the other three homes on the cul-de-sac have side setbacks of ten feet; therefore
the variance request will not diverge from the standards exce-pt in a nominal and
Inconsequential way when considered In the context of the neighborhood and will continue to
advance the purpose of the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
Yeas: Stockover, Long, Bello, Shuff and Shields. Nays: none.
THE MOTION CARRIED.
2. APPEAL # 2793 - Approved
Address:
Petitioner/Owner:
Zoning District:
Code Section:
Project Description:
363 Pascal Street
Andrew Rauch
C-C-N
3.5.2(E)(3)
The variance would allow an alley accessed attached garage to continue to be built upon a
foundation that was installed 9 inches into the required 8 foot rear yard setback and 8 foot utility and
access easement.
Bello withdrew from the discussion of this item due to a conflict of interest.
Staff Presentation:
Beals showed slides relevant to appeal and noted, though the Board has approved similar variances
in the area, this situation differs in that the builder who poured the foundation is the same person
seeking the variance. Beals stated the foundation was poured 9 inches into the easement at one
corner and tapers down to a zero encroachment at the other corner. Additionally, he noted the other
side of the alley is HOA open land and the view of the encroachment is not all that noticeable from
the alley. He noted the easement will need to be vacated prior to the issuance of a certificate of
occupancy.
Stockover asked if the other properties have received easement vacations. Beals replied the
applications have at least been received by the Engineering Department.
Shuff noted the house has already been framed and requested information regarding the typical
process. Beals replied this property was granted a partial building permit and an ILC must be
presented to receive a full building permit. In this case, the 9 inch encroachment was discovered as
part of the ILC and the City either requires a correction or variance.
Deputy City Attorney Eckman asked if a stop work order has been issued. The applicant replied in
the negative.
Zoning Board of Appeals Page3 February 12, 2015
Applicant Presentation:
Andrew Rauch, 345 East Mountain Avenue, FR Development contractor and property owner,
provided the Board with additional photographs of the property. He noted, though the general
contractor is ultimately responsible, the foundation was poured out of square by a subcontractor.
Additionally, he stated there did not appear to be any utilities other than Gomcast in the easement.
Shuff asked if a stop work order had been issued. Rauch replied in the negative but stated
construction has slowed drastically given the cost of the project thus far.
Long asked for a description of the process necessary to fix the foundation problem. Rauch replied
the entire house would need to be deconstructed but noted the vertical wall of the house only
encroaches three or four inches into the setback.
Stockover asked about the soil conditions in the area. Rauch replied the entire subdivision was filled
and the houses on this side of the subdivision were built up because of the high water table and have
no basements.
Stockover asked when the error was discovered. Rauch replied the framer discovered the mistake
and the supervisor of the project hid the mistake and has since been dismissed.
Audience Participation: None
Board Discussion:
Stockover noted getting the foundation poured correctly is quite important on smaller lots; however,
this variance seems to be inconsequential.
Shuff agreed and noted the issue was clearly a mistake and not intentional. Additionally, the vertical
wall of the house will only be approximately 4 inches into the easement. However, Shuff stressed the
importance of properly pouring the foundations particularly on small lots.
Deputy City Attorney Eckman requested the Board provide a date certain by which the easement
vacation should occur.
Shuff suggested the easement should be vacated prior to the certificate of occupancy.
Stockover asked if this is a spec home. Rauch replied in the affirmative and noted the full building
permit was already issued for the project.
Stockover asked what would occur should the easement not be vacated. Beals replied the variance
is conditional upon the easement vacation; therefore a CO could not be issued should the easement
not be vacated.
Shuff made a motion, seconded by Long, to approve Appeal No. 2793 deeming that the
variance request Is not detrimental to the public good, the greatest point of the encroachment
is 9 inches and does not extend the entire length of the building, nine Inches Is only 9% of the
entire 8 foot setback, the other side ·of the alley is open space and not another residential
property; therefore the variance request will diverge from the standard in a nominal and
inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood and would continue
to advance the purpose of the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2. Additionally, the
approval Is conditional upon the vacation of the utility easement for the portion of the building
encroaching into said easement prior to the issuance of a CO. Yeas: Stockover, Long, Shuff
and Shields. Nays: none.

4.2(D)(2)( d)
Zoning Board of Appeals Page4 February 12, 2015
Project Description:
The variance would allow a 91 square foot addition to be constructed 7 feet 5 inches into the required
20 foot side setback.
Staff Presentation:
Beals showed slides relevant to the appeal and noted the neighborhood was originally developed in
the county prior to being annexed and a portion of the house already encroaches into the setback.
Applicant Presentation:
Rick Emery, Ridgetop Builders, stated the Wingfields have lived in this house for 25 years and this
expansion would allow for additional ground level living without the need for too much stair travel.
Audience Participation: None
Board Discussion:
Bello asked if the fact the owners are unable to navigate stairs is a hardship. Deputy Attorney
Eckman replied the hardship criterion is only applicable to the property itself.
Stockover suggested this variance would be nominal and inconsequential given the addition mirrors
the existing structure and there is r.�o abutting neighbor.
Bello and Shuff agreed with Stockover and stated the variance. request is likely a visual improvement.
Bello made a motion, seconded by Shuff, to approve Appeal No. 2794 for the following
reasons: the variance request is not detrimental to the public good, the existing structure
already encroaches Into the side setback and the proposed encroachment does not exceed
the distance of the existing encroachment, the requested encroachment is a single-story
addition which is 10% of the entire length of the side property line; therefore the variance will
not diverge from the standards except In a nominal and inconsequential way when considered
in the context of the neighborhood and will continue to advance the purpose of the Land Use
Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.

4. APPEAL # 2769 EXTENSION -Approved
Address:
Petitioner/Owner:
Zoning District:
Code Section:
Project Description:
331 Spinnaker Lane
Martin Johns
RL
4.4(D)(2)(b)
The owner is requesting an extension to a variance request that was approved in July. The original
project description was a request for variance to Section 4.4(D)(2)(b}, front setback. The variance
would reduce the required minimum front yard setback from 20 feet to 12 feet in order to allow the
construction of a new garage and mud room addition to replace the existing garage. The existing
garage is at a 20 foot setback and the addition will be at a 12 foot setback.
Staff Presentation:
Beals showed the originally approved plan and noted extensions are typically granted for six months.
Applicant Presentation:
Martin Johns, 331 Spinnaker Lane, stated the original architect has been dismissed and plans were
received from the new architect a week prior to the variance expiration.
Shuff asked if the plans have changed. Mr. Johns replied the design has changed but the variance
request has not changed.
Long asked if the footprint of the addition has changed. Mr. Johns replied it has changed minimally;
however, a 3 car garage is now part of the design.
Zoning Board of Appeals PageS February 12, 2015
Bello requested additional detail regarding the new plan and asked if the Board could postpone
consideration of the item in order to receive a new site plan. Deputy City Attorney Eckman stated
postponement of the extension request would not affect the timeliness of the application.
Bello expressed concern there may now be two points needing consideration rather than one.
Long noted the Board approved the 12 foot setback and this plan is still within that setback.
Shuff stated the C!esign changes are worth evaluating.
The Board held a discussion regarding the design changes and the resulting impact on the variance
approval.
Audience Participation: None
Board Discussion:
Shuff suggested the amount of encroachment could be based on the 11/24114 site plan.
Bello made a motion, seconded by Stockover, to approve the extension request for Appeal No.
2769 based on the parameters of the previous approval with the condition that the site plan
shown on the current drawings Is what is Implemented.
Yeas: Bello, Shuff, Shields, Stockover and Long. Nays: none.

PROJECT
APPEAL # 2795
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 313 W Drake Road
Petitioner/Owner: John Bender, Tommy Robinson, Marcy Mundo
Zoning District: Employment (E)
Code Section: 3.8.7(E)(8)
Variance Request:
The variance request would allow one letter in the text of the signs on both the north and east elevation to
increase in height by 6 inches from the allowed 18 inches maximum in the residential sign district, sub-area
convenience shopping center.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of variance request to allow 1 letter in the text of the signs on the north and east
side of the building to increase in height by an additional 6 inches from the maximum height of 18 inches.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
The adopted Residential Sign District map includes 2 districts, the Residential sign area and Non-
residential sign area. In the Residential Sign area there are sub-areas which include auto-related and
roadside commercial and business service uses, convenience shopping center, neighborhood service
center and neighborhood commercial district. The maximum letter and cabinet heights in each sub-
area are different.
The Residential Sign District was created to limit the impacts of commercial uses imbedded into a
residential neighborhood.
The property is located in the sub-area Convenience Shopping Center. The height maximum is 18
inches for an individual letter sign.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), Staff recommends approval of variance request to allow 1 letter in the text of
the signs on the north and east side of the building to increase in height by an additional
6 inches from the maximum height of 18 inches and finds that:
• The variance request is not detrimental to the public good.
• The requested height is an increase of 33% of the required maximum, but is only
for 1 letter of the text.
• The two signs do not face any existing residential uses.
Appeal # 2795 - Page 2
Therefore, the variance request will not diverge from the standard but in a nominal, inconsequential
way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the purpose of
the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
4. Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Appeal #2795.

Fort Collins Zoning Department
281 N. College Avenue
Fort Collins CO 80524
Dear Fort Collins Zoning Department,
Miramont Family Medicine, a Colorado corporation, and Miramont Fort Collins
LLC, owner of a commercial property location within city limits at 313 W.
Drake, Fort Collins Colorado 80526, do hereby petition the Zoning Board of
Appeals of the Fort Collins Zoning Department to grant a variance to the
residential sign Code and/or the neighborhood service center sign Code for the
newly renovated medical office building now located at 313 W. Drake in Fort
Collins.
Our proposed signage request is submitted as illustrated on an attachment to the
application form in two parts. The first is a scaled black and white version of
the signage proposal shown with the building elevations. The second is a smaller
color version to illustrate the color theme.
The variance, if granted, will better serve the public good and the intent of the
Code, as our patient population has a higher than average demographic of
disabled and elderly persons, many of whom may have difficulty orienting to the
location from the main thoroughfares (including College Avenue and the Max
Bus line) or may not be able to see signage clearly when traveling from the East
across the railroad tracks, especially in busy traffic. The tracks are an active line
and create an exceptional situation unique to the property for orienting from the
East when a train is present. We also accommodate patients after dark with
extended hours, and best meet the intent of the Code for the public good by
having lighted visibility to the North and to the East. No signage is planned nor
proposed for the South or West facings, in order to minimize any concerns from
neighboring commercial properties. There are no residential homes within
viewing distance in any direction of the building itself.
The proposal does not diverge from the Standards of the Land Use Code except
in an inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood,
which has become greatly commercialized over the past three decades.

Finally, Miramont accommodates a large low income Medicaid population (40%
of our patient load), and the proposed variance helps to ensure their public
accommodation and their ability to find the facility easily via public
transportation, including easy visibility from the Max Bus stop located 130 yards
away.

Fort Collins CO 80524
Dear Fort Collins Zoning Department,
At the guidance of Mr. Noah Beal, the following additional information is
submitted supplemental to our letter to the Zoning Department dated February
6th, 2015.
The associated zoning ordinance of the Code is section 3.8.7-E, and indicates
that this development is a Convenience Shopping Center and therefore has a
restricted letter height of 18”. Miramont Family Medicine is asking for a
variance for one and only one letter of the signage, to allow a 24” letter “M”
(see attached letter and drawings from Randy Lerich, Action Signs).
Our request is not detrimental to the public good, and in fact will enhance it for
the reasons already stated in our letter of February 6th, 2015.
Please do not hesitate to contact me by email jlbender@miramont.us or by cell
phone 970-214-0083 with any additional requests for information regarding the

The purpose of this letter is to inform you of a request for a modification of the Zoning Code of the City
of Fort Collins.
The procedure for a person requesting a modification of the Zoning Code is to make application and
appear before the Zoning Board of Appeals. This Board has been established to hear cases, where:
(1) by reason of exceptional situations or circumstances, the strict application of the regulation would
result in peculiar and practical difficulties or exceptional undue hardship upon the owner of such property;
(2) the proposal will promote the general purpose of the standard for which the variance is requested
equally well or better than would a proposal which complies with the standard for which the variance is
requested; or (3) the proposal will not diverge from the standards of the Land Use Code except in
nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, provided that the
granting of a variance would not result in a substantial detriment to the public good.
A variance of code sections:
has been requested by:
for described property:
Zoning District:
3.8. 7(E)(8)
John Bender M.D.
313 W Drake Road

The variance would allow one letter in the text of the signs on both the north and east elevation to
increase in height by 6 inches from the allowed 18 inches maximum in the residential sign district,
sub-area convenience shopping center.
This item will appear on the Zoning Board of Appeals agenda as Appeal Number: 2795
As an adjacent property owner, your input would be appropriate in the consideration of this variance
request.
The hearing on this appeal will be held at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 12, 2015 in the Council
Chambers at 300 LaPorte Ave. Those interested may appear at this meeting, or if unable to attend may

PROJECT
APPEAL # 2796
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 5108/5110 Daylight Court
Petitioner/Owner: Dave Houts
Zoning District: Urban Estates (U-E)
Code Section: 4.2(D)(2)(c)
Variance Request:
The variance would allow a new duplex to be built 5 feet 4inches into the required 25 foot rear setback.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of a new duplex to be built encroaching 5 feet and 4 inches into the required
25 foot rear yard setback on Lot 7 of the Sunrise Ridge First Filing.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
The Sunrise Ridge First Filing development was originally approved in 2006. The approval included
both a site plan and plat. The original approval allowed 7 detached single family homes and 5
duplexes totaling 17 dwelling units.
In 2012 an application for a Major Amendment was submitted. The Major Amendment included
a site plan, plat and Modification request for a reduced side yard setback for Lot 7. The revisions also
included a change in the number of detached single family homes and duplexes. All but one lot was
changed to allow either a single family or a duplex bringing the total number of possible dwelling units
to 24. The Major Amendment was approved at a public hearing. However, the final documents that
were recorded only included the site plan with and modification. The replat was never recorded.
The U-E zone district does allow for both single family detached and duplex use; each on a .5 acre lot.
Both are required to meet same minimum setbacks. The rear yard setback is 25 feet.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), Staff recommends approval of a new duplex to be built 5 feet and 4 inches
into the required 25 foot rear yard setback on Lot 7 and finds that:
• The variance is not detrimental to the public good.
• The abutting property along the rear boundary line is owned by the Larimer County
and contains a ditch, which includes a buffer area of 50 feet on either side.
• There are no structures on the abutting property.
• The distance across abutting property to the right-of-way is over a 100 feet.
Appeal # 2796 - Page 2
• The request encroaches 21% of rear setback at the maximum encroachment point.
• The encroachment tapers from the maximum point of 5 feet 4 inches to 0 feet for 25 feet
of the building.
Therefore, the variance request will not diverge from the standard but in a nominal, inconsequential
way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the purpose of
the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
4. Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Appeal #2796.

RE: Variance Request on Lot # 7 Sunrise Ridge, 5106/5108 Daylight Ct
This letter is an Application for Variance to Urban Estate’s standard rear yard setback of 25’.
Application outlines a setback of 19’-7” for a portion of the proposed duplex currently in the
City of Fort Collins Building Department’s Plan Check process.
Application for Variance specifically requests a variance of 5’-5” from Urban Estate’s standard
25’ rear yard setback to accommodate proposed duplex on Lot # 7 (Shown by enclosed Site
Plans).
History of Sunrise Ridge – In September of 2012, City of Fort Collins approved a major
modification to Urban Estate’s Land Use Code at Sunrise Ridge approving the following:
1. Increase density to 2.7 units per acre.
2. Reduction of street frontage on Lots 6 and 7 as they were below minimum standard.
3. Side yard setbacks of Lots 1,2,4,5, 7 and 10 to minimums of 10’-15’ (Shown on
overall site plan).
Major Modifications were granted as proposed because they were deemed to promote the
general purpose of the standard and diverges from standard were considered nominal
and inconsequential.
Construction of duplexes or pair housing have been completed or are in construction on Lots
1,2,3,4,5,9 and 8 as allowed by Major Modification and illustrated by enclosed Sunrise Ridge
Estates, Phase 1 Overall Site Plan.
Variance – In August of 2012, all items not complying with Urban Estate’s Land Use Code
were identified and included with Major Modification Application. Unfortunately, the rear yard
set back on Lot 7 was inexplicably not included with items outlined, thus requiring variance
request.

APPEAL # 2797
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 335 E Foothills Parkway
Petitioner/Owner: Carolyn C. White, Stephanie So, and Robert Walter
Zoning District: General Commercial (C-G)
Code Section: 3.8.7(D)(5)
Variance Request:
The variance would allow the movie theater at the Foothills Mall Redevelopment to increase the square
footage of sign allowance from 495.9 square feet to 639.46 square feet to display an additional 11 posters
at 13.37 square feet each; along the base for the north wall that faces an internal drive.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approving the variance request to allow an additional 143.56 square feet of sign allowance,
with the condition that the additional allowance is only for poster cases on the north wall; each being 4.58 feet
in height and that the poster cases are located at the base of the building.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
The Foothills Mall Redevelopment was approved in 2014. This site approximately encompassed over
74 acres of land, 25 buildings and a mix of uses. One of the uses included is a movie theater.
The movie theater is a standalone building that sits on the southeast portion of the site. The main
entrance of the theater (north side of building) fronts an internal drive, and a main entrance to the mall
is on the opposite side of a rectangular open area.
The movie theater lot does not front a public right-of-way; therefore, the sign allowance is based on the
length of one side of the building. In this case the building wall is approximately 295 feet in length. The
code allows 2 square feet of signage for 200 linear feet in building and 1 square foot in signage for
every 1 foot in length above 200 feet. The movie theater sign allowance is 495.9 square feet.
Although, no sign permits have been issued for this site, the applicant has illustrated their intentions for
signage in their application for the variance.
The allowable sign area used to permit is:
• Individual letters 5 feet in height that read CINEMARK; individual letters 7 feet in height
that read XD; and a poster case 4.58 feet in height, all on the north wall, that total 275.05
square feet in size.
• A cabinet sign 7 feet in height that reads XD EXTREME DIGITAL CINEMA and a poster
case 4.65 feet in height, both on the west wall, that total 126.14 square feet in size.
• A poster case 4.65 in height on the east wall that totals 30.4 square feet in size.
Appeal # 2797 - Page 2
• 2 poster cases, each 4.65 feet in height, on the south wall, that total 60.8 square feet
in size.
The total of the above signage is 492.39, which is under the allowed 495.9 square feet. All the poster
cases are placed at the pedestrian height (base) of the building.
Additionally, this site is not in the residential sign district, but is in the Transit Oriented Development
Overlay zone.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), Staff recommends approving the variance request to allow an additional
143.56 square feet of sign allowance, with the condition that the additional allowance is only for poster
cases on the north wall; each being 4.58 feet in height; and are located at the base of the building.
In doing so, Staff finds that:
• The granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public good.
• The request is for additional poster cases that are located on the north wall, which face
an internal drive.
• On the north wall, the cases are located at the base of the building, which are difficult to
be viewed from any public right-of-way.
• The poster cases are sized to be viewed by patrons visiting the site.
Therefore, the variance request will not diverge from the standard but in a nominal, inconsequential
way, when considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the purpose of
the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.4.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Appeal #2797.

RE: Variance from Standards for Cinemark Signage at Foothills Mall
Dear Zoning Board of Appeals:
Carolynne C. White
Attorney at Law
303.223.1197 tel
303.223.0997 fax
cwhite@bhfs.com
This letter is in supplement to the previously submitted application for Modification of Standards
("Application") for the signage of the Cinemark theater ("Cinemark") at the Foothills Mall in the City of Fort
Collins ("City"), submitted on behalf of Walton Foothills Holdings VI, LLC, the redeveloper and owner of
Foothills Mall ("Developer"). Because of Cinemark's unique location on the Foothills Mall property and its
commitment to operate a world class theater, certain variances are needed from the sign standards in the
City of Fort Collins Land Use Code ("Code"). This Application is submitted pursuant to Section 2.1 0.2 of
the Code. We request approval of the requested variances by the Zoning Board of Appeals.
I. Background
As part of the Foothills Mall redevelopment, Cinemark's new location will provide a first rate experience for
its patrons. Some of the exciting theater features and technological advancements include Premier
Seating in NextGen auditoriums and Xtreme Digital Cinema in the XD auditorium. In order to communicate
these latest concepts and characteristics, some modifications are needed from the signage standards at
Section 3.8.7 of the Code. The proposed signs have been designed to provide a unified, aesthetically
pleasing image for the new Cinemark theater, as well as to improve wayfinding.
Cinemark's typical sign package for theaters around the Country features more and larger signs. However,
the Developer has worked with Cinemark to scale back the proposed signage to respect the City's
aesthetic preferences, while still allowing Cinemark to share its story and brand. Although the originally
proposed signs have been reduced in number and size, the square footage continues to deviate from the
amount permitted under the Code. We believe these deviations are required to ensure Cinemark's
success at Foothills Mall. Further, the proposed signs do not include any compromises in quality of
materials or design, which will minimize the potential for any negative visual impact resulting from the
deviations from the Code.
In conformance with Section 2.1 0.2 of the Code, Cine mark and Foothills Mall met with City staff on January
13, 2015 for a concept review. Following receipt of staff's comments, the design team further revised the
proposed signage to reduce the degree of deviation from the Code, reducing height and square footage
wherever possible without reducing the effectiveness of the overall project.
II. The Proposed Signage Meets the Code Criteria for a Variance from Standards

b) For that portion of a building frontage which exceeds two hundred
(200) feet in length, the maximum sign area permitted shall be
equal to one (1) square foot of sign area for each linear foot of
building frontage length over such two hundred (200) feet. The
sign area permitted hereunder shall be in addition to the sign
area permitted under (5)a. above.
(c) In no event shall the total sign allowance for any property be less
than one (1) square foot of sign allowance for each linear foot of
lot frontage.
(d) In no event shall more than three (3) street or building frontages
be used as the basis for calculating the total sign allowance as
permitted in subsections 5(a) and 5(c) above, inclusive.
(6) For the purpose of this Section, the sign allowance shall be
calculated on the basis of the length of the one (1) building frontage
which is most nearly parallel to the street it faces. If a building does
not have frontage on a dedicated public street, the owner of the
building may designate the one (1) building frontage which shall be
used for the purpose of calculating the sign allowance. If the only
building frontage which fronts on a dedicated street is a wall
containing no signs, the property owner may designate another
building frontage on the building on the basis of which the total sign
allowance shall be calculated, provided that no more than
twenty-five (25) percent of the total sign allowance permitted under
this Article may be placed on frontage other than the building fascia
which was the basis for the sign allowance calculation. In all other
cases, the sign allowance for a property may be distributed in any
manner among its building and/or street frontages except that no
one (1) building or street frontage may contain more sign area than
one hundred (100) percent of the sign area provided for by (5)(a)
through (5)(c) above, inclusive.
3.8.7 (F) Measurement of Signs.
(1) The area of signs with regular geometric shapes shall be measured
using standard mathematical formulas. Regular geometric shapes
shall include, but not be limited to, squares, rectangles, triangles,
parallelograms, circles, ellipses or combinations thereof.
(2) The area of signs with irregular shapes or of individual letter signs
shall be the entire area within a single continuous perimeter of not
more than eight (8) straight lines enclosing the extreme limits of the
sign.
(3) The total measured area of a sign shall include the area of all writing,
representation, lines, emblems or figures contained within all
modules, together with any air space, material or color forming an
integral part or background of the display if used to differentiate such

LEGAL NOTICE
Council Liaison: Gino Campana
Staff Liaison: Noah Beals
LOCATION:
City Council Chambers
300 LaPorte Avenue
Fort Collins, CO 80521
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of a request for a modification of the Zoning Code of the City
of Fort Collins.
The procedure for a person requesting a modification of the Zoning Code is to make application and
appear before the Zoning Board of Appeals. This Board has been established to hear cases, where:
(1) by reason of exceptional situations or circumstances, the strict application of the regulation would
result in peculiar and practical difficulties or exceptional undue hardship upon the owner of such property;
(2) the proposal will promote the general purpose of the standard for which the variance is requested
equally well or better than would a proposal which complies with the standard for which the variance is
requested; or (3) the proposal will not diverge from the standards of the Land Use Code except in
nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, provided that the
granting of a variance would not result in a substantial detriment to the public good.
A variance of code sections:
has been requested by:
for described property:
Zoning District:
3.8.7(D)(5)
Carolyn C. White, Stephanie So, and Robert Walter
335 E Foothills Parkway
U-G
The variance would allow the movie theater at the Foothills Mall Redevelopment to increase the
square footage of sign allowance from 495.9 square feet to 639.46 square feet to display an additional
11 posters at 13.37 square feet each; along the base of the north wall that faces an internal driveway.
This item will appear on the Zoning Board of Appeals agenda as Appeal Number: 2797
As an adjacent property owner, your input would be appropriate in the consideration of this variance
request.
The hearing on this appeal will be held at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 12, 2015 in the Council
Chambers at 300 LaPorte Ave. Those interested may appear at this meeting, or if unable to attend may
submit comments in writing. Meeting sites are generally accessible to handicapped persons. If you are
disabled and need assistance to participate, please call (970) 221-6760.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact Noah Beals, Senior City Planner-Zoning at
(970) 416-2313.

APPEAL # 2773 Extension Request
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 730 Grouse Circle
Petitioner/Owner: Clifford Hart
Zoning District: Low Density Residential (R-L)
Code Section: 4.4(D)(2)(c)
Extension Request:
Appeal 2773 was approved September 11, 2014. The approved variance was to allow an addition to the house
to be built 5 feet into the required 15 feet rear yard setback. The proposed addition is a 3 season one story
room addition.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
An applicant has 6 months, from the date the variance is granted, to obtain the required building
permit. Within that 6 month period the applicant can request an extension, for an additional 6 months,
to obtain the required building permit. The Zoning Board of Appeals can grant the extension request if
they find that the applicant has shown good cause for the extension.
This request is based on the site plan and elevations that were provided during the original approval of
the variance on September 11, 2014.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
